Sometimes Change Is Necessary!

             Sometimes change is necessary and with both Entertainment Man Podcast and The CBOTW Show- Reality TV Recaps both out of the picture now which means more time for After Hours w/ Shane and Chris & The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies. Yeah, I've stopped the Reality TV Recaps yet it's clear as day in videos in my studio that it is still on our wall in our studio. That means nothing really... I mean there is one episode on the feed but that's it. I'm not going to say but that change was necessary as it was giving me problems like 2020, 2021 & 2022. 

            Entertainment Man Podcast, my pride and joy as the ideas were stale and also the trolls were putting me down calling me fat etc so I decided to just stop. Hey if it's not fun anymore then it is time to move on and exactly what I did. I am having a hay day with the TV and Movies with Larry and also with Bob. In fact, we will be recording a new episode Tuesday so that is very, very exciting stuff! Anyways thats the post, I need to get Corner Gas done and Hocus Pocus 1 & 2 done for this upcoming week's pocast recordings admist all the busy schedule this week and as always I will try and put out a post on Monday but if not Monday, Tuesday right through to Saturday.

Been on a Grind!

            I have found the time to work on The CBOTW Show more and more now with my other podcast wrapped up production after 5 years, 6 seasons and over 300 + episodes. Been able to work on both solo shows and shows with Larry and I and also Bob LeMent and I. However, I haven't actually messaged Bob for the next one and I will this week before the week is up so we can keep going on a role with things. I know there is so many moving parts when it comes to shows each and every week and there is going to be a lot of me on my own between Corner Gas and also Hocus Pocus as that is the plan for Larry and I by the end of the week. 

           So this week it will be quite a grind for me especially today and tomorrow. It was be a game changer for the podcast. I also plan on recording extra episodes in case for upcoming weeks that Corner Gas isn't on as it takes time to prepare, record and edit everything together. I will be working on the last Ghostwriter set of episodes for mid October to late October plus working on Halloween Movies and still deciding which one as of yet.  That will be on the Thursday slot when Larry and I aren't posting up anything. I know it sounds complicated and maybe once we record stuff, I will put a timetable on a post for you guys but that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Feeling the Good Positive Vibes with our Newsletter.

          Our newsletter has been doing very, very well. we have been keeping up with our analytics and honestly we need a specific time it goes out on Mondays. It is the best day to release the newsletter and the stats actually shows. Zoey as really done an fantastic job with the newsletters and very proud how far she's come with releasing it each and every week. She works closely with me so she knows exactly what transpires in the company and our community. 

          I know there isn't new people signed up and all we need to do is the PR work (Public Relations) end of it. Pretty much promote our Newsletter more and more and I have a few ideas I've thrown around to our Director of Operations and she agrees so stay tuned for that post to go up so we can continue to grow our newsletter list and the newsletter in general. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Website Re-Adjustments Continue...

         Archives are being reversed back to the old ways and we have deleted the 10th anniversary off our website and is no longer in the back end of the website at this point. Anyways we are eliminating anything that isn't necessary and our 10th was just about a year ago and our focus is on the content. That is the most important thing to us moving forward as content is key to our success and it has shown, look at the numbers for the month of September as we're over 100,000 views and it shows.

      Now we have moved "Archives" from the "Community" tab to the "Podcasts" tab. Why, you may ask and the reason behind it to fill a bit of a void as it looks bare and it is more fitting place for the archives that are now only focusing on archives for our former podcast shows. Small tidbit how this is possible and it is done with a table. It's amazing how simple coding can make things look really cool! Anyways, I just wanted to let you guys know of these major changes, even if it isn't really major but it is change. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

100k for the month of September! [Record Breaking!]

           History in the making! In the almost 11 years of operation, we have never had just over 100k (100,000) views on our website. It means, we have done things correctly and we continue to grow each and everyday and continue the grind together as a team. We've started to get a good rythm going and gotta keep going with that rythm moving forward. 

          We're also at 1.5 Million on our website and it's crazy to see this number and it is you guys we want to thank for the love and support you guys have given us over the years. I am not surprised by the massive growth on our website and yes we have some growing pains with shows being cancelled left and right but we are going to work with what we have with The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies then add in After Hours with Shane and Chris or Chris and Shane, that hasn't been confirmed yet but slowly growing.Anyways that is the post for right now and I have a second post coming out this afternoon and probably a video from here in our studio.

The CBOTW Show w/ Larry and I Beyond 2025

           I know there has been questions what the future of Ghostwriter is and we do not know. I know there has been questions when we will be back. It may not be till a year from now. I am sure I will be talking to Larry between the other projects that I am working on in the meantime but as for recording by end of October and that will be a wrap for Larry for a while. 

          Don't worry, we will be back in due time but I am not sure when and I am not going to pressure him or myself to getting back into things and this gives me a ton of time to work on seasons 2 & 3 and get ready for the next step of this. I know I sound like a broken record but we cannot rush things and the extra time will be good for me to work on things behind the scenes. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow and thank you, Zoey for covering for me last week while I was in the middle of a ton of chaos here.

Grocery Store Simulator Quit

        The blog doesn't lie. Chris and I have indeed raged quit Grocery Store Simulator due to major lag on the video game and we do not know why but we gave up and we were so deep into the game, closing in to finishing everything up with the groceries and I'm sure we will pick it up in the future but right now I am helping him with creating the new Hockey Rink next to the current one. Even we're renovating the first arena and not sure if that one will be open in time but we have made it our priority to get it open first. We will be working on the lighting situation first then get the boards and ice back into place. 

        As of for Grocery Store who knows when him and I will bounce back right into it and maybe this weekend him and I will try and figure out the lag but we ended up putting the employees on a permanent vacation leaving the old Grocery Store quiet with the two of us. For now we will work on Minecraft and finish up any wanted projects that we need to complete. Thank you to Chris for the opportunity to blog and I will chat with you all soon, I'm sure. 💜

That's right Chris & Larry are back in the saddle and the rest of the staff and you guys are very excited to see the two guys back in the saddle and interested in what shows and movies the two of them have planned out. I heard something through the Grapevine a 2nd Happy Gilmore 2 is in the works too.

New Development with the New Podcast!

        Chris has been talking to the team and sounds like he's made some more development to After Hours with Shane and Chris and he has now to also decide to add this to the list: 

- Dual Streams: YouTube & Twitch- Once our account is back online, the show will be on both platforms and he is actually going to run by the other half of the show. Very exciting to see the live shows being on both platforms.
