Not Making the best decisions...

          The CBOTW Show is more a TV Show rather then a Podcast. There is just so much going on and just been very concerned so I know this raises a lot of questions what is going to happen with collaborations and as a YouTube Series, we are planning to finish uploading Ghostwriter and may have made a mistake deleting a ton of the of the video versions so I am reuploading those and we will continuing to post the final 2 episodes as a podcast minus the Audio ONLY. 

         However 24 hours later, we reverted back to The CBOTW Show back to it's original origan and The CBOTW Show is back on the schedule but will remain on hiatus till everything is back up and running well and the audio only has been restored back and will be reuploading it to YouTube and the video versions will be up starting tomorrow.

I Finalized Everything Before my Trip!

             I for the most part have finalized everything and raring to hand over the keys to the company so to speak to Sara while I am away. I have everything in place for when I am away and excited to be going away. I know there was a lot of things to do but it is to keep you guys watching, reading and listening to our content while I am not around.

             I have checked several times to assure that everything is completed in a timely manner. Like the saying goes always double check your list or work before you consider it finished or completed. I hope you guys enjoy the next few days without me and any questions do not hesitate to reach out and Sara, Larry, Kevin and Billy will be able to help you. I will chat with you on Monday and don't worry I will enjoy time.

What If We Take a Break from YouTube Again?

             If we take a break, I promise you all that we will not be deleting our channel. We are beyond that as we have over 100 subs and do not want to lose our progress with the channel. The views have been fantastic and the overall amount is overwhelming on the love and support you guys given us, we do not want to take the channel away from you guys. So the channel probably go dormant if so but, yes there is a but, we are not planning to go away from YouTube at this moment as the momentum with the channel has been fantastic and we're on a roll with content. 

            That is the plan moving forward and I know, I've been approached about this with this question and I love these kind of questions actually and happy to address it even publicly on our blog. Anything you see in our social media accounts/YouTube and Podcasts, nothing is going to be deleted. Yes eventually if a podcast retires after so many seasons and episode it will stay up on there regardless. Anyways that is the post for today and I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Weekly Updates [05-09-2025]

                This week has been busy. As Chris mentioned he's done a massive changes to the website and has posted Our Team is listed on there. Community has: Schedule, Get Involved https://www.chrisbontheweb.com/p/get-involved.html and Archives; Services has the coaching services we are still offering because of trolls spamming the free 30 minute discovery call that has been removed. On Demand is now called Podcasts and the rest is the same. So this is big changes to the website and will take time for you all to get use to our site under it's new form.

            Other then that we've been editing episodes and recording other new episodes and editing those. Next week he has two interviews and he's trying to book at least two episodes in the week to get ahead with interviews which means he is open to booking interviews  but he would have to keep track which ones he records first and what not and I am going to help him with it. We are getting ready for his trip out of province and I have decided to actually take over for the blogs during the Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from May 22nd - 25th. I am proud to say things are now on the up and up. Enjoy your weekend and Happy Mother's Day to all the Mom's out there and I will be back next week.

What Happened to the Events on the Weekend?

            Well Saturday I wasn't in the right frame of mine and all I wanted to do was sleep in plus I wasn't feeling like fighting the busy crowd and we weren't sure we were able to actually get an actual parking spot as Maple Festival is a very popular event locally now so it is harder to go unless I take the bus out and maybe something I will do next time. I enjoy going to that event and the next one in Bowmanville will be in the fall as there isn't anything else. 

          Also usually on this day too we do the Doors open event locally in my city but we had my niece and nephew's 3 on 3 Hockey so a little more important to go to actually as family does come first before anything else. So the next event coming up for ChrisBOnTheWeb Media is the Peony Festival, locally here in my hometown. What I gather from our schedule of events for this year. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you tomorrow for another post. 

Chris

Preparing for my Trip out of Province!

           Between working on everything else, getting everything ready for tomorrow's massive recording, it's all hands on deck as this will be our last recording session till June at some point. So I will have more time to work on both Corner Gas for June recording session as Larry and I will be slowing down in the summer on recording sessions but not only that but getting things recorded, edited and scheduled for posting while I am away in Quebec for 4 days with my parents and other family members as well. 

          I go quick with blogs and will be easy to pump out posts on the website. Next thing is to record episode for the Sunday, shorts ETC all done. I will make sure everything is set up to Tuesday after I get back that Sunday. So after this week and I finish up editing Ghostwriter, I will be preparing all of next week on the upcoming holiday away as I need it honestly. I think I will get through it all next week in a timely fashion and have it scheduled. Not sure how but the website version will not be updated till that Monday (the day after) I return from the trip. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

I've taken on more in my role of COO

                      You may all know that I have taken on more as Chief Operating Officer then ever, I am working side by side with Kevin our Advisor and Moderator in our community in helping suggesting moderators as I see fit. That is only if we really to add mods to the community. We are a bit stingy with who we mod now and that's OK, we want to make sure we pick the right people.

                     Also I have been feeling off with the Community Director role and it was under my power, I terminated the role and don't worry Chris gave me the green light on the decisions and he is proud of me for taking on more in my role as COO of the company. I am all for change and so is Chris as it's been a rough last 6 months almost since I took over the Chief Operating Officer role as it was empty for two months. Our team now are working closer with each other and as Chris would always say "teamwork makes the dream work" and we are truly a shining example how hard we all work hard within this company. I will chat with you on Friday for the end of the week updates.

 

Sara

We're taking a different approach!

            Things haven't been panning out as we wanted to and I have made a executive decision with Chris's OK with it and we have actually terminated the Community Director role. So this means the team dynamics have changed a tad bit. We have someone who is familiar with our company and is a long time friend of Boss Man's from high school. We welcome Billy back as our Program Director and he oversees all the programs on our network. So welcome back!

             This means we are not planning to do anymore hiring but always room to add mods here and there especially on our YouTube Channel. We will need to start adding some and it is part of my duties to find some. This means a major turn around for us and change is very crucial for success. With Boss Man in the helm, we know we are going to be a successful team. I will speak to you tomorrow morning for the end of the week updates.

YouTube Older Long Form Content is Done!

              I do not know what to talk about when it comes to this blog as I am not an expert like Chris is but I do have some news, Chris has an announcement to make tonight across all of the platforms regarding to the older long form content. It is big news as he's been working at this for over a month now. He finished the older long form content finally! He pushed out the last 2 long form videos from the past and now we are to be focusing on newer content and continue to grow the channel. 

             Yeah it's been fun for us and you guys but time for new stuff! I've noticed the premieres been quite quiet and that's OK. I will let him explain it in the video he's doing today and what's next for the channel. But this is a step forward with the channel and this is my take on this. This opens the doors for a lot more. Not only that less stress for all of us. But as I mentioned still have the old shorts to post on Sundays & Fridays. I will talk to you @ 1 pm EST for the final blog of the week.

Weekly Updates for 03-28-2025

         Quite a busy week again as we worked on the podcasts and getting everything ready for this afternoon and Sunday afternoon as well. Today's The CBOTW Show is actually Audio ONLY, due to some of the subject matter but you can find it under the podcasts tab on our YouTube Channel so either way you guys all get content one way or another.  Once he is finished with Entertainment Man Podcast and getting shorts done he is working on Ghostwriter later on today and this weekend to assure he's ready for next Thursday's recording session. 

       I know it gets tricky when it comes to shorts and I know he has it all under control when it comes to it. I wonder how he juggles two episodes of The CBOTW Show & the weekly episode of Entertainment Man Podcast. Chris is amazing, I can say that. He works so hard on content regularly and always working on something and I am so proud of how the team has come with it's success. Enjoy your weekend and any questions about this do not hesitate to contact us in the contact page, social media and even the comments. We encourage the comments and I will chat again at the end of next week.

 

Sara, Chief Operating Officer

Little More About Me.

           You know who I am, my name is Sara, I am the CEO of the company. I have a bit of a extensive background in media like Chris has. I haven't been in media as long as him. I started at the age of 25, 5 years less then him. I was the COO of a company for 5 years, prior to this, I have worked in a radio office department as the Program Director, programming the music. I never was behind the mic much, maybe a few times. 

            Outside of of work, I like to game and I talked about it at the start of the week. I have two nieces and spend a lot of time with them when I am not at the helm of running this fantastic company. I love going for walks. Also Chris and I see each other quite often at the mall, we walk around have lunch monthly just to get an update on the podcasts as he's been working ever so hard on finishing. I love to read, watch TV Shows. Chris got me into Elsbeth, Matlock and The High Potential so him and I often jump on a call and watch together through Skype. Not much more I can tell you about me, except I use to live North of him and now one town over that takes 15 minutes to meet with him which is better. I will chat with you all tomorrow for the end of the week Updates.

The CBOTW Show Resolution?

                     One emoji for this: 🤷 I am as lost as you guys are and right now, I am beyond frustrated.... The platform we actually were expected to be on, well it hasn't panned out what it is to be. So we are how do I say it, homeless for The CBOTW Show at this moment. We do not offer it on iTunes, Spotify or iHeartRadio, Amazon Music right at this moment. I cannot tell you guys when. I continue to fight the good fight with the Audio Platform and continue to try and get us active on the other platforms too. Just right now we're semi homeless at the moment. 

                    Yes, I was considering ending the podcast series and only focusing on Entertainment Man Podcast but if you remember the Collaboration Podcasts, they did well with it just on the website and we can just do this way in the meantime and this is something I am considering. I will be working on two more movies today at some point and we will be recording something. As for The CBOTW Show it is exclusively on Rumble and here on ChrisBOnTheWeb.com. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Chris

19 Years With Online Media!

                 19 years in Online Media! I cannot fathom it's been almost 20 years since I started this journey. The Video Projects Team being my first team and it was quite tough as I was in-experienced at the time and no clue what I was doing whatsoever. However over time I got experience and learned from past experiences. Look at how successful I am now as an entrepreneurship from leading to more of a follower role as you know I stepped down as CEO last month to fulfill a different role.

                I have fulfilled all the different roles and happy as a clam the position I'm in right now with running the Content, Podcasts and Blogs across the website. Don't worry I am not going anywhere very much still a part of this company and nothing is going to change. I have 0 plans to quit or retire right now, I am most definitely here to stay. But that will be the post for today and as always I will talk to you tomorrow.

End of The Week Updates [11-30-2024]

              Another week has wrapped up and a lot has transpired this week. Despite Chris's busy schedule with appointments and being out and with friends he found time to record podcasts and he has 3 to edit and post up. Both podcasts have their schedules worked out for 2025.            Once Chris finishes editing and the audio is up hopefully next week, Chris will work on newer episodes including the collaborations with Bob and the next episodes with Larry. We have 3 episodes on tap ready and to be put up. Also there is a video for it but Larry and Chris forgot to verify Rumble so they will be doing that in a week and a half from now.

                  Lots of exciting stuff to come even while the issues with the main Audio ONLY still are happening, we continue to post one way or another. The team and myself are preparing the next step for The CBOTW Show. Will take us the entire month of December to work on the form and how we plan on connecting it to the website. Chris will have to figure out some kind of code for that. Nothing else has really happened, just getting things fixed still and recording, writing and going to events. The upcoming week he will be at the Tyrone Parade of Lights on Wednesday night, Saturday back in Halton for the Christmas streetcars like he did in the past. There will be blogs coming out Thursday and a week Monday. I hope you enjoy the rest your weekend and I will chat at the end of the week and any questions, please do not hesitate to ask us.

The Future of Both Podcasts!

                 I have been thinking about things on the weekend while getting work done. Here is what I am thinking:

Entertainment Man Podcast: Being the lead podcast on the network, I as the Executive Producer/Host of the podcast feel like it is more a radio show or radio program every week. So I have decided to keep Entertainment Man Podcast on Audio ONLY for the foreseeable future.

The CBOTW Show: I want to this to be the primary focus for the company as it is something we want to continue to grow in the future and even if Entertainment Man Podcast goes off air at any point of time in the future this will be back fall back moving forward. But I am not counting my podcast out yet, not yet... So much amazing things to come in the future! 

              So this is the future of both podcasts and there is a lot of things I am not saying publicly yet. But Sara and Larry know the plans and also I have talked about it on The CBOTW Show once but not the entire plan. This will be starting in 2025 and if it is requested, I will definitely put Entertainment Man Podcast. But that is the post for today and I will talk to you all tomorrow.

What's Next For ChrisBOnTheWeb Media?

              My name is Sara and I am the new Chief Executive Officer of ChrisBOnTheWeb Media or CEO for short. Chris is still around with the company, not in the limelight as much as he has been the last 19 years he's been in media. Firstly I want to thank Chris for this amazing opportunity. I am very humbled to be his successor in running such an amazing company that has been around for almost 10 years now. We appreciate everything he has done for this company to start another new era with me as the new CEO.

          I am changing nothing, Chris and I speak on a daily basis. I have already mentioned both Entertainment Man Podcast and The CBOTW Show are going NOWHERE and that's why I said this in caps. I want it my mission both shows are around 10 years and beyond. Both of his shows have been the backbone of this company for the last 4 and 6 years respectfully. As for blogs, Chris and I will share the role. I will be taking over the "End of The Week Updates" which will not be change. Any questions please do not hesitate to contact us, until the next post I do, I am happy to be joining such a wonderful group.

Addressing The Elephant In The Room.

              So what's with the title "Addressing The Elephant In The Room." Well Sunday night, I made the very difficult decision to step aside as the CEO of ChrisBOnTheWeb Media and handing things over to Sara who was my Administrative Assistant. Now she is running things with the company taking away all the stress. However nothing is going to be changing, I will still blog from time to time, still doing events on behalf of the company. As for the podcasts, I am still in charge of both shows. That will never change in the company. Sara wants both shows to continue on the network. 

             I do not know how long I will be gone as CEO. I am really not sure if I want to continue as CEO. I am very much happier blogging and producing and hosting podcasts. I have been in this game so long now it is time to pass on the baton to someone else. Hence why I am testing out Sara out to see how she does and all is good, in the New Year she will be the one to run the day to day operations of the company. So I may not be running things but I am still involved somewhere in the company. I love doing content in general, the business side of things isn't my forte. I thought I could change as a leader be a transformational leader but I feel like I failed the team. I have been running ChrisBOnTheWeb Media since the get go. Anyways I will talk more about it tomorrow why I stepped aside as that is the post for today and as always talk to you guys tomorrow!

Entertainment Man Podcast & The CBOTW Show Pages Down?

              From Audacity doesn't like OBS which I will talk more about tomorrow to our provider we have been relying on for years now has been down for quite some time since the end of last week apparently. So we wait to start uploading to our website again. That is the reason behind it because the audio are not showing up so we took the page, well more unpublished it actually. 

              We could actually do a linked word on the bottom of each one but the one for Everything About Reality TV wouldn't work as it doesn't exist anywhere on the internet anymore. So that is my main issue. However I could and can reupload to podcasts.com and link it there but then it will seem it is active once again when it isn't. We could redo the intros and outros that's like 200 + episodes to fix haha! The CBOTW Show would out do Entertainment Man! Anyways, Both Podcast pages are temporarily down till this issue is fixed with the provider and we apologize but the archive.org got an attack on their site and it took the site down. However the shows are still active under "On Demand which direct to Spotify for the time being but we'll let you know when it is back up and running. I will talk to you tomorrow as always for another blog post.

The CBOTW Show-- Schedule Notice

            As you can tell, we have been trying struggling and I think we are just at a point of time of halting production of The CBOTW Show. We are at the last ropes with our original schedule. We may need to try and change up the schedule. What I am thinking and I haven't talked to Larry yet this week but the plan is:

Wednesday, October 16th, 2024 @ 1 pm EST: Psycho

Wednesday, October 23rd, 2024 @ 1 pm EST: Addam's Family

(Special day & time) Thursday, October 31st, 2024 @ 9 pm EST: Beetle Juice 

November 1st - Nov 15th, 2024: Hiatus, due to the 10th anniversary finalizing, Entertainment Man Podcast will continue on Sundays during the finalizing of our plans. 

           So the reason behind The CBOTW Show hiatus for 14 - 15 days is because of the 10th Anniversary, we will be extremely busy with the event finalizing. However I know how important The CBOTW Show is and I have talked about The CBOTW Show on Social Media but this is where we are for the podcast but that is my post for today I will talk to you all tomorrow for another post!

Chris

End of The Week Updates [10-11-2024]

                Another crazy week has come to an end and time for some updates. First update is we are up to speed with podcasts. I am working on new episodes for both episodes and not sure what talked me into doing new episode for The CBOTW Show, yet I said there was no plans for a new episode next week so something just clicked. So I will be working on that today and tomorrow then from there I will have time after my break from ChrisBOnTheWeb Media on Sunday and Monday which I am planning to stream both days for hours on end during the daytime. 

               But Tuesday I'll be back to normal and working on new episodes for Entertainment Man Podcast and preparing for The CBOTW Show next Thursday as Larry and I will be back here in the studio for another recording session which I always look forward to before we take at least 2 - 3 more weeks or more off so we can record Christmas episodes the mid way of the month of November so we have content ready at the helm. I also want to point out November we will be back to normal content and already got two episodes planned out. I may try us at every 2 weeks for the month of November then back at it weekly to try and get to a weekly podcast again. I will talk about that on Monday for another post. Also the Discord server is finished completely and happy it is done and out of the way and ready to add subscribers role later on when and if I get affiliate. But I hope you all have a great weekend and I will talk to you all on Monday!
