The Past 2 Weeks With ChrisBOnTheWeb Has Been Tough

                 I have a very rough last 2 weeks with ChrisBOnTheWeb where I've just given up on it. Alas I am still around and still creating regardless how I feel. I know I have felt like I've just lost the will to continue on with this website but still trecking along with content. This week got a bunch of interviews and regular podcasts written notes so I have em ready to go followed by working on Power Rangers Collab which I am currently working on Super Samurai at the moment and hopefully get it sent out to Larry a week tomorrow so he has em so we can record on last podcast via Skype before his return to the studio in June. Anyways off topic as usual but that is what I have been up to since and just trying to catch up especially on the collaboration as time is a ticking and I wanna stay on schedule so we will be ready for Dino Charge this fall. 

                 Not letting my mental health, depression or anyone drag me down all together. I started to smile back on Monday and been in a better mood. I've let certain people drag me right down to a point I've wanted out of ChrisBOnTheWeb. I've wanted out of CBOTW for 2 years now but seem to not have the courage to give up. To be quite honest, I am glad I have never quit. What would I have done with my extra time when it came to my day to day. What would I have done with the money that I have earned as I wouldnt get the full amount as I didn't hit the threshold of 100 bucks. Either way I am constantly fighting through all the issues and started to smile more and get more work done. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you guys tomorrow for the final blog of the week which is the end of the week updates.

End of The Week Updates! [04-29-2022]

               Well another week of struggles and drama continues. I was having a lot of doubts with ChrisBOnTheWeb but somehow made it through this week of dramaticness. Anyways here are the updates:

Entertainment Man Podcast: I have recorded two episodes one for Sunday and one for next Thursday as I will be busy with Power Rangers Collab preparing the next collab and editing the Samurai season that is recorded but hasn't been edited so I am ahead of schedule. 

Chaoticness of ChrisBOnTheWeb: With Entertainment Man Podcast quieter now I have been able to try and get things back under control, including getting things back on track with content and working on Entertainment Man Podcast episodes. I think I got things back under control and got two Mods that are helping watching over things for us. 

Website: With the Survivor Podcast out of the picture now week and a half later almost, I had to remove things off the website, Team Page is removed, Partners Page has been removed off the site and the 3rd podcast we had is now completely removed as I said before. So any audio only has been deleted all together. Support chat has been added back and removed days later and turned into a normal everyday chat as it was used but also abused so it is a normal chat and our Moderators continue to monitor it but it is launching soon!

Power Rangers Collab: Will be working on Super Samurai as of Sunday and hoping to get it done by mid week then typing it for the next 5 days and sent out by May 13th to Larry for the last time which this may be the last one via Skype hopefully ever as we return to Studio still aiming for June of this year. More coming on that later. 

               Anyways that is the updates for the week, I will be back tomorrow with a post about my time with Larry and will be posting up pictures tomorrow as I posted enough this morning with updates and this afternoon at 12:15 pm EST I will be posting some pics up of the craziness of the studio late last night so stay tuned for that updates as well and I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Going To See Larry For The First Time in 2 Years In Person!

              For the first time in 2 years, I will get to see Larry in person for Lunch at the mall in person, in the flesh! I am both excited and nervous to see him as I was feeling the same way when I saw Terry and Eric for the first time but it is all normal and probably spend about at least 2 hours with him see how we feel being near each other and I know there will be snow talk going on and we will definitely be taking pictures of the two of us together! This is only the start for both of us and I am sure sometime in May we may end up doing lunch again for a second time perhaps before we have his big return to the ChrisBOnTheWeb Studios which is still slated to happen yet as cases were high on the weekend but they forgot to report em so I can see why it went up. The other side besides being nervous is how excited I am to see him as it has been 2 years which honestly feels like 5 years as I feel like I've aged 5 years since seeing him. 

              Be on the lookout on all social media platforms for videos, pictures and what not with me seeing him in person, I know you guys are going to be sooo hyped up for me seeing him again! I can officially say this "THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN" yes like the song title which mind you is a great tune honestly and a favorite of mine! Do not worry, we will be wearing our masks when not eating to ensure the mask as we wanna stay safe and not get sick whatsoever. Also when together social distance if we can and we're both vaccinated and should be fine. I have been seeing friends for nearly a year now after a year of no friends so I need to just keep doing what I'm doing like I do with Eric and the little short guy aka Terry and I know we will just be fine. What I have decided is Satuday I will do a follow-up blog to how it went with some photos and what not so be on the lookout for a bonus blog this weekend once again. Anyways that is my post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow!

ChrisBOnTheWeb Never Sleeps!

                  It is true that ChrisBOnTheWeb never sleeps, when Amy, Larry and I are in bed, Jim is up till 3 am EST as he's in the West Coast called Pacific Standard Time. Then I am usually up but recently been up till 3 am every night. It isn't my favorite schedule being up late but I am all for sleeping at a more of a normal schedule. Always big shoutout to Jim, he's always at the helm of the website help chat especially with Amy, Larry and I very busy with content creating. There is always something going on around ChrisBOnTheWeb and one of our busiest times of the year especially in our Reality TV department so it good Jim has the community at his helm and glad to have some help finally with ChrisBOnTheWeb. 

               I hope there will be a rest period when I am done Super Dino Charge by end of August for a month so I can rest and at some point I wanna have the Staff and I in the chatroom so we can answer questions or even if I pop up to answer questions at some point in the help chat.  Right now gotta focus on pumping out podcasts left and right. It is about me staying on schedule this year and getting them out on time and what not.  Like I said we never stop it is always go, go, go but we are a well oiled machine compare to years past. We are working hard around the clock and as you can tell, partnerships have been made, I promote Amy's website, she promotes mine so it really helps both of us grow and I am constantly improving hers too. Anyways that is my post for today,  hope you guys enjoyed this and I will talk to you all tomorrow.

End of The Week Updates [02-18-2022]

              Well another week has come and gone and it is time for another end of the week update. It has been another crazy week and emotional as we lost a dear member this week as she passed away.

The CBOTW Show: Also some great news as you know Big Brother is returning lets get right into it. Big Brother Canada has been thrown into the mix of things and excited to be doing this podcast and yes I said I'm excited to be doing this podcast cause yours truly is actually doing this podcast and excited to be back and yes I am doing this solo this time as last time it was a disaster and Season 9 was technically not completed all the way as I ended up stopping those recaps for foreseen circumstances. I am staying solo no matter what.

Power Rangers Podcast: I do have an update with my crazy schedule I have broken how I am going to get it done. By end of next week I am aiming to get it all done before the Friday the 4th of March and sent out to him that is Samurai just the first of 2 podcasts. Then the next step after that is to have Super Samurai done by March 18th for the following week schedule which I will get into next week on the blog.

Website: Website is doing well, almost at 350K (350,000 views) on the website and it is incredible to see the amount of growth the website has gotten over the years and the fact I continuous work on it and improve the website on a regular bases and it has truly been an amazing how people have loved the updates that has been made.

 

                 Anyways that is the updates for this week, not much just podcast stuff and craziness this week and I will speak to you all on Monday morning for another blog post which I do have some ideas already but have a great weekend and I will talk to you all Monday.

The Last Year & A Half Has Been A Mess....

               I can say this, the last year has been a mess with podcasts. I regret continuing Everything About Reality TV Podcast right to June 2020 then from The CBOTW Show. That is another story, I shouldn't have let someone talk me back into The CBOTW Show nor do Big Brother Canada coverage. To be honest I was over Reality TV Podcasting back in late fall 2019 and it was time for me to move on from that podcast all together. If I did the numbers would of been different for Entertainment Man Podcast and I wouldn't have been on and off a ton with this podcast. To be honest I think having a team that didn't pull their weight wasn't worth the extra stress. I should of stuck to my plans to start Entertainment Man Podcast in January 2020 nothing else. You have to remember that "ChrisBOnTheWeb" is my website, I am the Founder/Owner/CEO etc. It has my name and it is my brand not anyone else's. Yes Larry and Savannah and involved but she's my Site Admin/Site Designer and Larry is my Senior Producer and Co-Host of the Collab. I am not about to fire em when I know this is a great combo of a team and if it works then not to change it around.

                Now the collab that is another story and a half and nothing bad really. I know the transition from Larry being here in the studio to the online life due to this pandemic and it wasn't and easy transition it took about a year to really get the ball really rolling. From technical issues on both of our ends, Larry having charger issues to Discord issues and going back to Skype to humming noises from Larry's end which seems to have disappeared the last episode that we recently did last week on Thursday. Very, very odd to be quite honest. Either way I think now we have figure it out and we have actually getting episodes taped and ready for release. Now the bigger mess is the two episodes I am currently sitting on. I have to work edit those once I start working on Operation Overdrive and getting super eager to get em out. So you can see how much of a mess the last year and a half has been and I blame myself for making the wrong decisions that hurt things with ChrisBOnTheWeb. I cannot dwell on the past but most definitely focus on the future of my website.

Differences Between The 2020 Graphics To The 2022 Graphics

           This is a good little break for Chris from blogging on the website as he's been so extremely busy with content, he can actually focus on things but I believe he is not in his studio today. Anyways, as you know Chris and myself have been extremely busy with getting ready for 2022. So as you all know, I have recently worked on the graphics for not just social media for ChrisBOnTheWeb.com. What you see on the right side of my post is the 2020 version of the logo which now is outdated and time for an update. Don't get me wrong I love this logo and Chris did an amazing job on the graphics but he felt like it was time for an update in the logo after 2 years and I totally agreed with him on that point. Part of my job is the website side of things and the other half is the graphical end as I have studied both sides of things and he is in luck I happen to know both sides of it.

             The logo on the left side of this paragraph is the NEW 2022. Not much difference when it comes to the logo and the real only thing that has changed on the logo is the text and the read leaf and also the colour difference which is a ton darker then it was with the 2020 and Chris preferred it was darker to begin with. It was really tough to replicate his original logo to the exact and know the size of the text on all 3 levels but what matters is he is happy with the finished product. I can say it is the same size as the original and we tried and keep everything the same and colour of the text remains the complete same and unchanged along with the red leaf but the rest is different now. As he said, he will be making the changes on the 1st of January 2022 and I am excited for the changes and I have implemented the CBOTW Twitter logo to my own profile on Twitter to test and haven't removed it as he's given me the OK to leave it as it is. That is the difference and big thank-you to Chris for allowing me to make this post this morning and I will talk to you all around the ChrisBOnTheWeb Community.

Stages For ChrisBOnTheWeb Getting Back To A New Normal

                I know I spoke about this before but things have progressed, changed since then, especially after talking to The Video Projects Team Alum, Eric about Larry's return to the studio and me seeing him again sparked some inspiration for this podcast. I thank him for this inspiration. So as the title says there are stages for getting back to what will be a new normal after all of this but here are the stages:

Stage 1- Go to some gatherings here and there: As you guys know, I have actually gone to a soft opening of Halton County Radial Museum and we are planning to return for Streetcar rides again this fall I am sure. Also South Simcoe Railway is on the list there and Silent Lake Fall colors as well so smaller things like that is a start for getting back into a new normal.

Stage 2- Getting my Co-Host back into Studio: Stage 2 is indeed getting my Co-Host, Larry back into the studio but right now that is not the case of it happening with cases back on the rise but we are still aiming for February 2022 when him and I head into Samurai and Super Samurai early next year but I am working on preparing for that talk with him eventually. 

Stage 3- Local Events: This is the next phase is me returning to local events and there is only a few events locally I'd go to and I have mentioned it on a post before but this is the second last stage before the 4th and final stage.

Stage 4- Return of All Events: This is the final stage and it is the return of all the events but that is a long road for this to happen and I do not think I will be on Stages 2, 3 & 4 for quite some time but will be excited when I hit this phase!

                 Now the phase I am on right now is Phase 1 with the small things right now and I am not looking into Phases 2 and on right now but eventually it will happen just not right now. My ultimate goal is to get to Stage 2 by next year but cases have to go down first before Larry gets back into the studio again and like I said cases down. Anyways that is today's post, hope you all have a wonderful long weekend and I will be back Labour Day Monday for the update blog.

Studio Updates [08-18-2021]

                    Got a bit of an update to the studio. I have made a couple of changes made to the studio and the first one was the purchase of a brand new USB Mixer. Now I had a BUS Mixer originally the Samson MDR624. As you guys know the wire popped out of the end and the reason why there was a problem with it and I couldn't get the wire replaced so the Mixer was thrown out as it wasn't usable anymore so I ended up buying this mixer and to be quite honest with you guys, I love the mixers with the fader its so much easier to actually and the knobs are not a problem with my fat fingers hitting the knobs so it made it very difficult to actually turn on mics and what not but what matters now is I have the Behringer x1204 USB Mixer. I can also say I love this mixer. My favorite one that I have had over the years out of the 3 mixers I have owned.

Now the other thing that has changes is the microphone is repositioned into a up right position almost.  Also you probably seen on the microphone the mic flag with the CBOTW logo. I have had that for almost 2 months now and it looks so professional within the studio and I have really up'd the studio look and I continue to up the studio and things continue to look amazing and I can say this is definitely a professional setup now. I would like to add another screen to my setup eventually and will to add the additional screen to the studio and would spend the extra money to get it but we'll see how I feel and maybe I will and it depends if I wanna add in a 3rd and final screen. I'd have to find another mounts for the screens as this one has 2 at this moment. Anyways that is today's post, hope you guys enjoyed it and I will talk to you all tomorrow!

ChrisBOnTheWeb-- Trying To Figure Out The Right Direction With The Website

                  Yeah, you probably seen the chatroom here on the website suddenly poofed! Yeah well there is an explanation to that. I wasn't thinking clearly when I told Alexandra that I wanted to grow the website and adding back the chatroom was not the right move. I should of thought  things more clearly. With the rumors getting stronger and stronger with a potential Reboot of the beloved CBOTW Gamers Podcast down the road, there can be and possibility of a Discord Server returning eventually as there is possibilities of the Podcast being streamed over to Twitch since I am banned from YouTube and cannot stream to there plus you guys know my stand against that. Back to what I was saying-- I think having the chat really crowds the heck out of the website especially the top bar on the website as it was quite full. 

                However there is other ways you guys can stay in touch with me and my team, Facebook Group, Twitter and Instagram, even e-mail if you got any questions that you may have. I just do not wanna crowd the website whatsoever and I think the way Alexandra and I have the website now is a ton better and I think at this point, we are done adding new items to the menu at this point and I have no plans to add anything else to that menu. I am keeping it to the 6 items on the menu.  However we are planning to keep adding and maintaining the drop down menu on my website moving forward. I hope I'm in the right direction now and not going backwards in time. Like that podcast I did a week or two ago, Moving Forward, not Backwards. Anyways I will talk to you all tomorrow and one last thing, if you have any ideas for Wednesday's post please leave it in the comments below!

The New ChrisBOnTheWeb.com Archives!

               You probably wanna know what the plan is with the Extras tab which now has suddenly disappeared into a different name as you see. Well I changed the name to Archives and slid it across to the right by the Contact page and now has the Past Podcasts which is active and live on the website. The second item below will be an ChrisBOnTheWeb- YouTube Page listing his history as a YouTuber, Blogger and Podcaster from ChrisBOnTheWeb's inception in 2014. The Other part is The Video Projects Team which will have some pictures of the projects that have been done which was provided by Chris himself. It will have an detail information on the former team from the days on YouTube which will take some time to compile the data of the past from Chris which I will have to interview Chris himself about the team with all the projects that he has done in the past. This will be the bottom item on the list and is the 3rd and final phase of the project and we have a month and a half to complete the entire project all together to make the original fully launch. 

             This is going to take a bit to get done and progress on the website work, we will release the pages one by one and we are aiming to have it all finished by September 1st, 2021 and open to the public for you guys all to see the history he has as a Content Creator in Online Media and you guys will know everything you have to know about the projects that you guys are probably wondering. I am sure he will be talking about a lot of things on the podcast of his down the road as he has mentioned that to me on the weekend when we had the transition change between the site admin fiasco. I hope this explains thing and it is clear with the plan with this website and we're excited to release this new feature on the website.

Looking Into The Future of Everything ChrisBOnTheWeb!

                   As you know the studio has been locked down for over a year now and with everyone getting vaccinated including myself my family and I, starting to think about the future. No I'm not shutting down whatsoever as there has been some rumors but I can say I am going nowhere, I am on a very strong run right now and things are getting back on track especially with Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast getting it's foot back into the door. Anyways with that podcast and also Entertainment Man Podcast to be returning on June 20th, 2021 which I may as well thrown in a shameless plug of my personal podcast (LOL!) I have really started thinking about the future of my content, blogs, podcasts, videos and events. I am going to split this up into 4 sections today:

     1. Blogs: The 5 days a week blog posts will be continuing on as always, I have no plans really to move back into a daily blog post grind at this point and maybe when events eventually return which I will get into shortly about doing the odd Sunday post from time to time when I do events but I will talk more about this in a bit.

      2. Podcasts: Now the next part of this post is the podcasts. As most of you know I am vaccinated with one dose of the Vaccine and getting ready for dose # 2 in August and same with my parents as well and my Co-Host Larry has had his first dose thanks to my help getting setup with that as I helped him out on that. Once things open up again, we're all vaccinated and I am able to open the studio especially to Larry, Eric, Justin, etc for guest spots, interviews, Power Rangers Podcast, I am going to require their vaccinated is one, 2) Sanitize when you are enter the studio. However this is later when things are safer to having my friends over again but I am thinking futuristically. 

       3. Videos: I plan on more videos and I have one archives ready for the website this weekend as I forgot to upload this weekend at some point but next week I am going to be doing some behind the scenes on Anniversary Day for the collab so please stay tuned for that!

       4. Events: Right now, I am not EVEN thinking about events right now! No way Jose as Michelle Tanner from Full House would say. When I start going to events again it will only be locally here in my region that's it. No Toronto whatsoever, not taking the risk at all with that. Think it just better to remain safe at the start,

            There is the post for today, hope you guys enjoyed it and have a great weekend and remember a video is going up on the website tomorrow that I did well over a week ago, so enjoy that and talk to you all Monday!

Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast- Dino Thunder Has Wrapped Up Production!

               Last night was an epic night! What a Recording. I was aiming for an hour and a half but that wasn't the case there was good conversation going on between the two of us last night. Now editing wise, I will not get to that till Monday as I need time to myself this week. The last week, week and a half has been very stressful.  I need to decompress so I can do this all over again at the end of June. I gotta get the show watched within days to a week then type up notes so I can have it ready for the recording session of a season. While I watch SPD, I will be editing the podcast followed by anniversary podcast stuff which won't be as bad as a normal episode but I mentioned it on the podcast or Larry did but you will see what I mean. Anyways feels good to be back in the saddle with these again and we're 3 episodes from catching up before another 2 months break and back at it in October.

               At least now I can make the time with this podcast as with The CBOTW Show gave me no time, absolutely no no time to work on this and one of the reasons this podcast went away but we're now in Post Production and ready for the next phase of the catch up plan of this podcast. I cannot wait for you guys to hear it and if I get it finished by mid next week, I will plan on uploading it sooner then usual but we will see. So we're back in business again with this podcast and both on behalf of myself and Larry, we're sorry for the longest delay but what matters is we're back and that is what matters! Also what matters is we also we got a ton of collab podcast content coming your way soon!

Guess I Got The Gift of Gab (1300th Post!)

                   1300th Post, where has the time gone? Like really, 1300 posts is a lot of yakking about stuff and remember I started this blogging journey almost 7 years ago? Time does fly by when your having fun blogging about things. The fact I added in events at the start up to the end of December 2019 due to the pandemic I cannot now go to events and that has made me re think the entire blog post including going down to 5 days a week which honestly has worked. I know I've had to cut out a lot with the blog due to this situation but either way I am proud to say that this blog has really picked up on views especially this website. I think you have to readapt and that is what I have been doing. Guess what I am trying to say is I am always coming up with new and innovative blogs each and every year is probably why I am keeping up with posts on a day to day basis. Readapting is the name of my game really especially with the recent changes I have made here on the website.

                     Moving forward, I think I am planning to stick to my 5 days a week blog which has worked and plan to continue with this plan. I wanna make 2000 blogs and that is like 700 more days to go. Time has flown by and I cannot believe I have come this far. Trying to remember the post which was March 2015 which was the only post that I did. Wasn't till after the YouTube days till I really focused on the blogs entirely and the fact I once blogged 7 days a week was a lot to endure on a weekly basis. I really guess I got the gift of gab when it comes to these posts and I enjoy this and hopefully one day down the road, I get to go back out to events, talk about the events but it will be a slow start to going back to events that's the issue and I cannot predict when I will be back to those. 1300 posts is incredible. What a journey has this been over the years and 7 years is coming up and let's get to 1500 before November as I am not slowing down on this blog anytime soon. Have a wonderful rest of your Wednesday and I will talk to you all tomorrow!

ChrisBOnTheWeb and Being A Brand.... What Does This Mean?

                 You didn't know this and I for one didn't know about this till a friend told me that ChrisBOnTheWeb is a brand because it has my name on it and this brand represents me. So having a team at this point is not the best thing for a team situation moving forward. This is why I have decided to dissolve the team all together and keep certain people on with me. Kind of why I wanted to make this post. For blogs, will be still 5 days a week but that may be changing soon enough as the demand on this website has been up lately and YES I am talking about the analytics for ChrisBOnTheWeb.com. Let's just say they are very high now and it is time to continue to grow this thing.  You probably noticed the Extra Content tab pop up and has yet to be activated yet but will be working on it in the coming weeks. Now for the team, I have set back into place the Management Team which consists of 2 people, Tiala who is an Senior Advisor and Matt who continues to work on the website and he has lived up to his expectations with the recent change with the website menu bar or navigational bar. That is it for the team, small but dedicated team and excited for the new beginnings and people do not like it, then in the words of Boston Rob from Survivor: "That's Too Bad!"  Yeah I quoted him as he's said that on Survivor and Amazing Race.

                 The question you may have what about Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast and yes that is still very much a thing and working on the notes this week to get it done and ready to go so I can send em to Larry and get recording which an announcement is coming soon. Just holding off a bit longer but it is very much still a thing of the present and future of this website. I am not going to be giving up on it anytime soon. That is in full tilt since I have a ton of time on my hands right now and getting ready to start SPD soon so Larry and I can record those too as well. So we are not short of any content and both Larry and I have other plans with the movies for Power Rangers Collab Podcast and also a rankings podcast is in the works too so we are keeping busy with it definitely.  Welcome to the new and improve ChrisBOnTheWeb & ChrisBOnTheWeb.com and I will talk to you guys tomorrow.

Is The Website Done Being Built Entirely?

                 The website for the most part is done with being built but you never know with me that I would like something added into the website. All we have to do is build the community and bring in the views to the website and it has done really well 200 - 300 views per day. Yes we may eventually see podcasts added to our network but right now we have the collabs on the website and we have The CBOTW Show on our website. We also have a lounge Chels decided to actually open the chat back up to guests and we will just ban if we really need to. I think we put in everything that we wanna add to the site and we just maneuver around the podcasts and content here on the website. I just do not wanna put a ton more as there is so much room that we can fit onto our Menu Bar so that is always a concern of mine honestly. With the recent change of background as you see on the side that has a sideways "ChrisBOnTheWeb" on the side I just think we have finished building and tweaking the site to our specifications and all we gotta do now is start building the audience and fan base.

                So the final question are we done? As I said before I am pretty sure the tweaking of the website will happen still and we will still tweak the website from time to time but for the time being we are not adding new features right now unless you guys request it or have new ideas for the website. I wanna focus on building the audience and bringing more people to the website and yes I am referring to us shifting focus's from the site to the actual content that is on our website. However I am proud of what this website has become and the views it get's on a regular basis and just gotta keep up the hard work with the content and the views will improve on a day to day basis. Anyways that is my post for today and I hope you all have a wonderful day and I will be talking to you guys tomorrow's post and it is an good post coming, I can say that!

Do We Know When Big Brother Australia Will Air and What About The Recaps?

               Big Brother Australia what we know of as of right now is one houseguest has been announced at this point. That is all we know at this point and I follow BBAU on majority of the Socials and have not seen anything so that is why we have been very silent and been working on things behind the scenes to get Chris S ready to start his amazing Recaps. Jasmine and I are speculating if there was an March airing that they would of already released the entire cast at this point so we are speculating maybe May towards when Jasmine and I Big Brother Canada 9 Recap coverage wraps up for the season and that could be when it airs as my Senior Producer & Co-Host stated that they have released a Houseguest everyday and this season what I have heard there is 26 houseguests this season which is a lot to be honest and not sure if this is true or false as this seems to be too many in my honest opinion. However it will be interesting if this is actually true and this will be the first season I have watched of the Australian Big Brother and I excited to see what it is like as I know it is different in different areas of the game.

                So as for the Recaps, we cannot say when but we are constantly keeping an eye out on social media if we hear anything else and when Chris S get close to a Cast Assessment we will announce when we post it up for you guys and I am sure we are getting close as I said there has been movement and just excited for this brand new opportunity especially for our Audio ONLY Podcast Network and this is just the beginning as we have other big ideas coming to our network and excited to eventually tell you guys what we have planned. That is my update with Big Brother Australia as there has been questions about the Recaps and that is all we can tell you at this time and we won't address it anymore till we get closer to the season beginning.

I Am On A Sabbatical As Owner of ChrisBOnTheWeb

                  As the title says I am taking a break or Sabbatical from running the day to day Operations which now now has been handed over to Charlotte for the day to day operations of the website and team. Couple of reasons for that is 1) I'm stressed 24-7 and need to try and now destress and I am going to if crap stops happening over this way. 2) My grandma has been not well since getting the vaccine for this virus as Jasmine would say, the Backstreet Reunion Tour (LOL.) 3) Now that Entertainment Man Podcast is gone, I have been depressed and dealing with that too. 4) Getting over some drama and always seems to be more added to the list to be honest. 5) The amount of hate, disrespect and being blocked for no apparent reason. Those are my reasons behind why I have taken myself away from CBOTW and why I am not as involved with the team at this time. I know I have been accused of so many different things recently which is beyond what I can believe and it is hard honestly to take this crap from people.

                   However I will still be active on the blog Tuesdays - Fridays on our normal blogging days, I'll be active on Twitter and Instagram posting up stuff but as for the decisions I will not be involved with for the time being while I deal with and get my mental health better then it has been with recently which is the upmost importance to me. Also the Podcasts you will hear my voice but I need to be upfront and honest with all that is happening with my Grandma not doing well, Jasmine will be taking over this week at the most, Thursday at least, I may pop back on Saturday, we'll see how that is goes but more then likely Jasmine will do both this week while I deal with all this and I know they will be happy to take over as long as I need and this is why I have an amazing team, we back each other up either way. When will I return back to ChrisBOnTheWeb? I couldn't honestly tell you guys at this point, now is definitely not the time to make that decision at this moment. I am taking my time with the decision to return and I hope it's soon to be honest and I may wait till my Facebook Ban is over but we will. I just wanted to be more open why I am taking time away and not hide the real truth behind why I haven't said anything and honest reason is I had posts already scheduled for last week and why I have decided to push it to today.

ChrisBOnTheWeb Weekly Updates [03-01-2021]

             Well happy 1st of March! Another month has arrived in 2021 and I have a bunch of updates and return of favorite features! This is what makes this website unique all the different things to do around our website and our views seem to be consistent on a day to day to basis  and honestly Chris informed me we are close to the 200K mark on this website. With what is about to be added to the website but however here are the updates:

Website: Website has been given a bit of an overhaul. For those who didn't know Chris's 3 Twitch accounts, ChrisEM15, CBOTW_Network and CBOTWNetworkBot someone got into it and got it banned so we have abandoned Twitch all together all together so under Podcasts tab we removed Twitch and only has YouTube at this point. Also you have probably seen a "Chats" Tab pop up. The tab is yet to be active as I have to work on the Staff accounts still and we hope to launch one of two chats this week! What chats you may ask? We will have a chatroom for Big Brother so you can talk about what is going on the show and on the Live Feeds as well. As well as our Normal Community Lounge is returning on a more permanent basis and hope to launch that a week Monday.

The CBOTW Show: Chris, Jasmine, Billy, Chris S and Larry have done such an amazing job with the podcasts with fixing the technical issues they have experienced recently with streaming but everything seems flawless and last night's 1 hour stream proved to be a very successful for them both. Audio ONLY will be up today or tomorrow when he finishes editing it. Regular Streams can be seen Thursdays @ 9:10 pm EST.

Entertainment Man Podcast: The Podcast has proved to done well with YouTube and now Audio ONLY. The Podcast is all booked for end of the month podcasts up to start of June at this moment. Boss Man Chris will start looking into more interviews and if interested to email at cbotwbiz@yahoo.com 

               Those are the updates for the week and stay tuned for the chat release for the Big Brother Lobby which should be up during the day and chat will be opening after the Premiere episode of Big Brother Canada but the page will be live during the day but stay tuned for details this week. I will be talking to you all next Monday, have a great week!

ChrisBOnTheWeb Weekly Updates [02-15-2021]

                  We have been on a tear updating, testing and making sure we are polishing our sound and making sure we are 100% ready to go. The last week has been a very productive week for us and you probably noticed that we have been testing on and off of YouTube and Twitch and this is a network update for you guys. Chris yesterday successfully figured out the issue that it was a setting that was in the back side of the YouTube channel and was the entire problem but recently has been rectified and fixed. He has been in a better mood minus the next negative thing that has happened and that is Castbox. As you know Castbox is the main feed for both Entertainment Man Podcast and The CBOTW Show and Entertainment Man Podcast feed hasn't been affected whatsoever. However The CBOTW Show has been affected by this technical issues recently and Chris has put a hold on uploading to the main RSS Feed until the issue is resolved. 

As you can notice on the left side that I have since updated the Podcasts Drop down menu per his request since he is the boss man. We moved "Entertainment Man Podcast" and changed the Archives above to "Other Podcasts" and Everything About Reality TV Podcast disappeared and I re-created "Podcast Archives" which the links goes to https://www.chrisbontheweb.com/p/archives.html which all you gotta do is click the image to actually get to the archives. It is not as I hard as I explained it, haha! Those are the updates I have for this week, Chris and Jasmine will be live this week on the YouTube channel while we figure out the Castbox issue and why the feed isn't updating at this moment but I may pop on during the week for an update  until then have a wonderful day and enjoy your Family Day to those who are having the holiday up here in Canada and I will hopefully talk to you guys later in the week if not then next Monday for the next update.
