Update Part 1 [Health]

             I was suppose to wait till Tuesday to post this as the studio is closed today for Family Day holiday in Ontario but I decided to have this pre-written as today is a holiday and yes the podcast is still scheduled to go up today @ 1 pm EST as pre-usually scheduled on our network. So the update on my own health as some of you have asked about me while I've been absent from the studio the last 2 weeks:

            I'm doing a lot better. The symptoms of this Bug in my stomach seemed to have subsided after nearly 2 weeks. I am eating some solid foods. I am being introduced back to foods, slowly but surely. I've started to doing some work around the studio even tho sitting can be hard especially on my back since I was laid up so long my back is acting up with spasms right now. Nothing like Voltaren or A535 won't do. So do not worry, I am doing just fine. Totally on the mend and slowly getting back into work on stuff back on the weekend and this week. I want to thank the team for having my back and keeping an eye out on things while I was bed ridden for 2 weeks. I am happy to be back and ready to get back to the grind of things. Anyways that will be part 1 of the updates, I have more updates tomorrow.

Weekly Updates [02-14-2025]

        I thought we had Entertainment Man Podcast recorded but apparently not yet but this morning he was planning on recording something. No real updates, just a few website tweaks I mentioned during the week. We have been working on the content aspect of things and preparing for the upcoming week.

        I have mentioned, boss man will be back to the blog on Monday and I believe the plan this weekend is for him to work on some shows for the other podcast. Other then that spending time with the family and he had plans with friends and that could change  but I think he's going to focus on his health next week and stay home. It is family day and it's to spend time with the family and I know he will be doing that. As for streams, there is no mention of him streaming again but maybe this weekend he will pop up for even just an hour of gaming to hang with you guys. Please keep an eye out on the social media for updates when he goes live and I will chat with everyone at the end of next week, enjoy your weekend.

Possible The CBOTW Show Next Week!

         Hopefully next week Chris and Larry will be doing more episodes of The CBOTW Show but we will see how Boss Man is as he's taking it one day at a time. But he's spoken about possibly even just writing notes and reading off of those but he's been back in the studio today a bunch.           

          I am excited for it, I know there has been questions about the Corner Gas Podcast but I do not have the answer for it and I hope it will start soon. He mentioned March he will be watching 4 episodes soon. All I know according to his schedule he has an interview for his other. So please be patient. I know we're eager to be releasing episodes of Corner Gas and Ghostwriter. Question of the day for you is did you guys enjoyed the first 5 episodes Chris and Larry put out and I will chat tomorrow.

Chris and I Made a Decision!

              This is referencing our community chat if you go https://www.chrisbontheweb.com/p/chat.html We have a chatroom and it's just been there, we've not even mentioned the chat whatsoever but it is in the corner, well more like in the Community Tab at the bottom of the list. Chris I think he fixed it late last night. Chris and I are not removing chat yet again but we are doing it for security reasons due to some late night trolls on the chat, but as of 11 pm EST every night we will be locking chat as no anons (meaning no guests) as we cannot monitor that chatroom 24-7 we have work to do and our personal lives as well so it is not fair to always have it open to the spam. 

             The other decision we've made is with this website is to remove both embedded Calendly links as it is a route for trolling to happen when we take our jobs very, very seriously while having fun. Chris taught me that lingo actually recently, plus it was gathering up too much room on the website, so we just pitched the pages into the trash drop down menu and deleted it permanently from our website. So we've been very productive today, I am surprised he's starting to work again but it is nice to get back to some normalcy. Tomorrow's post I want to talk to you guys about is some of the games he's going to be playing and updating next week when he jumps back to blogs on Tuesday since it is Family Day Weekend here in Ontario so I will chat again @ 11 am EST tomorrow.

 

Sara

Chris is recording today!

            It is very excited to say Chris, our Executive Producer/Host of both of our podcasts is back to recording something new for tomorrow. He's feeling a ton better today and been up in his chair a bit more. Anyways tomorrow's make up show, he is going to be talking about always having an episode ready to go and I definitely agreed to always have an episode or so handy especially if you get sick like Chris did. 

         I am excited to hear this episode and Chris and I have spoken about this idea while he was ill and I co-heartily agreed and he admitted he doesn't know why he never thought of this idea. so once he's strong enough he will but that is a bit of a preview for you guys and he has a video announcement later.

Sara

We're sort of back at it!

           We've not been the best for updates lately and as Chris mentioned majority of the team been sick but I am better and I am sure Larry is better. Chris is working on his core strength of his body getting up moving around but this bug really wrecked havoc to his body so hes recovering from this. I feel for him because he seems to get the short end of the stick with the illnesses. 

        I rarely have spoke to him about ChrisBOnTheWeb Stuff but sounds like an episode is coming out today at some point whether it's at 1 pm EST or later we will see. I see no reason to push him anymore then he has to right now. It is about him healing and we all go through a period of healing when we are ill. Chris is planning to do the podcast for Wednesday for Entertainment Man Podcast in the afternoon around 3 pm EST. Enjoy the rest of your Monday.

Sara

Where have we been?

             So where the heck have we been all week? Majority of our team has been sick, Larry, Sara and myself. Larry (cold), Sara (flu) and me some bug in my stomach I don't remember the exact name. However same symptoms as I had with the the Nova Virus I had nearly 2 years ago. Been stuck in bed lately and I always am thinking about ChrisBOnTheWeb Media and why I didn't see this coming soon cause it hit me like a ton of rocks.

             This week, being ill and in bed a ton has taught me a lot of patience while I heal and get stronger and healthier. I also took the opportunities to catch up on shows and one of them on my radar after I am done with this blog and done in the studio is to actually watch some The Simpsons and never know it could spark up future episodes actually. I do not know my entire schedule the upcoming week and Sara will be working on that for Monday and I will hopefully be back blogging by Tuesday and gives me a few extra days to feel better but enjoy the rest of your weekend, enjoy the Super Bowl if you watch it and I will talk to you all during the week.

Weekly Updates [01-31-2025]

             Chris and I have been busy making sure everything is running smoothly. I know he's been promising Matilda Podcast and he will be getting to it eventually. Right now he has other priorities at the moment but what he's told me next week it is going to be going up on the Friday so a week from now. It is something he is working on this weekend as a priority. Also next week we are going to be start uploading OLDER episodes of Entertainment Man Podcast to the channel with this new schedule:

Sundays: 10 am & 3 pm EST; Mondays: 10 am; Tuesdays: 10 am & 3 pm EST; Wednesdays: 10 am EST; Thursdays: 10 am & 3 pm EST; Fridays: 10 am EST & Saturdays: 10 am & 3 pm EST. Days with new episodes we will only post up an old episode once, that's it. We are trying to make sure to upload just once a week if possible. The sooner the better so Entertainment Man Podcast can return back onto video in the very nearby future. The last update I have is Chris is indeed back as the CEO. He missed it so much and I was willing to step down and take over. He made my COO (Chief Operating Officer) to run the day to day operations of the company. We both agreed this will make us stronger with the operations of the team plus we have brought Billy back on as our new Community Director. So we've been making a bit of moves to strengthen us as a team.. Enjoy your weekend and I will chat with you next week.

Sara, Chief Operating Officer

Supermarket Simulator New Updates

               So far, I am enjoying the updates. However I am not too far in as I just re-started the game but I got to play around with it even with the old file with security guard and the theft alarm. To watch the security guard beat the crap out of thief is quite hilarious actually! I want to keep streaming this game just haven't had time to actually stream. This weekend I do plan on streaming on Twitch. I just need to reactivate the account again in order to do this move.

              But I like the updates and another one is the cleanliness of the store.  Always having to clean and my motto is a clean store is a happy store. I want to see how deep into the game I want to and there is several things I want to do to grow the store. I took the name I had from Grocery Store Sim which is now not being played thanks to the staff doing whatever they darn well please placing items in the wrong shelving units. However back to Supermarket Simulator, the first impressions were positive and look forward to playing it more on Twitch moving forward. That is the post for today, have a great weekend and talk to you all on Monday.

Chris

Let's Talk Podcasting!

             I know we are trying to get old episodes of Entertainment Man Podcast up so we can bring it back to video and there is no ETA on that. I honestly am not sure I want to bring back Entertainment Man Podcast to Video to be quite honest. I am happy with Audio and the views seem to be higher just audio yet a lot of you guys want video back but that decision isn't made quite yet. Once I am at the end of the line of episodes on video, then I will decide but it sounds like January 2026 for Entertainment Man Podcast going back to video. 

            This way The CBOTW Show can grow a bit more then we can grow both and I know we've had emails why not grow both and we are uploading old episodes first before new episodes go up. Like I said The CBOTW Show is posting up episodes with behind the scenes as well. But we are holding our own and very impressed The CBOTW Show is getting a ton of views and seems to be popular within our channel. We plan on continuing with the channel and not letting trolls get the better of us. Anyways that is the post for today and I will talk to you all tomorrow. 

Chris

ChrisBOnTheWeb.com on The Move Again....

              Yes! ChrisBOnTheWeb.com is back on the move yet again. We have been maneuvering everything around on the website and some of the pages have made no sense and the drop down menus have been changed and I am still not happy with the amount of items and it really cannot be helped honestly but it is there. We also maneuvered enough room for a chatroom here on our website. Yeah it's a bit hard to cram a lot into the one website but I wanted to level up the website a bit more and add it as a feature. 

             We are always tweaking things on the website and I believe we are in a good place now. Especially now that both our (TOU) Terms of Use & (FAQ) Frequently Asked Questions has been updated we are more then ready for the next step and that's getting old and new content out. I know we've not uploaded old stuff and we're sitting on a studio update. Too much happening all at once. But that is the blog post for today and I will talk to you all at 11 am EST for a second blog post as I'm making up for yesterday but talk to you all then!

Chris

1 Million Views!

               As you may have heard on our social media, our website has hit 1 Million views. Which is incredible. Took us just over 10 years to reach and probably take 10 more years to reach 2 Mill. However the views on our website been wild each and every day. The last year we have seen enormous growth on our website and it is very great to see the website and our community continues to grow and flourish each and every day. I think it was yesterday or Saturday we actually had 5k in a day which is bonkers.

          However, I am so proud even after I stepped down as CEO, the team continues on to strive forward and continue to grow this entire thing. I want to thank a lot of people: First my family for always having my back and being there and even when I stepped down as CEO and being involved still they still continue to support my endeavors. Next my team and I still consider everyone on the team as my team. Always will be. They have been there for me through the thick and thin of things no matter and even after Nov 14th with the changes. Finally our loyal fans of many, many years, you guys are the reason why we are still here today, always supporting us, reading our blogs, interacting on our chats, Social Medias, Groups, commenting on our YouTube Channel, Listen to our podcasts so with that I cannot thank you guys enough! Anyways that is my post for today and I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Weekly Updates [01-24-2025]

            I have changed over the name of the end of the week updates to Weekly Updates. Anyways, first thing I want to mention is Chris will NOT have Matilda up today on time but he hopes to get some of the videos he recorded for social media and YouTube up today. He will get it out next Friday as a bonus and promises to do better with the upload schedule for The CBOTW Show. Right now he's in the midst of editing Ghostwriter Podcasts they recorded yesterday in studio, 5 episodes to be exact that they did. Also Chris has been editing Entertainment Man Podcast for Monday so he has been working on lately. 

       I know we haven't been posting up the old episodes as we mentioned on our YouTube channel and it is next on our list things to do. First editing episodes that are recorded, then watching Matilda, recording the podcast and editing it. Also he has to prepare for an interview a week from now. Those are the updates, Chris may pop up this weekend on Twitch, basically some work casts and maybe a gaming stream but depends how far he is into recording the one podcast and editing but he would like to do a gaming stream to relax for once. I wish he would take some time off especially on Sundays but I have that funny feeling Chris will be casting for a good 6 hours tomorrow, working and chatting. We will see what he has planned out. I will chat with you all next week.

Sara, CEO of ChrisBOnTheWeb Media

We're Back on Track With Podcasts!

               I think we are officially back on the right track for the podcasts. I know two days of new episodes plus the older episodes. I realize it is a bit chaotic but seems like you guys are enjoying older episodes and newer episodes which is great. I know there is confusion with the YouTube Channel but promise to be done re-uploading. If I do a premiere with older episodes it's by accident. I need to watch what I'm doing when scheduling the posts. 

              I made a tweak in the schedule for the re-upload schedule and on actual show days we are not uploading the older episodes as we want to make sure it is the main focus on those days for the new episodes nothing else. It is more than fair for us however we are on track and getting things done when they need to be done and look forward to the coming weeks with shows we have planned out for you all. Anyways I wanted to give a bit of an update that we are certainly doing a ton better and back on the right track for shows for the time being and that is the post for today, enjoy your weekend and as always I will talk to you all on Monday!

Games I Want To Play!

                 Games I want to play in the way of newer releases I have about 2 to 3 on my list. A lot of them are simulators and other are something different. Here is my list:

Indiana Jones: I've seen the game play and really amazed by the quality of the Graphics and it is literally Harrison Ford's voice in the game. 

Storage Hunters: Seen this game on some gaming YouTube channels and really love it and looks so simple to do too so I want to give it a shot on my Twitch Streams. 

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024: Still have my stick for flying and has been on the shelf over the years and played the 2010 version way back 15 years ago and suddenly lost the disk so definitely want to try it out on this updated version. Looks really cool and TMart2 has done an amazing job on his YouTube Channel.

                 Anyways those are the games I want to play and there will be reviews coming soon so stay tuned for it and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Chris

Our Studio Computer is Finicky!

              My computer doesn't like it when I leave Audacity up on the desktop while playing a video games it disappears on the desktop and I wonder if it has to do anything with the gaming mouse as when I had the other mouse which is tucked away at the other desk. Anyways I had the episode recorded and was editing it on and off and I totally forgot to save the entire podcast so this morning I have to re-record the podcast for today. So looks like it will a later post yet again thanks to my own stupid mistakes. 

            I thought I taught myself that you save, save save your work and I need to remember that especially when it is a podcast as well. Especially with guests on the show and there are guests coming back on to the podcast coming, both new guests and reoccurring guests as well. I need to get myself together and figure out everything so this way I can record and edit the podcasts without having to re-record cause of this minor problem. I had this issue with my old computer at one time. However, hopefully by the time this goes up I have it recorded and edited and I can move on with Friday's and next Mondays. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you tomorrow.

Chris

Weaving Around Everything!

               With all this podcast craze going on in our network re-uploading the old episodes, recording current episodes, we are busy. I am trying to get everything uploaded and scheduled so I can focus on the current stuff and currently in 2022 for episodes. Please note there are episodes that were live that are no longer available and it's beyond my own stupidity but we will post what I have stored in my Drive that I plug into the computer to grab episodes from 2022 - 2024.

               So weaving around the podcast and running this blog 5 - 6 days a week, we're swamped but a good type of swamp actually. We're keeping busy. Today's episode may be a tad late and there is a reason is I needed to catch up on a few hours of sleep but I will get it out today and remember it is only Audio at this moment and I have mentioned this time and time again. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow for another blog post.

Chris

End of The Week Updates [01-17-2025]

           Now that things are settled down, first update is Chris is recording this morning both episodes for Entertainment Man Podcast and The CBOTW Show so be on the lookout this weekend for the episode to drop! Excited stuff. Monday is as scheduled. I want to thank you guys for the love and support you have given us, especially with Chris we have started to blow up with the YouTube Channel and I think a lot of it has to do with the Channel being listed right here on the website on the right hand side and also embedded on both Entertainment Man Podcast (Soon) and The CBOTW Show (Currently.) 

          Website has been worked on a bit more and we're working on a new page so you guys can get involved with The CBOTW Show moving forward! Yes, he's still going that route and he is working on the page and is work in progress at the moment. However knowing the boss man of podcasting will have it done pretty quickly. Right now we are playing catch up since the issues with The CBOTW Show, we have to catch up and get the podcasts out tomorrow or Sunday and Entertainment Man Podcast on Monday. Those are the updates I have and hopefully next week we will be a lot more smoother then it has been. Have a great weekend and talk next week. 

Sara

Proud of The Team.

         After a long battle with Podcasts.com, we are no longer using the platform whatsoever. We are officially with Spotify for Audio ONLY. So far it's been smooth transition and now we wait for the other episode to post. I know he's talked about this weekend to the team and that's fine and I know he will catch right back up. I feel he's very stressed out with the situation but I am proud of him for problem solving. 

         I am proud of him! He has shown so much growth as a content creator and always thinking outside the box or coming up with a quick solution for the problem and glad we are back up and running again! We can now move forward and work to get uploading the old Entertainment Man Podcast episodes and also the current ones too. That is everything I wanted to talk about, chat tomorrow.

Sara
