The CBOTW Show [Ghostwriter series on Hiatus]

                Well, I have been a bit frustrated with the dislikes and comments about my co-host has really struck a nerve and now episodes being down voted has me thinking it's time to revamp things when it comes to the episodes being done. So we are putting a pause or putting those episodes on hiatus for the time being. It doesn't mean we will not be returning and we would like to in the nearby future but right now, there are some things I need to work on to improve the shows each episode that goes out. 

        Any disrespect towards Larry or myself, we will be blocking/banning from our community and network. We have 0 tolerance for disrespect as we are a clean, positive community in the end and we want to keep it this way. However, that is not the point of this post. We will know more once Larry and I are back together with each other. I will have another conversation with him how we are to improve and fix these episodes and they are indeed getting views especially Audio ONLY but I want to tweak things when we record shows together. That is the post for today, I will talk to you all on Saturday! Sara has something important to tell you guys regards to this blog.

Surprise Reality TV Related Episode Friday!

                   I never thought, Chris would ever return to Reality TV Podcasts. It's been about 5 years since his last episode and if my memory serves me right he was talking about The Amazing Race or the season that was coming up in the fall perhaps, not 100% sure but it's been almost 5 years and for him to come back really surprised me and the rest of the team. Maybe he felt it was time to even try at least one or two episodes out and see how it works with the current format of The CBOTW Show. 

               What he's recorded was about Survivor 50. What he told me, he was really excited with the  episode and that 5 year break is what he really need. Now it is Audio ONLY for that one but can be found on YouTube under the podcast tab and not quite sure the reason behind it but least you do get a bonus episode this week. I heard he's also going to be recording The Simpsons recaps content and Matilda movie as well today and tomorrow as tomorrow mornings blog, he has an announcement with The CBOTW Show, him and Larry as their on a bit of a hiatus from recording. Enjoy your Wednesday and I will be back Friday.

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!

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.

24 Hours of Fun w/ Larry!

          It will be a crazy 24 hours with Larry! Today we will be making history as we attempt to record 7 episodes of The CBOTW Show and we will be trying to keep it at 20 minutes each which will be 140 minutes of podcasting which is like over 2 hours of show coverage and will be ready for when I am away on holidays. I am having a bit of an idea and by the later half of the week as I will be talking a lot of events this weekend from the Bowmanville Maple Fest to the Doors Open Oshawa.  Anyways off topic. 

           Between our recording sessions, we will be watching a ton of TV, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Power Rangers Zeo, Turbo and in Space but not just that but playing a bit of Sims 2, Inzoi, I am going to let Larry try it out, I think I got him hooked on the game, the last time we played here in the studio. I am sure there will be a lot of snow talk as usual for the two of us but it will be fun and as I promised on the update video there will be a vlog of our afternoon and evening. I'm sure it will be a long vlog of some sort. Anyways that is the blog for today and as always I will speak to you on Monday, have a great weekend!

Chris

Busy Day For Us!

             I have a two podcasts that I was on and was interviewed one went up at 8 am EST as I was on Talks with Dr. Shafer and had a great talk about my journey and especially autism and recent news in the media about it but you have to tune into it, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EV7OoCVHRAM I know a little early for you but it'll be there and we will promote it again if we need to.  I know cause I have been up since 3 am slept 2 - 3 hours top and I am probably feeling it now unless I over slept but I doubt it. Then shorts for tomorrow's The CBOTW Show goes up @ 9 am, then this blog @ 11 am as usual, then 12 pm I was Invisable Condition with Jeff Pearson https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIIWrsa5ZfM e360tv, Facebook 

           Then we break for about an hour and more shorts/reels go out for you guys at 2 pm EST, then we get a bit of a gap till 7 pm EST for our final reel/short for tomorrow's episode. However will be recording motivational videos for tomorrow and I may slip in a 4th. Also will be working on Ghostwriter as time is ticking and I need to finish Into The Comics & start To The Light. Still a busy, busy day, hope to get out for an hour or two. Just some time to myself but we will see how far I will get tonight. I'm sure I will pass out early as I've had a rough night last night but that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you guys tomorrow. 

Chris

The CBOTW Show Re-Scheduled to 2 weeks!

            As mentioned in the Facebook Group and if you are not on the group it's listed on our website for you to join our fun little community for behind the scenes look. Anyways I mentioned on there only and as we had no plans to actually mention it publicly till this post goes up which you are reading right now. So after  Chris speaking to his right hand man Larry,  because of Easter and also his family is already down, they've decided to forgo the recording and visit till 2 weeks from now. 

          However the good news is Larry is actually staying the night here so means lots of time to record and planning on pushing 7 episodes the same day. Should get them beyond June and see what they can record after that before Larry moves north which means reworking all the tech stuff out with Discord. Will be interesting that's for sure. I am sorry for a very late post, chaotic day for us with a MIA boss man which he is back but I will be covering him for the rest of the week.

 

Sara

Look forward to all the interviews and guest appearances that we have. However that is the post for today, rather shortened post but once I know more I will let you guys know on social media and I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Chris

We're Getting on a Roll!

           Chris, myself and the rest of the team have been busy non stop, from uploading older shorts to post to working on episodes throughout the week and he's been doing 3 shows a week and we've been keeping up with the command. I've been helping him with editing and getting things done and out on time. We've been counting down and 22 days till the end of the video form episodes being re-uploaded. No ETA on the shorts from the past but once that is done then we are all new content moving forward. 

           This is why I may be taking over the blog for a while till he gets everything done with the older episodes and I know we are eager to start working on new episodes and have those ready for the future of the podcasts and he's spoke about it and so have I but we've had no time lately. Anyhow, I will chat with y'all tomorrow. 

Sara

Getting Ready for Thursday and Friday!

            This Thursday, tomorrow (Friday), Larry and I will be recording more Ghostwriter series episodes and going to try and aim for 20 - 25 minutes for the most part. We continue to move forward with the series and excited to keep on going with this series and the future series that I am planning on both Video & Audio ONLY! Big stuff are on the horizon for The CBOTW Show. We're making some big moves and cannot wait to share all the episodes we record because we are recording in batch, both Larry and I & Bob and I as well. 

           So we will have a ton of stuff going on towards the second half of the year, lots of recording and busy busy here in the studio. Either way, excited stuff coming up for the podcasts since we have two shows currently active in our Media Network/Company. I can't talk about a lot about it right now but in due time there will be something coming out, don't you worry. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Chris

Plans now that the website work done?

            What is the plan now that the website is completed what is the plans now? Well work on Ghostwriter episodes and get Corner Gas episodes watched, notes taken and it has been on my list for the longest time now. This is the opportunity to work on these things and really get things started for the podcasts and really get the numbers up with The CBOTW Show. However I realized this I have one episode that never aired whatsoever and I have no idea why it never got posted so end of the year in December I will be putting it up and already have it scheduled for December 3rd, 2025. I have to remember that The CBOTW Show should be coming out at 6 pm EST not 1 pm EST. I will make a note of it and do a reel explaining it.

           Also on my list is to get Entertainment Man Podcast episodes created, when I say that write brand new episodes and not just Entertainment Man but The CBOTW Show being worked on but that will come later once I get on a roll with getting things ready. So that is the plan and it will be adjusted if it needs to but basically the things I want to work on and yes maybe I will be more active with the Discord Server, not maybe I will be more active as there has been issues, I just wanna make sure there is no more issues. Anyways that is what is next for us and I am excited for what's next and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Chris

Halfway there! [Big Update]

           So you probably want a more of an explanation on what has been released and obviously it was Entertainment Man Podcast page is now back up and running after just a week and a couple of days it is fully fixed and running. This is the halfway mark of our website fixes as the provider we had isn't reliable anymore and we are moving on from them and doing our players a little better powered by Spotify. Now you're gonna ask me what about "Everything About Reality TV Podcast" which what got this network started back in 2015, almost 10 years ago. Well the players will remain as they are. We do not want to upload to Spotify and having to update the entire page again so if Archives for the podcast goes down then so be it but hopefully it's back up quickly.

         This is the halfway marker of fixing the pages. The CBOTW Show is the next project and I plan to recode and fix the entire page tomorrow and that should be the completion of fixing the players. I trust Spotify and we have a good relationship with the platform staff as they have been very helpful with some issues we have had in the past so we thank them for the help and support as we transitioned to this platform. Also this week, I will be starting to transition Entertainment Man Podcast's RSS Feed and by the end of the week we should be officially off Castbox by the end of the week. I will not update all platforms as there is so many the podcast is on but I am sure it will be rediscovered quickly and with this change it will be permanent change no more moving around anymore. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Weekly Updates [03-06-2025]

                 Another week gone and so much has changed this week. Chris had re-added the Founders page which was in our trash section for a while but he has decided to put it back up on the website and I do not know why he removed it but glad he made the decision to bring it back. 5th Anniversary is written and I believe he has recorded it and not sure if there video recorded or not. We will see on Sunday at 1 pm EST. 

           Chris hopefully will be working on Ghostwriter and Corner Gas this weekend in-between him being at the rink. I know he said he might be taking today, tomorrow and Sunday off but sounds like he will be taking breaks for an hour or so between the games. Anyways he's actually finished the uploading process on YouTube and should be done by the end, well he's not told me anything but I am guessing it won't be too long from now what I am suspecting. 

          If he does video for Entertainment Man Podcast it will be for two Special episodes, the 5th anniversary on Sunday and the 300th Episode sometime in May as well. I believe that is everything for updates, enjoy your weekend and will speak to you all at the end of next week.

 

Sara, COO (Chief Operating Officer)

Tech Work was worked on this morning!

           This morning, Larry and I are working on the green screen and video side of things today to assure we are going to have it working for now less then 2 weeks from now. Which everything is working very nicely in the setup so we can indeed move forward with video The CBOTW Show as Entertainment Man Podcast does not do video and totally unsure if it will return to video actually in the future. Haven't really thought about it honestly. I actually am questioning the 5th anniversary on video and I have the tech figured out for it. 

          Anyways we have it all figured out and moving forward no more issues with lights as these are bright LED's and should do the job for the Green screen and we have a good quality podcast for the video side of things. So we are good and we will be recording in less then 2 weeks on another episode of Ghostwriter to continue on posting episodes and usually once a month we record something. Anyways that is the post for today, have a great weekend and talk to you on Monday!

Chris

Entertainment Man Podcast 5th Anniversary!

              As you know Entertainment Man Podcast is turning 5 years old this weekend on Saturday. Now I have not spoken about it whatsoever and it is my own fault and to be honest I am not sure what the plan is. I am having a hard time coming up with ideas. Plus I already have prior commitments this weekend to even think about a live show this weekend to celebrate the 5th anniversary but maybe the 10th if the podcast gets to that milestone.

             Anyways, I am trying to come up with some ideas what to talk about. It is really difficult to do something from the heart but I am trying my hardest to get ideas in my head so I can actually do the episode for this weekend. Now premiere wise, I may need to schedule it for later and the entire audio only as well because I may be at the hockey rink near 3 pm Sunday afternoon. Yes I said Premiere. For the first time in months, I am actually going to be doing a video version of Entertainment Man Podcast and first time I've shown my face on the podcast in a long time. 

               However after that will be back to Audio ONLY after that as old episodes continue to air till Late April and I will address it eventually when it is going to be complete and we can get back to normal NEW content as a community and we can put the past behind us and move on. Back to 5th anniversary, I will be trying my best to actually make it a lengthy episode hopefully 40 - 45 minute episode so I can really celebrate the 5th anniversary. I should be proud of this milestone as I've worked hard over the years building the channel. Anyways that is the episode for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Chris

Weekly Updates [02-21-2025]

          This week has been chaotic. Recording editing and what not. I will not talk about the video Chris is going to be recording but he needs to talk to you guys about the recent episodes him and Larry recorded as the video there was no sound so he had to scrap it but he will talk about it in a video after he's back from his interview followed by a haircut this afternoon. He wants to set the record straight ahead of time. 

          We are on the right track with editing and scheduling the posts. After that, he is working on new content hopefully and also re-uploading episodes to YouTube so he will be working on those this weekend. Also we have been working on a Brand new Discord server and already has members in and in a recent stream, Chris mentioned putting it into the bot system he uses on Twitch. 

          We are currently doing anything and everything to get things done this weekend so we can go back to planning new episodes, continuing on. What I gather he is working all weekend on stuff and the upcoming week he will be working on the next Ghostwriter for the following week. We are doing everything we can to get everything finished up. Making up for lost time while we are sick. Talk to you all next week.

 

Sara- Chief Operating Officer

The CBOTW Show Plans & Updates!

              The CBOTW Show is back in session today with another 5 amazing episodes of Ghostwriter as we continue on with the series. Now in 2 weeks, we will be again recording more episodes so we are ahead of schedule as we're getting ready for the transition with Larry from in studio to him and I doing things online as he's moving this year so we are going to be transitioning over to online but not yet but we are starting the transition planning. 

                Also we will be recording in 2 weeks 4 more episodes so this should take us into April maybe early May as well so we will be ahead of schedule and we are sticking to the once a month recording sessions for now and they seem to work which is great with this method but procrastination has been really bad so we're trying to weave around everything as much as possible and we will make sure to have a proper schedule and timetable to when we record podcasts and start preparing them. Anyways those are the updates on this podcast, hope you guys have a great weekend and I will talk to you all on Monday!

Chris

Possible The CBOTW Show Next Week!

         Hopefully next week Chris and Larry will be doing more episodes of The CBOTW Show but we will see how Boss Man is as he's taking it one day at a time. But he's spoken about possibly even just writing notes and reading off of those but he's been back in the studio today a bunch.           

          I am excited for it, I know there has been questions about the Corner Gas Podcast but I do not have the answer for it and I hope it will start soon. He mentioned March he will be watching 4 episodes soon. All I know according to his schedule he has an interview for his other. So please be patient. I know we're eager to be releasing episodes of Corner Gas and Ghostwriter. Question of the day for you is did you guys enjoyed the first 5 episodes Chris and Larry put out and I will chat tomorrow.
