Discord Server done! Back on Threads!

           Well, well the weekend was productive from recording, to editing podcasts to re-building my Discord Community for the very last time which you can find it here: https://discord.com/invite/FQp2U7pNtj or on the left side of our page with all the other links as we have grown our social media a tad bit but glad to have Discord back into the loop of things. 

           Also Threads is back into the picture now http://www.threads.com/@cbotwmedia and we just want to get noticed more now that YouTube is out of the picture and we are focusing on our website and I will talk about that tomorrow but the more social the better. So the last several days, we have been busy with things and both are done and working on tomorrow's blog post about what the plan is this week to get finished Wednesday the YouTube thing then Thursday talking about the Reality TV Podcasts as well and finally Friday talking about the events we will or I will be at this year. So another busy week ahead of us. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Any updates on Ghostwriter?

            I know it is January and right now, we are finishing up the first season and after that, there will be open slot on our schedule as Larry will be and has been on leave but I have seen and recieved messages and I've mentioned him on social media and people are wondering when? When are we going to go back? 

            Well I do not know but I can say next week, I will be working on the next batch of Ghostwriters with the same format as before and I believe it is a shorter season and so is season 3 so there should be no problem getting it done so we can move on to another series and we have another one picked out already! Anyways, I think and believe it will be either mid year or fall 2026 to early January 2027 when we return as you know I have to mail out his package of notes to him up north and that will take a bit of time as he's not local so I need time to work on that and get it out to him. So more like later in the year and Larry and I haven't discussed it and I am obviously writing this before he hops on and have 0 information but if I do by now, I will be sure to update you next week as that is the post for today and week, have a great weekend!

Gaming Updates! [01-07-2026]

             Gaming updates for you guys from Mall Simulator to water Park simulator to Minecraft, here are your updates:

Minecraft: With the ice surface ready for lines and eventually the ice surface but there are some things I want to change, perhaps one end with no seats or just a basic rink you see with just the ends but it is just ideas however the roof with bricks this time around as something different is being put on so it will be out of the elements which it has been for months now since the initial floor and wall built. The glass walls haven't been put up but that will be next along with the glass floor for the second floor plus stairs and what not. It is progress is coming a long. 

Water Park Simulator: It is coming along and it has been chaotic with staff standing around and maybe I need to fire majority of people and realign the staff once again but that takes money and a bit of time but aiming for 4 stars at the moment and closing in on it, just gotta figure out how to. 

Mall Simulator: I am working on the Sushi Bar store near the front of the mall on the second floor and it is expensive! Very Expensive, however getting there and the top floor is my priority and getting close to being finished ready for the next version of this game to being release which should be by now or even any day now.

            Those are the gaming updates and hope you enjoyed my banter and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

The CBOTW Show- Reality TV Recaps isn't done yet!

           The CBOTW Show- Reality TV Recaps isn't done! Survivor 50 & Traitors are on it's way and Traitors US Season 4 starts at the end of the week so that is indeed exciting for us and I will personally be covering it this season. If I need to jump onto Survivor 50 recaps, I will but we will figure a way around it as it's Billy's domain for the shows actually. I am just excited to be somewhat involved with a show either way even if it is several months apart. 

          This week on Friday @ 6 pm EST the first episode that will be released to you guys publicly and will be on both Video and Audio ONLY and I will talk about the schedules tomorrow on another blog post but expect more from the Reality TV Recaps as we continue to grow this network more and more and I know we are on the right track with shows and what not. Anyways that is the post for today and as always talk to you all tomorrow!

Website Changes Galore!

            As you can tell, we have updated the website and here is more details on the changes.

Removed: After Hours with Shane and Chris ended before it began due to tech issues but you guys knew that but that page has been removed. The CBOTW Show- Reality TV Get involved is removed and down but it will be returning in the spring to expand our network. Chat has been removed due to inactivity and just better we use social media.

Updated: The FAQ (Frequently Asked questions), Meet The Team, Entertainment Man Podcast, The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies, Community Schedule (for content.) Archives have been updated on our website to assure the entire website is totally up to speed.

Re-Added: Well added wise, we re-added events to the list but under it's own page called "Events" and can be found there and is active. We also re-added "The CBOTW Show- Reality TV Recaps" as it is becoming an active show on our network.

         I know it's a ton of updates and hopefully we can leave things alone minus updating the podcast pages as shows come through the week and are posted but for now that is the post for today and I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Goals for 2026!

              Since we are now in 2026 it is time to specify our goals for 2026. Remember what I said on the second last motivational Friday start with small goals then go for the bigger ones, split up the goals into small ones:

Entertainment Man Podcast: Take a crack at mine and you guy's favorite podcast and try and regain your trust for just ending it with no notice nothing. 

The CBOTW Show- TV & Movies: Continue to collaborate with Bob and some other people, possibly even doing more Ghostwriter with Larry perhaps depending when he is ready to record again.  Also Dancing with the Stars Podcast with Mary is in the works as long as the show gets renewed. 

After Hours with Shane & Chris: Really take off with this new talk show and still possibly stream it to a site but not sure where and how at this moment. If not then record and post it on Saturdays @ 3 pm EST.

Hit 2 Million views! I know this is something I'd like to get to and we are currently closing in on that milestone. 

Collaboration: Would love to continue to collaborate with people and could bring back the Collaboration Podcast that would be website based even just as a collaboration perhaps. 

Finally get paid: We have been with adsense and we really hope and wish that we would start getting payments from Adsense as we need to hit the cap in ordered to be paid. 

Drama & Stress Free Year: This year I would like to have just 1 year without stress, problems and dramarama as that hasn't helped my mental health but besides the point. I want to remain focused to our goals to continue being successful.

Anyways those are our goals for 2026, once again Happy New Year, enjoy your weekend and as always talk to you all on Monday!

Chris

Happy New Year! [2026 is here!]

            Happy New Year! This is the year of change! I know I've said that before but this year is all about The CBOTW Show & After Hours with Shane and Chris! There will be a lot of goals that we have for this year and this is also the year of massive growth to our network, mainly the shows that we have which is 3 at the moment but we have 3 days of a busy schedule. However there might be an additional day added: Saturdays if we get extra busy with shows and if Larry is ready and I'm collaborating we have the extra day in case our schedule gets extra busy. 

        This year I am quite, no.... I'm estatic for this year just because YouTube & Twitch are behind us now and I can focus on the content and even streaming on the social media platforms like we use to before we returned to YouTube and basically continuing to grow ChrisBOnTheWeb.com as well is what we are planning to do this year. No more of this drama, we are taking the company serious as we continue to grow, flourish and hopefully expand our network as well. Anyways that is the post, I will talk to you all tomorrow!

End of The Year Wrap-Up! [Goodbye 2025}

              Goodbye 2025 and good riddance really. Yeah I am bitter as this year has been hell for us with all the drama and what not on our team. I really wish we had team unity and getting along with each other. I always had the motto, teamwork makes the dream work. However with all these changes recently means that we are in the right direction when it comes to fixing all of the problems that has occured in 2025. Also didn't help the amount of Director of Operations, Chief Operating Officers we had plus with me off here and there because of my own mental health, especially my very late night visit to the hospital but we will not discuss that here. I think this year, we were tested to our limits on things and that could have been definitely a good part of the problem too. 

         Positive side of 2025 as I do not want to make this all negative is the change over from Entertainment Man Podcast to doing The CBOTW Show full time and even started to expand the network with that so I am excited with the new year and what is coming next for us, even if we dont cover it right away we have that option for Traitors Canada Season 4 if it is renewed. This year has been productive and the start of changes in the company and 2026 is the year of change as we try to have more fun with doing the new Talk show, The CBOTW Show both podcast continue on. That is the final post for the year and I will talk to you next year (lol)

Last 2 Weeks was Peddle to the Medal!

               Last 2 weeks was peddle to the meddle getting everything that was to be recorded, recorded, edited and scheduled for post. Also scheduling episodes then also working on the now archived Entertainment Man Podcast page. Just finishing all the little loose ends before the studio shuts down for the holidays and I may end up off till January 2nd, 2026 as I need a bit of a vacation but more than likely I will be working on the website behind the scenes but rarely any updates till it is completely finished.

       There has been 0 pressure, just gotten so much done in such a short time and proud of every moment when it comes to getting all the content done and finished so come 2026, I can officially say things are moving very quickly and getting things finished at a quick pace. Anyways that is the post for today and I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Studio has become so High Tech!

            Final edition to the studio is officially here and that is my chair, an early Christmas gift from my parents and hopefully it lasts me 5 - 10 years this time around. Not just that the lights, the two cameras  the three screens, this has really complicated the setup and looks very high tech. The clock as well on the wall digital clock and the lights gives the studio quite a neat studio to step into if you have seen the studio, especially my friends and family that has been in the studio. I am quite proud of this space especially for years to come. 

         There has been so much history when it comes to this studio from it actually having a studio set for when we recorded The Entertainment Man Talk Show since 2013 when The Video Projects Team moved down to this current studio now spanning 12 years in this studio 1 year with TVPT and 11 + years with ChrisBOnTheWeb Media. Anyways that is the post for today and as always talk tomorrow.

Utilizing our website and More!

                For those who have been wondering, I've been sick and have had this news for quite some time and you guys probably have seen the chatroom on our chat tab by clicking "chat" and you can easily access the chatroom and I am usually in there pretty 24-7 with the exception when I'm out on my own or with friends or my family or I've stepped away from the desk or recording a podcast with someone, I am pretty much around unless I'm out and about or recording. 

             So this is why the website has been undergoing a lot of changes to prepare it for major use as of 2026 as we want the website to be more active and we may actually add Saturdays to the blog list. We have also been actively seeing if we can do audio with After Hours with Shane and Chris and I know we can as that is what we've been doing with all our podcasts from the get go. So you will see Staff on the website chats more, we will be answering emails and social media posts and our plan for 2026 is to be more connected to you guys, answering your questions, concerns, compliments and what not. Anyways that is the blog a bit of a sporadic blog as I wanted to come on and I will explain more on a sit down video where on earth I've been the past almost week now and I will talk to you all on Monday (tomorrow) if this goes out by Midnight EST.

Thanks for tuning into our 2500th Blog post! Let's go!

Post Christmas Entry

            It is Boxing day and I still don't feel like working and decided to take a 3rd day off just because I wanted to see the Canadian Juniors game and always a tradition in this household and I love it and I believe my local juniors team has a player or two this season. Also during my time off, I can catch up on shows so I am ready for 2026 and the return of our own favorite shows, High Potential, Elsbeth, Survivor 50 to name a few.

          During the break, I sat down and played some videos like I mentioned earlier in the week. I had so much extra time on my hands to do that when it comes to the world of gaming and yes I even grinded on Super Market Simulator too to get the money and pay off every freakin loan I have. Yeah, I took way too many loans and that is my bad on things. Anyways that is the post for today, Hope you all have a great Boxing Day and enjoy your weekend and talk to you all on Monday!
