Some Updates On The Situation....

               The plan moving forward is here and Chris has finally started to come around. I know him very well and known him for years how he needed time to cool off. Honestly things are just fine as it is to be honest and he is getting the views on a regular basis and that is enough as he had over 1k in views last month. The other day he had over 500 views.... Cannot say he aint getting the views. So with the feed now down for good, the plan is to continue with the podcasts as normally scheduled and also the blog posts that you guys see on a daily basis he continues to make posts whether it is him or I but I know for a fact he is going to be returning tomorrow to blog posts and scheduled his posts on his white board so we know for a fact he is returning. The whole issue with the live feed it could of been all OBS that made it disconnect or the buffer circle. So he is on the right track and honestly I would of been mad too as he's gotten so much work on the page done through me and yes I was a little mad but understand why he made this decision. He's the boss and what he says goes. I respect his decisions and I told him it's not worth the stress. So you can expect moving forward what I said, blogs, podcasts, collabs they all will be happening. Now I am not 100% if him and Larry are going to be doing an Collab for the Anniversary or not. I heard rumors from Chris he tore up the notes for it. Maybe for the 15th Anniversary perhaps which is coming up very soon!

                Chris, well he is in good spirits now and feeling a bit better and I told him why didn't you vent on your story on both Facebook and Instagram. He's bottling it up again and it's not healthy to do that. I know he's a very loyal person especially when it comes to his content and ChrisBOnTheWeb and if it wasn't for Larry, he probably would have indeed left Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast and it would of been all over after Dino Thunder. Chris made a promise to keep it running after the little hiatus it's going on. That was what was on his mind all day yesterday. However he is laser focused today to get working on the next collab and get back into a rythm to be set for December's next recording session after this week's podcast. So this is the last post you will see from me till Sunday's weekly update. Enjoy your week and I will be speaking to you all on the weekend.

Chris Is Not Happy With Net Issues Continue To Be A Problem!

               Chris is not happy and refuses to make blog posts and no clue whatsoever if he will be posting at all this week or I will be covering for him all week. I will explain what's going on. Last night we were testing out the live studio feed and his internet giving him issues and he's already spoken to Rogers Help and they say they are going monitor it for 10 days and email him an update and last time they said that it never happened. Total lie and he's on the fence and doesn't want anything to do with Rogers and has considered another internet company if he finally is on his own. Long story short, he is been in a mood since yesterday and hasn't said a word to me and has even told Larry that he's OFFICIALLY cancelled recording this week which is delaying the podcast yet again. He's really not in any mood right now and if he don't answer please do not be offended. 

              I will be around on both Facebook Page and Twitter throughout the day if you have any questions or concerns to what's going on with him. Really worried about his well being and his mental health. I know for a fact his mental health has gone downhill and maybe a week away from blog posts is what he needs to get his head back in the game again. He's deleted all the chat accounts and I've already removed the live pages as both the actual live page and the Live--Beta Test pages as both are now gone from the website back end of the website. He was really excited for this feature and the fact you guys get to see what he is doing during the week but cause of the net issues he's really in a bad mood and not sure how long this will actually last. I now wonder what is going on with the collab and he's cancelled the anniversary collab and sounding like no podcast at all this week at all and production is back to a stand still again. I can see why this podcast is going on Hiatus as of the conclusion of Dino Thunder. I guess I will talk to you guys tomorrow unless he comes around and is in a better mood but if anything changes please do check the social media if things change. I am more then happy to post for him while he's stepping away to figure things out.

Weekly Updates for Chris & ChrisBOnTheWeb

              This has been a wild week for Chris and the team and he has gave me a few updates recently and ideas as well has been suggested as well. We have been busy with expanding on the website a little bit and we are excited to mention it on today's blog post. Anyways here are the updates:

Power Rangers Podcast:  With Wild Force complete, Larry and Chris are indeed going to be recording live this week and not sure when but they definitely have to record not just one but two podcasts as Chris recently remembered that the Anniversary under the ChrisBOnTheWeb brand and just hope we can end up squeezing in both but will find out tomorrow as he will have to remind Larry of this and may have to do an afternoon recording session if possible to get both done.

Collaboration Podcast: As I said Chris has planned an Anniversary Podcast for just the website only that is going up some point Saturday no time confirmed by him but sounding like he has hinted 1 or 2 pm EST it will be up. This will be on it's own dedicated page here on the website and he is excited to do something to honor this.

Website: Second last update for today, the website. Now you haven't see it yet but we are working on this brand new feature. The first time in a long time, Chris is going to start casting right from the home of his own website. He will be watching shows and what not and when he does watch it you will see him with headphones on at times. However he will be getting into details later this week as right now we are just working on the page and testing the feed out which has already been tested and it works. It is work in progress and he has to work on a couple of things to actually figure out with cameras in the studio and recording while live. Again more details is to come later this week.

Entertainment Man Podcast: Finally, I know he has been off schedule last week and this week he will have to definitely have to get back on track as even last night he slept in the evening and been up all night working and making sure he gets the editing done and ready for the weekend, however he is close to finished and should be ready for me to post up on the website.

             There are the updates and I made some tweaks to this post and I think it is a ton better then what I had which wasn't much of an update originally but gave it an addition as he has given me more information that I can tell you guys. He has been very secretive lately on what he has planned and he has kept us the Management Team in the loop on things and when he has information, him or I will be sure to mention it to you guys. I should have further developments by next Sunday to when the feed will go up Live for you guys. One last thing you will see the Live tab pop up during the week but will not be "clickable" till he is ready to launch the page entirely.

Who I Am and My Role With ChrisBOnTheWeb

           Hello my name is Joe and I am the Site Admin for ChrisBOnTheWeb which is part of the Management Team for Chris along with Tiala and Billy. I have some major roles when it comes to the website and his content. As he said yesterday, he is off this weekend from the blog as I requested to put up two posts this weekend, this one being the introduction to who I am and my role with ChrisBOnTheWeb or CBOTW Media as he calls it. I have been around with the website for the past 6 years on and off especially when he has issues with that other website provider he was with and I may have done a post. However that could of been Jim not me as Chris confirmed it while I was typing up the post it was Jim not me. Anyways, I was with Mark and Chris when he started building the Menu bar which was a lot of work and time and the 3 of us worked on it together to help Chris. He did indeed work on the menu and helped customize it and make sure it was to his liking. My roles here with him and the Management Team are:

• Website Administrator: In charge of the changes he requests me to make whether it is a page change or him asking me to add a page I will do it for him. This also includes changes to the CSS Code that has been added to the website for some of the things to work like the menu bar.

• Weekly Updates On The Blog: I am in charge of the weekly update blogs which gives him the opportunity to take a day off from blogging which now he is Monday - Saturdays for blog posts and we all need a day off from work and really been concerned that he isn't taking days off and his motivation isn't there and he hasn't been sleeping much lately during the night and been up most nights half the nights so him having the Sundays at the most off is the best for him. 

• Any Other Things He Needs: I have been known to help the boss man with other tedious tasks that need to be done such as Podcast notes as that is a long process especially with the Collaboration and that is how he gets it done. We work as a team as an cohesive unit. Also I have been known for fixing his tech issues with the main studio computer and also fixing his sound issues on his mixer and internet and much more.

             So those are the three main roles he has given me, not much, nothing to brag about but the jobs get done and my schedule with him right now is at this moment very clear but I am around in case something breaks on the website and he is unable to fix but the site is running smoothly at this point. I will see you on tomorrows post at the usual time, 11 am EST.

Reason Why Chat Was Removed Again Recently...

              Recently I tried to have had the chat back on the website and it didn't last long yet again due to the chatroom not connecting and it was Chatango that was the issue. I could of put another chatroom in it's place but I decided to not bother as it wasn't being used or the trolls that I had with disrespect towards my management team which is unacceptable. So chat is permanently gone I am no longer wanting to have a chatroom at this point. I honestly thought someone reported the chat and Chatango removed it but it was them having some issues with the chat servers went down so that was the issue and honestly it was becoming a headache to run a chat community and I think it was the right move. I even went to the Chatango version of the chatroom and it still didn't work. It is best to have less headaches then have a lot of headaches. What I am trying to say is if it isn't working it's just not worth it to be honest.

               To be honest the website alone has done fine without the chatroom and I know there should be another way to get the views but if it wasn't for the issues with Chatango, we would of kept it and it would of still been running and Joe probably be running the chat and on there on a regular basis but it is gone and nothing I can really do. I'm doing just finish with chats all together at this moment. Honestly there is other projects or things we could do within this website right now then run a chatroom. I know I made the right decision in the end and I am doing what's best for me and my website. So if you guys ask about a chatroom on this website, the answer will most definitely be a no at this moment. That is all I have to say and I will not be on tomorrow's post nor Sunday as I said in an announcement the other day, Joe is taking over the blog over the weekend. Tomorrow he will be introducing who he is and his role on my Management Team along with Tiala and Billy and Sunday the usual weekly update which he is taking over to give me a day of rest from a very busy week. I will speak to you guys on Monday, have a great weekend!

Rumors Going Around About Me and The Recent Hiatus Collab Podcast Announcement

               I know with the recent announcement of Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast going on Hiatus as of start of early next year due to our scheduling being wacky and non stop technical issues and yes I still am having problems and I will highlight some of our issues that we had in another blog post next week at some point and not sure when though but you will see it. Anyways, I have had emails from some of you guys that the reason there will not be any podcasts is because 1) We're waiting till June and 2) I am going to be on Big Brother Canada next year! Yeah, sure, for one I never auditioned this year. I admit I was going to but just had no time with the new podcast and Collaboration Podcasts and I wanted to audition. I know I have 15 days but with the state of COVID-19, I do not wanna risk myself getting the virus being in the house for 3 months. I know I'd be safe and production would take care of me but honestly it isn't worth it. I mean I can wait one more year unless that was an All-Stars season for BBCAN10. Plus I am one busy person constantly creating content for you guys and with this recent transition from my own Reality TV Recap Podcast Series to Personal, Business and Self Help Podcast.

              However, I give you guys credit, it is a very good cover-up why I would drop the podcasts while I am playing the Big Brother Canada game and it makes totally a lot of sense why a hiatus would be doable but I ensure you, I am not going on the show, not this season at least, I wanna make sure I continue to grow the podcast as it is heading into it's second season in January. Also the reason for this hiatus is to fix things with the collaboration podcast which again I will highlight on another post next week. It will be a long several months but I think it will be worth the hiatus while him and I catch up on notes and fix any tech issues. Anyways this made me laugh and you guys are putting ideas in the back of my mind when I end auditioning and getting onto the show down the road. Just have to make the time away from content and planning would have to go into that. Anyways I will see you in tomorrow's post.

My Motivation Hasn't Been All There Lately....

                   The last while, I am noticed that I haven't been motivated to work whatsoever as I have been dealing with depression and mental health being stuck in Isolation nearly 8 months now and it has been a struggle. I have been really trying to get the workload done and finished and I managed to finish it. I have to realize this, I have to put my priorities in order and I have been good to do that. With not being as motivated has put both Larry and I behind schedule with the Collaboration Podcast and it is my fault. honestly. I wasn't prioritizing myself properly. Today for example I know what I have to do is get the podcast recorded this morning for the weekend, edit and I am sure while I edit I will end up start the next collab podcast while waiting for the recording of the current one to happen. Anyways I need to remember to know when to stop with the workload and I need to stop at like 3 or 4 pm EST or even take breaks to help me get refocused and keep on the right track.

                    I know I haven't been overly active on Social much and lost tons of followers but I need to remember to make posts from time to time.  In the end my Mental Health is the most important thing for me to get under control first and that is why some days you don't see much in making many posts at this moment and I promise you guys I need to get posting a ton more during the day. I made a video post yesterday which is very rare I do anymore as I am just busy with the work. I need to be more on the ball with being active on Social Medias and I know when I am depressed like I have been, I tend to not say anything.  I should be a bit more open with you guys to be honest to how I am feeling and the fact I have been working non stop doesn't help with my depression nor the motivation of bringing out content especially on time like today which is extremely late coming out but that's OK we have lives to live. In the end I really need to buck down on social media posts more and start making a ton of posts as recently lost a ton of followers.
