My Thoughts On Twitter Changes... [Voicing Frustrations]

            I have been a part of Twitter since the mid way through The Video Projects Team under TVProjectsTeam I think the original of TVPTOfficial. Then ChrisBOnTheWeb account which was under EMPOfficial when Entertainment Man Productions existed back then which was the same account "ChrisBOnTheWeb" had up to a week ago almost since leaving the platform. Reason behind that was unknown and I was going to talk about it on a stream back on Sunday last week (a week ago) but I fell ill and I ended up cancelling the stream because of it. The reason is I couldn't see Tweets as there is a limit of tweets you can see per day and same with the amount of Tweets and DM's you can send on the platform too.

           Now the logo has been replaced with X and to be honest I do not think it is fair to people who cannot afford the check mark and what not to have restrictions and I thought this was suppose to be free for everyone and it isn't even that anymore and I just couldn't be on the platform anymore. So my account is gone, deleted. I know a few of you we're not happy with my decision to leave but it is what it is that is my choice for my community but still on Facebook and Instagram, have my Discord server that is what matters to me. Anyways that is the post for today I will talk to you all tomorrow for another post.

Food Review [07-30-2023]

               I got 4 different reviews within one blog.First Alton's. I went there twice within 12 hour span. First time had a French Onion Soup which was fantastic with a Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Bacon which was amazing as well. 10/10 for that meal. This was the night of the Bison's game. Then the next morning, I had pancakes which was a ton of them like 3 in a stack if I remember and was nice and fluffy and really delicious! I of course smothered it in Maple Syrup as I always do with pancakes with an orange juice to start my morning off. of course 10 out of 10 again. Then on our way home as I may have mentioned it previously last week on one of my blogs and I had Pasta Bellagio which was fettuccine with bell peppers and I was able to have it plain and I didn't know that or shrimp or chicken, I didn't know I was able to have it plain but chose Chicken. Also came with that soup I had which was cabbage soup with a polish sausage in it or some kind of sausage in it. I mentioned last week as well but I could of had the chicken one with rice in it for soups if I wanted to but chose it this way. Another 10 out of 10 for that dish.

            Now also on the way we stopped for a cookie and drink and Wendy's and apparently the girl serving us could only do one pot at a time which was really dumb and her attitude was not very good and the comment she gave me a comment about how its gonna be hard to eat the frosty and I already knew that. It wasn't necessary to make a comment honestly. If I knew the location I would of reported her but I do not know New York that well but I understand she was having a bad day but the attitude and comments wasn't necessary. I would give that experience a -5 and if I am ever there I will not go to that location if there is a next time. Don't worry I am not turned off Wendy's up here in Canada, I promise you that. That is the post for today, will talk to you all tomorrow.

            Another week has gone by and time for some updates: 

 Power Rangers Movies: It has been long wait but I finished up at 2 out of 3 power rangers movies with Larry. He had no clue till 2 days prior, I was really going to keep it a secret till the day of but I couldn't contain the excitement honestly.  

Blogs: I have all blogs done for this week and tomorrow and Monday's blog. Pretty much I am on a role for blogs and don't wanna stop as long as ideas are there I may as well try and blog everyday if I can if not then stick to the normal schedule.

Entertainment Man Podcast: So I have not wasted time and already have been setting up interviews and already have one booked for the upcoming week so I am back to the interviews again. 

Power Rangers Seasons: So the season have been put on hold for now and the upcoming week I will be working on the seasons again next week as things start to settle down for me as it is massively chaotic right now at the moment. I will get to it this week at some point.

USA Trip Day 7 and Trip Home

        So here we are the final day of activities before the trip home back to Ontario, Canada. Anyways my parents and I went to Pennsylvania Trolley Museum and was a fantastic experience. The staff was wonderful and very knowledgeable with the history of Pennsylvania Trolleys.  We got to go on car 78 to their static display barn and have a 20 minute tour of their barn. We got the ride onto another loop in their museum plus a bonus trip back to their barn to see where car 66 was but was on a different loop and found out where they were, just about to depart so that was most definitely a BONUS trip! This is why I said this was the best experience ever. They went above and beyond and my dad got a picture of the Terrible Trolley that was painted with Steelers colours and is being restored to the original colours again as we got to go into the shop and see what they were working on. Again big thank you to the staff and volunteers there for giving us a fantastic experience.

            So now we travelled up to Syracuse and stayed in a hotel for one more night before heading home. The Wednesday the 19th, we travelled back up state through 1000 islands which is beautiful and would love to do a cruise through that one day through Kingston Ontario and home. We arrived home at 230 pm EDT and I just jumped on the computer as I needed a break before unpacking and still haven't put everything away even a week later. Anyways that is the post for the day I will talk to you all tomorrow for a review.

USA Trip, Days 5 & 6

         Days 5 and 6 consisted me travelling to Pittsburgh and was in the nicest hotel and casino there and was close to the River and also the Pittsburgh Steelers Stadium where the football team plays which is my dad's team and as you all know I'm a Packers fan, there is a picture of me with thumbs down LOL. As the crime rate is bad in the city we ate in the hotel and was worth it, had a hot ham sandwich with honey mustard, we delicious! Also got to go play at the casino and gamble a little bit and won the first time I ever gambled at a casino so was worth it. I tried a second time and went bust but oh well I won the first time around.

    The next day we took a side trip to West Virginia which was like half hour from Washington, Pennsylvania which I will get to tomorrow. Anyways we went to Oglebay where there is flower beds after flower beds. Really beautiful state. Wish we had more time down there to explore. The folks there were super friendly and anywhere in the US they've been great minus the Wendy's experience which I will talk about tomorrow. Lady that stopped to chat with us was really surprised we came so far from Canada to visit West Virginia. Anyways I got some souvenirs from there including a West Virginia Mountaineers which is their University there so nice to have that. Anyways we travelled back to PA and I hope you guys enjoyed this and I will talk to you all tomorrow for the final 2 days of the trip.

USA Trips Day 3 & 4!

            Day 3 we headed to Buffalo New York with a stop in Niagara Falls, NY which we have some found memories of Niagara Falls NY as we've been there for Hockey tournaments in the past. Anyways we went to Buffalo and attended a Bisons game as you can see on the right hand side they are indeed the affiliate triple A team to the Toronto Blue Jays. Was a fantastic time and was up close enough to their mascot Buster T Bison. He wasn't too far off from where we were sitting and honestly we were several rolls from the bottom actually and behind the Bison's dugout. 

        Day 4 we headed to Ohio to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Was really awesome and a lot to see and learn about and I actually learned about the early years of Rock and Roll and the history how rock began it's journey it was fascinating to learn the history and gave me a ton more respect for rock music. Small note we found where the Cleveland Browns NFL football team plays by accident as it is literally neighbours to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Anyways that is Days 3 and 4 of my trip, have a great rest of your day and I will talk to you all tomorrow for Days 5 and 6!

USA Trip Days 1 & 2 !

            With all the bad news out of the way, I want to talk about my trip with my parents. Days 1 and 2 was basically time in Niagara Falls Ontario, went mini golfing times 2. There was two courses, easy and hard to do so that was a ton of fun. We checked out all the different rides and the Ferris Wheel was really cool. Also got to see the falls all lit up but was on Day 2. 

     Also  went to the Butterfly Conservatory and saw an array of beautiful butterflies that my niece would actually really love. Was worth the money and visit. Also we took a drive up to Niagara on the lake and went to the town was nice to get out there and I tried Lavender cream rub on my knee which worked well and the pain was less then it was from all the walking I did there. Anyways I will talk to you all tomorrow for Days 3 & 4 and little note end of the week updates will be on Saturday this week for a change but talk to you all tomorrow.

A lot of Changes With ChrisBOnTheWeb!

           Changes continue to be made with ChrisBOnTheWeb. I have spoken about it on stream yesterday on Facebook. As you know I have announced yesterday that I am leaving Twitter after 3 days and now it is 2 days to go and I am officially leaving as of 6 pm EDT Wednesday this week. This means you can only find me on several platforms: Facebook Fan Page, Instagram, Linkedin & of course the Discord Server which I am going to be really super active on there moving forward. 

            I think it is just for the best for me and my brand to leave the platform all together, just not finding the platform to what it use to be and plus the changes on how much we can Tweet throughout the day and now sending DM's is going to have a restriction too? Nah uh, no thank you. Also for the OG's who have been following me a long time, since the beginning, you may remember I was closing in on 4k in followers but that fell apart and lost just over 1000 followers the the span of the last 7 years. The platform is just going downhill and I feel like the growth is there and Facebook and Instagram has grown a lot so I rather focus on my time and energy on that platforms that is growing. A lot of you have supported my endeavour on this change and I will talk to you tomorrow and will be talking about my trip away with my parents.

Trying to resolve problems in the community...

                When I left the community was starting to fall apart again and I lost a members of the community and I understand my content isn't always for them. But also there has been a ton of drama in the community and coming home I knew I would have to get my hands dirty right away! I have a lot to do with the team to assure this never ever happens again.  First thing I need to did was getting rid of the group, was becoming too much really. First thing I did was update the team page, then the schedule page, then the Entertainment Man Podcast. Pages that have needed to be update are now updated now. I am going to be more firm and not unban anyone that we ban to not allow them back in the community as I have been too nice with giving too many chances to certain people. I keep saying yes to everyone and I need to learn to say NO sometimes.

         With the site now up to date, I can focus on getting more interactive with the community and today I will be streaming to both the Facebook and Instagram pages seeing if anyone pops up but excited to be doing updates maybe talk vacation wise. Then Sunday I am off for the day as the studio is closed for the day as it is now my normal day off. I need a break to play Minecraft or any of the video games I own. I actually worked a bit here and there the past 2 days with breaks for video games as I am easing myself back into the hardcore work I need to get done. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all on Sunday, have a great rest of your weekend.

Why Did The CBOTW Show Stay Audio ONLY?

             So we're back to The CBOTW Show Audio ONLY and the reason is because of YouTube unable to verify it even the text apps don't work with the platform anymore which really sucks and I never once actually verified any channel whatsoever. Only one I own is Entertainment Man Podcast from January of 2022. I have not tried to have a channel since last summer with the gaming and live stream channel I once owned but not anymore and it's been about a year since I had that channel technically. 

              So we have decided or I have had to make the split decision to stick to Audio ONLY for now and maybe eventually return to YouTube for another project perhaps or maybe not but correction was end of June 2022 the last channel I ever had so that's a bit ago since it happened and it's been a while since a new channel has popped up but who knows. So tomorrow I am going to talk about what is the current stuff going on with The CBOTW Show as it has been long awaiting for the announcement to what is going on with this podcast moving forward so I will talk to you all tomorrow about that.

I'm Loving the New and Improved CBOTW Studio!

            CBOTW Studio is always evolving and improving things and as you guys know, I have actually started to changing things around the studio. The old lights that brightened up the space which really wasn't that bright to be quite honest but with the ring lights and I said lights meaning 2 of them, one for my end and one for Larry's side but it is definitely an improvement from what we had originally had in this studio and even Bri has told me it's a major upgrade to what we have in here before. 

            I finally did a tour as you guys know of the new and improved studios and you can see the setup and how it looks but definitely is a big major update and was long coming. When I said that, I was planning on the changes the last few months as I was eyeing these ring lights for a while at Staples and with it been on sale, at 39 dollars and 57 cents it was worth the investment and I always look for sales so it helps. Anyways that is the post for today, have a great weekend and talk to you all tomorrow!

Car For Sale 2023 is buggy sometimes....

             As you may know I have been playing Car For Sale 2023 and have ran into issues, gambling too much at the black jack tables in the game to a point of the game freezing up and not letting me click around. However I am able to save it but sometimes going back into game renders impossible and I have to force it closed and re-open it but it definitely saved after having a few glitches with it not saving the actual game but seems to be resolved.

         Remember it is still in early access and I have thought about deleting it till it is more stable but I am sticking to it regardless and it is fun but I need to learn to budget my funds a bit better... lol. I am a tad little bit reckless and maybe after I am home, I will do a formal review on a few of the games I have gotten down the road but for right now that is the post, I will talk to you all tomorrow for another blog post.

- Goat Simulator: I play it from time to time and probably a game that will not be streamed when I start to stream more. 

NBA 2K23: I do play it and not sure if I will stream it on YouTube, just concerned about copyright with the music and getting my channel shutdown but I do not plan on monetizing my channel anyways!

- Minecraft: There is some loose ends I want to finish up with the server before I call it wraps with the video game all together as I am planning to stop playing unless it's a modded Minecraft. 

- Spelunky 2: I want to try and play the game on stream and get further as I have struggled.

- Stardew Valley: I want to continue and get more achievements on the game, a lot of things I need to work on with it.

- Teardown: Fun game but will be playing it off stream on my own time.

Changes while I am away!

           As you know I will be away from CBOTW Studios with family yet again which means changes and here are those changes

End of The Week Updates: I will not be doing end of the week updates once again for both this Friday and the following Friday as well so this means the lack of updates will not be there for a while, for at least now. 

Entertainment Man Podcast: I have pre-recorded 3 episodes of the podcast. Which also means no premieres whatsoever on the weekend while I am gone away. 

Discord/Facebook Fan Page & Group: You will see more of Brianna then me as again I will be away and not around for a week to week and a half. She will be the next in command along with Larry as well. 

The CBOTW Show: I will be recording after I get back on some Full House Recaps as I want to get started with it but have enough on my plate right at this moment so it will have to wait till I get back.

          That is the changes while I am away and it isn't much but I will cover the full content schedule tomorrow on the blog so have a great rest of you day and hope you will checkout the blog tomorrow.

Will be clipping from the episodes when I get back!

               When I get back I will starting to post up clips again on YouTube and Tiktok mostly and yes I have my podcast on Tiktok now and has become a thing with my podcast now so it will be on that platform as well. I may at some point post it to Instagram from time to time but I highly doubt it actually. Social Media will be for updates mostly but making the effort to clip episodes and yes I will be trying out YouTube Shorts but I didn't like the fact I got dislikes for something that's clipped from my episodes I put out there and I always linked but at this point I don't care about the likes and dislikes really.

               So Shorts and TikTok's will be posted weekly unless I have more then one clip but in retrospective it will be a weekly basis. I noticed I got subscribers from the shorts on YouTube I know that for a fact so it did help. I wanna up my shorts and clips moving forward to improve things on there. I will let you guys know when I plan on uploading things and they will be all new posts but that is the post for today, "scheduled" posts will start going up while I'm away so I will talk to you all when I get back, enjoy the content I have set, remember the episodes of the podcast will not be going up on this website for right now. However have a great next week and a half and talk to you all soon!

Been Experimenting With My Podcast

               As you know it's a little over a year since the return to YouTube and has done so well. But you guys know I have been experimenting with the channel lately and premieres has become a weekly thing unless I am busy with my family but it has proved to be a success. I've noticed the premiere's of the podcast has peaked at 5 views in total thus far so this has proven a lot especially the last few months I have really been involved with the chat and my team has popped up on there from time to time. 

            Now it's been suggested actually by my assistant and Community Manager, Brianna for the topic side of things to up it to around the 30 minute mark and I am taking this information into a lot of consideration when it comes this decision and I will be making these changes when I get back from the States I will be applying this change to spread out the episodes to be a bit longer then it has been. Not only her but I feel like the premieres go way too fast so this is the next best thing for the podcast is to expand out on the length each and every week and maybe the Bonus episode on Audio ONLY should be pushed to 15 minutes. A lot of changes to be made when I return from holidays and I can say the creative are flowing and I can just keep on improving the show and production quality as I continue on with this. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow for the end of the week updates!

End of The Week Updates [07-07-2023]

             Another week has gone by and time for another end of the week updates! Without further ado here are the updates:

Entertainment Man Podcast: As I said yesterday premieres are going to be put on hold while I am not available/away. Also interviews will be pausing but I will be talking more about this Sunday as I am still figuring a few details out while I am away. 

Blogs: Blogs for the most part are done minus Tuesday's blog and still working on the final details for that post and then I will not have to do anymore blogs till I get back after my trip. 

Power Rangers Podcast (The CBOTW Show): As you know at the end of this month, Larry and I will be due to record the Beast Morphers but I do not see this being a reality and I came to reality with myself that I am biting off more then I can chew so we are backing away and taking a break from it till the fall. This gives me more time to work on it when I get back.

              So that is the updates and as I said this is the final end of the week updates till the 28th of July which is quite some time from now 3 weeks to be exact, I will talk to you all Monday, have a wonderful weekend and I will talk to you Monday.

Five Guys Burgers Food Review!

         So yesterday I got to go to Five Guys Burgers with my friend Eric who is also Alum from The Video Projects Team era from 2005 till 2010. I ordered a Bacon Burger, with pickles, onions, ketchup, mustard and relish on it. My usual condiments and items I want to have on a burger technically. Now what I thought it was a single patty but it was a double patty and I never asked for it whatsoever but I am not going to complain. It is pretty expensive place to eat if I remember it was around 16 dollars and a chunk of change but it was worth that money actually. Was worth getting actually. 

         Now the burger and a large drink was all I got, I do not even think I could down fries with the size of this massive burger. The other best thing of this was with the drinks you can get refills actually and I considered getting a refill for the road home back into town to meet our friend Terry but I felt like I was floating enough from the large drink I had but anyways, I give this burger a definite 10 all day and next time I plan on adding in the fries I go there. That is the post for today, I hope you enjoyed this and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Things Have Progressed Well

                   Since taking over as Community Manager as well as Assistant to Chris, things have improved greatly and the growth of the community has been up since I took over.  The fact we have put our foot down on certain things has helped and Chris has really gone with this clean, positive community vibes. It has been a mission he has actually wanted to follow and I can tell you it has really paid off the hard work he has to turn the community around after a rough last 3.5 years he's taken more control over things. 

                He has really stepped up as the boss and he's taken suggestions to heart listening to your suggestions. I like the open door for suggestions. This is truly the best community and the hard work and thought into this community has been amazing. I am blessed to be a part of this amazing community and if you need anything, you can always reach out if it isn't boss man answering I am always the second person to reach out about anything ChrisBOnTheWeb related. Thank you to Chris for allowing me to take over the blog for a few days and will see you all around the community.

I've been helping Chris on his Minecraft server!

             It is no secret Chris has been working on a project with his Minecraft server and preparations for the new building has begun. I have helped him remove dirt and stone to start digging the basement for the new office tower that is going on to actually blow up and play around with the TNT. While I am excavating the dirt he's building the protective wall in case him and his nephew decide to explode the entire building all the hard work for nothing but that's his choice. 

                  Probably take a while for us to excavate the dirt and stone and build that wall unit before we actually dig out the basement part of the building before the actual building starts to be built up. What I gather it will be 15 - 16 floors tall, the highest building he's built on there ever. I am happy to help him with this endeavor and getting it completed in a good timely fashion. It's just the prep work that goes into it this project. I will talk tomorrow on my last post as Chris will be back on Thursday for blog posts.

Introduction to YOUR new Community Manager

            For those who didn't know, my name is Brianna, Chris's Assistant and Community Manager for ChrisBOnTheWeb. More than likely you will hear from me first unless it's one of the podcast emails that he has for either Entertainment Man Podcast. If you've seen me in the Facebook group community or the fan page or even the Discord then that's where you can find me the most of the time.

            It has almost been a month since I have joined ChrisBOnTheWeb and never been so happy to be a part of this team, his team and things have progressed so well in this community since with the addition of Jeff as an intern that is getting ready for his debut as a podcast on this network which is truly exciting actually. We will not be talking a ton but there is talks in the works and not going to say what it is yet. Any ideas please let me know as I have today and tomorrow's post but will talk to you all on the next post.
