Producer Chris
Also known as: Producer Chris, PC
Producer Chris is the indispensable technical and creative partner behind Who Are These Podcasts. While Karl Hamburger is the face of the show, Chris is the engine room -- handling audio production, show prep, and the countless behind-the-scenes tasks that keep WATP running week after week. His role has evolved well beyond a traditional producer, as he regularly contributes on-air with sharp observational humor and quick one-liners that have earned him a devoted following among WATP listeners. Chris's on-air presence grew organically from his producer role. Early WATP episodes featured him mostly in the background, but his natural comedic timing and chemistry with Karl made it impossible to keep him off the mic. The "Easy for You to Say" series -- episodes focused on reading and mocking Stuttering John's notoriously bad book -- became some of the most beloved WATP content, largely driven by the dynamic between just Karl and Chris riffing together. Reddit fans have noted that despite not always getting the most direct airtime, Producer Chris's jokes and comments are "ALWAYS funny and on point," with many calling him their favorite co-host from the beginning. At WATP live shows, Producer Chris is a constant presence. He has appeared at events in Detroit (The Magic Bag), Nashville (City Winery), New York City, and other cities, serving double duty as both the technical operator making sure the audio works and a performing member of the cast. These live events -- which feature the extended WATP crew including Trucker Andy, Vinnie Paulino, Jenny Jingles, Lucy Tightbox, and other
