How Many Topics Do I Have for the Podcast?

            So you probably wondering how many topics I have for Entertainment Man Podcast? I have well over 100 topics for ideas and ended up with more then I could chew but that's OK, I am happy to say the podcast is going to be sticking around for a while longer. The more interviews it just extends the topics I have which is wonderful news honestly. It is just a regular routine for me with the interviews and there has been weeks where I had a ton of em. 

          However with extra time, I do the topics and really wanna dive into them a bit more and I want to make the time and an idea has come to me but I have well over 100 different ideas. This comes from conversations I have had with you whether it was in DM's or comments on Social Media or through the interviews I am always got some new ideas that keeps this podcast fresh and always different on the episodes I do topics. So there is your answer, as always I will talk to you all on Monday, have a great weekend!

New Studio Looks Great!

             Now a little over a month or 2 now, the CBOTW Studio is busier then ever with two desks and now 2 computers in the studio itself. It is a very busy and hectic studio space with the limited space but it is a good busy space and I have been going back and forth from the new computer to the old one for certain things like editing the video side of things of the podcast to typing and creating notes for podcasts on Microsoft Word. My vision for this studio is exactly what I was thinking when I envisioned this.

              But about minus a few things such as the desk is half on the rug and the stool is hard to move around at times. However there is only certain space in here we can use and I do not want to take up Larry's or the guest mic space whatsoever and there can be room for a shift in the main desk possibly and moving it right a tiny bit so my big chair doesn't bang or the other idea was to get rid of the side wheelie desk perhaps and move my grandmas desk over a foot but not sure if that will work much so for now I am leaving everything as it is for now. Anyways that is the post for today I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Won't be Playing on My Minecraft Server Much Anymore...

               The title doesn't lie cause I will not be playing much on my Minecraft server anymore as I am out of ideas and the world has just become way to big at this point but you never know I may end up logging back into it down the road who the heck knows. There is only so much you really can do in the world to be quite honest and I have thought about an underground railway but this means aligning it with the current and it would have to go under the house itself meaning my house so that has been scrapped all together. So I'm not sure what I'll honestly do with the game moving forward.

                 I may try modded world single player perhaps or really get into the Lunar Client some more see what I can actually do in that game. I am just discovering things and started to explore underground. Not exactly sure the purpose of the game right now and it is a stripped down of the normal vanilla Minecraft as it doesn't have certain things like netherrack and I do not even know if it has a Nether portal and this is all things I truly need to discover but I want to upgrade the house at some point to cobblestone at the most but need the materials to do that. So that is the post and what I am planning with the game in the future but I think I am going to not play it as much and focus on other games in the meantime. As always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Entertainment Man Podcast will be the Last YouTube Channel I Have EVER!

              As you know I have had my issues with platform and I have made a very crucial decision that Entertainment Man Podcast will be the last channel that ChrisBOnTheWeb has cause I do not like what they've been doing and I talked about it on a podcast but the door is closing on me being involved on the platform that makes you verify links for every upload you do and ends up being denied. I have reached out numerous times and just the same answer yet they were going to look into it but nothing. 

             My decision is final and if I need to do video down the road, it'd be elsewhere honestly but any other projects, it will remain on Audio ONLY and that is the goal from here on besides Entertainment Man, I mean other podcasts like The CBOTW Show will be Audio ONLY, here on ChrisBOnTheWeb.com, iTunes, Spotify, Castbox, Tunein.com, iHeartRadio, Amazon Music and so forth. I think I am starting to turn back to focusing on this website more then anything else. If Entertainment Man was to stop which there is no plans to stop at this point, but if it was to the YouTube Page would probably be taken down on the website down the road, just saying but again no plans to end my beloved Entertainment Man Podcast, it is here to stay. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow.

This Week I Am Away For a Few Days...

              This week I will be away for a few days on a personal matter with my family that week so I am preparing blogs for 2 weeks so this way when I am away posts will continue and I am only gone from May 9th - 11th. So that isn't too bad but the only thing that will be changing is the end of the week blog posts as that will be not happening this week whatsoever. I will be away for 3 days and not available I wanna make sure you guys are getting some kind of post done.

             Please do respect my privacy at this time while I am away, once I am back I will be back to recording for you guys and creating blogs and what not but for now I am with family and dealing with personal things right now. I am glad I wrote this blog in advance and as for the podcast it is just normal topic episodes while I am doing personal things so interviews were not booked during the 2 weeks that I blocked off as I am doing personal things right now. Anyways that is the post, will talk to you tomorrow on the next blog post.

Then the podcast will be silent till end of 2024 early 2025 when we pop back up again as it will be more on a regular schedule for Larry and I. 

Discord Updates: With the server, as you probably noticed there is another yellow name that's been added to my "Team." I have welcomed Chloe who is the sister of my Community Manager Sophie back to the team on a temporary basis for right now to help us with the graphical end for the 10th anniversary next year, so we welcome her back with open arms.

          Anyways those are the updates for the week, I will not be around much the next few weeks, but my Team will always be around if you may have questions I will be back with new blogs a 2 weeks Monday but don't worry I have written a bunch of posts for the next two weeks between Monday and Friday.

Today was Suppose to be a Review....

          Today was suppose to be a review but cause of the weather, had to cancel the review till another day. Honestly I am sick of this rainy weather. I know it is that time of the year especially with it now spring time. I was honestly looking forward to a slice of Pizza but today opens up to Larry and I having pizza here with one of our frozen Pizzas we have which is good. Either way I had pizza regardless of it was yesterday. Nothing wrong with comfort food once and a while. 

            So tomorrow marks the second last blog post for a while as I will be away next week for 3 days I'll be sure to make it up for the Pizza Munno later on this month, early June at the most but I do wanna try it out and I promise you guys that I will indeed get to that review but for right now, I made this post to just explain myself why there was no review and honestly you guys didn't know about this. Actually this was written in case the Pizza plans didn't pan out for yesterday due to the weather. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Gaming Updates [05-03-2023]

              I have several of gaming updates to give you guys. I thought since now gaming blogs are very sporadic like monthly to every 2 months, it is just time for an update at the moment:

Minecraft:  I have completed the village where that apartment building that kept hindering problems with the build. Also took out the basketball court and built it on the backside of the studio Office Building that is built. Now I am working on lighting in the arena which the basketball court is now removed while I do the relighting of the arena to brighten it up. Also I plan on working on the baseball stadium too to brighten up the stadium there too. I have a couple of ideas! After that, probably will not be playing much after that. 

GTA 5: Since GTA 4 crashed the file of the saved files of both with Roman and Nico & The Lost MC expansion, I have jumped back into GTA 5 (Grand Theft Auto 5) Just completed the huge jewellery store heist on the game and now playing with Trevor which he's one crazy person in the game one of my faves honestly. 

Luck Be The Landlord:  Well, I am now at level 9 out of 12 and getting closer and close to the end of the first floor. Still grinding on the game either way.

            Those are the gaming updates, the next one, I do not know what the plan is moving forward with gaming updates, might be a month, may be 2 months till the next one who knows honestly. That is the post and I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Will I Be Booking Interviews While I'm Busy?

              The question that I am sure you guys are asking will I be booking  while I am busy and the answer is NO, I will not be. Because I would need to take the time to come up with questions, get Skype video setup and other things that involve me being at the computer. I am going to be just super busy with family and the 21st I am happy to announce something this week's final end of the week updates for a few weeks time. You have to wait till end of the week. 

              So I am slowing down and already turned on my availability on Matchmaker to unavailable as I am winding down on interviews for right now. However, if you email entertainmentmanpod@gmail.com we are more then happily able to direct you to the Calendly and book for the week of May 21st which is the date I plan on doing interviews again as I will be coming off of my hiatus for the few weeks that I am not going to be available for. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow. 

Chris

The Busy Schedule Begins!

           The emotions and stress is starting for me this week and not about ChrisBOnTheWeb just some family drama going on and worrying about a week from now. With me recording podcasts today and editing the final set of podcasts and then edit it all and schedule them to post.  Now this weekend will be the last premiere for a few weeks as I will be busy with the family at the time plus Celebration of Life for my grandma then flying out to Quebec for her burial, I will not be available or even in my studio much over the next while. Any work that is done will be through my iPad or pad of paper. 

          This week is my last week of recording for a good 2 weeks as I plan on not being behind the mic whatsoever. I will be working on notes while I am not around but I will be sure to pop on the computer and Discord and if I have time to do a live stream with updates if I have the time as it will be a busy next few weeks for me. When I get back I know it will again be hectic for me still getting back into interviews which I will touch on tomorrow's blog so I will talk to you all tomorrow.

End of The Week Updates [04-28-2023]

          Hi everyone!

      Not sure how to do this end of the week updates as I am new to it as when I was with ChrisBOnTheWeb last year in End of October - November sometime, he never asked me to do posts on here. Now there has been a bunch of drama the past few weeks and yesterday night topped it off. Took him 6 hours to pop up on Discord again as we noticed him fiddling around with the colors on the roles of the server so I know he was coming around. Big thank you to my sister Chloe for being there and trying to support everyone during all the community Discord.. 

      Chris is done with interviews right now and doesn't have any other interviews scheduled at this moment. So he is working on the collab for now while he is available at this moment. That is his priority at the moment. If he does not get any requests he will be off from interviews which he will have to record both a week this Sunday and Thursdays mid week next week. Things are winding down for him for content wise as he will be away soon. Reminder that this weekend's Entertainment Man Podcast will NOT be PREMIERED on YouTube due to Chris being out of town this Sunday so he will be posting it up on YouTube. That is all I have to say, have a good weekend and I will be seeing you all around the community! 💜

Merger On Hold For Now...

              I know there has been a lot of talk about the merger between Power Rangers Collab and The CBOTW Show but now that talk has suddenly died down. The reason behind that is cause I am not sure what the direction I wanna take with it to be quite honest. This is something I need to talk to Larry about. I had an idea that I could do another series between on my own but this will take a lot of thought and decisions to make in the end as I do not wanna leave it too inactive too long where I lose subscribers and bad ratings. 

            However I know Entertainment Man Podcast is # 1 on my list always but I do not mind actually planning out side stuff and maybe I could review movies that Larry and I never review do the one odd one off podcasts besides the series stuff I do with Larry? However this will take time to figure out the logistics behind The CBOTW Show, but it will be happening and still am aiming for 2025 relaunch after it would have been off the air for nearly 3 - 4 years. So #TheCBOTWShow hashtag on Twitter will be silent for a while and this will be the only time I use it to promote this topic till it is time for us to re-launch this and we've wrapped up production for Power Rangers Collab and merged then two together. That is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow for the end of the week updates!

Chris

What Will Happen When I'm Away May 9th - 11th?

              I know there has been questions what is going on with when I am away in Quebec well this is difficult as my Community Manager, Sophie is going to be busy with her move back across country back to Ontario to be closer to me so we can have in person meetings plus some other reasons she didn't want me to mention but it will be good to see her in person again. So I have already made some adjustments while I am away and will be permanent:

- DandyLion has been added as a Moderator on both the Facebook Fan Page and Discord Server. She will be Sophie's eyes and ears when shes on the road travelling as she's leaving May 8th to start her trek from BC to Ontario. 

- Sophie will look into the Facebook Fan Page every night while she's travelling out here so she will try and be active on there. 

- Discord Server Staff: Sophie-CBOTW (Sophie88); Admin: Tacofreak08 & Moderators, Sugarfreak08 & Dandylion1113 will be there and if Sophie isn't available then, Tacofreak, my nephew is next in power followed by the mods.

- Also Dandylion1113 has access to the messages so can try and help you out as much as they can but Sophie will be around.

- Any episodes of the podcast on Entertainment Man Podcast's YouTube Channel will be just posted, no premieres while I am busy with family stuff going on. 

- Final thing I wanted to add is Sophie will be keeping an eye out on both the general inquiry email CBOTWBiz & Entertainment Man Podcast's emails and answering any questions but replies may be a bit delayed as she will be travelling during the day and resting at night till she gets to Ontario.

             Hope this clears things up for you guys and that is today's post for today and as always I will speak to you all tomorrow for another blog post.

Let's Talk Entertainment Man Podcast!

           With the podcast now almost halfway through it's 4th season and 3rd year on the air, I have started to feel a bit tense and frustrated with the podcast. I want serious inquiries with Entertainment Man Podcast. I take this podcast serious and I've had requests that never happened. This is just a friendly reminder that I want serious inquiries and that is all I really ask. Communication is key always in the end. I wish there was something I could do but it takes both sides to get things rolling. All I ask my potential guests is to check email, social media and Matchmaker. One thing that is needed with the frustrations is a lot of patience which at times it has been tested but handling things a lot better, I've learned so much about this process. I could a podcast about it and maybe I should!

        Also with my interview now wrapped there is a few things I need to work on with the podcast, one of them, being figuring out some things with the interview side of things, need to figure out what I can do to try and improve things one of them being my sound quality as there has been issues with the sound going high at some times and the other thing is to see if I can figure out how to handle interview requests a bit better and it is definitely me that wants to improve things so things flow a bit better. That is where I'm at right now, I can only improve things from here on out and is uphill from here. I'm not sure if there will be anymore interviews between now and when I leave for the province of Quebec but I will be sure to keep you guys in the loop on that. Maybe I will take a bit of a break till the 21st of May. Anyways that is the post, I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Collab Will Is Off The Air Till June!

           With today being the last post for a month with the collab, this helps me move to the next step for that podcast. Which is me working on the Anniversary this week as well as working on the next collab for June 1st, 2023. Plus editing Entertainment Man Podcast all in the mix as well it will be a very busy and hectic week and next few weeks for me in the way of prepping podcasts to be recorded. 

           However even tho the collab is off the air for a month, there will be probably no updates for about a month till I know I am ready to record. I know the schedule entails Larry and I recording the anniversary and we are recording practically a month ahead but it will not be posted right away it will be on hold in the meantime. Anyways that is what I have to say and the post for today as always I'll talk to you all tomorrow.

End of The Week Updates [04-21-2023]

            Another week has come to an end and it has been hectic! This is not your normal updates. First I tried my hardest to work on Ninja Steel and I know I need to make sure I actually work on it this week. It is a # 1 priority however with being busy with Entertainment Man Podcast and Power Rangers Forever and Always, I haven't had the time to simply work on it whatsoever. The dynamics with work has been all over the place but hopefully this weekend while I am editing the collab from yesterday, I will get into it and work on it. So I will be working on both so I will be bouncing back and forth between the two of them. 

           Also the crazy drama I had to remove two members of my team in the week for causing some drama and putting my foot down on it, will not tolerate it. So Sophie is back helping out so if you are in the server or see a post on Facebook please welcome her back with open arms. She's been in the server all week long and just got back onto Social Media but glad to still have the help and hopefully things run smoother as there is a ton of work and content to be done before the end of July. That is the post for today, have a great weekend and I will talk to you all on Monday!

Sometimes I Take On Too Much!

               I know there is a lot of moving parts with ChrisBOnTheWeb, from these blogs to podcasts to being active in the server which I have been quiet on there on and off from time to time. This is why I want to wrap up Power Rangers Collab and merge it with the other one in case of future seasons that comes out. But with Power Rangers Collab being merged with the other podcast The CBOTW Show and down to two shows currently up and running, this means things are going to be great and better to be honest! 

              I need to remember to take time to myself but not too much time when it comes to creating content, I need to get it done still on a timely basis. Also have to remember that I cannot take on too much all at once and this is why I have a list and a bit of a schedule to follow but I cannot take on too much at once and I have a bad habit of doing that quite often so it isn't good whatsoever. Anyways that is the post for today I will talk to you all tomorrow for the end of the week updates, so enjoy the rest of your day as I will by the time you read this Larry and I have been finished with the 30th Anniversary Special for Power Rangers Forever and Always. 

Chris

Got a Little Ahead of Myself!

             I know I got a little ahead of myself with Entertainment Man Podcast and it is my own doing because I should of not even mentioned beyond 266th episode of the podcast. I know I said I wasn't going to even do anything too special till the 500th episode after the 200th surpasses in the fall as there is soon to be 29 more episodes till the 200th hits. I should of kept quiet about the 500th cause I am a long waaaay off from the 500th and who knows how long this podcast will be around for, right. 

             I am only focused right now on the current season and the 200th which is looming fast! Also I need to focus on wrapping up all 29 seasons of Power Rangers as well so me getting a little ahead of myself is not in the cards even tho I am currently planning the 10th anniversary as I stated on Monday which was 2 days ago. However certain things I need to give myself a bit of leeway and that I am doing with two things on my list at this moment. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Chris

Schedule Will be Changing

            With the schedule for interviews are being adjusted and the future schedule is going back to original schedule I had last week as someone cannot make up their mind and changes things on me constantly. I am just sticking to my Wednesdays off from interviews. Technically I  can do half a day for work and will be a normal work day but as for interviews, I am not planning to doing any of the interviews. Other then that I am available any of the other days the hours vary and there may be times I need to book off due to personal reasons but will make sure it is booked off way in advance!

             So days available are as follows: 

Sundays 2 pm - 4 pm EDT; 6 - 7 pm EDT

Mondays: 10 am - 4 pm EDT; 6 - 9 pm EDT

Tuesdays: 10 am - 4 pm EDT; 6 - 9 pm EDT 

Wednesday: Day off

Thursdays: 10 am - 4 pm EDT; 6 - 9 pm EDT

Fridays: 10 am - 4 pm EDT; 6 - 9 pm EDT

Saturdays: 10 am - 4 pm EDT; 7 - 9 pm EDT

             So that is the schedule for interviews and typical week, not typical week but the availability for Entertainment Man Podcast. Whether you email entertainmentmanpod@gmail.com or through Matchmaker.fm, that is what my availability looks like. I will talk to you all tomorrow as usual.

10th Anniversary Planning is Underway!

 

          I know I said I was unsure about the 10th anniversary was unknown but with the push of Jim and Brianna, I have decided to become active with 10th anniversary planning which is now in the early stages. We have started a testing website which him and I only have access to it. From time to time we will post up sneak peeks but the pre-planning has begun with the graphical end being worked on for the 10th anniversary! We want to ensure the website plans to decorate the website goes without an issue. 

          I know we are a year and a half away from the anniversary but we want to make sure everything goes off without a hitch. That is only phase 1 and I am planning to do it in phases. Hopefully by next week, I will actually have a list of things to do and phases for the planning so I can keep you guys informed and a timeline to getting things done. I may share it next week but this is truly exciting stuff for the website going on. We hope to have a 10th Anniversary tab somewhere down the line too. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow!
