What Ever Happened to 6 Blogs a Week?

             I do not really know what happened! We were set to go 6 days a week with the blog and what happened? Who knows. We've had our share of issues with our Community Director and site admin since mid October to a point there was always someone doing the end of the week updates and now it's basically just me unless Kelsie pops up from time to time to fill in for me but that's been a rare occurrence as she has double the duty for us; as you know she's been on and off since August 1st of 2023, 5 months and counting and she's dominated as the Community Director. even when she went quiet she was dealing with the emails outside of social media. 

          Anyways we tried to have our Community Director to do it and she's always welcome to jump on the blog anytime. However I know we said we were planning to go 6 days a week but are keeping it optional moving forward especially with events. This also is Sundays too. Weekends are optional especially with the end of the year blog landing on a Sunday we need to be more open-minded with the days and it can happen. So in retrospective we do not know what happened but I think it's more the fact we wanted to be more open minded and that is what the plan is moving forward for us. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow for another blog post.

End of The Week Updates [01-05-2024]

           Another week has gone by and it is time for end of the week updates:

Entertainment Man Podcast: I am all set for podcasts this week. I have gotten all the episodes I need to get done, done. Which is good so I can move on and work on The CBOTW Show.

The CBOTW Show: I also have finished up the podcast for today at 1 pm EST which is my Trains, Planes and Automobiles podcast, both edited and scheduled for this afternoon. Look forward to your feedback. Speaking of that I have already started to work on the podcasts for Larry and I at this moment. I am excited to get back to it finally and back into it as it has been a struggle especially with the old computer now com-put so I am on the main computer which eventually will have all 3 screens together as one. 

             Anyways those are the updates... Nothing too special... Just getting things done that weren't finished last year and upcoming podcasts and what not. No real changes to the website, we've committed to keeping the website as it is for right now. What you see on here is staying as it is. However the votes are in and I asked you guys if you'd like weekly streams and seems like a most definite yes! Anyways the schedule has been adjusted so be on the lookout for that and I will speak to you all on Monday, have a great weekend!

Let's Talk Rumble and YouTube!

                As you know we are split from the different platforms, Entertainment Man Podcast on YouTube since 2022 & The CBOTW Show since towards the end of 2023. I want to talk about both a little bit.

YouTube: It will take quite some time for Entertainment Man Podcast to become monetized on YouTube as you need 500 for memberships and donations which I do not plan on super chats whatsoever but am planning eventually doing memberships as I have ideas for that side of things. However you need 1000 subscribers to get actual ads onto the videos and my podcast is too far from that goal actually. However that's the way YouTube works as a platform. 

Rumble: Rumble which is home to The CBOTW Show which has just begun it's journey on video on Rumble and noticed the views are a lot higher but then again it's different content from Entertainment Man Podcast. However I was told that the views are a lot higher and what I really like is that I can be monetized right away non of what I said above for YouTube so that is most definitely a plus and opportunity knocking for us. 

            I know, I know Entertainment Man Podcast could of also gone exclusive but again there is 50 subscribers on YouTube already. Unless the podcast was kicked off then I'd move it over to Rumble but I have no problem being on two different platforms for each and you never know with the growth of Entertainment Man, I can and know I will reach my goals if I continue on with the podcast and I can tell you I plan on continuing on with the podcast! Anyways that is the post for today and I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Plans for Entertainment Man & The CBOTW Show 2024!

          As you guys know I have been toying around with ideas for both and I have come to this finalized idea for 2024:

  • Entertainment Man Podcast will be split into different parts both live and Pre-Recorded-- To start with the normal topic and Interviews episodes will be pre-recorded and premiered on Sundays. Might be hard to have an audience during the day time and the interviews can vary from week to week. However Special episodes for milestone episodes, special episodes and Christmas Specials will be Live with Audio ONLY being posted up on Sundays. Wednesdays Bonus episodes every 2nd week WILL NOW be on YouTube and Audio ONLY. This means both podcasts will be visual (Video) and Audio ONLY. I do not see doing interviews live a viable option as most of them are during the day time as it varies when folks are available to chat with me!
  • As for The CBOTW Show, it will be pre-recorded till we reach a certain amount of followers which I haven't yet determined yet what that will be as of right now. However when we reach that then we will be more then likely going live all the time at any given time whenever we are scheduled to record these shows that we recap.
Anyways excited for this next chapter of CBOTW Media moving forward I always have you guys to thank for always supporting us with what we do. That is the post for today and I will speak to you all tomorrow.

Goals for 2024!

             That time of the year where I need to come up with goals for 2024, that was a tough decision to make but I came up with ideas for goals. As you know this year is slowly winding down, I've started to think about next year and the gal's I'd like to achieve. I have 4 or 5 for both personal and also professionally but I want to mainly focus on professionally: 

1- Improve Patience: I need to improve my patience as it can be a short fuse at a lot of times and something I need to really work on, especially and this one can be for both personally and professionally actually.

2- Get Power Rangers Podcast finished: This has been an ongoing problem with The CBOTW Show since June and been a thorn in my side but I feel positive I can finish this hopefully by February actually, latest March 2024 so we can take a break from this series and do movies and maybe even get started on preparing for Ghostwriter series which also a 90's show. 

4- Get Guest hosts for The CBOTW Show: It isn't a permanent position but always looking for people to collaborate with us on TV Shows and movies on a guest host basis and my assistant she's working on something that she's not telling me yet.

Achieved: 3- Fix The earnings: Another thorn in my side this year as we were earning money, the monetization but every time we earned it's suppose to be going into the earned column and it hasn't been moved over.  However I have started earning with Rumble so this goal has been achieved well prior to 2024 rolling around which is incredible honestly.

        Those are my goals for 2024 for ChrisBOnTheWeb Media wise and the post for today. It is a good amount of goals and I hope to achieve each one and as always I'll talk to you all tomorrow.

Happy New Year! [2024]

           First of all to start this blog off, Happy New Year! So here we are, 2024! Start of our 10th Anniversary extravaganza this year! I promise we will not get too crazy but expect a ton of stuff to happen throughout mostly online with streams here and there when available and also lined up 3 interviews for 2024, one I cannot say yet but I've hinted it actually. I can say I am planning to have Eric on the podcast for the first time and an interview with both Justin and Larry in studio. Three Stooges with 3 mics, oh boy you can imagine the craziness and could even be beyond an hour for an interview with the 3 of us in studio! haha! I can just see it! 

         May add in a BBQ in July as The CBOTW Show will be between series for 2024 once Power Rangers Podcast goes to the way side we will be on more movies more then anything else in the world. Also the big 10 year anniversary celebration hopefully on Nov 14th the exact day! Praying Larry is around that week and Justin is free we can celebrate as a team or former team. I can feel this year will be a year of positivity and happiness and a lot of exciting stuff going on for us being our 10th anniversary of doing this. Anyways once again, Happy New Year to you all and let's make this a great year! Talk tomorrow,

End of The Year Review [2023]

           This year has been very dark and gloomy for us as we've been through so many team changes to the point of me just getting rid of the Community Manager or Community Director Role to have an assistant help us out. We may have a small company with 3 of us together as a team but we're mighty. I think we're most definitely on the right track with that. Also I took a lot of time off to deal with my Grandma and former Team member Sophie passing away which derailed a lot of things in this company and one of them being Power Rangers Podcast that is suppose to have been done by now and awaiting Cosmic Fury, season 30 in the New Year which is like T-13 hours from happening but NO. We have fallen off the tracks and now behind schedule even more. 

            Positive things was the positive feedback Entertainment Man Podcast got from you guys and you have really enjoyed the episodes and how motivating and inspiring I have been to you guys which I tend to continue on with that in the New Year when it returns on the 8th of January, 2024? I am just spitballing there on the date as I'm writing this on the 4th of December. Also The CBOTW Show has shown a lot of growth and now surpassed it's 20th episode both with Larry and I and on my own. Plus the accolades GoodPods have given us with being on the charts constantly shows we are very much in the right direction with the podcasts. So with that, this wraps up blogs for 2023 and I will speak to you on Jan 1st, 2024 for the first blog of the year.


Happy New Year!

End of The Week Updates [12-29-2023]

              This is the last end of the week updates ChrisBOnTheWeb Media is doing for 2023. Who would of thought that I, Kelsie would be filling in for Chris this week as he's pretty busy working on things today and tomorrow before he's off for 2 days for the New Years. As you know Entertainment Man Podcast is off air now for the holidays and returning a week Sunday, who would of think it would be back on the air sooner then we expected? Chris has made it official that he has opened interviews requests for 2024 and you can email him @  entertainmentmanpod@gmail.com if you would like to be a guest on his podcast. 

             The CBOTW Show is in full swing still even with his other podcast off the air, he has been recording non stop and the rumors spreading since I mentioned that Chris is planning a mid week podcast in the New Year on January 3rd, 2024 for his other podcast so sounds like a pop up podcast is coming your way even if it is just posted and not premiered. Not sure what angle he's coming from this idea but time will tell what he's thinking. He's still working on the upcoming Trains, Planes and Automobiles he's working on, plus working on the new Entertainment Man Podcast episode and the schedule table for 2024 before he heads over to the old computer to work on Power Rangers before but we will see how far he gets today as he does have to go out this morning. But that is what we have been up to for ChrisBOnTheWeb Media and  big thank you to Chris for giving me this opportunity, I will talk to you all later and see you around the community!

Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer-- Funny or Just Cruel?

                The song Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer is a funny song but I've listened to the song a bunch and some of the LYRICS are funny but sometimes it feels cruel but I understand it is just suppose to be a silly song for Christmas time. But I do think some of the lyrics for the song are a little cruel but yet again it's a funny song. The hoofs on the forehead and incriminating marks on her back is a bit much. 

                  I know it's funny but the more I think of it is very much cruel of a song. at the start but the rest just goes along with the start of it so honestly I am half and half on whether it is funny or just cruel. It is just hard to dissect this as I spent a lot of time on looking at the lyrics but let me know what you guys think in the comments below and be sure to hit follow on the right hand side if you want to see more content like this. That is the short blog for today but will speak to you all tomorrow!

Old Christmas Specials

            Growing up, there was a lot of different Christmas Specials that I grew up with. I might not be able to mention all of them but here is a few on my list:

Merry Christmas Mr. Bean: It has been a yearly tradition for me to watch either closer to Christmas but normally is the last of the videos that I watch actually. I love the episode cause of the part where he puts the turkey on his head is hilarious! 

Charlie Brown Christmas: I know it's an old special and I remember it a a kid and watched it a few times during my childhood. Haven't seen it in years but a lot of great memories with it. I even have seen the one with Charlie Brown and the Great Pumpkin for Halloween and maybe I need to get back into those. 

Frosty The Snow Man: Another classic and actually near Christmas time they use to air these on Global TV or even CBC here in Canada. A classic indeed and also was a big part of my childhood.

The Grinch who Stole Christmas (Cartoon):This was a part of my Childhood also but also has become a part of my yearly tradition now as it is always on my list of movies and shows or episodes to watch during the Christmas Season.

Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer: A classic song as well as a show that I watched growing up. Again when they aired it on one of the Canadian channels it was literally back to back near Christmas time.

              Anyways that is the post for today, big thank you to Bob for the suggestions and I have another posts suggested for tomorrow's post to wrap up any blogs for 2023! I am already ahead for blogs for 2024 already and have ideas flowing! Anyways talk tomorrow!

We Need To Talk About YouTube!

            As you guys know Entertainment Man Podcast is on YouTube and I have made a channel for The CBOTW Show on Rumble to see the amount of views I get on there to compare the numbers between YouTube and Rumble. However that is not the post for today. After Entertainment Man Podcast, that will be the last channel ChrisBOnTheWeb Media will have on YouTube. I know we've been through that song and dance before and things could change between now where The CBOTW Show goes on but 100% sure that Rumble is the plan moving forward. 

           Reason why is I am tired of the ads, I am tired of the stupid trolls I seem to drag in the process. It is just time for me to stop creating content on that platform. Plus the views are way up on Rumble then YouTube and seems to be doing a bit better. Plus the ads on YouTube has become more troublesome for us and I just don't like the ads every couple of minutes. Also with Rumble, I have an opportunity to earn money actually so this is a big opportunity but keeping Entertainment Man Podcast on YouTube and building up The CBOTW Show on Rumble. Still trying to earn money off this website but failing royally with it. However Entertainment Man Podcast will be the last channel CBOTW Media will ever own and it is what it is. However if something ever happened to Rumble then we may end up having to go back to YouTube but we will cross that path if it ever happens but let's hope not. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow for yet another blog post.
