Fixing The Mess I Made!

             I know YouTube went down for almost 24 hours and glad it was able to be brought back online. I had to un-privatize the videos and get all 789 videos, shorts and podcasts back onto the channel. Well not back but return it to public once again. We are only doing the content, videos, shorts and podcasts only and only time you will see me physically on the channel itself is on chat during premieres which are quite often actually. At the most 4 times a week (2 Sundays, 1 Tuesdays, 1 Thursdays) for the time being. 

           I think I have done some of the damage control I caused, erase live streams and when and if I want to stream it'd be on Twitch but you'd have to be on my social media for that as I do not even remotely. However I think I am going to keep it to just chatting on YouTube and gaming on Twitch. I probably be live in the afternoon at some point, not sure whether it is Twitch or YouTube but we will see. I am back on track with things and excited for the future of our channel with the growth. Talk at 11 am EST!

Chris

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!

Happy Gilmore 2 Podcast and More!

               As you know Happy Gilmore 2 came out yesterday and the upcoming week there will be a podcast coming out on Thursday, so yes that's right a second podcast this week. However there will be a 2nd part as I plan on talking to Larry about this movie so there will be a part 2 sometime this fall for sure. Him and I might forgo the Halloween episodes or the better plan is him and I putting Ghostwriter on Hiatus once all the Who's Who episodes are aired on YouTube. This is something we don't want to do but have no choice as Larry's moving out of the region here so him and I will be not hosting any new episodes at the moment. 

             The Schedule will probably look like this:

Tuesdays: (July 28th)- Ghostwriter- Who's Who Pt 1 w/ Larry; (August 5th)- Ghostwriter- Who's Who Pt 2 w/ Larry; (August 12)- Ghostwriter- Who's Who Pt 3 w/ Larry;  (August 19th, 2025)- Ghostwriter- Who's Who Pt 4 w/ Larry

Thursdays: (July 31st, 2025)- Happy Gilmore 2 Podcast- Just me.

-------------------------------

August to October:

Tuesdays: (Possibly finishing up season 1 of Ghostwriter, maybe!) Happy Gilmore 2 Chat; Hocus Pocus 1 & 2

Thursdays: Corner Gas w/ Bob Lement

Fridays: Survivor 49 Recap with Billy and I

              Kind of gives you an idea what I am trying to plan moving forward I know it seems to be a lot on our schedule and how am I going to handle 4 shows a week this is where I am thinking of not returning to Reality TV Podcasts but still want Billy to go through with his podcast regardless but I will speak to him once my time in Facebook Jail is done later on tonight and I will give an update on Monday but that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all Monday!

Chris

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

The Plan With The CBOTW Show.... [After episodes we've recorded runs out]

               As you know The CBOTW Show is back in the saddle with new episodes and we are back underway and you may know Larry is actually now away for possibly the rest of the summer till the fall which means there is 8 episodes of Ghostwriter remaining for the 1st season of the series so it will then be on break afterwards but between all of that and Corner Gas and also Halloween fast approaching, we have to make time for those as well and probably will have to make a full day of recording for at least 2 more times then we will be taking a break from Ghostwriter.

            So we have to kind of wind around the seasons, October (Spooky Month, Halloween) & December (Christmas Season) so we will do the best we can and plus Survivor 49 recaps will be on Audio ONLY so that will be in the mix and I am not 100% sure I can add a 4th podcast and may need to ask Billy to find a new co-host so it takes off a lot of that pressure when it comes to the Reality TV Podcasts but we will see and play it by ear. So that is pretty much the plan moving forward and I know it sounds very, very complicated but it will all fall into place eventually but that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow! 

Chris         

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.

Chris

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.

Chris

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.
