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.

CBOTW Media Studios is preparing for Christmas!

            Decided to try a different font today, exploring the blog feature on ChrisBOnTheWeb.com. So far I love it. As you know tomorrow is the last Friday of the month of November, which means ChrisBOnTheWeb Studios is getting prepared for Christmas and to prepare Chris has already got the wiring setup for the lights with the clicker to turn everything on and what not. 

            Now he isn't planning to setup the lights till December 7th, 2023 with Larry as I said before he is planning to record Happy Gilmore. He definitely has a plan ahead which is great that he thinks outside the box and very quickly. CBOTW Media is a fast moving company/group as things change and we have to be ready and on our feet for the necessary changes to be made. We have had a lot changes recently with the schedules for podcasts and content. I will be back tomorrow for the "End of the Week Updates."

What Will The CBOTW Show Schedule Entail In December?

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

Friday, December 1st, 2023: Home Alone

Friday, December 8th, 2023: Home Alone 2

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

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

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

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

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

Release of The 10th Anniversary Pages!

                   I have been working tireless hours on the Walk down memory lane as that is the final part of the website!   So the last month to month and a half I have been working tirelessly on the 3 pages, schedule for 2024 which has been back and forth on changes with that as Chris hasn't come up with a formal schedule for 2024.  I am not 100% sure but I think two of the pages will be released ahead of 2024.

                   However the other two pages I am working on or worked on, Trip Down Memory Lane" and CBOTW Timeline which shows a timeline of ChrisBOnTheWeb, probably will be archived but the Walk Down Memory probably will be a an archived item too. Not sure if any of the archives will be updated regularly whatsoever and that would be up to Chris entirely and we have an entire year with the layout of the website as it is right now and by the end of 2024, we start taking down 10th anniversary stuff off the menu. Lots of time to make decisions for 2025 and I mean a lot of time but for now I will be back tomorrow for another post.

Updates, Great Things Happening for Us!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Merry and Bright Market 2023!

            As you may remember from 5 + years ago, my dad and I actually. Well my mom, dad and I went to this event. Reasons was because the way it was setup but this time it was a lot better of an event. Vendors up center street was awesome. They had a bus trolley driving around and was so busy if it wasn't I would of liked to have a ride on it. There was a shop with art, soaps, candles Christmas wreaths. A lot of cool stuff. Even with a area for hot chocolate and treats.  

            There was local vendors even the art studio even food there. Wasn't a lot but hey it was a very simple event and simple is definitely good. However, I enjoyed myself last night and been long wait to returning to this. We heard about this down at the lake via a sign but glad I went and had a wonderful evening out. Anyways that is the post for today, have a great weekend, it will be a hectic weekend finishing up notes for next Thursday and I think I can definitely handle that but Mark will be doing the end of the week updates tomorrow and I will talk to you all on Monday.

Chicken Bacon Swiss [Arby's Review]

           As you know I celebrated the 9th anniversary in style. I went out for lunch with Eric on our adventures and we ended up at Arby's and I had the Chicken Bacon Swiss with tomatoes and lettuce and bacon with the chicken with some honey Dijon mustard which I never knew Dijon goes with chicken and it does honestly. Anyways I just had the sandwich, I didn't have any fries or anything with it. I did have a dessert I will get to that at the end of the blog post today. Anyways the sandwich was juiced and messy but it was really good. I really enjoyed that sandwich it was amazing.

          I also had an blueberry turnover which mind you was amazing was gooey and really delicious actually and I enjoyed every moment of it. Eric's looked good so I said screw it I'm going to get myself one which I most certainly did. It was very flaky like a turnover should be, the blueberries in it was gooey and really, really good. I would give the sandwich a 10 out of 10 and the blueberry turnover a 10 out of 10. The girl that served us was fantastic so the service gets a 10 out of 10. Anyways that is the post for today and I will talk to you all tomorrow for another post.

Road To 10th Anniversary Has Begun!

            The road to 10th anniversary is now underway and there is a lot to do before the 10th anniversary celebration on November 14th, 2024 which we plan to have the team together hopefully all together. I'd like to do a meet up but might be hard to do actually. However we have a plan. Things that needs to be done is the walk down memory lane which Mark has been working on continuously. Not ETA when he will be done but been busy resizing photos etc. He will let me know when it's done and finished. 

           Other then that it's planning out streams on the Fan Page every 2nd week and the events we have planned throughout the year starting in March 2024 with the first interview I am doing on Entertainment Man Podcast with someone that wasn't part of ChrisBOnTheWeb Media but knew about it since the start of it, yes Eric then in June for Justin, Larry and I which will be a bigger production alone for itself but I am sure we will be able to handle it. This is a very long road starting now till the end of the 10th anniversary celebrations end on the 14th of November, 2024. Also small note all 10th anniversary graphics remain up till the end of the year when we go back to the normal. However that is the blog for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow for a food review!

9th Anniversary, 1 Year To Go!

            Today marks 9 years ago since ChrisBOnTheWeb Media started. The recent days I have felt a lot of emotion and feeling so grateful that this website has kept going and we've reached the 9 year milestone. I was going to do a video but the emotions are real right now. I have felt overwhelmed and emotional that we've reached this peak of ChrisBOnTheWeb Media. I am so proud of how far we've come along with this group that we have, yes we have had our up's and downs, our failures that eventually shown to it's successes as we've had over the years and we should be proud of this honestly. 

          Now 1 year from now will be our 10th anniversary. Something we've dreamt of for a very long time and I will talk more about that tomorrow actually on the blog "The Road to 10th Anniversary" as that starts today and a lot to do before the big celebration together where we celebrate 10 years together and it will be a very big party cause I plan on a lot of things for 2024. I was going to do streams every 2nd week but that will be revealed in time. I wanted to thank my team, Larry, Justin (even though he's not part of the team anymore, big part of the team) and Mark for always being behind me no matter what. Happy Anniversary ChrisBOnTheWeb Media and here is to many more amazing years ahead of us!

Organization is Important!

           Yes, it has become a chaotic morning here at the studio but this is where organization comes into play. I know I didn't get my notes finished like I wanted to and I had to finish them this morning but almost got it done about half way. Usually I'm really good with the interview questions and takes me an hour but I am really thinking deeper with questions actually. I wanted to go deeper honestly with the questions and come up with some neat questions. 

             However this isn't about the podcast this is about organization. I know I have spoken about this topic many times in the past both the podcast and on the blog here. So the basic things I am focusing on is getting the notes done for this afternoon's podcast and recording the bonus episode which will be back on YouTube that is on the list of things to do today. Also I have another interview today. Last interview for now as I do not have anything schedule for now. Which is OK with me. I'm sure something will come up again but what I am trying to say is that organization is important. Yes I know Power Rangers is important and I am due to record with Larry in week but trying my hardest and at this point I may need to make a decision to start recording in December instead. With Organization sometimes you need to remember personal life has to be mixed in there with work life. You cannot always be working. Anyways I need to be more organized and need to better to get everything done at a proper time. But that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!
