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 [03-14-2025]

         It has been an interesting week for ChrisBOnTheWeb Media but lots of big things on the horizon for us. The interview he was on this week on Nick's Podcast "The Infinite Abilities Podcast" we will be on the lookout for the episode coming out. There is another interview Chris was on he is waiting for news when it is going up on all the platforms. Between his appearances, he's actually added Moderators to our Discord Server which you can find on the main page of www.ChrisBOnTheWeb.com under Discord logo by clicking the Discord Logo. If you have an account. 

        Also he's been working on the website "Entertainment Man Podcast" & "The CBOTW Show" pages and getting it back online as the players have been finicky lately. I do not have any idea what will happen to "Everything About Reality TV" in our archives page. There is no ETA when both of our current podcast pages will be returning but he's working on it don't worry! I am always on Twitter @SaraTheCOO, Facebook Fan Page www.facebook.com/ChrisBOnTheWeb and our Discord: https://discord.com/invite/VSfAaarR He is recording today for this weekend's episode. Not much on the list this weekend but he is planning to work on Ghostwriter this weekend and start of next week working on Corner Gas Finally and hopefully get recording at the start of April or even sooner. I hope you all have a fantastic weekend and will be back at the end of the next week.

Starting More Work Tomorrow on ChrisBOnTheWeb.com!

                I know I have talked about it last week but tomorrow I will be starting to work on ChrisBOnTheWeb.com some more. I know the phases sort of stopped for now but I will be getting back into it in November as we will be shifting things around on our website after 10th Anniversary events. I know we are busy 24-7 and we never seem to stop to have fun. I want to stream but haven't had the time to lately. Kind of why the schedule is currently random at times.

                 However this is all good news because I have struggled with having Entertainment Man and The CBOTW Show pages down for what now feels like a week and it has been a week now since the on going issues with archive.org. So tomorrow I am going to spend some time on Entertainment Man Podcast page done tomorrow. Then back to watching movies for The CBOTW Show next week as it's our final week for Halloween as we will be off for 2 weeks and considered just taking a break for the month of November from The CBOTW Show as it's really starting to become an unscheduled show. For The CBOTW Show's podcast we will be working on it sometime in the first week in November. Still pending if we are indeed merging the Reality TV but we might just do it and we may end up just bringing The CBOTW Show over to podcasts.com and just wait out the wait on it. We'll see but anyways I will talk more about that tomorrow on another post when I return home from my mini vaca or overnight trip.

Little About Myself And My Involvement With Chris's Website

            Hello, my name is Savannah and I am Chris's website monkey... I mean Website Admin. I do everything from coding in the new features and pages to his website. I am in the South Western Ontario Region so so couple of hours from boss man. I do web design for a living and self employed doing all of this and really happy to be part of Team Chris B On The Web, helping him grow this amazing website. When he hired me on to replace the other site admin, he told me he gets a couple of hundred views a day and I can see that from the admin panel in the back side of the website which is incredible. Especially the fact what we are about to do with the overhaul of the now former and defunct Extra's tab that is now Events and will have a list of events he has been to which he has explained. Let me explain my job, my main job is to build the pages on his website, make adjustments according to his request which I admit the about page changes wasn't his idea, was mine entirely and he loves what I did to it. I have access to the source code of the pages, especially the menu bar code and the CSS code, so I can tweak anything if he wishes but trying to keep things the same.

             I do not blog too often on here but have the full access to the blog if he needs to step aside for something for a day or so, but my main job is to work on his website when it needs to be worked on. Also I am in charge of posting up content to the website meaning the podcasts you see on Entertainment Man Podcast and Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast  every week and when it airs on the website. That is like the most important part of my job and keeps him stress free knowing that things are on track for the website. I am glad to be a part of his website even if it is just the 2 of us only since some either quit or were fired for their actions and to be honest this is a great duo, sorry trio, forgot to add Larry as Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast is a big part of this website and his community. I wanna thank Chris for giving me this time to formally introduce myself to you all and I'm sure you will see me around the community.

What Is The Plan For The Former Extra's Drop Down Menu?

                      You probably wondering what the plan for the "Former Extra's Drop Down Menu?" Well the plan is we will be using it and Savannah and I already have changed over the name to Events and the Tab is currently disabled and it is not dropping down at this current time. This will be like this for a while now, I'm like talking about all summer, that tab will be disabled. Work will be done on the website throughout the entire summer on that new feature and it will take her and I sometime to actually build up the pages and the events that will be shown when things get back to normal and the events in more a temporarily hiatus for the time being. These are the events I plan on going to and the events after this pandemic and finally events on temporary hiatus status:

Going To Post Pandemic:                       On Hiatus:                         Questionable:

Maple Festival May                      Polish/Ukrainian Festival                            Food Truck                                                                The Royal Winter Fair in Toronto                 Rib Fest            Apple Festival                              Toronto Christmas Market                                                       

Tyrone Parade of Lights                                       

                  As you can see there are at least 7 - 8 events I go to on a yearly basis is quite a good amount, not as much as I had Oshawa Santa Claus Parade and Oshawa Tree Lighting but nowhere near pleased with the two events as it's changed so much over the years. Also I also use to do the Autism Celebration as well and since it's not on my list anymore I have removed 3 events on top of the 7. Originally I had 10 - 11 events a year. So the events I am going to post pandemic, is only 3 to start with, however Food Truck is questionable as not sure if it will be in the plans for Bowmanville events but will have to wait and see when events start back up more then likely in 2022, maybe 2023 for me, let's see how I feel by then. Rib Fest is a bit bigger of an event down at the lake and I probably won't have that comfortable level. So The Questionable one will be under the archived events on the archive page for pictures. The one on Hiatus will be under Hiatus on that page as well. The events that will be active events under the archives and will be activated once events start back up. The only item that will be activated under events on the website's main page or anywhere on the website will be Archives that will be accessible on the website and yes you can view the pictures by clicking on the Icons that her and I are adding to the website. This will be all completely hopefully this year as I cannot promise an ETA on this but it has started to be worked on. I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Website Progressing Well!

              Well we have come a long way from the start of this project. Chris and I thought it would take weeks months to create the entire new menu bar, add pages and what not. I have today, created all the new pages, that special side project and I can say I am finished with that and all we have to is upload what we have planned with it.  Now the next step is I re did the entire archives for the podcasts and is active at this moment.  Also "The Team" and "Frequently Asked Questions" have been created and will be the first thing released when the new Menu Bar is being released which will be in the next week or so. I have to work on the CSS code still and compare notes to the previous CSS so it will help. I should have an update on this by the weekend. We're on the move for what is going to be a bigger and better ChrisBOnTheWeb.com and it is truly amazing the big ideas we have to help him become a bigger and better content creator. 

 

             The Website has OFFICIALLY launched the new menu even though we have to reset because I really screwed up to a point Chris wasn't speaking to me for a good 45 mins to an hour but all is good, I'm lucky he didn't unadmin me from the site itself as I kept working on it fixed the entire website and made it better and impressed the boss man in the process. You do not know how bad I felt destroying his entire website setup. So with the Menu bar stress done, we move into the next phase which an announcement is coming a week Friday as Chris continues to work on this top secret project. I know what it is but not allowed to say. You can see a Coming Soon on the bar at the top of the website so we have already in place and ready for the phase of releasing some old content for you OG fans out there. It's coming along and I wanted to update you guys on these plans. I will be talking to you guys Sunday for the weekly updates.

2021 and What Is Planned for ChrisBOnTheWeb!

              2021 is going to be promising for the website and content! Today I am going to expose what the plans are and I actually been hiding a ton of stuff from you guys. Right now there is one thing I cannot tell you guys yet and that will be for Matt to tell you guys down the road on the 15th of January to be exact. Anyways here is what is in stored for 2021:

Entertainment Man Podcast: Returns on Sunday, January 10th, 2021 at the normal time @ 1 pm EST with a brand new season and the podcasts 2nd season to be exact and got monthly interviews lined up over the next few months.

Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast: As you guys know there is one episode remaining before the hiatus and you know the Hiatus will be a lengthy Hiatus for Larry and I but the part that you do not know and I am going to tell you guys we are planning to return in June. This gives us 6 months to get ourselves straightened out with Podcasts and the plan we are having is June for SPD and Mystic Force, October for Operation Overdrive and Jungle Fury and December for RPM and Samurai. We will then be back in January 2022 for a new collab and we should be by then to be back on track.

Possibly Another Collaboration Podcast: Another collaboration Podcast is on the horizon and I have spoken with my potential Co-Host and I am excited for a new opportunity. We do not know the entire details as of yet. It is Reality TV related and a Big Brother Collaboration Podcast. Also it will be an seasonal thing kind of like Larry and I's podcast but again no details are available as of yet as it is in the planning stages. Don't worry non of the other podcasts will be affected whatsoever. 

Events:  I am not going to say anything on this topic but right now I am playing everything by ear at this moment and with the Corona Virus still very much a thing, there is no events really planned at this moment and I do not wanna take a risk. Right now we are currently in Lockdown at this moment and no plans to actually  for events till things really settle down. So I am not going to say anything but at this point more then likely no events at this time. I hope this clears things up a bit.

Studio Lockdown: This is another thing that I cannot really say as I do not know when Larry will be allowed to come back to the studio and honestly it is quite difficult to pinpoint the plan is moving forward but any podcast will be done online.


            There are the plans for 2021 and I am sure this year will be amazing and I know I left out the site work but that information is coming in the next few weeks in the middle of the month but when it is time, Matt will explain the plans with the website and the enormous change that is going to happen. Anyways I will talk to you all on Monday with regular posts again.

Would Chris Really Move Website Providers?

               With the recent issues with the back side of the website which is fixed now and things seem to be fine with the website now but I know he went off on the Social's about the issues. I think more then likely it was to address the issues with the website and trust me he wasn't happy about the on going issues with the website. These are the two things that really ticked him off and kind of made him think about a free website again:

- Keywords not sticking: There was a problem when you entered the keywords it wouldn't remain in there. Not anymore anytime we put in keywords it seems to be fixed. For the last I don't know month or two or so that issue seemed to be the # 1 problem where we had to enter it not once, not twice but a few times.

- Blog posts Getting erased at the half way mark of the post: Every time we put in a post, we ended up losing half of the post so our posts were partially dumped as Chris put it technically which is why end of last week we ended up not posting on Friday and almost ended up not posting all weekend long but Google and Blogger seemed to fix the issue very quickly.

- Google Adsense suspending us: Apparently we were suspended for self clicking ads when all the staff and myself have ad blocker on 24-7 so we did not do that so we have ended up being suspended for 30 days which is fine because Chris has removed the ads code for now and he may just delete his adsense and find another way to earn money off the website but we'll see.


                 With all that being said, every thing is fixed and we are good to go again with posting and all the two issues we have been experiencing is fixed now on. When they updated the layout of the blogger interface it was very buggy and the recent fix has helped and every thing seems very normal again. So Chris is not moving websites. He has put in the long hours to the menu bar and working on perfecting the CSS code to the website and building numerous pages on the website and also building up on the viewership which is like 200 - 300 a day now which is crazy to be honest. Plus he is locked in with his domain for little over 3 more years so he cannot really make a move at this point and I think he will probably renew with blogger as it has been a reasonable price for the .com domain.

Website Menu Bar Was Tweaked A Bit...

               As you know, ChrisBOnTheWeb & ChrisBOnTheWeb.com is always rapidly changing. There is a reason behind the Menu bar looking different under the Tab, "Podcasts" However I cannot say anything yet as we need to tie up the loose ends for this project. Trust me I had a heck of a night with frustrations and what not working on this and I thought it had to do with the menu coding itself but it wasn't. After 2 hours, I was ready to just give up and force the project to one certain platforms but now that has been resolved now, it's green lit. I really wanna tell you guys what we got in-stored and even some of our members on the Discord Server got to see what we were doing technically. However once we get confirmation and the host is setup and been tested then we will be announcing where you can listen to him on the air and yes I said he. Let's just say it's an old friend from the chat website I use to be involved. Anyways I can hint all I want really. I know you wanna know but soon you all will know whats up and the plan that is ahead for us. 


              However the changes are live here on the website and just scroll over podcasts and you will see the big gap which in time will be filled in. Please patient with us while we continue to plan and get things setup with our new hosts. Mind you this menu bar is still in BETA Testing right now and we're ironing out all the bugs and issues. We're new to the entire building your own and the entire CSS Code thing so please do be patient with us while we deal with all the bugs and issues. Please do send us a message or email thecbotwteam@gmail.com if you see any bugs or issues with the website so we can take a look into it. We haven't had complaints but with the recent work we put into the website last night, you never know when a bug will appear on our website.  Anyways I will see you guys tomorrow in our next post.

Website Is COMPLETED!

                 As you can tell with my recent post on social media, we have officially completed the website work. Every page is up and running and the entire menu bar is functional and working but just the menu isn't too responsive but it works at some point and going to start work in the coming weeks but honestly that is for my website admin to do as most of the work and design of the menu is complete. As you can see there are two Sections: 'Everything About Reality TV" which houses a ton of pages of podcasts we do.  We finally have our "Other Podcasts" which even includes Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast, Entertainment Man Podcast and the Archives of past podcasts. Trust me we can house more and you never know what is in-stored for the websites moving forward, new projects, new hosts. It took us weeks to get the menu to function and drop down but alas we got it working. Still a couple of bugs in it but in time we will get it working. You can use your arrows and it does help for now. 


                 During the construction phase of the page, noticed the number of views have been up lately which is truly a good thing. I looked at the pages and they all have gotten good views. The Hours we put in, the lack of sleep we have had to endured it was indeed worth the hours of hard work and dedication. I'm surprised this big project took us weeks and got it done. Took a lot of patience and we had a couple of bugs to iron out on the pages as it wouldn't save but that is besides the point as everything is now fine. I hope you guys enjoy the rebuilt menu bar that we worked hard in the last couple of weeks and we're excited for what is next for the website. Any issues, concerns or questions please contact is and we can answer any question or concern you may have.

Chris B On The Web Updates [05-11-2020]

                     I know I was going to start doing this but I have decided to keep it to the blog as usual and talk about other topics on Entertainment Man Podcast which I will talk about. There is a lot going on and emotions running high this week with this being Finale Week for us for Everything About Reality TV and again I will cover it. In this update, I will provide you guys the updates on everything that is going on with us and the website.

1) Website: This is the first crucial step for us and we have been so busy with other projects and this weekend myself and my website Admin were suppose to work on the website but got busy with family stuff and especially Mother's Day yesterday. However I worked a bit of it before bed last night and working on The Amazing Race Page to get that one completed. We currently have the Survivor, Big Brother and Big Brother Canada pages created and done and not sure if all of them are active as of yet but we will be checking soon as we finish both Amazing Race and Amazing Race Canada pages to ensure they are all active and running and with a post that it is indeed active on the website. Then we will be jumping away briefly to be working on Entertainment Man Podcast Page, then jumping back to "Everything About Reality TV" Podcast pages with Off Season Podcasts and 2 shows: "Music City CMT" & "Celeb Big Brother US" pages that were covered on the podcast. Then finally the archives page on the far right side. This will complete up the website page work and we will have an official announcement the site work is done. Right now you guys are working off the links page right now on www.chrisbontheweb.com/p/everything-about-reality-tv.html which is going to be eventually a discontinued page and will not be active on the website anymore.

2) Entertainment Man Podcast: As you guys noticed, the Re-Launch date for this podcast being weekly is June 1st, 2020 at 1 pm EST. The reason why is so we can finish up the site work and also fix any of the platforms the podcast may be on. So this can take up a few weeks of my time to get it fixed on any platform the podcast is on. I believe, ITunes, TuneIn.com, Player FM are all up to par and not sure about Spotify and I do not even think it is on Spotify and has been removed so I will have to put that on my list of platforms to put it on. Either way, I am close to the Re-launch but still a couple of things to do to ensure the platformsit's on and up to date as I never told em that I changed the RSS Feed as the main feed was originally deleted. Good News is I still have the episodes that I did record and are on the external hard drive of mine in storage.

3) Everything About Reality TV Podcast: As you know this is Finale Week for us and we will be on a bit of a hiatus. I wanted to say, we are recording an episode LIVE on our YouTube channel Wednesday night @ 11:15 pm EST to make it officially launched but having second thoughts as we will be on a hiatus for a while. I need to talk to Larry, Billy & Chris (Reality Teas) about doing some Off Season Content for both Video and Audio, Live and even video and Audio (Pre-Recorded) where I can either post it or even do a Premiere but might wait for Premieres for a while. Either way I need to talk to them and that is the reason we will be off air for a week or two to get things in order for what is next and hopefully we find something out Big Brother US Season 22 and Amazing Race Canada Season 8. 


                  There is the updates that I have for you guys and we continue to work on the site and content. I know I didn't mention Power Rangers Podcast but here is the thing as of today, I will be working on Time Force today and getting it on a role as July we are suppose to be recording and need to get watching this season and Wild Force if we are to make the Mid July target but when I got updates, I will give you guys more updates. For right now these are the current updates and what is being worked on and with extra time to really work hard on the collaboration Podcasts and get it ready for taping. Anyways I will see you in the next post tomorrow at our usual time.

Everything About Reality TV Page Work Gone Wrong! [What's The Plan Now?]

               As you guys know, I have been working on putting episodes on the website which is a ton of work honestly. However in the end the website page just lagged the heck out of my browser and I think it just overloaded it. So this morning I spent hours removing the episodes from the website and we have went back to the links which I think is better as you can choose what link you wanna listen from and this way it is not bogging down the website at all either and I think this is the better of the decisions. I honestly can say this was one of the stupidest ideas I had this year and I could of kept it as it is and been working on the Off Season stuff for the podcast which is coming out next week so I have wasted a very valuable time with my time and honestly I could of been typing up Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue which has been on standby recently and I need to get back to this as we're gunning hard for a February 2020 recording session for both Larry and I. Which I will have an update for you guys on the studio itself and hopefully there will be two within a  few or several days apart. Anyways back to the podcast the links are the best and it doesn't lag the entire site and actually loads a lot quicker.


             Anyways, I apologize why the page has been down for such a very long time now but it is accessible by going to https://www.chrisbontheweb.com/p/everything-about-reality-tv.html and it has every all 14 links and that is right 2 of the links, Podtail and Podchaser has once again picked us back up with the podcast which is so awesome to hear! I am proud to be getting the podcast back on some of the platforms that the podcast was on despite that we were on our way out the door and I am just happy that we are now staying on the Airwaves and aiming towards 300 episodes and the 5th Year on the air. We are trying new things but in the end it is an trial and error and we made a honest mistake and all we can do is learn from our mistake and move forward. One note that tomorrow I will be recording 3 podcasts, 2 Off Season Podcasts and the Survivor: Winners At War Preview Podcast. So the page is running and if you guys see any issues please use the contact page to contact us or even try and contact us through FB, Twitter or Instagram if you find an issue. We appreciate you feedback at all times and we improve things as we see fits. I will see you in tomorrow's blog post.

ChrisBOnTheWeb.com Is Back Up And Running Today!

               After 3 weeks of the that stinkin website down... LOL, it's back up finally and boy I had my concerns with it re-launching after quite the struggle with problems during the re-build process and it was an interesting experience working with problems left right and center but rest assure you, I never gave up at all and today marks 3.5 weeks of it being down is done... The wait is over, the site is up and running. In tonight's blog post I will highlighting and talking about the changes made to the website and why I made those necessary changes and also will be talking about what has stayed the same for the website.


               First the changes that were made to the website were the blog page which use to be under the tab "Blogs" which is no longer there, since I do not blog on the other website that offered me a spot but I pulled out due to circumstances. Next, I changed the contact page to an email address , due to abuse of the form and let me tell you, I think I honestly made a mistake putting that form up as it was nothing abused and spammed constantly so the email is directly on that page so I took some action towards it and I decided to pull the form off and replacing it with the contact email, hoping this abuse will stop and I think it will as I can block email addresses when there is abuse. So I got the full power. This also includes I got the power to "IP Ban" people who wanna be abusive within the website. I will not tolerate and I hate to bring this up on here but enough is enough. This website outage came at the right time, so I, the website owner or admin of the site can make things better, improve the quality of the website and I think I did that very well.  My image at the top of the website next to the banner and also the "About Chris" page image was also changed to that same image like the top of the website. Also updated my Bio on the About page to recent information and easier to understand then before. 


               What is staying as it is? Well first of all, I am leaving the podcasts. interviews under the On-Demand tab if you roll your mouse over top On-Demand when the website re-opens tonight it will pop up with interviews, if you roll interviews it will list the interviews I have done and so forth, so that hasn't changes whatsoever.  Home Page still the same, but other then that a lot of changes and tweaks made to the website has been made and trust me I am excited to see what you guys think of these changes that have made and hopefully this makes things easier for not just me but you guys as well! 

Have a great Afternoon!

ChrisBOnTheWeb.com Update

            It has been a crazy last 3 weeks since ChrisBOnTheWeb.com and I found out there was problems in the back end of things with the server the website is on having a few issues, also the website builder had some malfunctioning going on, then the website going to sleep when it usually is down for the hour every night at 3 am EST, which I had to deal with that in the afternoon, which made have some doubts, if I should re-open the site but I promised you guys I wouldn't lay down and die on this website. I work everyday to ensure it is running smoothly and come November, change will be coming for ChrisBOnTheWeb.com as we transition to a new provider and one provider only not a domain with the domain provider and then the web builder, I got one lined up and excited to be moving over in late 2018, early 2019. 


             I admit, my stress levels haven't been great lately but you have to admit, you have to give me credit when credit is due, I am a fighter and I have fought to the end to get the website back up and running and being a success again, like it was when it was running smoothly for months on end there since September of last year. and I hope it will be like this by come March, the site will be on a steady pace to success because the amount of site visitors tells me people love my website and people are always popping onto the website. 4 days from the time this post goes up tonight, 4 days and counting till the website goes back up online once again and I am ready to have this website be the talk of social media once again.


             Honestly I wish this didn't have to take 3.5 long weeks to get back up but "great things come, to those who wait" or "patience is a virtue" and you guys have been nothing but showing your love and support with these last stressful last 3.5 weeks of hell for me and this wait will be well worth it. Not only I re-coded the entire website but I tweaked 2 pages and two of the graphics. The first thing I changed was removing CBOTW Blog from the Blogs tab and CBOTW Blog now stands alone compare to what it was at the start of 2018. Also the contact page, due to "spam" and "threats" I have now provided you guys with the contact email which I do have the power to block emails if people wanna abuse the email system again. Finally as I stated on "Social Media", I have changed the top picture of me to the picture for 2018 but also changed the image on the About page to the current image as well so this way everything is now up to date. Again you have to give me credit, when credit is due and I have come a long way since the start of running this website under the domain and learning how servers work and I think I am doing an amazing job and I am sure you guys are proud of me! 😄

No ETA on ChrisBOnTheWeb.com Re-Opening (I'm Sorry...)

             Today's blog I would like to touch on a few things this afternoon as I know, there has been delays with re-building the website at this time and I understand you're frustration. Like I have said on social media, it's definitely growing pains my website has been experiencing and this year is officially the year of growth and I am excited to see what the future brings for ChrisBOnTheWeb.com and as you know I am planning on moving over to a different web builder with the domain, once the domain expires then the move begins to the new web builder and will have to build the website again.


                  But this is not about the future of the website, it's more I at this time do not have an ETA to when the site will be back up and running, but please note I am working on it, just been running into problems, left right and center with the web builder servers going down the other day. Trust me I am eager to move to a new and more effective provider in late 2018, early 2019. But I ensure you, I am working on the website each and everyday, my website is growing and with growth comes growing pains and that is what my website is currently experiencing at this time even while it's down and the website is being rebuild. 


                    Now will there will be changes to the website? Yes! CBOTW Blog will be back as a single page not under a drop down menu like before as I am currently only blogging on the website due to me dropping the other blog last year after a short time with them. Also the contact page, the form will be removed due to abuse last year of making false statements and threats so the email will be provided to contact me in an email, so this will cut back the number of abuse within the website. On Demand Feature will remain as it is, the Everything About Reality TV will be the main feed for the active season of Everything About Reality TV with Archive Page being the page for the Archives for the podcast. 


                     Is there an ETA for the website being released? Not at the moment. It is a lot of work, the site is very much very complex with the amount of archived episodes of Everything About Reality TV, 90 episodes to this day have been archives, so to re-code and add in all the archives, it's not easy task at hand and plus you guys know I am on my own with working the website, blogs and the podcast, so it is tougher to get things done at a faster pace. Once the website is done, I gotta do some BETA testing make sure the bugs are not on the website to where there will be problems but you guys can contact me if you notice a bug on my website. I will do an announcement blog post to when the website will go live and I have more information. 


Have a great night!



Chris
