End of The Week Updates [12-01-2023]

              Welcome to the first "End of the Week Updates" for December 2023! Boy it's be a whirlwind of issues this week especially with the older PC to a point Chris has considered getting rid of the computer and completely scrapping it. However he's been trying to clean it out completely and using it for the paperwork side of things. He's been pretty quiet the last 12 + hours not said much, not sure what's going on but I think just swamped with the workload right now. 

              He is planning to work on the movies this weekend, tomorrow and Sunday.  least 5 of them and he will be recording 4 both on the same day and edit it and have it scheduled. He wants all the open time as much as possible. One of them on the 12th of this month is actually with Larry. Between that he's been trying to actually get the notes done and working on the next season and getting it completely finished. Those are the small updates, nothing too crazy just Chris fighting with his old computer as usual but seems to be working fine now and have a good weekend and I will talk to you all next Friday.

Let's Talk YouTube!

            YouTube has become a pivotal part of ChrisBOnTheWeb Media and The Video Projects Team for almost 18 years now on the history of both group and company. I know I've been asked what's next for us YouTube wise well we don't really know honestly. Probably end up taking another break from the platform again but yet we do not know what the heck is going on yet. We've not reached that point we are happy where we're at this moment. 

           However I've spoken about bringing The CBOTW Show to YouTube as well but it seems to not be a thing not right now as it isn't the right and place for Larry and I to do The CBOTW Show on YouTube as it is not in the cards right now. So nothing is really set in stone at this moment. However I am willing to explore the option for The CBOTW Show or any other podcast down the road but right now I want to focus on Entertainment Man Podcast on both Video and Audio ONLY and The CBOTW Show on Audio ONLY. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow.

End of The Week Updates [11-24-2023]

              So a lot has happened this week and I do not know where to begin what Chris and the rest of the staff but here we go:

Website: It was time to finally release the 10th anniversary pages and we're sorry we've been slow on releasing it and not the other Staff's fault it is all on me for leaving the Trip down memory lane as I was stumped on something but it is done and happy it's done and released. The schedule for 2024 anniversary will not be released till January 1st, 2024. I will be redoing that page in the month of December and this will be an easier project as I plan on doing table like page as it can be a lot of moving parts to our 10th anniversary.

Entertainment Man Podcast: Chris will be recording and starting to edit the podcast for Sunday to assure it is done for Sunday. Also Chris is deciding whether to close interview requests for the year as he has only 1 spot but he's holding off on that request for right now.

The CBOTW Show: Chris and Larry have recorded Home Alone and Home Alone 2: Lost in New York Podcasts and Chris is currently editing it and will have it ready for a week from now. He will have 2 weeks of content to fullfill him and big shoutout to him and Larry for giving us these episodes. Chris hopes to finish up the Power Rangers starting on Monday and getting it done by the following weekend at the most so he can work on Dino Fury. 

          That is what's gone on this week and I will be back a week from now on the first end of the week updates on Friday, December 1st, 2023 so have a great weekend and talk to you next Friday.

Mark, Community Director/Site Admin

What Will The CBOTW Show Schedule Entail In December?

             Yes! The CBOTW Show has started to shape up for December! So far 2 out of the 4 weeks that will be back to back weeks. Chris has decided something before Larry even found out as he probably found out yesterday that December 7th they'll be recording Happy Gilmore after they actually setup the studio which I am going to cover tomorrow as Chris has been setting things up for December. But Happy Gilmore will be a bonus podcast added into  the December line up and here's the schedule for the upcoming month of December:

Friday, December 1st, 2023: Home Alone

Friday, December 8th, 2023: Home Alone 2

Tuesday, December 12th, 2023: Happy Gilmore [Bonus Podcast from Chris & Larry on Bob Barker's 100th birthday]

Friday, December 15th, 2023: Movie TBA [as the poll on our private Facebook group closes on Nov 30th @ 6 pm EST]

Friday, December 22nd, 2023: Movie TBA [as the poll on our private Facebook group closes on Nov 30th @ 6 pm EST]

Friday, December 29th, 2023: Mr. Bean episode for New Years

              It's a nice full schedule for The CBOTW Show, look forward to hearing all the podcasts the two of them record and put out there and Chris on his own too. It is a nice combination and Chris really thought outside the box this time to make up for no Power Rangers Podcast till the New Year. I will talk to you tomorrow for another post.

Updates, Great Things Happening for Us!

            Question I've had is where's Chris? I just heard from him this morning and talking time away from running the day to day of ChrisBOnTheWeb Media and right now Brianna, Larry and I continue to work on what we are doing. I know he's had a rough last week or two and we worry about him on a regular basis. Just hope he continues to stay committed to CBOTW Media. However there is great things happening for ChrisBOnTheWeb Media! Chris has gotten a lot of great news moving forward.

           What great things that are happening? 1) Chris and Larry will be recording this week for The CBOTW Show and the image has been floating around on social media and the two of them will be recording Home Alone and Home Alone 2 podcasts! Which is exciting and I knew this piece of information right off the bat so I made that image, on the right. Also Chris is INDEED returning to the Tyrone Parade of Lights this year! Very excited news indeed and this year has been a bunch of surprises for CBOTW Media this and I am really impressed we have started going back to certain events. That is the post for today folks, I'll talk to you all tomorrow as I am taking over for him all week.

End of The Week Updates [11-18-2023]

                   It's time for the end of the week updates but before I get into it a little fun fact, 9 years ago today, Chris posted his first ever podcast on this very day. Very cool piece of CBOTW Media history on The Chris B. Podcast. That sure dates us way back in the day almost 10 years ago. Anyways the updates: 

Entertainment Man Podcast: Going back into the style this week for a change, the way Chris did these updates but he has recorded a pile of episodes for back on Wednesday and this Sunday. I believe he's got it scheduled to premiere on Sunday I think. I haven't looked yet. 

The CBOTW Show: As he has mentioned he; switch days with The CBOTW Show so it doesn't align with Entertainment Man Podcast's bonus as 3 is enough to stress him out, he's been trying to lower his stress levels. Speaking of that, he's officially now typing up the Power Rangers Podcast notes and finishing it up for a potential recording sessions this upcoming Thursday coming up. He's also decided to postpone Dino Fury till December 21st, 2023 but has to be discussed between him and Larry.

             That is the updates for the week. Other than that, he's readjusted the website a bit and my little sister Brianna has joined us helping us wherever we need her on the team. Also she can be found on our new shiny Discord Server. Have a great rest of your weekend and week ahead and I will be back on the normal Friday post for another end of the week updates.

End of The Week Updates [11-11-2023]

       Another week has wrapped up for us but first, I want us to remember those who we lost during any of the wars, World War I, World War II, Korean War, Vietnam War or any of the wars that has gone on the last 20 + years. We will never forget.

     So this week has been chaos for us, from Chris switching gears to Power Rangers to really get it done for the 23rd and that is the ultimate goal and he wants to get both seasons done by Monday or Tuesday so he can start typing up the notes on the other computer behind him on the right side. Also he has been busy with The Royal Winter Fair content and plans to post up a ton of stuff from the day which spans to Sunday on social media then one more a podcast that he says he's going to post to YouTube but not 100% sure as the bonus episodes are still 100% Audio ONLY at the moment. 

       So it is I think he's doing The Great Outdoors end of next week actually of my knowledge what he's told me but all I know is 3 podcasts next week, 2 on Monday and 1 on Wednesday at the most. Also fair warning he may pop up at 1 pm ET on Facebook.com/ChrisBOnTheWeb for a stream but depends if he is busy and has time, also when he gets back as he was suppose to be back in Toronto on personal business but that has been moved to Thursday. Anyway that is the post for the week, I will speak to you all on Saturday as next week is indeed another 6 days of blogging for us, so have a good weekend and week, talk to you all in the community and I will be back here next Saturday for another "End of the Week Updates."

Mark, Community Director

Officially on the New Schedule!

            After last week was an appalling mess in schedule, I start this week with a fresh mind and aspect to what needs to be done this week. One of those things being Power Rangers and already between 5 and 10 episodes completed now. I hope to finish it all of it up by tomorrow so Wednesday, I can start the next season and finish it by Saturday so this way I can start typing to really push the 23rd actually happening. This week I have a lot more time on my hands minus Tuesday, possibly Wednesday and indefinitely Thursday, but between Tuesday and Wednesday I will have time to work on things before my outing for the days. Thursday I will be out of studio at an event in Toronto. 

             I will talk more about that tomorrow on the blog. However this week starts a brand new week with phase 1 with the new schedule for blogs & podcasts. As I said last week blogs and Entertainment Man Podcast are on the normal days but Entertainment Man's bonus episodes are moving a day back to Wednesdays @ 1 pm ET. Now as you guys remember when we brought The CBOTW Show it was on two different days, one day on my own (Tuesdays) and the other one with Larry (On Friday's) I know this means him and I will be rotating weeks, there will be weeks I'm not alone while maintaining a every 2nd week schedule? That's going to be quite a handful I know. However it will be easier as we continue to progress and post to our new schedule. Anyways thanks for reading the blog today and I will as always talk to you tomorrow!

Chris

End of The Week Updates [11-04-2023]

                   It is time for the end of the week updates. I know Chris has been off kilter for the podcasts this week and he's had to deal with the COVID shot this week which knocked him out for 2 days straight but yesterday got so much done and finished which is amazing that he got it finished. He is aiming to work on Power Rangers Beast Morphers all weekend long and he's so fired up to getting it done finally with a brand new schedule that has taken place. Speaking of which we've sort of now adopted the new schedule ahead of next week's change over in our schedule and I think he's wanted to actually change over the schedule sooner due to the overwhelming amount of episodes which this week things really got derailed all together. 

                    Next week is a new week for us and Chris is actually at an event "The Royal Winter Fair" in Toronto. He is excited about returning to the Royal but worried he's gonna get COVID but I doubt it will happen as it won't be as busy on the Thursday till later on in the evening and he's not attending the Royal Horse Show as it is in the evening this year. On top of that he has to finish up Power Rangers Beast Morphers by end of next week if he wants to actually start typing up the notes and getting it up on time. Nothing else happening, however I am starting to put together the schedule page for 2024 for 10th anniversary and already created the drop down as we will be releasing soon, actually November 20th, 2023 for the walk down memory lane, December 1st, 2023 and December 15th, 2023 the 10th Anniversary Schedule.  I hope you have a fantastic weekend and next will be a 6 day blog schedule once again as we have a ton of content coming your way and I will talk to you all next week.

Content Schedule Is Being Adjusted in 2024!

        With 2024 slowly coming to an end... We have changed the schedule for 2024 and please note changes are in bold and italics:      

Sundays: 1 pm ET: Entertainment Man Podcast (YouTube/Audio ONLY) Not being affected for 2024, same schedule as before. 

Monday - Fridays: 11 am ET: Daily Blog Not being affected for 2024, same schedule as before. Only change is Saturdays being added to the lineup.

Wednesdays: Entertainment Man Podcast (YouTube/Audio ONLY, Posted ONLY) Only change on this podcast it is being added to YouTube so the podcast is fully on YouTube 

Friday's (Every second week), 1 pm EST: The CBOTW Show- TV or Movie w/ Chris or both Larry and I. (Audio ONLY) This will be a rotation between my solo episodes on this podcasts and Larry and myself 

Saturdays:   11 am ET: Blog post Been tested throughout the last year or two and has become popular enough that people want it back. 

                    Time TBA: (Sporadically): Facebook Stream

The CBOTW Show will be sticking to one schedule and rotate with Power Rangers/Movies and other TV Shows with Larry. This is a better schedule. I wish we could put this schedule into affect immediately but we have a lot riding on us this year first of all so the schedule right now is SPORADIC. This is a better and more solid schedule moving forward and it is important to have a more solid foundation moving forward and everything was clumped too close together. Excited for the necessary changes we need to continue to be a successful Media group in 2024 and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow! 

Chris

The CBOTW Show Future on YouTube?

           As you may know we've been conducting polls that has made us really think about things. One of them is this blog which is changing as you know, but the other thing was the move of The CBOTW Show, with two podcasts currently on the move at this moment, it is remotely impossible for us to work on two channels from week to week. The other thing I want to add to this post is The CBOTW Show is every 2nd week and isn't in my criteria to make the move to YouTube. I know I could ask my team to help me run it and all but I already have Entertainment Man Podcast's channel to run at the time. 

            Whenever Entertainment Man Podcast stops which I am NOT planning to anytime or any day soon but if it was to happen, I'd consider going weekly with The CBOTW Show and then I'd actually consider actually doing YouTube as an option but for now Entertainment Man Podcast on both YouTube/Audio ONLY and this podcast The CBOTW Show on Audio ONLY in the meantime as we continue to build up the amount of episodes each and every week we post episodes to both of the podcasts. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Chris

End of The Week Updates [10-27-2023]

           It is time for the end of the week updates and it has been a very interesting week for us. Chris has been trying and trying to get Power Rangers done so him and Larry can start recording again and finish off this journey but the issues are still riddled with problems so he is going to be working on it this regardless no stopping nothing going to watch the series. This has become a priority as the podcast has been on hiatus for nearly 5 months now. We've been asked where is the podcast and we have had to give the same answer that it's on a hiatus. Even, I do not know what he's thinking but it is being worked on. 

               He has been weaving in and out of Entertainment Man which has an interview today @ 1 pm ET. I look forward to hearing this interview on his podcast this weekend. Will be a tight schedule for editing but I know he is definitely up for the challenge. Our ChrisBOnTheWeb Media Fan Page is now at 75 followers. We thank you all for the love and support you have given use over the years and please continue to support us as we continue to grow and evolve with our podcasts and content. Also on our private Facebook group not so much private has a powerful great small group of people for behind the scenes and fun polls and discussion please also join the group as well as our fan page. but as always I speak to you all next week. 

Enjoy your weekend!

Mark

Getting Into a good rhythm with the schedule!

             The scheduled podcasts have been starting to flow a lot better then normal even though I'd like to actually have The CBOTW Show edited by Sunday night by mid day Monday but in time that will happen. I have to remember Sundays I have the premiere for Entertainment Man Podcast plus having to record The CBOTW Show so it is a bit difficult but hoping this weekend to get into the rhythm of things and finish off the month of October strong to quite strong as winner of Big Brother 10, Dan would say. 

           Also I am still not on the proper schedule for Wednesdays which is normally the bonus episode of the podcast and regular but this week is a bit different as there is no bonus episode this week and there is an interview scheduled for Friday so it's different for this week technically. But I know I will have it all done in time for Friday and Sunday as I'm in a very good rhythm right now and more time to work on Power Rangers a bit more. However it is important that I keep this good rhythm going moving forward and Wednesday will be a day for me recording Friday's episode which won't take too long to record and edit depending if I end up recording over 30 minutes long. Anyways that is today's post and I will speak to you all tomorrow. 

Chris 

The CBOTW Show will be back to the old schedule

             After today, The CBOTW Show will be returning to an every 2nd week schedule as this month we were focused on Halloween movies. We may go every week again for December during the entire month as it will be Christmas month but I will think about it. However November it will be only every second week in November so we are looking at Tuesday, November 14th, 2023 which funny enough is ChrisBOnTheWeb Media's 9th anniversary which is hilarious I am posting up an episode on that particular day but hey it lands on there.

            The two days for the podcast in November are Nov 14th & Nov 28th which are both on Tuesdays but you probably can expect a Power Rangers somewhere in the middle there I'm pretty sure. I have started to work a lot more on the Power Rangers to finish this up and get it done so we can prepare for Cosmic Fury in the new year. As for December as I said it will have to depend how I am feeling and if I am on that good role with episodes as I am now more then likely yes I will be recording once a week again and never know that could be part of the rotation at this time every year. Anyways that is the post for today and I will chat with you all tomorrow.

Chris

End of The Week Updates [10-20-2023]

             Well, I am certainly not Kelsie. She has made the decision to resign from the team, so as you may all know from the posts especially on Facebook, I have been named the next community manager even though it seems like old community managers seem to be coming back all the time. But I can guarantee, I am here to stay on a permanent basis. Now to the updates: Chris has been so busy with events and changing things around the community to a point he's not yet even worked on Power Rangers. He's been stalling up to yesterday he has actually gotten some episodes done and today as well and he hope to have it all watched by end of the weekend to start typing so him and Larry can start recording in the new layout of the studio. 

           As you know and this happened prior to me coming back onto the team as Community Manager, Site Admin & Graphic Designer which we came up with a better title called "Community Director" which will entails what I mentioned, answering the emails, work on the website and graphical ends which isn't too often but weekly mostly. Also the insults towards both Entertainment Man Podcast & The CBOTW Show is getting old. Chris is fed up and he's been threatening to discontinue the podcasts. We do not want that as that has been the heart and soul into ChrisBOnTheWeb Media lately. Those are the updates and please do not be so rough on us, we really don't care about the ratings its more about the views and feedback we go by. We've had a lot of great feedback on the show and the views have been there. Any insults will result in being blocked, just a friendly reminder and I will speak to you all next week for another end of the week updates.

- Mark, Community Director

Ideas are flowing right now!

               There is so much going on in my head right now. I mean idea after idea keeping coming. Monday proved it. I mean I was getting ideas up the Ying yang. Which is good though. I want to have as many ideas as possible because with Entertainment Man Podcast it's all about longevity, I want it around as long as I possibly can and it will be around for a long time, don't worry. I am working all the time on brand new ideas and the list keeps going on and on and right now I am writing new episodes that could take me to the end of the year at least saving what I had for next year.

              The CBOTW Show is starting to shape up. I have been getting ideas and a week tomorrow please expect an additional Halloween podcast and it's not a movie it's from a very, very popular series called "The Simpsons" and it is from one of their Halloween episodes where Homer eats the forbidden donut. I have to dig into that today at some point so I know exactly what season it is. Anyways that is the blog post for today, have a great weekend as Mark will be taking over the blog for tomorrow's usual end of the week updates and I will talk to you all on Monday!

Chris

What's on The Timeline for 2024

            I know there has been questions what the timeline for 2024 looks like and this is what it can look like for 2024:

Entertainment Man Podcast: You can most definitely expect the Podcast back in the lineup for 2024 and it already been mentioned it would be back even for 2025 as well it's planned to return in 2025. Will remain on the days Sundays @ 1 pm EDT (YouTube/Audio ONLY) & every 2nd Thursday @ 1 pm EDT (Audio ONLY)

The CBOTW Show: Will be seeing some changes as with the end of Cosmic Fury we will be starting to work on another series preparing notes for it down the road. However you can expect Cosmic Fury in January/February then I will also be covering the seasons of Corner Gas which is Canadian show. I will be doing one off podcasts for Power Rangers probably with Larry and movies but nothing too strenuous. Later in the year I plan on Full House Seasons. There will be two days an episode will air and will probably rotate per week every 2nd Tuesday with yours truly on my own and every other Friday with Larry and I when we have episode to put out there.

         That is the timeline for next year as we continue on to grow both podcasts and the timeline moving forward into 2024 and things could change for the podcasts but will see how things are going to go. Anyways that is the post for today and have a great weekend and I will talk to you all on Monday as Kelsie will be covering the end of the week updates tomorrow.

                          

I See Larry Tomorrow since July.

             Tomorrow I am reunited with my right hand man, Senior Producer & Co Host, Larry since the end of July which was the last time we saw each other last. So it will be nice to see him once again even though it will be a social gathering for him and I as I am just getting into the swing of things with Power Rangers Podcast and getting things ready for November and we're probably a month away from recording at this point as I am aiming but will be adding December if I need to to finish up the seasons we need to finish. 

            One thing Larry doesn't know is that January 2024 we will be recording Cosmic Fury which is indeed the final season in the series we need to finish and there is still rumors there will be a 31st season but nothing is in iron pled at this moment as I said nothing is confirmed but I know him and I will get into a discussion about that too I'm sure. I know I probably will have some kind of update for him where I'm at but end of the week or by the end of the weekend for both Beast Morphers seasons so next week I can sit and record. That is practically the update I will be giving him this week. So an update will be given to him on that and we will be discussing things as well. However that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Chris 

End of The Week Updates [09-29-2023]

               Another crazy week has concluded and first big update is Chris is no longer doing end of the week updates and I will be taking over the reigns each and every week to lower down the stress levels he is going through. He's been extremely busy with both Entertainment Man Podcast and The CBOTW Show plus getting Power Rangers underway he's just been super, super busy behind the scenes. Yes he has been online along with myself and even Larry are working non stop to get things done. 

             The Discord Team has been keeping an eye on things while our team have been working constantly behind the scenes as Chris stated it is all hands on deck right now as both Chris and Larry want to finish up Power Rangers so they can prepare to finish up with Season 30 in 2024 as that is the plan. I know in January, Chris is preparing to work on Ghostwriter series from the 1990's as a nostalgia for both Chris and Larry growing up. So again, it is all hands on deck, we have Power Rangers wrapping up, 10th anniversary planning going on. Filming 5 min segments from The Entertainment Man Talk Show, so we are a very busy team. That is the updates for today, did them a bit different from how Chris does it. Have a great weekend and I will talk to you at the end of next week!

Kelsie  

CBOTW Media is Focusing on 2 Podcasts

             With all the changes with ChrisBOnTheWeb Media, all 3 of us on the team have decided to primarily focus on Entertainment Man Podcast and The CBOTW Show. Things have actually done really well and why change things up at this moment? Like really? If it is working then there is no need for change. We wanna focus on continuing to producing both of these podcasts as it has really become something special to us and very very popular. 

             Plus I do have a ton of 10th anniversary stuff to plan for 2024 and that will be mainly my focus as well so I have a ton to do over the course of the next year to prepare for what is going to be a very busy busy year with podcasts, blogs, events and 10th anniversary but we have it all under control. Just take things one thing at a time that matters and I have my amazing team to help me out with everything. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow for another post. 

Chris
