What's Happening With Our YouTube Channel?

                So, what is going on with our YouTube Channel that just popped up which has been around for just over a month now and slowly getting back online. So as you know and remember Entertainment Man Podcast & The CBOTW Show was on YouTube and now is part of one channel. Similar to one of my favorite podcasts, RHAP. So right now I am posting videos till I can verify the channel just videos on there for right now. I plan on having a video out today at some point on FB/Instagram/TikTok & YouTube. 

           Once we get things up and running we will add the RSS Feed and all episodes each week will be posted through that. While we are doing that we will be posting up old episodes of Entertainment Man Podcast and The CBOTW Show as there is episodes from both podcast and shorts we want to post up. There will be a lot of posting and community fun and I'm sure I may do the occasional premieres with old episodes. It will be fun to remember all the great interviews and shows I did. 

           Entertainment Man Podcast will be back on video as of end of the year if all goes well with posting up the old shows and what not. However The CBOTW Show will have all NEW content Video/Audio ONLY in the meantime, with both Larry, myself, Bob and myself and other amazing collaborations will keep you guys busy and the Audio ONLY for Entertainment Man Podcast. Anyways sorry for the lengthy post and that is the plan moving forward and I will place the last two paragraphs edited to the channel's community tab and as always talk to you all tomorrow.

Addressing The Spotify/Other Audio ONLY Platforms Issues...

              So addressing the elephant in the room with the issues with the Entertainment Man Podcast and I know I sounded quite angry and was a very angry person. You know I am a perfectionist and I shouldn't be a perfectionist but I am who I am and that is OK honestly. However, the problem and issue that we experienced was because when we redirected the Spotify Feed it wasn't updating on other platforms. I checked the RSS Feed with iTunes and it still was on Castbox so sounds like the redirect didn't work. 

              So now I have scrapped Spotify all together but I will use it as a 3rd party website which it will be posted via Castbox.  So we are back with Castbox and one of the reasons I kept Castbox in tact as I wouldn't be able to reupload as their a paid service now. Anyways everything is working and only platform I am waiting on deleting the original feed is Spotify. Anyways I have another blog post waiting in the wing and it will be up at 1 pm EST so I will talk to you all then.

The CBOTW Show 2025!

             First blog of 2025 for me and we are right into the meats and cheeses of things with 2025 here means another crazy year for us in the way. But first... lol I pulled a Julie Chen Moonves. Anyways 2025 is going to be busy not just for this podcast but Entertainment Man Podcast in the guests on the show and interviews done. As you know last year we made the announcement that a Canadian Show would be recapped and talked about and this year we are proud to say we are covering the following shows:

Monk- The Detective series that has become very popular. This will be on my own probably Wednesdays @ 1 pm EST.

Corner Gas- The long awaited RECAP of Corner Gas with Bob and myself is happening at the end of the month of January and episodes posted weekly. 

Ghostwriter- The long and anticipated wait since the announcement at the start of last year Larry and I will be working on the Ghostwriter series which we've had enough time off from it so we hope to start that in February as well.

               Those are the 3 series I want to focus on this year and don't worry I plan on movies here and there, Halloween month and Christmas Season episodes will be back in 2025 don't worry about that. However that is the post for today and I will talk to you all Monday as we start our first full week here at CBOTW Media Studios.

Little More About Me.

           You know who I am, my name is Sara, I am the CEO of the company. I have a bit of a extensive background in media like Chris has. I haven't been in media as long as him. I started at the age of 25, 5 years less then him. I was the COO of a company for 5 years, prior to this, I have worked in a radio office department as the Program Director, programming the music. I never was behind the mic much, maybe a few times. 

            Outside of of work, I like to game and I talked about it at the start of the week. I have two nieces and spend a lot of time with them when I am not at the helm of running this fantastic company. I love going for walks. Also Chris and I see each other quite often at the mall, we walk around have lunch monthly just to get an update on the podcasts as he's been working ever so hard on finishing. I love to read, watch TV Shows. Chris got me into Elsbeth, Matlock and The High Potential so him and I often jump on a call and watch together through Skype. Not much more I can tell you about me, except I use to live North of him and now one town over that takes 15 minutes to meet with him which is better. I will chat with you all tomorrow for the end of the week Updates.

            Happy New Year! 

We are officially in a brand new year! We're excited to what is coming next. Chris has some big announcement coming out tomorrow. I really do not know what the announcement but sounds like really huge news that is coming our way! This year, what I have been told by Chris is The CBOTW Show will have 2 shows per week sometimes and he's hinted in recording a ton more of those as Entertainment Man Podcast is a weekly radio podcast so I am excited to hear new episodes and hopefully things are a but smoother and I know it will be now that he has a full-proof plan with the podcasts. 

       Also we will be launching something here on the website in regards to The CBOTW Show so I am looking forward to it. We look forward to hitting the 1 million view mark on our website. Not sure what other things we are planning but I can say Chris is going to be streaming on Twitch more as he's started to grow our channel Twitch which is great. So once again Happy New Year, let's make this year a great year, I am so proud of my team and look forward to serving as the Companies CEO and I will talk to you on Friday for our first end of the week updates.

Year In Review w/ CEO Sara!

          This year has been a year from heck. Was a struggle for Chris, Larry, Kevin and I. From YouTube Drama to leaving YouTube to returning on only one channel to some big News on January 2nd, 2025. Entertainment Man Podcast had a lot of interviews the first half of the year then it calmed down. However that did not stop Chris from creating episodes. He thinks he knows why things have settled down and that was because Entertainment Man Podcast was only on Sundays as the second day was removed but he's reversing some things in 2025. I will explain on January 1st, 2025 (tomorrow.) 

         A lot of changes with Boss Man Chris personally and professionally. We saw for the first time in 10 years change in leadership. I officially took over on November 15th, 2024 as CEO of the company and meant a lot of changes and adjustments. The CBOTW Show saw a major struggle to get done with issues with the Audio ONLY Platforms. We really struggled but we've got things back on track. Still working on things. This year we saw a lot of growth on our website, 2 - 3k in views per day, between 30 and 40k a month which is totally astonishing and we reached 800 and 900k this year and hope 2025 we finally hit that 1 Million mark in views in the New Year. That is 2024 in a nut shell, we look forward to more in 2025 and continue to get things back on track and I think we are on the right track. 


I wish you all a very Happy New Year and I will talk to you all in 2025!

Do I Ever Do Gaming With Chris?

             Do I ever do gaming with Chris? Yes of Course. Sometimes I will pop up on Fortnite to help him with the Lego world. However now the game crashes on us both and our drivers are always up to date on my computer and his in the studio. So we haven't played for a while till we figure out the issue at hand. 

         I have been playing a ton of Minecraft with him and helping him with the towers and completing floor after floor so we can move onto other bigger projects as he wants to build an university with dorms and the buildings for classes which is a really, really cool idea and we've been talking about the build and how we want to do it too. So yes I do play games with him and enjoy doing so especially on our days off on a Sunday when he's not even planned on streaming. Will chat with you tomorrow for the end of the year in review blog.

Blue Rodeo Concert!

               Sorry for the lateness of this post but Saturday night my parents and I went to see Blue Rodeo which is an older band from the 80's and on and I love their music, songs like "Try" "Rose Colored Glasses" to name a couple of songs. Oh the Railroad or Railway song was neat too, I really liked that one. There was a bunch. However before I get into that, there was a band that opened for Blue Rodeo and wasn't too pleased and the acoustics and speaker sounded muffled and something needs to be fixed and it's non of the bands fault, the venue needs to update their speaker system. 

                Now that I got that out of the way, I didn't know a lot of songs but two as I said before but they were good! They still sound the same and they never let up once even though the first band spent 45 minutes opening for Blue Rodeo they never took a break as a band normally does with a concert so that was a bonus. The last fun thing I want to say is we got to stand up and dance and sing along with a song. Also they sang the song "Try" which is one of my favorite two songs from the band. Anyways that is the post for tonight... LOL... I am laughing cause in the history of the blog, I've never posted it this later but I will talk to you all in the New Year when I return on January 6th, 2025 for more posts from me so enjoy some Sara blogs in the meantime and Happy New Year!

The CBOTW Show is Returning To Audio ONLY Platforms in 2025!

              I know I have been away from posts for a bit now and I totally forgotten to ANNOUNCE that The CBOTW Show is indeed RETURNING to Audio ONLY, outside of our website starting in January. Due to New Years Day being on our normal scheduled, the first episode of 2025 has been scheduled to January 8th, 2025. We have ONLY the one feed, as trying to get 2 really proved difficult which our expansion we have to be careful with our wording and things will have to be switched around when the time comes. 

              At this time of this post being posted, I am working on the Audio ONLY Feed. This is why we are on a brief hiatus. By New Years, we will be ready to post up 52 episodes a year with no break! That is how serious we are with The CBOTW Show. Now the schedule we have for 2025 remains in tact. Just now we are on more platforms then we have been the last few months. We are planning to stay Audio ONLY for now but we could by Spring be on Spotify Video as well like my podcast is on. Anyways be ready because we're coming back fast and the furious like the movies yes but no cars so stay tuned for our first show in January and you never maybe a New Years episode is in the cards or even 2 days after you never know but I will talk to you all this afternoon for another blog post on this Special Sunday edition!

He is taking some well deserved time away from the blog. But this doesn't mean he will not be active in the studio. Starting tomorrow he is back till December 30 then off for December 31st, 2024 & January 1st, 2025. So this means I will be covering for him on Thursday next week as well as my regular post., This is a great chance to get to know me a little more. I plan on doing a post for you all to kind of get to know me further. 

        Anyways, The final episode of The CBOTW Show went up this morning which means Chris and I have been trying to get it all done earlier in the week but been working on Christmas Eve to finish it all hence we are taking till today off and back to it tomorrow.

Podcasts Have Wrapped up for 2024!

          With Podcasts wrapped up, Chris can start focusing on new content and he has projects he wants to start working on for The CBOTW Show. Pretty much he knows his role with Entertainment Man Podcast and knows what he needs to get done. When we return to work on Saturday he has a couple of things he wants to work on: Put away the 2024 notes and start a brand new folder for it; Clean up the studio, clean and organize the studio; Work on a few episodes of Entertainment Man Podcast to get the year started; Work on Matilda Podcast for January 8th, 2025. 

         Then he is going start on Ghostwriter & Corner Gas. Not sure how in the world he will do those it as he's made it sound very complicated but I trust his process and very, very excited for 2025 and the collaborations he's got planned. Sounds like Bob and Chris and Larry and Chris have exciting stuff planned out for 2025. Right now he is not slated to record till January 2nd, 2025 for both podcasts. That is the post and I shall return tomorrow for the end of the week updates but pretty much did those today but there is other things I'd like to update you all with.

What Am I Thankful during the Christmas Season?

                So what am I thankful for this Christmas Season? Of course Family. They have supported me through the thick and thin of things this year with my Autism Meds dosage changed and going through the diagnosis with Anxiety. My family, my parents, my brother, sister in law, my niece and nephew. Not just my family but neighbors who knows my involvement with the company both as Founder/CEO & Director of Content/Executive Producer/Host/Blogger. 

                 Also my friends and the team have been at my side especially with this year being a really rough year with friendships and issues with the team and with me stepping down as CEO was a major change in my life and I am thankful for the team supporting me on my decision. Also the community for having my back during the changes and it's been a bit crazy mess this year but thankful a lot of you stuck around. Anyways that is the post for today, Wish you and your families a very Merry Christmas and I will talk to you all in the New Year!

               Alas! We've been updating constantly our website and always room for improvement and this is why we have perfection our schedules and our website and been playing around with it way too much and sticking to the schedule, Sara and I created together and two spots for The CBOTW Show so we are most definitely sharing the love between the two shows. I should of not tried to go to 3 shows a week  but stick to the 2 shows a week perhaps. 

             Plus you have to remember, I stream quite often these days, well not at this moment as the holidays approach, I will not be on as much but might pop up here and there. I am going to try and pack in a bunch of streams today, tomorrow and Saturday then I probably will not be on till Boxing Day so it will be quiet for a bit in the way of streams but once I return then we are full force again.

Counting down to Studio Shutdown for 3 days!

                Less than a week from now, I will be talking 2.5 days off from ChrisBOnTheWeb so I am finish up all the recording and editing I need to get done so we can post during the 2.5 day break. There is a possibility we are going to shutdown on Boxing day too but we will let you all know but I am pretty sure it will be 3.5 days and then we are back on the 27th. This way I can work on preparing new episodes for the New Year as things should be back to normal. 

                After Christmas between the 27th - 30th, I will work on new episodes for both podcasts and will work on the Podcasts.com issue and going to email them again because I do not appreciate being totally ignored so I am going to keep emailing them till they stop ignoring me. I have a plan when it comes to that but I will update once we are confirmed and back online with other platforms. Anyways I look forward to 3 days off and been told to take it off by boss lady Sara. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Website Changes, New Idea!

               Website has been changed up once again and this is cause of the issues with our audio only platform we are with and I've decided to have one feed for TV and Movies and we will add a dedicated feed to Reality TV if we chose to go down that route down the road. I have a plan with all of that doesn't involved YouTube nor Rumble whatsoever. I am planning to utilize Spotify a ton more both audio and video and this way I do not have to worry about those platforms. That is kind of the reason why we went down to one website page for the time being till I decide to launch the Reality TV side again down the road. 

               I will probably be waiting for the expansion till May or June to finding some hosts for the podcast but that will be later on. The first step will be us getting the Audio ONLY fixed first. However I have changed everything around, Entertainment Man Podcast will be on Spotify Video & Audio ONLY; meanwhile The CBOTW Show will be Audio ONLY like it has been recently but doesn't mean we are getting rid of video all together. More details are coming on Thursday but as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!
