Have I Thought of Making Larry, Executive Producer?

                 Have I ever thought about making Larry an Executive Producer of his and I's little collaboration podcasts? Yes I have but why haven't I as he's been with me for just over 4 years now with our current collab, Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast? Well I think he is very happy as Senior Producer/Co-Host role right now. I think he is very content with his position on the project especially now with it heading into 2023 in the coming months as this year is soon to wrap up and we've made some big headway with the project getting episodes out quickly. Also the fact he's not asked for a promotion of any kind means he is happy as a clam with where he's at and to be honest, he's come up to me with great ideas and the discussions with him that you guys do not even know that happens behind the scenes.It's quite interesting some of these convos that we both have on a regular basis. 

                 I know he deserves a lot of recognition for the work he puts into the episodes you guys hear and not only that coming up with ideas with Season 30 of Power Rangers supposedly being the last post and I will talk more about that tomorrow as it will be about the new season. What I am trying to say we have ideas going beyond Power Rangers that we wanna do from time to time.This is why he deserves the recognition as again he works hard even tho I do all the prep work, he makes sure I stay in line especially recently with threatening to stop working on the project but again "CONTRACT!" Sorry I had to say it, we're under contract at this moment, so there is no backing out.  Larry's been there through the thick and thin of things, the tech issues when COVID started and we had to move to Skype which I will be talking about end of the week as I am ready to make a decision that isn't easy for me or him. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Organizing Myself With My Work!

               I know the workload hasn't been all done or been completely done but something always comes up and that's really OK.  I know the collab has a high priority and I am now back at it between recording the weekly podcast and I am aiming to finish up watching hopefully by the time you guys see this, I am now typing the next collab notes up for the next one. I really gotta make a stride in those but this isn't a post about the collaboration podcast this is more about  myself organizing myself. However, prioritizing yourself to what actually comes first and having a list is very important, especially now for me on a very big grind on one of the projects that I have been working on and you all know which one I mean as I mentioned it on here. I know everything has to be done and it will be eventually. Just gotta take those small steps to completing it all. 

              It takes time to get it done and somethings take longer then normal and that is perfectly OK really. Sometimes you need to switch between your priority list perhaps and that's OK. One thing comes up you deal with that and then go back to your main project you are working on and exactly what I have been doing. I am really good at weaving between projects so I am most definitely use to the switch around on projects. I am a very organized person normally but right now my world is pretty much flipped upside down and inside out with all this collaboration podcast work that is going on here in the studio and on top of that working on episodes of Entertainment Man Podcast in the process. I should just hand the reigns and let Larry be the Executive Producer for once. He truly has earned that title honestly. However a post for tomorrow. I write everything down but not only that but I also add it to my sticky notes on my computer too so I can actually remember what I need to get done and in a timely fashion and trust me I do. Anyways that will do it for the blog today, I will talk to you guys tomorrow!

Changes To The "Schedule" Page

            If you guys have been recently on the "Schedule" page here on the website, you have probably noticed the merge of the collabs as I have now put the two seasons together as I am probably will expect Larry still wants to come over despite. I was a little out of line with him but I do not know what happened till he gets back online and it could be this week, it could be next week, who knows. So for right now I have just put the two seasons that co-aside with one another so I can considering the schedule isn't changing till I know further so I will be sure to let you all know on the changes with that project if anything changes this week or the coming weeks cause I am sure he's going to wonder why I was going off at him
sounding frantic. 

            Now also you will notice if you scroll all the way down that The Royal Winter Fair has been removed. Now I will be going to the Royal Winter Fair as far as I know but just for the fun of it if I decide to go as cases have gone up. You guys are probably wondering why it was removed and that is cause I was too late to booking my media and cases have gone up and worried it 'll be cancelled all together cause of the rise of cases but I am still planning on going to the Christmas Market as it is outside.                                       Anyways that is the post for today, I hope you all enjoyed this post as I am just really, really unsure if I wanna go to The Royal Winter Fair as cases have gone up and just worried cause I already been sick once and I just do not wanna get sick again. We'll see but I will keep you guys up to date on that as we continue to get closer to it and I will talk to you all tomorrow!   Chris

End of The Week Updates [09-02-2022]

             Another week has gone by and there isn't much in updates this week. However just a couple of things that I will highlight what is going on:

Team Wise: I welcome back Jeff as my Community Manager to help with questions on the Facebook page as he will be mainly focused on the Facebook community as we continue on to grow in that community. Also with the departure of my Assistant and Website Admin, Arianna is now my Assistant and is more behind the scenes but from time to time you will see her in the chat on YouTube but mostly is behind the scenes.

Power Rangers Collab: Currently working on another season and I am not talking a ton about it still as it is up in the air what is going on after being sick with COVID and I'm currently staying on the down-low, meaning not saying much when it comes to the collab. I mean yeah I will occasionally post up pictures of the notes but that's all. It will keep you guys on wondering what on earth is going on with the collab and as I said we hope to know more information soon what is happening. Best to wait till I talk to my colleague about everything the last while.

             Anyways that is the post, it is a short post for this week and honestly feeling a bit frustrated right now not getting things done a but faster as that motivation has been lacklustre and I wanna talk about it next week as I need time to try and get the work done so I can continue to stride to recording day and getting this collab back on it's feet again. Anyways have a great weekend and talk to you all Monday!

Minecraft and Stardew Valley Updates!

              So I have been working on the Minecraft server on my own, no real help honestly but that's OK, I can surprise my niece and nephew and I have finished the hockey rink and tower 1 which you can see a partial part of it at the right side -> and yes I used an arrow to sort of point that direction.  Now the tower you see in-between tower 1 and the football stadium is the new Tower 2. Yes this was my nephew's idea to sort of replicate the towers in New York and it is only 12 storeys tall technically. I may add on later but what I care about is building the second tower up then continue to grow and I'm thinking 20 and 25 storeys tall that is the goal but you are limited how high you can build it but I am going to try my best.

                 Now Stardew Valley, I am like in Year 5 now and in the spring season. I have gotten a ton done and done some major farming and building. I have since the last update probably weeks ago but I have since added and doubled the amount of chickens and cows so the farm is very, very full right now and I need to actually think about expanding the wall and the winter season may be the best time to actually start the project since it is too cold but I'll try and see if there a way to put down a wall or not. Also the farming section of this game, I have done a ton of farming and made a ton of money that came with it. I have gotten far on this game but I had a bad habit of buying way too much right now. The goal now is to build two more barns for goats and I think ducks perhaps but I tried to get goats as now I have a 3rd barn with more animals in it but it costs 4 grand a goat now which is ridiculous honestly. So gotta grind and earn more mollah (Money). Anyways that is my post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow for the end of the week updates, have a great rest of your Thursday!

No Power Rangers Collab Podcast News Yet!

              As you guys know, I've been very, very quiet with Power Rangers Collab and maybe I have been too quiet. Once and a while I need to update you guys what is going on but I cannot right now as I haven't nor yet spoken to Larry about the end of July and my fear of him getting COVID cause of my not so smart move of not wearing a mask. Kind of why I haven't said much minus the photo I posted of the actual notes finished for Megaforce which I am now on Super Megaforce at this moment. Soon as those are done I move onto the next two season and so forth. I hope to get a little ahead so all him and I need to do is record. So we're locked for from 2021 (last year) to January 1st, 2025. I have been very topsy turvey with the collab whether it'll continue on and been worried and stressing myself out whether the collab will continue or will end up the same fate as The Entertainment Man Talk Show was but I know it will continue and it doesn't help my mental health and to be honest, I worry way too much these days. Life is too short to be worried 24-7.

                Anyways, I am rambling, what matters, I am staying committed to the project and taking things one day at a time and really have been totally into the collab and really working hard and fast on the project while we wait as Larry and I have some things to discuss when he gets back onto social media, especially the fact I was sick 2 days later after seeing him and I know it wasn't him that gave it to me, it was elsewhere. So that is the reason why we've been very quiet and to be honest this is the only updates you guys will get is when I complete a season, I just like to brag how hard I've worked and I know by the time he's back, we can discuss whether we are going to move forward to him being in studio or if we are going back to Skype temporarily till we feel comfortable with him back but more news is coming by the end of sometimes in October to what the plan is moving forward with this collab. Reason the collab is now hiding in the Podcasts Archives right now is cause of the uncertainty of the collab, whether we will continue in studio or go back to Skype till January. That is the update on this as I have been asked a ton about the collab and why it's been silent lately and I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Poutine Truck @ Auto Fest Food Review!

               This is the last post you guys will get from the Auto Fest and Kars and King for this year. After We finished up we grabbed some delicious poutine from a food truck nearby the exit of the venue for Auto Fest. Now the lineup was a bit long but we figured that it was that good if people were lining up for Poutine. We chose the cheesy poutine which is fries, cheese and had some cheese curds in there with gravy on top. Now it was very, very good, very gooey and delicious which it didn't even last very long to be honest as it went into my stomach very quickly so it must of been very, very good poutine.I'd give it a definite 10 out of 10 all day long, I found nothing wrong with the poutine. I was very satisfied with the little snack that we had. 

                   I love food from the food trucks and I need to checkout food truck alley which is somewhere in this region at some point with my dad as I know there is one but not 100% sure where it is but it is worth it to try something out and I am going to as I wanna try to do a food review once a month for you guys if I can. You guys had that Pizza Pizza return at Union Station which was better but still something wrong. Anyways that is today's post, hope you guys enjoyed this and these ones are not as long as normal but what can you do honestly. I will talk to you all tomorrow on another post which the day I'm writing this, I have no idea what to talk about but maybe I will come up with something but talk tomorrow!

Kars on King & Auto Fest 2022!

              As you guys know, I was at Kars on King and Auto Fest back on the weekend so this is a two part in one post for you guys. So first let's talk about Kars on King:

              This is the first time for Kars on King and also Auto Fest. Kars on King was in the downtown of my hometown here and it was a lot of fun! A lot of cars there, some honourable mentions the Austin Mini aka Mr. Bean car. Also there was great music that was being played in the middle of the entire setup which was awesome. Was a nice way to spend the entire evening in the downtown with my parents as I went with both of them Friday evening. Our local station was there too and playing good tunes as well. We have a great time but was tired at the end of it.

            Now the next day, Saturday, my dad and I went down to the lake for Auto Fest which a lot of the cars were there from the previous night. Anyways it was a busy venue a lot of people there and always nice to see a ton of people. There was a ton of cars there this year and it seemed very endless. I saw a Studebaker car, saw a nice Thunderbird, Trans Am, Mr. Bean car was there from the previous night (lol), bunch of Beetles and much more. The one thing we did not see was an Edsel which I saw I think it was Thursday or Friday afternoon when I was out on my own on the bus, so I was a little disappointed by  that but it is what it is. We had fun and to end the few hours we had together, we had some Poutine together which consists fries, cheese, cheese curds and gravy which is great and yes it is a Canadian thing actually. Anyways that is the post for today, I hope you guys enjoyed this and I will talk to you guys tomorrow!

Fleetwood Mac and Tom Petty Tribute Concert!

              Once again, I went to a tribute concert for Fleetwood Mac and Tom Petty and it was fun. We weren't sure with my mom still coughing but her coughing has been better now since Tuesday morning so we went to this concert. That is why I went off the clock between 6 and 1030 pm the other night and was away from social media for that time but either way it was a mash up of two bands or band and artist depending which way they were going for with the concert and I may not know. First was Fleetwood Mac which In love and have some songs on my iTunes here in the studio computer which is awesome honestly. Few Honorable mentions "Go Your Own Way" and also "Don't Stop, Thinking About Tomorrow" two of my favourite songs and a lot of the singers, the one guy on guitar sounded like him too which was really good and the other lady sounded just like Stevie Nicks so that was really cool.

             The second part of the show after the intermission was Tom Petty who passed away in 2017. It was also really good music, there was at least 2 songs I knew so these two bands I didn't know a lot of the songs but I mean a few popular ones and I need to listen to more of their songs honestly but the two songs I mentioned are: "Free Fallin" & "Won't Back Down" and maybe that is because those are the two songs my dad played in the car on our travels perhaps and the reason why I know those 4 tunes. All in all, the concert was great and I enjoyed it all. The nice topper was we got to sign Happy Birthday to one singer as it was his birthday on the night we actually went so it was extra nice I'm sure for that. That is today's post and I will talk to  you on Monday!

End of The Week Updates [08-26-2022] (And We're Back!)

                      We are back to End of The Week Updates after being off the last week or two now since having COVID and also away on holidays, I haven't been the greatest for updates. I do not remember when the last update was but made some changes to the website and what not but here are the updates:

Website: You probably noticed the website looks a bit different. First the collab has suddenly disappeared here on the website and don't fret it is still here on the website, it's hiding under Podcast Archives which the word is clickable and it will take you to it or it's under "On Demand" if you guys wanna find it. Right now I am remaining silent right now on the project and keeping things under the table as there is some key issues going on with the collab that Larry and I need to iron out but it is still on the site and isn't going anywhere anytime soon.  Also the team page has just been updated at this moment. Also under "Podcasts (Audio)" I have added the "Collaboration Podcast" as an opportunity is coming up for me and more details is coming soon.

Entertainment Man Podcast: I am already worked on episodes this week and sounds like it will be a topic but the following week, I plan on doing one or two interviews to do. I am waiting for to schedule one and I plan on booking another one next week as well.  It'll all work out in the end and excited to be doing more interviews right now, the more interviews the longer the podcast is on the air. 

Guest Podcast Appearance: I have a guest podcast appearance next week and I will be providing you guys information this weekend on Social Media where you can listen to it live and where can you listen to it through the Audio ONLY when that comes up and if it is Tuesday or later next week then I will definitely do a post hyping up the interview.  I am excited for this interview and I believe is the 3rd interview I've done this year where I've been the guest. I am not going to give full information yet but stay tuned for more information!

                   Those are the updates, not much, the same old stuff happening. I know I am not talking much about the collab and keeping quiet on the progress but maybe, just maybe I will do a post showing all the notes that has been done for you guys as I hope by Mid October to be done all the seasons or close to finish hopefully but we will see. Anyways I will talk to you tomorrow for a special post, have a great rest of your day and start to your weekend.

Events Changes For The Fall!

               With everything that has happened I have decided to take one or two things out recently. So here is the events that are still scheduled as of right now and it is local events for right now:

October 15th, 2022: Apple Festival, Bowmanville 

December 2022: Tyrone Parade of Lights (If there is a parade this year)

               Now there is one event that I am totally unsure of at this moment in time: 

November 2022: The 100th Royal Agricultural Winter Fair

December 2022: Toronto Christmas Market

                The Royal Winter Fair may be on cancellation but I do not wanna miss the Royal Winter fair honestly. This is it's 100th year but with  this pandemic, I'm not missing the 100th but understand if I am not comfortable then I will not then but should make a decision soon so I can get my Media Pass for this year. Anyways that is today's post, I hope you guys enjoyed this post and I will talk to you all tomorrow!
