Making MAJOR Changes!

             Reality TV Podcasts will NEVER have it's own feed, I will be merging it to The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies Feed as one. That is if we do Reality TV and I doubt it at this moment. Two I have decided to not hiring anyone else at the moment and leaving the team as it is at the moment with the help of my administrative assistant, it makes things a heck a lot of things easier for me and the rest the team. I am thankful for my Global Moderators, Tacofreak08 & Kevin for always keeping the community, clean, positive at all times. 

             Anyways the three shows you see in our network will be the main 3 running and eventually I do want to add Kevin, to cover Deal or No Deal Island, seasons 1 & 2 & also add in Dancing with The Stars next season with Mary so there will be a few expansions here and there and it will all be part of The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies. With these changes will come more collaborations. Anyways that is the post and I will be doing another post at 1 pm EST so I will talk to you all then.

End of the Week Updates! [01-31-2026]

             Another has come to an end which means time for the end of the week updates! I had some interesting ideas in the back of my mind so here are the updates:

Newsletter: I was thinking about doing the newsletter and these end of the week updates. Might extend the newsletter and changing things around, keeping the end of the week updates for here and the new and what's upcoming for ChrisBOnTheWeb, events, podcasts, podcast updates and what not. 

Entertainment Man Podcast: I have come to terms that Entertainment Man Podcast will NEVER return to video whatsoever. I am totally OK with that to be quite honest. 

Working on Corner Gas: The next step is to get Corner Gas going for next week as I am recording with Bob in a week and a half from now so it is on the dire need to get finished first. 

Ghostwriter: There has been movement on the series wanting to return and Larry practically asked me to start working on it or have I worked on it which I haven't lately. 

The CBOTW Show: To replace Larry and I's podcast while it's being worked on and Larry settling down in his new home, I will be doing probably an array of things such as Malcolm in The Middle; Malcolm in the Middle: life's still uunfair, Groundhog day.

           Anyways those are the updates for the week and newsletters will be returning with some different between both and maybe our newsletter we will focus on community events, podcasts, live streams, blog updates, etc. I am going to try this out and it should be active the pop up once again here on our website but as always talk to you guys on Monday, enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Chris

Next week I go solo on Thursdays for a while!

             Next week, starts my solo career on Thursdays as Larry is not available at the moment as he just moved and I will be talking to him next week on a video call through Discord to do some testing so we are going to be starting a testing phase. Here is what I am thinking moving forward for the month of February for both Tuesdays and Thursdays:

Tues. Feb 3rd, 2026: Corner Gas, Season 2, EP # 8, Security Cam [Bob & Chris]

Thurs. Feb 5th, 2026: Groundhog Day [Chris]

Tues. Feb 10th, 2026: Corner Gas, Season 2, EP # 9, Bingo Night [Bob & Chris]

Thurs. Feb 12, 2026: Malcolm in The Middle, Season 1, EP 1 - 4 [Chris]

Tues. Feb 17th, 2026: Corner Gas, Season 2, EP # 10, Mosquito Time [Bob & Chris]

Thurs. Feb 19th, 2026: Malcolm in the Middle, Season 1, EP 5 - 8 [Chris]

Tues. Feb 24th, 2026: Corner Gas, Season, EP # 11, Hurry Hard [Bob & Chris]

Thurs. Feb 26th, 2026: Malcolm in the Middle, Season 1, EP # 9 - 13 [Chris]

          There is the timetable for February 2026 and I will do this at the end of every month especially that I am now on my own on Thursdays until Larry is ready to go for recording. Anyways that is the post for today as always talk to you all tomorrow.

The CBOTW Show Chatter....

             There has been a lot of chatter in regards to The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies and Reality TV Recaps. The chatter with the two podcasts both under the same show name but two different feeds. We're again making that shift back into the Reality TV Podcasts as Billy really wants to be involved and I am going to let him do the recaps even if I pop on my once and a while. So that is exciting as we gear up for Survivor 50. 

             The other end of the line with the regular show, the TV & Movies Recaps, Larry and I have been talking about the return. We have gone through everything, testing is the first thing as we didn't have a ton of time to test on his laptop and we failed at the Streamyard and was a bit of a problem for him still and I saw him but it wasn't connecting. Anyways we will be testing Discord out to make sure it is ready to go. So the timeline isn't very clear as I already stated to Larry that I will have to watch the shows then mail him the notes so it will take some time for it to get up to him. Anyways that is the post for today and as always talk to you all tomorrow!

Chris

Reality TV Podcasts are done!

            For those who are in our little Facebook circle, The CBOTW Show- Reality TV Recaps has been scrapped entirely! Communication with the team behind the show lack luster so I am kind of taking this experience and flipping around to full focus on both "Entertainment Man Podcast" & "The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies" which I am going to and have already been calling it just "The CBOTW Show" even though the title of the podcast is different from how I say it. The schedule remains the same for right now Tuesdays with Bob & Thursdays with Larry which I have an announcement for it tomorrow @ 1 pm EST.

          We will be adding into The CBOTW Show "Dancing With the Stars Recap with both Mary and I" and maybe, just maybe I will let her take the reigns as host for a change and I will be the co-host but we will see that is later on in the year and if they renew the show for another season but I am sure it will be gotta think positive and look forward to it as this will be my second season watching it. So we have a plan in place and Saturdays is a spare day for posting up episodes and I can always remanuever the episodes with Larry to Saturdays if I need to but we will play around with the schedules as we see fits. Anyways, as always I will talk to you guys tomorrow!

Chris

Any updates on Ghostwriter?

            I know it is January and right now, we are finishing up the first season and after that, there will be open slot on our schedule as Larry will be and has been on leave but I have seen and recieved messages and I've mentioned him on social media and people are wondering when? When are we going to go back? 

            Well I do not know but I can say next week, I will be working on the next batch of Ghostwriters with the same format as before and I believe it is a shorter season and so is season 3 so there should be no problem getting it done so we can move on to another series and we have another one picked out already! Anyways, I think and believe it will be either mid year or fall 2026 to early January 2027 when we return as you know I have to mail out his package of notes to him up north and that will take a bit of time as he's not local so I need time to work on that and get it out to him. So more like later in the year and Larry and I haven't discussed it and I am obviously writing this before he hops on and have 0 information but if I do by now, I will be sure to update you next week as that is the post for today and week, have a great weekend!

Chris

The CBOTW Show- Reality TV Recaps isn't done yet!

           The CBOTW Show- Reality TV Recaps isn't done! Survivor 50 & Traitors are on it's way and Traitors US Season 4 starts at the end of the week so that is indeed exciting for us and I will personally be covering it this season. If I need to jump onto Survivor 50 recaps, I will but we will figure a way around it as it's Billy's domain for the shows actually. I am just excited to be somewhat involved with a show either way even if it is several months apart. 

          This week on Friday @ 6 pm EST the first episode that will be released to you guys publicly and will be on both Video and Audio ONLY and I will talk about the schedules tomorrow on another blog post but expect more from the Reality TV Recaps as we continue to grow this network more and more and I know we are on the right track with shows and what not. Anyways that is the post for today and as always talk to you all tomorrow!

Chris

Goals for 2026!

              Since we are now in 2026 it is time to specify our goals for 2026. Remember what I said on the second last motivational Friday start with small goals then go for the bigger ones, split up the goals into small ones:

Entertainment Man Podcast: Take a crack at mine and you guy's favorite podcast and try and regain your trust for just ending it with no notice nothing. 

The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies: Continue to collaborate with Bob and some other people, possibly even doing more Ghostwriter with Larry perhaps depending when he is ready to record again.  Also Dancing with the Stars Podcast with Mary is in the works as long as the show gets renewed. 

After Hours with Shane & Chris: Really take off with this new talk show and still possibly stream it to a site but not sure where and how at this moment. If not then record and post it on Saturdays @ 3 pm EST.

Hit 2 Million views! I know this is something I'd like to get to and we are currently closing in on that milestone. 

Collaboration: Would love to continue to collaborate with people and could bring back the Collaboration Podcast that would be website based even just as a collaboration perhaps. 

Finally get paid: We have been with adsense and we really hope and wish that we would start getting payments from Adsense as we need to hit the cap in ordered to be paid. 

Drama & Stress Free Year: This year I would like to have just 1 year without stress, problems and dramarama as that hasn't helped my mental health but besides the point. I want to remain focused to our goals to continue being successful.

Anyways those are our goals for 2026, once again Happy New Year, enjoy your weekend and as always talk to you all on Monday!

Chris

Survivor 50 Recaps is a GO!

        The logo doesn't decieve you, The CBOTW Show- Reality TV Recaps is on it's way back and with Survivor 50 around the corner, Billy and I are getting ready to rip and roar through the Recaps all of Season 50 of Survivor 50: In The Hands of the Fans. Also it is out there we are looking for hosts for Traitors US for the New Years and I will be doing a post again next week as we continue to press the idea of expanding our network further. 

       Eventually it will happen where we will expand the network but baby steps to growing the network. The ideas I have for expanding is Traitors US; Traitors Canada; Amazing Race; Amazing Race Canada & of course Big Brother US. However that is a little bit extragious at the moment so Survivor 50 is the only one on the list plus Traitors but other then that Survivor 50 is most definitely a GO with Billy. Anyways that is the post for today and as always talk to you all tomorrow!

Chris

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. 

Chris

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!

Chris

Podcasts and Halloween!

                Guess what! I'm back with another blog! Surprise! So with next week being Halloween our schedule will be a lot more jammed packed in the way of schedule and one of the things I am working on today along with Entertainment Man Podcast for this weekend but next week what I've counted is 4 podcasts in the making which is the most I think that we ever put out in a week's worth of content. So here is the schedule for the week moving forward: 

Sunday, October 26th, 2025: 1 pm EST- Entertainment Man Podcast (Audio ONLY) 

Tuesday, October 28th, 2025: 6 pm EST- The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies-- Corner Gas, Season 1, EP # 7 "All My Ex's Live in Toronto" w/ Chris & Bob LeMent (Spotify Video/Audio ONLY)

Thursday, October 30th, 2025: The CBOTW Show-- TV & Movies-- Pyscho IV: The Beginning w/ Chris (Spotify Video/Audio ONLY)

Friday, October 31st, 2025: 6 pm EST- The CBOTW Show-- TV & Movies-- Hocus Pocus 2 w/ Chris & Larry (Spotify Video/Audio ONLY)

              There is the jammed pack schedule for the week more than half of the week with podcasts going out, almost the entire week and I hope you guys enjoy all 4 shows next week and as always I will speak to you guys soon!

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!

Chris

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!

Chris
