Taught My Community Manager How To Do HTML!

           I have been doing is mentoring my Community Manager, Kelsie, big shoutout to her especially keeping things afloat while I was off for the weekend and maybe I will do that once a month but that is not the point of this post but I have been teaching her how to do HTML code which is the basis on this website. I plan on teaching her the menu bar code and the CSS eventually as she's asked me how it is done and the website is built which I have no problem telling people. I really have her brother to thank as he helped build the first ever menu bar back in 2016 when the transition to podcasting full time was made. 

        So I even have given her the opportunity to try it herself on a notepad on her computer and I took the code and put it on a side test and how easy it works out for her. I even showed her what happens when you put a broken code the craziness it causes to all the text. So this way she knows what happens if you screw up the code like I've done hundreds of time and the fact I had to redo the entire code. I love teaching people things and one of the reasons this blog and Entertainment Man exists right now is to teach you what I know. Maybe I will teach you the basis in the coming weeks but that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

CBOTW Media is Focusing on 2 Podcasts

             With all the changes with ChrisBOnTheWeb Media, all 3 of us on the team have decided to primarily focus on Entertainment Man Podcast and The CBOTW Show. Things have actually done really well and why change things up at this moment? Like really? If it is working then there is no need for change. We wanna focus on continuing to producing both of these podcasts as it has really become something special to us and very very popular. 

             Plus I do have a ton of 10th anniversary stuff to plan for 2024 and that will be mainly my focus as well so I have a ton to do over the course of the next year to prepare for what is going to be a very busy busy year with podcasts, blogs, events and 10th anniversary but we have it all under control. Just take things one thing at a time that matters and I have my amazing team to help me out with everything. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow for another post.

End of The Week Updates [09-23-2023]

                           Another week has come to an end, it is time for another end of the week updates. Now Chris has been absent the last 2 days due to some mental health reasons but will be back hopefully on Monday. Here's what's been going on with ChrisBOnTheWeb Media:

Website: As I said this morning on a very long winded post of updates, Chris has changed the YouTube page to just "Entertainment Man Podcast" and evidently may be the only channel ChrisBOnTheWeb Media actually owns. Chris is fed up of the negative and trolls on the platform which was one of the reasons he quit. Which you can go back to yesterday's blog hence the reason I moved up the end of the week updates to this morning. 

Entertainment Man Podcast: With the 200th episode now wrapped up he can continue to create episodes and there will be no more YouTube Shorts nor he will not be doing TikTok no more as he's taken those both out of the equation and wants to focus on the main shows for right now. Also he's going back to the weekly shows on YouTube and audio and the every second week bonus episodes on every 2nd Thursday on audio only platforms.

The CBOTW Show: Despite him being off from the day to day operations this weekend, he's gotten back into Power Rangers and really putting the effort to getting it finished so they can officially record finally. 

            Finally Chris is currently under a messenger ban so he can actually answer messages on the Fan Page, so if you message the fan page I will be the one to answer the messages and should be back Thursday evening next week. If he needs more time off you will hear from me but enjoy your weekend and I will talk to you around the community.

Events & YouTube!

          As you may know Chris is M.I.A. right now and it's cause of a lot of problems and drama but I will not talk about it. However the insults to Entertainment Man Podcast's YouTube Channel is really getting to him. He's started to regret returning to YouTube after his first initial retirement. However he is going to monitor the comments and if this continues, he will 1) block you no chance to return 2) Turn off the comments for good. 3) Decide to leave YouTube and go back to Audio ONLY.

           Now with events wise he has pulled back on Toronto Christmas Market as he doesn't feel safe with the crime rate in Toronto right now however it is strange he kept the Royal Winter Fair on the list but that could also soon be off the list soon as well. I understand that and time will tell. Chris also mentioned to me that Tyrone is also up in the air as there hasn't been a parade since December 2019 before Covid actually started and if there is a parade, he will go but if not then he will be removing it. But that is today's post, I will be covering for him tomorrow. Not sure when he will be back but please stay tuned on the ChrisBOnTheWeb Social Media accounts and I will chat with you tomorrow at 11 am EST.

ChrisBOnTheWeb 10th Anniversary

             I know we had a solid plan with the 10th anniversary but that has now gone away, well not gone away it's been scrapped the entire plan that we have. I probably will not have a bloody schedule till January which is when we should be releasing the entire schedule publicly anyways. I did post it in the private Facebook group the entire schedule or Kelsie has but she removed it after the numerous of changes we made to the 10th anniversary. This is why we have to make sure we are 150% sure that this is the plan we wanna do moving forward and stick to the schedule. Don't forget we are still in the early planning stages of planning before 2024 comes around but should have it done by end of the year.

             So end of December for the schedule to be released on the group then January 2nd for the schedule to be released publicly on the website. I have spoken about it on the podcast once or twice that is being released this week and on the weekend. I have to remember that we need to go through all the details with the events of 2024 and have to remember to go through all the information before release the information. We might of jumped ahead of ourselves and we want to make sure we have everything perfect. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow for the end of the week updates.

The CBOTW Show is Struggling....

            I do not know what on earth is going on with The CBOTW Show. I've officially resigned from Power Rangers Podcast yet I'm still working on it in case things work out. Not sure what I did to my co-host as their normally on by now and starting to wonder and worry. I could just finish it on my own perhaps. That is always an option in the end to getting it finished and done and over with. We will see. There is other options for doing the other shows and people really enjoy the solo ones with me actually. 

         I wish I knew the answers to the problems in the content department of ChrisBOnTheWeb. I just cannot solve all the problems of ChrisBOnTheWeb Media in a day. Takes time and effort. I know I am fighting depression and struggling to get everything done and I just do not know how to get through all of these problems and workload that has piled right up from editing the podcasts to these blogs I am just way over my head with work. Plus 10th anniversary now backed up which I will address more tomorrow but thank you for reading this post and I will talk to you all tomorrow!

What's Going on With The Web Series Reunion?

               With The Entertainment Man Talk Show, well production has been on and off. Yeah it's 2015 - 2016 all over again. I have been feeling frustrated with YouTube as a whole. Well I have now scrapped the entire reunion special but there is plans for 2024 to still do it but as part of Entertainment Man Podcast. I think that would be the perfect fit, more of a perfect for this situation. Yeah I have moved on from The Entertainment Man Talk Show.

            Having my former team on my podcast to share their experiences with the series and what they are up to now years later on. There will be 3 of them, hopefully, maybe perhaps but we will see what we can come up with! So there is going to be a reunion of some sort just gotta work on it. Like I will be mentioning in my podcasts this week and weekend, podcasts are more my thing now. However always room for a reunion from time to time and plus I have said this before, 10th anniversary is coming up it is truly a perfect fit for the upcoming milestone year for us! 10 year anniversary as of January 1st, 2024 as I will be live on New Years Day and there will be something going on every week on the fan page.

Great Content coming out this week/weekend!

            This week is an exciting week. There is a ton of content both blog posts and Podcast wise! Tomorrow is the next episode of The CBOTW Show which will be going out at 1 pm EST. I know that podcast is very, very loved and a lot of love for the podcast is there especially the ones on my own. I know Larry and I haven't been very active with the ones with the both of us. But that is coming back soon. More details to come very, very soon, I promise!

This is to help anyone that works they can also listen to it so the 1 pm EST slot will be more open and there is the TikTok and YouTube shorts that actually go up but as for content, the afternoon is more open and I am sure I will have updates as I have been working in the studio lately. I have been cleaning up the studio preparing it for Larry's return hopefully soon. But awesome content is coming stay tuned for more. Hope you guys enjoy the two podcasts this week along with blogs I have to release this week and I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Nothing is active where it drops down yet and it will once we finalize the schedule for 2024 and hoping to drop the entire schedule by November 30th, 2023. Full details will be coming on Monday's blog post. 

Entertainment Man Podcast: I have recorded and now editing two podcasts both this Sunday and next Thursdays which will be both on Video (YouTube) & Audio ONLY platforms.

I Am All Over The Place... AGAIN!


               Again, I am not up to my usual standards when it comes to blogs, to podcasts, I am just not myself lately. I am all over the place honestly. I have... I am lost for words. From communication problems with my team to this, no blog today. This is getting way out of hand now. This has to change and fast. I have lost followers cause of no blog or content isn't on certain platforms. So yeah it's gotten really bad and this is where I am needing to take action before it is too late. 

            So moving, I have to start checking my list and I have a list on my desktop as you can see on the right hand side that is how I am tracking that needs to be done but I have spoke about this before in the past. However there is some tweaking to do if I am to get blogs ready for the next day then I need to actually do it the night before, meaning get it done, make it a priority. I've spoken about prioritizing on LinkedIn, this blog, the podcast... Pretty much anywhere. It is good to tweak the way you have your thinks to do and this is definitely a wake call for me. I want to thank you guys for reading today's blog and apologies for the lateness and promise to have the next one out on time tomorrow and moving forward.

I LEARNED communication is key!

            Last week I learned the hard truth that I felt like I just wasted my time mentoring someone to get their podcast up and running. However that blew up especially on the Discord community I have. Maybe this was an entire sign for me that it should just remained Kelsie, Larry and I perhaps? Maybe I grew CBOTW too fast once again perhaps. I don't think that was the case though, the point is I think this is a learning experience for me. What do I mean by this? I mean, yes I have been trying to communicate and this is something the remaining team I have to work on is communication a bit more. This is where being a Transformational Leader comes into play and I need to start working on communicating.

                  Do not forget it's just not me but it is also with the other party and they have to in return. Last week's incident has really inspired me to keep on improving things with ChrisBOnTheWeb and I have really come a long way since the start of August so it has shown and just going to keep on going. I am not going to let this bring down the positive vibes of the team and I am about the positive vibes not negativity and I have started to become a more positive and happy person. Anyways that is the post for today, I will speak to you all tomorrow.
