Website and tech issues continue...

               It's the start of a brand new week and already problems are occurring. As you guys know I was suppose to have Entertainment Man Podcast out today but once again, both OBS (Open Broadcast Software) & Audacity for the Audio ONLY has become a problematic issue. However I had to shutdown and reload the programs a few times before it started to pick up my voice. Very, very strange honestly. Technology hasn't been on my side and the constant back and forth to switching programs for the video end has made me think maybe Prism Studio will be used for the podcast instead and OBS for gaming as OBS is more the way to go for it. However it is so confusing between the two programs. 

               Now ChrisBOnTheWeb.com is another story. Since all the drama which is gone, I've had to tweak a lot of things on the website, one being the partner page has been completely removed and deleted from our website. There is no need for it anymore. The team page has been redone just like our Discord server but another story for another time. I am considering this a reset and the main core 3, myself, Kevin and Larry are still going strong and we will continue on to be. Anyways that is the post for today, tomorrow I will have the Orono Fair Blog followed by a two in one Food Review but will talk to you tomorrow.

My role with ChrisBOnTheWeb Media

                 Hello, my name is Brooke and I am ChrisBOnTheWeb Media's resident website admin. I know it's been a very difficult past week for us and we've had struggles with the community but my best friend Kelsie of 25 + years now already covered that. I am hear to talk about ChrisBOnTheWeb.com which you all know Chris and I have been working on developing a new menu bar to suit The CBOTW Show especially and getting some progress but getting stumped along the way. I am currently working on the development side of things. I will get into details in a moment but if you remember me from the past, I was once part of the staff and was seen on the now defunct Discord server.

              So the new menu will have a sub menu for all the current shows and movies we are currently covering on The CBOTW Show Podcast which Kels has talked about that already that it is part of the main YouTube Channel. Hopefully we can complete and have it functional by the end of the summer as we start a whole new era of ChrisBOnTheWeb Media this fall as we celebrate our 10th anniversary. I want to thank Chris and Kelsie for allowing me to talk briefly the plans with a revamped schedule and I will stay in touch with you all on updates on this project.

Brooke, Website Admin

However that is the post for today, have  a great weekend and as always Kelsie will be doing the end of the week updates and I will talk to you all on Monday.

We Broke The Website Yesterday!

          Yesterday, I wanted to change up the website so the girls and I (Kelsie and Haylie) decided to explore the idea that I had and we ran into an issue with the menu bar as it didn't work whatsoever no matter what layout we went with. So the entire layout and the menu code and layout we had stayed the same but it moved about with the changes in the layout so it was there but was moved around. So the website for about an hour looked a hot mess and the three of us find it hilarious that we broke the website and we had a laugh for the day. 

          However once we got fixing the website, we found the website now looks a ton better and I am not sure what we did but it is now fixed and looks a ton better. Proud of the changes and big thanks to the two ladies being up all hours helping me through the fixes. Haylie was so patient and helped me out with the fixes and patches to the website and Kelsie was on the duty of testing the page out. We also removed the wall of fame as we do not have the images and feel it wasn't benefitting the website. Anyways we are online and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow for another blog post!

End of The Week Updates [01-26-2024]

            It has been a wild week around the studio from Chris finishing up the first half of Power Rangers Beast Morphers to becoming sick it's been a turn of events for us but he continues to work on the notes. Once he's done the notes he will be shifting over to Entertainment Man Podcast for a bit and he hopes to be starting on that by Saturday to be completely done with The CBOTW Show so he can shift over to Entertainment Man Podcast so he has ideas for the next many weeks so he can record without a problem. Also he will be re-shifting back to The CBOTW Show by Monday to work on The Simpsons Podcast as he revealed on a video yesterday morning that he will be doing 2 The Simpsons episode. 

             In other news, Chris has hired my brother Jim back as an advisor. I know it is a shocking he hired my brother back after he turned his back on the team 2 months ago. I hope Jim sticks around for a while and I sure think he will. Jim will not be on any social media of ChrisBOnTheWeb Media, more behind the scenes and advising Chris more on this website in case he runs into a problem which there has been a few technical issues but Jim and Chris have since then resolved the https:// issue with this website. That's everything that has gone on and he will be back blogging Monday and I will talk to you all at the end of next week.

Kelsie, Community Director

Chaos Ensued! [Has been resolved!]

            Yeah things have been rocky for us for about 14 - 15 hours Tuesday until Wednesday morning. However I have actually got control of things. I will get into it more. As you know I lost my USB Key which was found under the mixer on the desk and this stems to it being missing for 15 hours maybe more. It was crazy because I had already typed Power Rangers Podcast on there. Which mind you I had a lot done and why I was so upset and peeved off at myself for losing it. Not only that but I feel like I let Larry down, I let Kels down. I was so hyped up for recording again and now I have something to look forward to now since the issue has been resolved. The lesson from this is to look under things in case it has been moved under it. I was looking in the drawers and moved my stuff guy that I can punch when I am frustrated to find a stick like thing under it and I'm thinking oh for crying out loud it's the USB Key. So yeah I found it.... I felt really, really small from this experience. This is truly a lesson learned. Notes are back underway and hope to have em done by Monday at the latest.

             Now the website, as you know it was down for almost 3 days and finally found the issue. It was propagated and everything it had to do with the certificate https:// that you see in the address on your address bar. Which shows our website is a secure and safe website which is important. We do not want to show that we are a deceptive website cause we aren't. However with that being the cause of the problems the site is so far up and running smoothly. We will continue to monitor it for the recent of the week to ensure there is no more problems. That is the post for today but I will talk to you all Monday as Kels is talking over the blog for the next two days!

Chris

End of The Week Updates [12-15-2023]

             Another week has ended and time for another end of the week updates:

Christmas: Christmas Day there will be no blog whatsoever. We are planning to take the time off. Speaking of that we are planning to close the studio from Dec 23rd - 26th for a break so the emails will not be answered till Dec 27th so if it is an emergency but put it as part of your subject and myself or one of the team will be sure to answer it as soon as possible.

The CBOTW Show: Well, that has been a struggle as everything else seems to come up at the moment. This weekend I hope to be switching to the old PC to get working on that. Eyes was on me recording a bunch yesterday which I did in order to stay on schedule. 

Website: Big thanks to Kelsie, we now are recognizing some of the people who contributed to ChrisBOnTheWeb Media & ChrisBOnTheWeb.com over the years. Won't be recognizing people who I ended on bad terms obviously but got at least 4 people on there to start with. Will update it when we need to update it. Right now it is not a priority at this moment. I can say this feature has been very loved by the community and thank you for the positive feedback you guys have given us since this addition.

           Those are the updates for this week, have a fantastic weekend and as always I will talk to you guys on Monday for another week of blogging!

Chris

More Change?! Whaaat!

             I know I am getting wackier with the blog titles these days and it's proven to people clicking on the link to find out what I said. I think I have crafted the art of click-baiting like a lot of YouTubers do but I try and not to do that too so often.  Yes changes have been made to the site our team has been shifted but as you remember I had someone else do the "End of the Week Updates," however I am going to be returning to it unless I need time away or I am extremely busy my assistant, she can handle it as she knows the entire in's and out's of this company as much as Larry does too. I tell em everything that goes on around the studio in updates and what not. 

             So this change will be effective immediately as of the start of this week so two days from this post going live, I will be back from my very short hiatus of doing em. Really should be the CEO of the company to mention all the updates that we have done to the company. I will make sure to update you guys this week as it's a big week for us here at the studio as this studio is getting light up to the nine with lights. However that is the changes and it isn't much of an update, but I wanted to make you guys aware and not be surprised to hear from me on Friday which I really should of done that to just throw you guys off for the heck of it... LOL. Anyways I will speak to you all tomorrow!

Chris

The Next Day or So Will Be Chaotic!

             This weekend was an testament to the crazy chaos this studio has endured. As you know my mission has to be get all The CBOTW Show episodes done so I can work on that other podcast Larry and I have been trying to get back up and running pretty much 6 months at the end of the year since it went off the air suddenly and I need to start rectifying all of this especially with 2024 around the corner. But first the podcasts that I need to record and edit comes first and what I am doing most of today for editing wise I will be active recording. At least 2 - 3 recorded maybe the full 4 actually. 

               It is very chaotic right now for all 3  of us, plus I need to finish up the one page that was left unfinished which was the schedule but that will be done at a later day for right now. It's not that hard to put a table in HTML.  There is one page missing and you can see on the 10th anniversary drop down there is a spot that's blanked out which will be on the schedule for 2024 and I do not currently know as there is some things I want to make sure it is what we want to do what is on our schedule but more coming by the end of the year when we released an idea of the schedule and events but I will talk to you all tomorrow for another post.

Chris

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

Things Are Progressing Well!

           As you know Mark, Larry and I have been busy with preparing for ChrisBOnTheWeb Media's 9th Anniversary next week which I will be live on Social Media to chat with you all Tuesday evening as I will be spreading it out between the two platforms at the most. However also we've been working on 10th Anniversary and the website is looking great honestly! Mark has done a fantastic job with the website and getting ready to start releasing things. As you can see we've actually renamed the tab 10th Anniversary.

         Now I know when are we releasing these pages? December 1st, 2023 we will OFFICIALLY releasing Trip down memory lane and also ChrisBOnTheWeb Timeline will both be released on the website together at the same time and is actually active on the website drop down with coming soon. Excited for the completion of this this project. It's been a crazy last month almost with all the work we've put into the website and it's a crazy setup right now but this is just the start. Now I can OFFICIALLY say that the 10th Anniversary graphics will be released as of January 1st, 2024 and put up on all social medias and this website. Anyways that is the post for today, thank you for reading and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow for a double blog post!

Chris    

Making Some Crucial Changes...

            ChrisBOnTheWeb Media has been changing so much since I got home from South Simcoe. First change was the dismantling of ChrisBOnTheWeb Media's Server and being deleted all together. That was a very tough decision to make honestly. However it wasn't very active as a community and I feel like at this moment it is not the right fit for ChrisBOnTheWeb Media moving forward. However we still have Nas, we still have ChrisBOnTheWeb Media Fan Page, the group page that we are currently running, Instagram & Threads are still in play. 

             Now our team has shrunk a bit. We no longer have have a site admin but our community manager, she wants to learn what I go through with keeping the website up to date on a regular basis. She wants to help out in anyway with the website. We need to get the 10 years tab up and running on here and we will. We continue to make adjustments and bare with us through this moment of change. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow! 

Chris

End of The Week Updates [10-06-2023]

                  Well not much of an update from us. I know this is the end of the week updates but Chris is recording the podcast for this weekend, editing and scheduling it to be post as a reminder he is not available Sunday as he will be in Halton at the Streetcar Museum. Also he is working on Power Rangers finally. No bars held this time. He is adamant on getting it done with no distractions. He wants to get it finished for November so the two of them can finally get back to recording and finishing off this epic journey they have together. 

                 In a few hours if you are reading this at 11 am, EDT, Chris is going to be interviewed by Bob who was on Chris's podcast I believe earlier this year which can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JMJqy_JH7HQ @ 2 pm EDT.  Excited to hear the interview and Chris jokes this is his once a year interview. I know he's kidding but he's made a lot of great connections in the last year and a half. That's the updates for the week, minus Staff page changed from the team to "Staff," I hope you all have a wonderful weekend, Happy Canadian Thanksgiving to our Canadian fans out there and Chris will be back blogging on Monday with a Angels Creamery Review. 

Kelsie 

End of The Week Updates [09-23-2023]

                           Another week has come to an end, it is time for another end of the week updates. Now Chris has been absent the last 2 days due to some mental health reasons but will be back hopefully on Monday. Here's what's been going on with ChrisBOnTheWeb Media:

Website: As I said this morning on a very long winded post of updates, Chris has changed the YouTube page to just "Entertainment Man Podcast" and evidently may be the only channel ChrisBOnTheWeb Media actually owns. Chris is fed up of the negative and trolls on the platform which was one of the reasons he quit. Which you can go back to yesterday's blog hence the reason I moved up the end of the week updates to this morning. 

Entertainment Man Podcast: With the 200th episode now wrapped up he can continue to create episodes and there will be no more YouTube Shorts nor he will not be doing TikTok no more as he's taken those both out of the equation and wants to focus on the main shows for right now. Also he's going back to the weekly shows on YouTube and audio and the every second week bonus episodes on every 2nd Thursday on audio only platforms.

The CBOTW Show: Despite him being off from the day to day operations this weekend, he's gotten back into Power Rangers and really putting the effort to getting it finished so they can officially record finally. 

            Finally Chris is currently under a messenger ban so he can actually answer messages on the Fan Page, so if you message the fan page I will be the one to answer the messages and should be back Thursday evening next week. If he needs more time off you will hear from me but enjoy your weekend and I will talk to you around the community. 

Kelsie

End of The Week Updates? [09-15-2023]

            Another week has come to an end and time for some updates:

Website: As spoken about this morning on Social Media, Kelsie and I jumped on a call late last night and started fiddling around with this website and have officially added the 10th Anniversary tab to the website's menu bar after fiddling around with the code on the menu and the code in the CSS in the back end. Nothing is active where it drops down yet and it will once we finalize the schedule for 2024 and hoping to drop the entire schedule by November 30th, 2023. Full details will be coming on Monday's blog post. 

Entertainment Man Podcast: I have recorded and now editing two podcasts both this Sunday and next Thursdays which will be both on Video (YouTube) & Audio ONLY platforms. Sunday will be the normal 1 pm EDT premiere and next Thursday at 7 pm EDT as everyone is normally at work by then. That will then wrap up some of the big events going on.

The CBOTW Show: Two parts to this update, I am recording today the next episode of The CBOTW Show before recording the next two Entertainment Man's. I will have it done by end of today I hope so I can start working on Power Rangers which is part to the second part is this weekend I hope to get moving on the podcast with Larry and I.

             Anyways those are the massive updates for the week and have been busy busy around the studio and continuing to strive forward with getting things finished so we can get Larry back into the studio cause I know he is anticipating the announcement of his return to the studio. But anyways have a great weekend and I will speak to you all on Monday!

Chris

End of the Week Updates [09-08-2023]

             Another week has concluded and of course it ends with typical drama in our community Discord which will not be tolerated moving forward. So with that there has been changes to the team:

The CBOTW Show: As I announced on the private group, Larry and I were about to add an additional member to the podcast but that has all changed now and will now remain Larry and I moving forward and will continue on with what we are planning especially with the looming final 4 episodes we need to record together before we start prepping for Cosmic Fury!

Website: So the change to the team page has been readjusted once again and plan on keeping it that way for right now. Probably for a very long time. 

This Weekend: I plan on working on Power Rangers and plan on hoping to attend the Orono Fair this weekend as I technically cancelled going but the door is open but will be up to my dad if he wants to go. I really do wanna go as we plan on going for the Tractor Pull which is always one of my favourite things at the event. 

            Anyways those are updates for the week, I learned a lot this week about myself and I will talk about that on Tuesday but for right now have a great weekend and as always I will talk to you all on Monday for a brand new week of blogs.

Chris

End of The Week Updates [08-13-2023]

             Another week has come to an end and time for another end of the week update. I have or we have been working hard on a lot of things behind the scenes but here are the updates:

Team Wise/Website: We have a new Community Manager as our previous team member has departed so we welcome Kelsie to the team and she's been on the ball on things and I reveal to you guys what we have been up to behind the scenes.

Discord Server: As you guys know we have a Discord Server and after speaking to Kelsie over this, her and I agreed to do away with the Content Creator Role and brought back VIP to those who I feel. Also Moderators are done for now and I erased it.

The CBOTW Show: I have officially wrapped up editing all of the Power Rangers Movies  and one is being posted today @ 1 pm EDT. I look forward to the feedback with this and apologize for such a long, long delay. Had other projects that had to be finished first but finally got all 3 scheduled. I promise in the future to be more prompt with the release schedule. 

What's Next?: Well I have to record or have recorded this weekend's episode of the podcast, edit all, prepare TikTok's and YouTube Shorts during the week. That will be all today. Tomorrow I will be starting back up on Beast Morpher's where I was suppose to be at the end of July and supposedly done by now.... SMH (Shakes my head!) So that is where I am at this point and made some real progress! I have some other news to share with you next week but for now have a great weekend and talk to you all Monday!

 

Chris

End of The Week Updates [06-30-2023]

             Another week has come to an end and time for the end of the week updates! 

Entertainment Man Podcast: I have recorded 3 out of 4 episodes including this weekend's and I have just concluded the episode for this weekend editing both YouTube and Audio ONLY. Been editing what has been completed and today will be recording the last one and editing while watching Beast Morphers.The episodes that goes up while I am away Jul 12th - 22nd, 2023 will not be posted to chrisbontheweb.com as I do not have a laptop and it would be hard to upload via my iPad which I will have.

The CBOTW Show: The last Power Rangers Podcast till August will be out sometime next week and will be the last episode as this podcast is very sporadic at the moment. I promised to do Full House and that will be at the start of August along with The Simpsons this fall. Will be an interesting start. I will talk more about the schedule when I am away, I will do a formal post. 

               Those are the big updates for the week, have a great weekend, happy Canada Day to all my fellow Canadians and Canadian Fans out there, enjoy your time with the family I will talk to you all on Monday!

Chris

We're Pretty Sastified With ChrisBOnTheWeb.com!

            My team and I are pretty sastified with ChrisBOnTheWeb.com with it's current configuration. I mean we have a ton of things on here to keep you busy as we have from blogs to podcasts to 2 YouTube Channel to just keep you all busy all around. There has been a ton of changes with the website and there has been moments where I wasn't happy with the website to a point I kept changing things around with the website constantly where I would reconstruct pages. 

            Now with the website is where I want it to, I do now plan on changing anything off the website right now. Only thing that would change is if a podcast went off the air it'd be moved to the Archives on the website all together which I have already done that way ahead of time for example the Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast which is now in it's own thing now, The CBOTW Show which is a ton better. Either way I have the way I want things and not planning to change anything in the future unless it's an update but other then that is the post for today, I'm sorry it's a tad late but as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Chris

End of The Week Updates [06-16-2023]

             Another week has come to an end and time for a end of the week updates:

Website: I have decided to remove the Alumni as it really doesn't serve much of a purpose and plus there has been so many people, it is hard to recongnize everyone that has been involved with ChrisBOnTheWeb over the years so I think it is just best to remove it from the website. I have actually put the schedule page back to a Google Calendar which was a lot easier to change things at the click of a button so makes it so much easier. 

Entertainment Man Podcast: June 30th will be the last set of interviews till end of July as I will be away, unavailable and will start preparing the podcasts soon for while I am away. Will be more information when I have it. 

The CBOTW Show: I know if we have just one episode, we will be holding onto the episode till the other one that goes right after it goes up. However I am writing this 2 days in advance but that is if a worse case scenerio.

            There isn't much more to say as that is the updates for this week. Just been busy with The CBOTW Show and Entertainment Man Podcast, so have a great weekend and I will talk to you all Monday!

Chris
