Change is Good! (Saying Goodbye to My Podcast)

             It is an end of an ERA fior Entertainment Man Podcast. I've been doing this show for 5 years, 6 seasons, 313 episodes, I felt like the show has gone stale, same old, same old week after week, show after show. I honestly wasn't feeling it anymore. It was time to say goodbye to it and move on from it. Luckily I have The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies and After Hours with Shane and Chris which I will talk about more this week after I chat with Shane with more about this.

             However, as the saying "All Good Things Must Come to an end" and it totally true! I've felt like this the right time and do not worry, I will not bring it back, cancel, bring it back, cancel like I use to with one of my YouTube Series I did back in the day. I look forward to what's next and the new project is ramping up nicely and information is coming soon. There will be more this week but that is the post for today and as always I am going to talk to you all tomorrow.

Double Episode coming tomorrow!

           I know there has been delays with The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies and I am working on it. That is why I am planning to do both today so this way I can get it done and move into the Snake for this weekend and along with Entertainment Man Podcast so I do have a plan and after this week, I will be not as involved on The CBOTW Show- Reality TV Podcast as that is Billy's domain not mine and I will be back to focusing on TV & Movies more with Larry & Bob.

          So the schedule will look like this: 

Tomorrow: 1 pm EST- The CBOTW Show: TV & Movies- Freakier Friday Audio ONLY

                  6 pm EST- The CBOTW Show: TV & Movies- The Simpsons; A Star is Burns Audio ONLY

Saturday:  6 pm EST- The Snake, Season 1 Impressions and Chat Audio ONLY

Sunday: 1 pm EST- Entertainment Man Podcast Audio ONLY

            There is the schedule and I promise you, it will be out on time this time around and we will make this right with you guys and that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Updates on the Shows [Podcasts]

           So there is a plan with the podcasts. However it will not be implementing slowly but surely I am undecided what the plan is for The CBOTW Show Podcasts which of the two will remain audio only and the other will be Spotify video. Here is what the plan is for right now:

Entertainment Man Podcast: Sundays, 1 pm EST- Audio ONLY Platforms

The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies: Tuesdays & Thursdays, 6 pm EST- Video/Audio ONLY

The CBOTW Show- Reality TV Recaps: Various Schedules, Survivor  49- Thursdays or Fridays w/ Billy & co-host to be announced. Audio ONLY (at the moment) Announcement is to come soon.

         That is the plan for right now, finalizing things for those shows and I will have more soon on the Reality TV Podcasts slowly getting things done for the shows and this expansion of our podcasts. Anyways that is blog # 1 out of 2 for today and I will talk to you all this afternoon!

Yes, I've Been Thinking About The Future.

             I have been thinking about the future and not with The CBOTW Show but more Entertainment Man Podcast has been my concern but I am going to continue on producing new episodes and interviews and guests seems to be the answer to the issue. But I do want to do solo episodes but interviews and guests have helped. I've noticed Entertainment Man & the CBOTW Show (both feeds) have done a ton better on Audio ONLY and that's good. I've been thinking of putting it back to just that but then what will happen to the channel? So you realize my dilemma.

            I promise this isn't me saying we're done with YouTube because we aren't, if we were, I'd be more obvious in the title of this post. We are just making room for improvement. The wheels are turning in my head and getting ideas and I just cannot reveal everything, not just yet. I kind of have a timeline for things. All I can say, as they say on Big Brother, "Expect, the UNEXPECTED." I will talk to you guys tomorrow!

Chris

Trying to take some time off in August!

               Once I finish up with 2 interviews and one collaboration on both podcasts, Entertainment Man Podcast (4 Interviews), I know a lot of interviews and I am not sure if it is 4 or 5. Then the collaboration with Bob but there will be filler stuff here and there. I am not really sure I will have time to not record so I do not know if I will get a break from interviews but I am going to keep on going. Once I'm on a roll then I'm on a ROLL! I mean it. Lately been on a good content kick lately and proud of the hard work I have put in!

                                However, yes a break is in the nearby future but going to start taking my Sundays off like I normally do and still got videos to do as I haven't been on the best of getting out for you guys but work in progress this week. I know it's old footage now as it's been a week or two now but this week during the week there will be a recording session and maybe you will see it live on one of the days I am LIVE in the studio perhaps? Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Chris

Another Big Week Ahead of Us!

            We have a lot happening this week here at the studio as we finish up major project to the hiatus of the series till next year and you know which one to a new series, Corner Gas which the talks have resumed and hopefully by the end of the week we will be scheduling a session to record. Also recording what will be another huge episode talking more about my diagnosis with Autism, PDD (Persuasive Development Disorder) and will put together a great episode talking about it. I feel ready to talk about this. 

            Also work a bit on other episodes, Happy Gilmore 2 and working on Ghostwriter and Corner Gas. Lots happening in such a short time but things are starting to look up for us and excited for both shows airing Sundays for Entertainment Man and Tuesdays & Thursdays for The CBOTW Show. We are on a full schedule moving forward. I'm sure my assistant mention it but that will do for me today, I will as always talk to you all tomorrow for another post!

Chris

Feeling Good Moving into August!

            As you all know, The CBOTW Show is adjusting to the new schedule and with August approaching fast, I feel good about moving into a new month! With the episodes increasing fast, I feel like things will be hectic from week to week. However, I think things will run smoothly once we get the hang of the schedule but it will be a lot more happening on our network and will be a ton of fun to do as well. In fact I am planning to work on Corner Gas all this weekend and if I can split it into 3 days that would be a bonus and clutch so I can book in Bob. 

           Also there is a collaboration with Isaac from Fun Football Podcast & eventually he will be returning to Entertainment Man Podcast as an update episode so that is very very exciting indeed. I think once we get on the move, we will indeed be ready for the final element of the network and that is actually adding in the 3rd podcast the Reality TV Podcasts. I know we are growing and fast! Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Podcasts (Breakdown of all shows!)

              I know, I've been doing a lot of thinking, especially with the YouTube situation and I am not quitting YouTube but this is something I've been wanting to blog about for the longest time now. So here is the breakdown of all shows, the YouTube and/or Audio ONLY Platforms:

Entertainment Man Podcast, Sundays @ 1 pm EST [YouTube/Audio ONLY] Remains the main show on Sundays as it continues to be popular show every week.

The CBOTW Show- TV & Movie Podcast, Tuesdays @ 6 pm EST [YouTube/Audio ONLY] Ghostwriter series will be in this time slot for both Larry & I, unless we are on a break for a small summer break, i.e. Larry's on vacation but I more than likely will add in my own episode.  

The CBOTW Show- TV & Movie Podcast, Thursdays @ 6 pm EST [YouTube/Audio ONLY] This slot will be for Corner Gas when we launch this podcast with the one and only Bob Lement. 

The CBOTW Show- Reality TV Podcast, Fridays @ 1 pm EST [Audio ONLY] This will be the place for the Survivor Recaps with Billy and I and I am strictly the co-host and hope Billy will edit the episode. I look forward to being a co-host for a change. 

          These are the shows we are currently have on our network and going to try and push Traitors Canada today to have a host for that one possible a co-host if possible. That is the post for today folks, as always I will speak to you all TOMORROW! 😁

Chris

Unsure About The Future!

             I am really unsure with Entertainment Man Podcast to be quite honest. Views have been not the best lately and been putting out fire content each week, but maybe getting rid of the bonus episode wasn't the best decision but the weekly episodes, I honestly think I need to do 30 minutes each and every week. You guys seem to like the longer episodes and the same with The CBOTW Show for both of the shows. 

           It is OK to feel unsure about the future as Doc Brown from Back To The Future you do not know what the future brings, make it a great one! Which is true and I do not even know what made me think of this entire quote but so true. I've been pressured to keep Entertainment Man Podcast and I admit it wasn't the best decision and I've been frustrated with the viewership as it's not been the best on YouTube and the dislike and idiot trolls, I cannot handle this anymore.

Happy Canada Day [What's on The Schedule this week]

           First and foremost, Happy Canada Day everyone! The next thing I would like to chat about is what I would like to try and accomplish this week!

- Blogs for the week, obviously that is needed to be done first and foremost and the reason I actually worked on Canada Day.. I know.. lame! I should of taken the day off but I didn't, but tomorrow I will. 

- Entertainment Man Podcast, Getting two more episodes written and recorded and if there is an interview, then I will record, edit them and put shorts together.

- The CBOTW Show, This is something I want to get done all together and try and finish up Ghostwriter, season 1 so Larry and I can start recording as much as we can. Once I'm done watching Season 1, I will start working on Corner Gas... FINALLY!

          At this moment there isn't a lot of things I need to get done just finishing up some loose ends on things this week getting things done for the week. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow. 

Chris

Entertainment Man Podcast and The CBOTW Show is here to STAY!

           Both podcasts: "Entertainment Man Podcast" & "The CBOTW Show" is going nowhere anytime soon! We continue to strive to give you quality and good content every day of the week! The views have been doing really good and I appreciate each and every one of you that listen to our shows every week. 3 Shows a week there is a ton of episodes which is a lot of hard work and long hours we work on to give quality good content. 

         That is the main reason why we have made the decision to keep it going as it's the outpouring support that is keeping us on the air each and every week. I am not surprised that you guys want more from each show and we will keep on producing and putting amazing episodes out there. I want to thank you for the continuous support and please keep on supporting our company. As always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Chris

Thing's I'd like to Complete This week!

            There are a bunch of things, I need to get done this week and obviously I want to share and will make you guys excited what's coming up next for us!

Interview Prep for this week's episode: As Sara probably has said to you guys I have an interview with Dr. Shafer and I was on her show about a month and a half ago and I am so excited for this interview. There is another interview, I'm looking forward to the interview with Gilda at the end of July as well.

Working on the Discord Server: This is a new thing for us as we just returned to Discord since we ended the Facebook Group all together and was our decision to end the Facebook Group due to lack of activity and also drama. 

Website additions: As you know I've been wanting to separate the content schedule from the events and have a very cool idea involving the tables we have been using over the years and will take a bit of work but I think it will most definite look good and we can rotate everything as events pass. 

The CBOTW Show: The CBOTW Show is on the move again and been a couple of weeks since the last recording, maybe even about a month but I want to get back to it even with my open time.

Record a couple of videos: I want to record a couple of videos both for during this week, Second sit down Update Video, including fun little videos, a vlog for next weekend and of course the Motivational Wednesday videos as well. 

             There is my long list and I'm sure I will get them done in a timely matter and will take things one by one and go day by day at this time.  I will talk to you all on Wednesday for another blog post!

Chris

Back To The Grind!

           Since returning back to Ontario, I've been busy getting shows done I got two airing today, 1 pm EST the Audio ONLY version of Entertainment Man Podcast @ 1 pm EST & The CBOTW Show @ 6 pm EST. I've considered to do a second Entertainment Man Podcast on Wednesdays but sporadic episodes from time to time. Not every week, not every 2 weeks, not once a month but if I feel up to it and something I want to talk about I will post an additional episode on Wednesdays.

          For now I am also am recording a new episode this afternoon with Chris Champion and very, very excited to be doing this podcast as it is about something I love talking about and that is creating content. Anyways after that with the editing, I will be doing other things, working on Corner Gas episodes so I can book Bob onto the podcast soon. Anyways it is good to be back and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Chris

June will be busy!

             June will be a busy, busy month for us and here is why:

- Events: We have a couple of events and activities we are going to be attending, Peony Festival which is something we do on a yearly basis and a lot of fun. Also Attending Fiesta Week which is usually my yearly review on the food if I've not had it before. 

- Podcast interviews and Collaborations: I have a bunch of collaborations and interviews scheduled. I will start with Entertainment Man Podcast, still need to book Mary coming back onto Entertainment Man Podcast. Episodes with Nick and another with Chris either went up or will be going up on the platforms. Also June I have Dr. Shafer coming on my podcast which I was on hers end of last month to talk about my journey with Autism and how I am an advocate for people with Autism/Disabilities and Mental Health. I have one more podcast to book for the month of June as of me writing this which may have been updated since. Also June plus maybe July I will be having Izac from Fun Football Podcast to collaborate and talk about our favorite Bill Murray Movies. Also Mary from Mac N Cheese Podcast will be coming on The CBOTW Show to talk about and recap Mary Poppins. 

              There is the timetable or gives you an idea what we are up to in June and as always I will talk to you guys tomorrow.

Weekly Updates [05-17-2025]

                One word: "Busy." We have been very, very busy getting work done before boss man leaves for his out of province trip, we are really trying our hardest to get everything done as the coming week, things will be quieting down for the week. Which this means, there will be no Weekly Updates as we are working all of this weekend and possibly Tuesday but it depends on how far he gets but we are working on the long weekend. 

         I can picture what the plans are when he gets back home from his trip. I kind of know what the plan is after he's back but he's gonna take Monday and Tuesday to himself before getting back into the swing of things. So any questions on the social media will be answered by me so please do not hesitate to ask. There will be a post on Monday and I believe it is already written and ready to go out. I will speak to you all Thursday for more blog posts.

 

 Happy Victoria Weekend to our Canadian Fan Base!

Weekly Updates [05-02-2025]

                 First of all sorry for  the late post, so much chaos the last 24 hours, from my desktop computer acting up to the meltdown @ our studio from what I heard of with more tech issues with the computer software, we've had a stressful week but with a stressful week, comes great news from the home front.  What am I saying? Well, Chris got an email and I unfortunately cannot say yet as it's not confirmed but it's huge news for our community!

              The other  news is he has a sleuth of podcasts to edit and post up. It almost didn't happen this morning as the two boys had ran into tech issues last night. However that was rectified and they recorded 5! That's right 5! so 5 weeks of episodes on Wednesdays @ 6 pm EST. They are shorter episodes but they are planning to extend them in less than 2 weeks from now. He is recording Entertainment Man Podcast for this weekend and the weekend he returns from his yearly trip. He is starting to get everything together. Have a great weekend and talk to you all next week.

 

Sara

Weekly Updates [04-25-2025]

                  I am not sure what the plan is but we are planning to keep weekly updates for now. I am not sure what is going on but he wants to keep updates publicly. I think it is a different ideas he has he wants to explore the options between these updates and the newsletter but for the time being we will continue to create these on Fridays. I have a funny feeling he has a plan with both. I think we can do a bit more details with the weekly updates honestly. I will talk more about that as I have more updates.

             Moving along with the YouTube progress, we are getting there and constantly working on it to get it all finished up. As you know we are now a week out from when we finished uploading the older episodes of the podcast and now focused on new content. Also Chris has been working on Ghostwriter for next week's massive recording sessions as the dynamic duo are back together for an overnight. There is nothing else to report but we are making moves, he will be talking more about the coaching next week on Monday to start getting the clients through the blog and the following weekend we will do also a video as well. We have so many video ideas. Tuesday, I will be working on a blog post as a bonus and already been cleared with the boss as well. Anyways, Have a great weekend, enjoy this weather if it is nice out for you and speak to you all Tuesday.

 

Sara, Chief Operating Officer

Projects To Be Completed!

               There are some projects that has been put to the side and some that still need to be completed and here is the list:

1) Getting the old shorts re-uploaded- We hope to have it done by the fall at the most as I am trying to post the old ones 4 - 5 times on Sundays and Fridays which are our more freer schedule for content. 

2) Newsletter- We are trying to come up with the best way to create the sign up and a pop up to remind you guys to join our newsletter. It's been a while since I created a pop-up but that was only if you right click on the website. It is work in progress.

3) Is to label all episodes with the season and episode numbers- I realize it is not all labeled on the episodes and something that's been ticking me off seeing it from my phone on iTunes particularly. 

            Really it's not a lot to do but still things that are on our list of things to complete and we will get it done don't you worry. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Weekly Updates for 04-18-2025

                I have no clue when we are going into the newsletter phase of the website and doing away with the weekly updates and we know you love for the past decade and we are still working out how we can do both but small details how it will work out for the future. Chris has been working on editing the interview with Ken and he's hinted all week he was coming back onto the podcast and I never saw this coming till he called me and told me Ken was coming on this week and usually it's a week or two apart but this really made Chris excited and I've heard the episode and you guys will enjoy it Sunday, guaranteed. He's has hinted future podcasts with Ken and also Shane as well. He's really keeping ideas down on paper so he remembers. 

              After editing comes Ghostwriter work today and tomorrow and along with re-uploading and scheduling YouTube Shorts that needs to be put back up.  hoping to get at least 5 done before Easter happens. I've heard he's started to talk and discuss with some of the team on Corner Gas wanting our opinion how to approach it but it sounds like some movement is being made on this and hoping a May recording sesh is in the works and we can start utilizing the Friday slot too. Also Tuesday the interview Chris did with Jeff on Invisible Condition will be Live on 360tv.com, Facebook and YouTube. Also he's heard his interview that he did with Dr. Shafer will be up before April is done. Finally, I want to wish you all a Happy Easter, please safe travels to and from family and blogs will be returning on Tuesday but there is a possibility for a post from me on Monday.
