Blog Viewership and Updates

                 I know the blogs were popping at one time and now I feel like their starting to slip in the viewership and as you know Amy popped on to the ChrisBOnTheWeb.com blog to announce a couple things with the schedule changes. I practically pushed this post and swamped out a few other things this week so it can fit. The viewership I am not happy with the viewership and I promote the blog and sometimes I wonder who reads it and I have a statcounter that's actually hidden from you guys and I can see the traffic to site and it isn't too good and it is frustrating to be honest. I had some thoughts of just stopping regular posts and going to sporadic posts from time to time when I have something to update and that day will end up coming eventually but right now I am focusing on the 5 days a week. I know I will be a burst of inspiration will come eventually. 

                  Now one thing she didn't mention is she is more a temporary host for Big Brother Canada and Big Brother US unless we cannot find anyone but for right now she is there for both this season of Big Brother Canada and the US season. Will be working by mid May to find a permanent host for both the US and Canada moving forward so this isn't overwhelming for her as I know Survivor is more her thing and I understand that and someone will wanna host I know it'll happen and she doesn't know this but I plan on starting to find someone the week after Big Brother Canada ends and it will be out there. Yes she mentioned Amazing Race as I am planning to bring it back to the podcast, but still minor detail as I am working on the form and getting the next step ready. Also I will be popping up on older Seasons that Amy covers as she will be picking and choosing what she wants to do and already has my list so stay tuned you may see me pop up on the channel randomly. That is my post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow.

End of The Week Updates [03-05-2022]

                 Another week has gone by and so much has happened this week it's so unbearable but I will try to cover as much as I can on the updates. 

Website: About, Team, Schedule, Contact has been updated to reflect the brand new and permanent changes to this ERA of ChrisBOnTheWeb. Also On Demand was down for a bit till I decided what I wanted to do it but I put it back up on the website and only home to the Archives at this moment. Only page that needs updating at this moment is Power Rangers Collab Podcast page which I need to do some intro work on all of them and an update will be made end of next week.  Adding Amy's new solo podcast which I will address shortly but sites been revamped bigger and better then it was. It was long overdue! Also Team page is now called "Staff."

Entertainment Man Podcast: With all the changes I continue to record and post up shows regardless and make time for this podcast as the show must go one regardless. I finished up editing my podcast with Reynaldo and big thank you to him for wanting a copy of the podcast to post up to his website. It will help grow my listenership. 

Power Rangers Collab: Now back to the original name since January 2019, I am keeping this name on a more permanent basis. I do not plan on making changes to the podcast by placing it in another podcast, I am leaving it exclusively to ChrisBOnTheWeb.com. As for Samurai that is now on hold until intros are done and finished which now this podcast is on a tempoary hiatus till it is fully finished. No ETA to when it will return. 

The After Show With Amy: I managed to rescue The CBOTW Show from the cold shallow hole it was thrown into thanks to my doing along with Entertainment Man Podcast which is still there. The channel was renamed The After Show With Amy F and an Audio ONLY Feed was made for her. Also main page was created for her and will be active soon! Announcement is coming soon from her when it will be posted up for the Cast assessment but I can say this she will be pre-recording due to net issues right now hopefully it can be fixed at a later date. 

                That is the end of the week update and sorry for no blogs majority of the week but hope you enjoyed the surprise blog yesterday. We've been busy making changes and revamping the website and trying to set things up for a more permanent basis. Either way blog posts return in 2 days (Monday) on it's normal 5 days a week schedule so stay tuned for the post Monday, enjoy the rest of your weekend I will talk to you all Monday.

Surprise Blog Post!

              Surprise! I decided to do a surprise post as I am just too excited to say I am back and things are on the rise for ChrisBOnTheWeb! I know I have been radio silent all week but making update posts when I can and I have to thank Savannah for keeping those who are in the ChrisBOnTheWeb Facebook Group Community as there has already been changes to the website here and I will talk about that on Saturday. I have a string of posts tomorrow and Saturday with Sunday being the only day off from posting as that is the normal Entertainment Man Podcast post. 

              As I said this morning the spam commenting has to STOP honestly. I am getting more and more frustrated with the spam comments here on the website like seriously?! I am at a point I need to start reporting these spam comments cause it has become now more frequent and friendly reminder this  website is completely english and it is hard to understand but either way I appreciate the comments but there is no need to spam the same thing over and over again. It does get annoying after a while and I see every comment and reply to every comment that you guys put on here on the blog.  This is the second week in a row that this has happened and honestly please do not spam. There is no need for the spam, like I said I read every comment and when my phone goes off and it's from the site I know that it is a comment. Just a friendly reminder there is no spam and it is on my site terms of use (TOU) and any spam will be removed and flagged and reported as spam. I have put Moderation to always moderate the comments and this is to stop these spammers and if worse comes to worst I will set comments where you have to login to comment.  That is my post for today, it is good to be back in the blogging seat again and I will talk to you all tomorrow!

End of The Week Updates [02-21-2022]

                     Another week has come to an end and here are some updates for this week as it has been another chaotic and crazy week:

Staff Changes and Additional Help: Larry is just a Co-Host, with the ongoing stress between us, I felt it was best that he retains just the Co-Host role for right now. He is still part of Power Rangers Podcast as I think that is what is best for him to focus on this podcast and not have to deal with decisions. Right now all the decisions are all up to me but I will consult Larry and Amy if I need to. You also notice that Brianna has now joined up the team and she is very familar with ChrisBOnTheWeb as her sister Charlotte was with us last year. So her role is the Community Manager so she will help with answering questions within the community.

Website: I have added in the upcoming schedule for the month of March as there is more podcasts coming and just hope this will not overwhelm me whatsoever and it shouldn't really if I follow the guidelines i gave not just myself but the team as well.

The CBOTW Show: Got things rolling for Cast Assessments for both Amy's Survivor 42 and also my BBCAN10 Cast assessment which will be live next week. So it begins what will be a busy next few months and we are getting prepare for what will be a hectic with great content coming out. I made a mistake when it came to promising March 10th with the podcast with Larry and I but we can do it when it is done and finished. There is no set time or schedule really as it is not in our contract with each other.

Entertainment Man Podcast: This week's episode to give you guys the heads up that it is a topic this week as I have decided to take a break and there hasn't been an interview request this week so this means I am just got a topic to talk about and it is about Transitrioning back into YouTube which is a great topic as you know I have been working around the clock with Amy and Larry on The CBOTW Show YouTube Channel. 

                      This is the updates for the week and I will update you guys with anymore information next week once we have it and have a wonderful weekend and I will talk to you all on Monday for another blog post.

The CBOTW Show-- Made Some Wrong Decisions

                  Without clearly thinking things through, I made decisions without thinking things clearly through. That is why Amy and I did a podcast to kind of clear the air on things and get things straightened out for the upcoming return on this podcast. We are still very much learning what works and what isn't going to work and I have been feeling overwhelmed with the podcast and getting things under way. One thing is I didn't do any research on shows being recapped on YouTube and that was one of the issues so hence one of the shows was moved to Audio ONLY and will be on Audio ONLY and you have to go and listen to our recent podcast: Video (YouTube) or Audio ONLY which are both hyperlinked here on the blog. There shouldn't be room for errors like for goodness sake I have taken down the trailer twice and now I have to make sure it is all true facts as we do not wanna get taken down for spam and deceptive practices especially on YouTube and again we did a podcast. 

                   Yes we have considered that we can take down the podcast as we are falsely advertising things but reason we did that extra podcast is to correct our mistakes. Yeah we may remove the podcast we did previously but that will be up to Amy and I if we take it down but  we might not, I've not been advised with it. Also between Larry and I there has been frustrations between the two of us with the way of tech issues but who said it was going to be easy especially during a pandemic and it hasn't been easy. Transitioning from in studio to Skype hasn't been easy on us. I know Larry, Amy and myself are looking forward to actually do podcasts in studio and it will happen in due time. Moving forward we need to make the right decisions and there should be a concrete plan when it comes to deciding things. That is my post for today and I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Mamma Mia On Stage Review

                   Mamma Mia which is still on stage all around the world, it was a good show and I was very, very young and I remember the entire day I went to the good old Spaghetti Factory which is still even open during this pandemic but that's besides the point. Great food and honestly I should do a review on it to be quite honest and it is on my list for next week as I am running out of blog post ideas at this point. Anyways after we ate we went to the Royal Alexandra Theater off of King Street for Mamma Mia. Now at this point, I wasn't familar with the band, ABBA or who it was. As the musical went on, I started to dig the music and felt like it was a very dancable kind of music especially Mamma Mia and Dancing Queen which are two of my favorite songs from the band and I know there are other songs that I quite enjoy. I remember we were in the first 

                   It was a great show, I know at the end I got up started to dance to the songs Mamma Mia, Dancing Queen and Waterloo. I give this show out 20 out 20 cause it was such an amazing show and I enjoyed it. I just wish it'd come back to the stage cause I would go see it for a second time around. Was a great show and worth missing half day of school as we didn't get back till late. I could of even missed an entire day of school too cause I slept in so late but that was 21 - 22 years ago when I saw the show live on stage. I hope you guys enjoyed this review and I know I have other review in the back of my mind that I saw on stage which was awesome but that is for another day and another time, I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Entertainment Man Podcast 2 Year Anniversary & 100th Episode Plans

                   With Entertainment Man Podcast closing in on it's 100th episode of the podcast which took 2 short years to break there has been questions asked if I have any plans to do something special for this episode of the podcast? Well yes I do an already eyeing some ideas to even do a bit of a clip show with memorable moments and I have already started to clip the podcasts from the past episodes in the last almost 2 years as March 8th will be the 2 year anniversary of this podcast and yes I will doing a bonus episode for the 2 year anniversary as well and it won't be much for a podcast, nothing really special planned as it is only 2 years on the air and I do not want to really make overly a big deal about it being 2 years but technically it is a big deal for it to last this long. 

                 Back to the 100th episode part of this podcast-- I plan on actually going through episodes and I gotta make sure it isn't overly too long of a podcast, the usual maybe a tiny bit extended episode of the podcast depending how much I have planned in the back of my mind and I cannot overdo the number of clips and the clips would have to be short no more then 30 seconds to a minute. Whatever I pick I have to make sure it doesn't go over 45 minutes, no more then an hour in a way of a podcast so I have to make sure it is not over done when I pick and I also have to remember that I cannot have no less then 25 mins as that is  it but it will be over 25 minutes don't worry. Anyways that is today's post and I will talk to you all on tomorrow's blog post!
