Working away on podcasts and the website!

            Still working away on Corner Gas and need to finish the final 2 episodes with Bob and hope next week or two we can get back into that once again and that it won't be delayed in the New Year as I keep on procrastinating every single time. Also I have the episode with Larry to edit and need to record two more episodes. Also have done some tech work and I see why the sound was off compare to what it was before, I had automatically adjust mic and that was an issue before and hopefully this crap doesn't replicate but time will tell when Bob and I hop back on a call. 

          Website wise I am already on Season 3 of 6 so halfway there video video wise but need to continue to work on it but it isn't a full priority right now as I have to maintain the current and active podcasts is the most upmost importance right now and it is totally understandable to get all the content, podcasts and blogs that need to be done, done. I will talk more about it on my social media streams this weekend and I will talk to you all tomorrow for a bonus blog post.

Entertainment Man Podcast Page Work slow down....

             There has been a bit of a slow down as of this morning as I was awake during the night as I couldn't sleep any more as I passed out earlier last night, I wanted to do a post today to let you know I am working on the Entertainment Man Podcast page and it is still in archives at the moment but been adding back Archives.org as they've been having a bit of a loading issue and wish there is a way to put a player right from this website itself. 

           It was indeed Archive.org having some loading issues and it happens as they get a ton of traffic daily so it is understandable and I already reported the issue early this morning and they have fixed it so we are back to working on the website page for Entertainment Man Podcast while working on episodes for The CBOTW Show. Anyways that is the post for today and as always talk to you all tomorrow.

Entertainment Man Podcast will be RETURNING!

             I have gotten emails and questions when is Entertainment Man Podcast is coming back, is it coming back, what happened to it? That really pressured me to think what's best for the company and it's shows the interest in the show returning for a 7th season is amazing! I will start working on ideas and get booking for the New Year and already got people lined up, a potential new interview on Entertainment Man Podcast plus planning to have Jimi, Ken and Gilda all on the podcast as well and I just need to book em.

            So I am looking at Sunday, January 4th, 2026 @ 1 pm EST and I will do the full schedule tomorrow for that but it will be only on Audio ONLY as I already have 3 other shows Tuesdays & Thursdays for The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies & Fridays for After Hours with Shane and Chris which more information is coming on that via video very, very soon. Anyways I look forward to the new beginnings for all 3 shows and this is indeed the best thing to do moving forward. The break from this podcast was the right thing to do and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Busy Week for Us!

                This week will be a busy week for us. Corner Gas is being recorded once again with season 2 now days away from the recording session. Also we will be or I will be working on Christmas Movies for the month of December. Editing and scheduling episodes will be the upmost priority for us. Once I finish that, I hope I can get back to working on Entertainment Man Podcast.

                 Speaking of that I have decided to keep the episodes up on all platforms for your binging pleasure. I also will be changing the audio to video eventually once I hit the 2022 mark then the video versions will be popping up. So it will be a very busy week and weeks ahead of us in the way of content and plus possibly heading to the Halton County Radial Museum as well. It depends on my schedule with family. It will remain up unless something indefinitely changes but Tyrone Parade of Lights is a GO this Wednesday as I do not have anything scheduled. Anyways that is the post and keep an eye out on social media for any cancellations or changes and I will talk to you tomorrow.

The CBOTW Show- Reality TV Recaps

              2026 is going to be the year of new shows surrounding the already hit podcast The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies, we have After Hours With Shane and Chris and of course The CBOTW Show- Reality TV Recaps which Chris wants to do a post on Monday where the inspiration came from this. Starting in late February 2026 Billy will be launching the first Reality TV Show on this sister podcast to the already acclaimed successful podcast.

            Chris has noted he will be Billy's right hand when it comes to Survivor 50: In The Hands of The Fans Recaps each and every week. What I gather it will be on Audio ONLY and that was Chris's decision before bringing Billy into the fold when it comes to Reality TV Podcast. In December which is in 5 days away Chris will be releasing information on how to get involved as he is planning to expand it a tad more once again. However time will tell on expanding on shows, enjoy the rest of your day and I shall return tomorrow.

Ghostwriter Series Hiatus [The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies]

                 Ghostwriter series that Larry and Boss Man are recording has stopped recording, the recording sessions are on hiatus currently. But when the last 4 air, that will be the last one for a while. He has stated he is not sure how long it will be but end of January it will be indeed Chris taking over the Thursday airwaves of The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies. 

                  Excited to see what he brings to the table and he's told me a few ideas in the back of his head while watching The Santa Claus movie with Tim Allen.  One of them being a Tim Allen Show called Home Improvement as he wants to bring the nostilga to the podcast and one of the reasons why he created The CBOTW Show back in 2018 with Larry was this exact reason why he did it. Another one was him bringing Shifting Gears to the Podcast with Tim Allen another one of his series he's been in. He may do a public poll to see what you guys think he should do.

December Movies for The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies

              December is upon us and Chris is up to the plate for Christmas movies and he has a bunch of ideas and he has the first 2 weeks planned out plus 2 more for the rest of the month of December and here is the plan:

Thursday, December 4th, 2025: Santa Clause 2

Thursday, December 11th, 2025: Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause

Thursday, December 18th, 2025: Christmas Vacation

Thursday, December 25th, 2025: Christmas with the Kranks

               Excited for him to be covering all of these movies and it will be a full December coming up. These episodes will be on Thursdays @ 6 pm EST in place of Ghostwriter till January when that podcast will be returning one last time before a hiatus and I will talk about it with what boss man has told me so far. 

 

Chat tomorrow,

Tech Work Begins for the Future of The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies!

              The Tech work for the future episodes with Larry has begun today as Larry is here in the studio with me hanging out we have decided to do some technical work with him and I recording episodes in the very nearby future. I know we still have 2 left one on video/audio and the other just audio only due to me accidently deleting the video episode. Then nothing till January then we are off the air for the foreseeable future until Mr. Larry is ready to get back into it and gives me time to work on Ghostwriter right to the end of the series. 

             So basically the tech work being done is for a call between Larry and I and we are not sure what we will be using at the moment. I am thinking Streamyard but not 100% sure but we will decide that when we get ready. I'd like to use Discord as much as possible but we currently don't have a server so that is so out of the question. What I am thinking is using Streamyard in it's entirety as I've had complaints that I'm not sure where the call will be well I am most definitely going to be utilizing streamyard for major of the shows, however the one with Shane and I will be using Riverside. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you to you all tomorrow for our 11th Anniversary of ChrisBOnTheWeb Media!

Spotify Falsely Claiming a Copyright.... [I'm Not Pleased ONE BIT!]

           I don't think I have a reason to be mad, yeah I got blocked in certain countries, USA being one of them but it was my fault putting that music only but they didnt need to send me copyright notice after copyright notice. I ended up spamming the same reply again and again in real frustration and I think I got the message to them that the episodes were removed from our feeds to correct the issue and they continued to put claim after claim. 

           I was starting to think ohh... we may have to go back to YouTube which I am not a fan of anymore because of the trolls and one specific group that turned their backs on us. However I know that there is a solution to everything and yeah I threatened to go back to another site we once used and that might of helped but threatening to abandon a site doesn't really help. I'm sorry if I am ranting but I am not pleased one bit but least it has stopped for now. I will talk to you all soon on another blog post. 

Chris

This Weekend Will be Busy!

           This weekend will be a busy one for us as we will be editing so much ti is just unreal how much content we have to edit, put together and have ready at the helm for November, December and January. I am also working on the shorts/reels for the episodes and one of the episodes doesn't have video as I carelessly erased the entire video version of the podcast so now I have 3 episodes video and 1 without but what can you do and at least I have an actual audio only.

           So we hope to complete all of those as next week I want to tackle the website stuf that needs to be done. Either way we will continue to get all of the things completed in a timely fashion but first is all the podcasts are to be done and today will be recording the podcast for Sunday and the first and important thing after I get the Motivational Fridays done. Anyways that is today's post and as always I will talk to you all on Monday, have a great weekend! 

Happy Halloween!

Last Day of Recording with Larry for a while!

            Today marks our last day in the studio together recording a podcast together till after he moves away up north which our studio will be very, very quiet without him present with laughter and jokes. I'm sure I may see him one more time before and maybe a lunch, I do not know but if not we will make the best out of our last day not just recording but hanging out.  I am not sure what 2 weeks tomorrow brings so we are acting like it is our last. 

             I will make sure to capture on camera a lot of things that we do throughout the day and post it over the weekend for you guys plus this weekend will be a busy one but will talk tomorrow about that. However we will have video footage and pictures to share this weekend and it will be a busy weekend with content on our social medias. Anyways we will make it a great day together and capture the moment the final time we meet and say so long for now but remember what I said anything is possible for the start of November but that will be the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Entertainment Man Podcast Chat...

            I know the episodes aren't doing well and it will take time for the podcast rebound as a lot of the views came from YouTube. I know and realize there was a petition out there for the podcast to go to video and perhaps, perhaps if it went video then things would most definitely change in the way of views maybe. I will be trying that this week for the first time since end of August 2025 Spotify video for this podcast will happen.

          I am all for trying it out and seeing what works and what doesn't work and this is something that works for the show. I do not want to make that decision to cancel it after this year and it goes away and not make a return to air whatsoever but not going to give up so easily but that is the post for today, enjoy the double podcast this afternoon and tonight and I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Chris

Podcast Pages Players back to it's Original Player!

           This is in preparation mode as we are seeing what we need to switch back to the old players and if I remember off the top of my head Everything About Reality TV & Power Rangers Collaboration which is in our Archives have the old players already placed on the page but we will check when we start adding back in the old players. We may have to upload some episodes or a bunch of them as we did take a break from that player but that's OK though. 

          We will explore everything and see what needs to be completed and it will be released at the same time once it has been completed. If you see some pages that are already done don't be alarmed, we will announce once all the work is completed. This shouldn't take too, too long honestly.  Once I get started in replacing the players, I should get into a good rhythm and it will be completed quickly but I need to work on some things first for next week or so, please be patient but that will be it for the second blog. I'm sorry no blog yesterday, was out of town and no time to write anything and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Chris

More Major Work to be done!

              I know, I know! More work to the website? Just to the podcast pages for the following Podcasts: "Entertainment Man Podcast" "The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies" & "The CBOTW Show- Reality TV" all need the old audio player we once had at some point. However the Discord server is finished finally and I am very happy and content with the way the server is so now I can move on to other projects and as always please report any bugs on our server if there is any and I will check the issue at hand. 

              The other work that needs to be done besides Ghostwriter is Hocus Pocus movies for next week to record hoping Larry is healthy again as he's been sick quite a bit lately and I need to make sure my co-host is healthy to record. Also will be working Thursdays two episodes along with Entertainment Man Podcast as it's a rainy day here in Ontario so I am in my studio majority of the day may step out in the afternoon to spend time with my parents but we will see. If I have time by the end of the week, I will even work on Corner Gas editing, Ghostwriter editing and by golly even work on Building Bridges. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Not Doing Seasons/Episodes on The CBOTW Show for Now....

            I have literally given up on doing seasons and episodes and it is easy for us to do that but we may down the road add in the episode #'s when it comes but seasons it isn't really possible to do but I think it's best to leave it blank but I want you guys to know how many episodes we have done, I don't know because right now I am rambling at this point and completely not able to cohearently talk like a normal human being but at this point I see no reason to do it at this point hence it has been since left empty.

             I somehow think I ended up putting the same number so it doesn't seem to add it to the amount of episodes and plus we schedule the posts way ahead of schedule and kind of the format we want to do technically. Anyways for now I will leave it as it is for now and we will see where we go with this beyond and bet you anything we will be checking all the episodes and renumbering them, however that is the blog post for the week, have a great weekend and as always, I will talk to you all on Monday!

The CBOTW Show w/ Larry and I Beyond 2025

           I know there has been questions what the future of Ghostwriter is and we do not know. I know there has been questions when we will be back. It may not be till a year from now. I am sure I will be talking to Larry between the other projects that I am working on in the meantime but as for recording by end of October and that will be a wrap for Larry for a while. 

          Don't worry, we will be back in due time but I am not sure when and I am not going to pressure him or myself to getting back into things and this gives me a ton of time to work on seasons 2 & 3 and get ready for the next step of this. I know I sound like a broken record but we cannot rush things and the extra time will be good for me to work on things behind the scenes. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow and thank you, Zoey for covering for me last week while I was in the middle of a ton of chaos here.

Why do we have a lot of downtime?

            I know the lack of episodes and content compare to when we were on YouTube. However even if I am not at the computer I am always thinking one step ahead of the team and always thinking how we can improve and even post up some behind the scenes. The reason why we have so much downtime is because we are lacking in the content department. What Are we doing to rectify it?

--> Halton County Radial Museum; Videos, photos of my day out with my dad. 

--> South Simcoe Railway; Videos, photos of my day out with my dad. 

--> Try and do some occasional Saturday blogs if I find a ton of things to talk about.

--> Double up with The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies: I know Larry and I haven't started to record podcasts together yet. I will try and fill in on Thursdays if possible. 

           Trying to make things up and get back into a routine is important as we head into adding the new After Hours with Shane and Chris, hopefully October. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.
