Change is always important for growth!

            I know the change with the newsletter became shocking news with the feature being removed all together. You know I hate taking a feature if it is either not read or used and the newsletter wasn't being read and I put my heart and sole into each update for the week. That is why, I wanted to go back to our old routes which you guys loved the End of the Week Updates post and it was popular and plus you do not need to sign up for anything to be quite honest. 

             Change is always important for growth and if it doesn't why fix it? The views on the website has been great and all but now my computer has started to slow down so I am figuring that part out but not what I am talking about change is part of our life and we are always facing the diversity of changes in our life, physical & mental health, @ home, work or school it is part of our day to day life. Anyways that is the post for today, thanks for reading, enjoy your day and as always talk to you all tomorrow!

I'm Sorry! I'm Back!

         I know, no blog yesterday and I'm sorry! It was a tough day for me as it would of been my grandma's 101st birthday. My mind was all over the place yesterday and I didn't really do a lot of work, just moping around the house, rarely in the studio itself minus to record 2 more gaming videos for a side project I am working on which has been a bit top secret but if you look through the social media you will find my secret channel and I am not saying in case trolls want to follow me but those who I have told, the channel is there and no face cam, just voice over work. 

         However, today I am back into the studio today working on things and will be slipping out for a few hours but today, I will be in and out of the studio today but getting things done slowly and checking a few things with shorts, getting blogs done throughout the week, working on Corner Gas as that will be coming up very soon! So I am staying on my toes especially with Entertainment Man Podcast I am trying to figure out the next topic and I will talk about that tomorrow as that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

We're Retired from YouTube for Good!

           That's right the title doesn't decieve you whatsoever... Still quite angry that friends of ChrisBOnTheWeb Media now former turned on us so quick yet they supported me over a year, so I am just done with YouTube, the trolls have ran me off once again and honestly I will explain the Spotify vs. YouTube podcast this weekend and may go off on a rant who knows but we're tired of the trolls, tired of the drama to a point I've started to call it Drama Tube and the fact I allowed one person back to find out they blocked me and my entire team on Discord, we're done. 

           Between the trolls and drama, we want 0 part of it and we are now fully retired from creating content. You are probably wondering what about certain channels, are you active as a user and the answer is YES. I do not make my name too public anymore and its different from CBOTW Media then you know and I am mostly watching and the occasional comment comes out but creating content wise, we're retired from creating content and have moved on to Spotify. Again, I will explain between Spotify and YouTube on Sunday's episode of Entertainment Man. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Reality TV Podcasts are done!

            For those who are in our little Facebook circle, The CBOTW Show- Reality TV Recaps has been scrapped entirely! Communication with the team behind the show lack luster so I am kind of taking this experience and flipping around to full focus on both "Entertainment Man Podcast" & "The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies" which I am going to and have already been calling it just "The CBOTW Show" even though the title of the podcast is different from how I say it. The schedule remains the same for right now Tuesdays with Bob & Thursdays with Larry which I have an announcement for it tomorrow @ 1 pm EST.

          We will be adding into The CBOTW Show "Dancing With the Stars Recap with both Mary and I" and maybe, just maybe I will let her take the reigns as host for a change and I will be the co-host but we will see that is later on in the year and if they renew the show for another season but I am sure it will be gotta think positive and look forward to it as this will be my second season watching it. So we have a plan in place and Saturdays is a spare day for posting up episodes and I can always remanuever the episodes with Larry to Saturdays if I need to but we will play around with the schedules as we see fits. Anyways, as always I will talk to you guys tomorrow!

What's the Plan This Week?

              This week, I am editing all the Corner Gas episodes to schedule it to post. This includes Audio ONLY as well. Nothing else else besides editing but getting Entertainment Man Podcast ready for the weekend but it will be a quieter week for me as I got a ton of things done already this week and will have a bunch of time on my hands and probably do some things that need to be done around the studio itself, including cleaning up the studio a bit and recording a tour of the studio updated as it's been a while since I have done one.

             So it is a bit of a lighter week unless something major happens but I doubt it to be honest with you all. If all goes to plan, maybe I will get a chance to stream a little bit I will, I do have updates for you guys and exciting stuff around the corner and I will answer questions about the news of the Reality TV Recaps being scrapped all together if you have any. I will cover it on the blog tomorrow explaining as best as I can with the situation and what this means for Dancing with the Stars Podcast down the long road in the future. Anyways that is the blog post for today and as always talk to you all tomorrow!

Discord Server done! Back on Threads!

           Well, well the weekend was productive from recording, to editing podcasts to re-building my Discord Community for the very last time which you can find it here: https://discord.com/invite/FQp2U7pNtj or on the left side of our page with all the other links as we have grown our social media a tad bit but glad to have Discord back into the loop of things. 

           Also Threads is back into the picture now http://www.threads.com/@cbotwmedia and we just want to get noticed more now that YouTube is out of the picture and we are focusing on our website and I will talk about that tomorrow but the more social the better. So the last several days, we have been busy with things and both are done and working on tomorrow's blog post about what the plan is this week to get finished Wednesday the YouTube thing then Thursday talking about the Reality TV Podcasts as well and finally Friday talking about the events we will or I will be at this year. So another busy week ahead of us. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.
