Announcements For Chris B On The Web & ChrisBOnTheWeb.com

          As you guys know, we had a chat on the go, but the person, no names mentioned, well they got too busy and also I gave ideas but wasn't taken in consideration for the chat, so the chat project is no more and no plan to reconcile it at any point. I truly feel like having a chat will become a bit of a pain with the trolls and deal with drama again like I did back on the days of XAT.com but those days are done and I know there is a slim chance in re-building the community. My theory behind it is I can't trust anyone to help me mod as I was screwed over by my Moderator Staff in the past. So that is the first update, this entire chat/community chat plan is now done! No plans to build a community at this point. I am quite content on the way the website looks currently. 


            The next update, I had to postpone the collabs here in the studio with Jeff Livingstone until the studio is fixed up and hoping to fix it up by next year so I can have a nice looking studio, not what it looks like currently which is an appalling mess. I decided to not do a collab bring in guests for the 1 year anniversary as the studio needs some renovations to be done before I have anymore in here. 


              As for the 1 year and doing something but more from me, the boss man of Everything About Reality TV and it will actually be a preview podcast for Survivor Heroes, Healers and Hustlers season which is only 17 days away from it's premiere so the Friday the 22nd, the actual anniversary date will have a in depth look at this upcoming season and what is in stored for this season. I am not making a big deal of the podcast being On The Air for a year, I am glad its lasted this long and hope it will be around for years to come! 


             As you probably notice I put interviews, podcasts, collab podcasts under a new tab name called On Demand as you know its "On Demand" and easy to access and this way if another page is to be added I have enough room to add it to the website at anytime. 


            Now in the way of Everything About Reality TV being behind, I will be doing a major catch up tomorrow in getting the podcasts back on track so here is this weeks schedule:

Tuesday (Tuesday, September 12th, 2017): Recorded In The Morning, Released Big Brother 19 Week # 10 RECAP @ 6 pm EDT

Wednesday, September 13th, 2017: Amazing Race Canada 5, EP # 11 (Season Finale) Recording In The Morning, Released @ 8 pm EDT

Friday, September 15th, 2017: Big Brother 19 Week # 11- Recorded In The Morning, Released @ 8 pm EDT


             There is your schedule and I ensure you guys I will prevail and stay on schedule this week, this is a new week and I got a plan, hopefully this works out better. Have a great night!

My Vacation 2017- Part 2

 I know I am extremely late on blog posts lately catching up on both podcasts and blogs and planning to promote Chris B On The Web at an event but here is the last part of of my vacation, so I do apologize for the blog's delayed.

            

            So Day 3 of my holiday was probably one of the most hectic days for me on the vacation but was fun and a lot of exercise involved on this day. So after breakfast we went out to Bruce Peninsula National Park and trust me, had a heck of a time trying to find it, we literally passed by it and it seemed like we were heading home without our tent which was back at camp. Don't worry we ended up turning back around and very quickly and headed back north towards Tobermory. We were worried we weren't going to find it, so we planned on going back getting the stove to do lunch at Singing Sands Beach, however we managed to find the Bruce Peninsula Park. What was good about the park, as you know we just celebrated Canada's 150th Birthday this year and a day pass was free of charge so was so nice of the government to do that for us Canadians. However we had a time limit between 7 and 11 am to be at the Grotto and usually we do not spend a lot of time at the grotto, usually an hour at the most. The water at the Grotto, my body went into total shock and found it hard to breath at times swimming around. We found a frog hanging out on the rock I tried to pick it up but it hopped between some rocks. 



          After the Grotto and we went back to the car we went back to the camp to grab some lunch, followed by that we to Singing Sands Beach to hike and look for Rattlesnakes which we did not see any snakes compare to several years ago, probably since I was still in college at the time. So in total by the end of the hike we have accumulated 5 KM in total for our hike. Was very rewarding to hike that far in a day! Plus my weight maintained at 220 pounds and one of the reasons there hasn't been monthly updates on my weight loss progress as I have maintained at 220 or gone up a bit. So back to vacation talk on this blog, we went for a swim and was really more dunk your head under and get wet as the sand bars go from shallow to deep to shallow again, so it is hard to have an actual swim unless you keep on walking out further out which can take quite sometime.                                                                                  


          So the evening we went out to a local fish place and ordered out dinner, local white fish and chips which was sooo good. It had the skin which sealed in the flavor in the breaded fish. We sat down at the Ferry docks to eat and afterwards we sat over on the rock for a while and watched the Chi-Cheemaun come in and of course we went to town to watch it leave. The final day was the windiest day of them all and  the waves were huge as demonstrated in the picture on the right hand side of the post. I know that doesn't stop the ferry from running but the cruise boats were obviously cancelled and I took a picture of me next to one of the boats I took a cruise on when I was younger.

 So we watched the Chi-Cheemaun depart and we were on our way home with a stop at Blue Mountain for a round of mini golf and a Meathead Pizza, so it was a fun filled trip and it truly felt good to be home and its been hard to come back to all of this but slowly re-adjusting to things again. One last picture below is the mini golf course I played, it was quite a challenge too!

































Have a Great Night!

I'm Back From Vacation!

            After 4 days of being away, I am back home! I do refreshed and raring to go! Despite recent drama the day I return home from holidays an old friend from Blogtv.com decided to turn on me, but whatever I got plenty of friends. Only broadcasting friend that is left I have is Santiago at the moment.  Anyways I am now back and in this blog I am going to talk about the trip to the shortest extent as possible, however I am putting it into 2 parts, Day 1 & 2 today and Day 3 & 4 tomorrow to split things up as it is a lot of information to put out there in a blog post!

             I left bright and early on the Monday with church in the morning followed by breakfast at Tim Horton's. Then the fun began with travel for 6 hours or a bit more. Mind you I won't bore you with the details of the travel, mainly I wrote on my pad of paper with ideas in my mind, keeping track of what I did on the trip. Read a book on the War of 1812, so it was pretty much boring stuff I did, which is very uninteresting to you guys anyways. So we were officially on Manitoulin Island and close to the ferry boat. We went on the way to our campground for the night, had a very easy dinner, chicken and potatoes which is traditional dinner we have when we go year after year.  After dinner we were out to the beach and sat out on the beach, went for a walk, had a good time. 

             On Day 2, was a big day, we had breakfast, was the quickest one ever, we cleaned up and went for a walk on the board walk and some some murals in town. Then we packed up camp and drove on to South Baymouth with a stop at the marina nearby in Providence Bay. Once we got there, we went to a local art gallery and looked around, followed by lunch at the local restaurant, I had a triple Decker grilled cheese sandwich, small side of french fries. After that we went to the marina and the walk way and went out to the lighthouse for a peak and found a rock I decided to keep that reminded me of the Flower Pots on Flower Pot Island, which mind you I cannot find it now... I went up on a higher platform and was so gorgeous! Finally we went back to the car and drove onto the M.S. Chi-Cheemaun! Travel wise it was a tiny bit rough but I didn't really care it was rough, I like to rough so to speak, ha-ha! We arrived and we got a few things from the store as we needed milk and wieners (Hot Dogs) as we were planning on having it for lunch the very next day which will be in tomorrow's blog. After that we went to camp, setup for the next 30 - 37 hours camping in Tobermory. The evening, we went on a Sunset Cruise and was so much fun and the sunset itself was absolutely gorgeous! It was well worth taking a holiday away from the podcasts, blogs and websites. Finally in Saturday's blog I will be covering the last two days on my trip and it will be a lot more fun and activities going on.  I apologize for the latest of blogs recently, I will start blogging more, don't worry. 
 


















Have a great night!

I've decided to stay off social media throughout the 4 days I am currently away, however I will post up an update Wednesday evening and also when Thursday comes around and I am on my way home. This way I am in direct contact with you somewhat but again will not be posting up too updates whatsoever while I am away.  


               Finally you may be asking when is the podcasts & blogs coming out to make up for no blog posts and not podcasts on Wednesday and Friday? Well I am planning on making up for not being online for 4 days, by this tentative schedule:

Kars On King Event 2017 Event, Downtown!

           Yesterday I went to an amazing event that occurs in my downtown core of my home town each and every year on the last Friday of August, each and every year and its not just only in the downtown late afternoon on the Friday, it's down at the lake, however it does cost to go and see it down there, we usually chose to go to the Kars on King as it is a free event. 

            This year was a crazy year for the amount of cars they fit in a parking lot and on the main street and side streets, I didn't think they can fit that many in there but they did, I believe out of both my cell phone pictures and my camera which mind me the battery died towards the end as I was snapping so many pictures which is pretty crazy if you ask me. It was fun, ran into my former Staff David, his fiance, Kevin, an old friend who use to hang out with the gang at the table at the food court, was always wondering how he was doing all these years since I haven't seen him and of course someone tried to say hi but cause drama with me and the police were called which put me into a total mental break down but will not go into full on details or names will not be released either, but to try and talk to me months later after the events that took place, uh uh, not happening, not wanting anything to do with them as I cannot trust em.

               Enough of the drama portion but I had a great time, CKDO which is our local Oldies station here in town was doing a remote show there which is really cool to see. Also the amount of people at the event was insane, its become such a popular event each year which is good its a good publicity for them and you never know brings in more people each and every year. Restaurants were getting good business and it was so nice to see such a hustle and bustle of a downtown. I also got to meet a friend of my dad's from the airport who is a pilot as he had his old Corvette there so was great to meet him as well. For those who don't know the downtown was pretty much dead back in  the 90's and early 2000's until our Mayor was not re-elected and a new Mayor was in power. So this was truly a nice change to see such a busy downtown and maybe the downtown need more of these things. My dad and I bused it downtown so this was no worries to find a parking spot but however getting out of the event by bus was not easy whatsoever as traffic on the one street  which mind me is a one way street and the traffic was so horrendous and was late due to the traffic and a majority of the eastbound buses were re routed around where the Generals Hockey play so it was not the greatest. Finally I know it isn't much about the event, I tried my hardest to talk about it but was fun and to leave you on tonight's blog post with a few pictures from the event:






Have a Great Night!

Event Change Announcement for October 2017- No Autism Celebration

             Back over the weekend I had to make a tough decision with one of the events and as you know this year I have and been known for making some drastic changes with Chris B On The Web and no Justin leaving was just a conversation between him and I about what he can do to help the website and of course the conversation of him moving on in his life as he's been with me for 6 long years and I just couldn't come up with an idea what he could do and plus he's been so busy so it was both him and I decided for him to resign and I am so grateful for his time and efforts with the help even when I was still part of the YouTube community from 2006 - 2016, nearly 10 years on the platform. However he will be collaborating in a podcast in the New Year in a Off Season Podcast but that's not what this post is about.

               The reason for today's post of the day is because  I wanna make this special announcement and more importantly an important announcement as it was the most difficult choice I had to make but due to recent events, I need to pull myself away, from the Autism Celebration. This is more then likely a permanent thing, I need to move on from this event even though I really enjoyed going each and every year but like the saying goes "All Great Things, Must Come To An End" and this is the point of time I need to move on and do what's best for me and also Chris B On The Web. One of the major concerns especially for going to this event was spending the money for lamination and also photocopies, ink and it all added up over the last 2 months and drained my money quite drastically so the big issue is affording to do all of this photocopying and laminating and also getting the display board which is like 25 dollars and it all adds up in the end and this year has been hard money wise and it isn't easy to be spending tons of money on an event, probably more then likely I will be working on information over the next year and hopefully next year I'd attend but this year I am giving up my spot to someone else because of some of those reasons, I have another reason but rather not go into great detail or bring it up as I am not feeling comfortable talking about it at this moment and rather not make my own problems public on here. I may go back, I may end up not going back depends how I feel but I feel like my time with that event has come to an end. I am forever grateful for this opportunity and glad one of the Kerry's Place Staff getting me involved with the event for several years and it has opened up so many great ideas but you never know in the nearby future if I will make a return or not just this year is not a great year for me as money is very limited with the purchase of a new studio mic. Hoping next year to attend but it totally depends how things are for me. 



Have a great Wednesday!

My Favorite Trips I Like To Go In The USA

             So, today's blog off with me covering my favorite trips from both up here in the USA. This will be quite a lengthy post but going to try and keep it short and sweet. I will split the two 

              Let's start with the United States of America, the good old US of A. I have been to many places in the States I would visit again too in the near future and my dad doesn't know this but next year I would like to go back to Lake Placid once again and I've been there before and would go back. Few things I loved was the Arena where the Olympics were and I remember the arena very well. Also I would like to go back up on White Face Mountain which I sort of remember going up there but hard to remember that far back what I saw up on the mountain. Also Lake Placid was where the 1980 Winter Olympics were. 

               Next is Chicago, loved visiting Chicago, going to Wrigley Field, eating deep dish pizza which is a well known thing in Chicago. Got to ride the double decker tours, the single older tour buses, cruise tour along the river there seeing all the different buildings within the city of Chiago, got to see Trump Tower Chicago which Bill the first winner of the Apprentice got to chose as a job within the organization. Also got to see Solider Field where the Bears NFL team plays, got to see the waterfront as well. I would go back and see more of Chicago, see the Museum of Natural History, find where the Blackhawks hockey and Bulls basketball team plays. See what I haven't yet to see in the city of Chicago aka the Windy City.  On the side of this paragraph is an image of Wrigley Field.

               The next Vacation I went to was in the same line as the Chicago visit is Minnesota and the reason why is because I have cousins down in Minneapolis. One thing I didn't know was the TV show Mary Tyler Moore was suppose to be filmed in but I believe it wasn't but the intro was done in Minneapolis. I would like to ride the  streetcar but it's a long train and you can walk right through it. Toronto has those kind of streetcars. Also of course I'd see another Twins game, hoping they can start being a good team again and they are getting better as they are winning again and even at home but the game was so much fun and it was a different atmosphere in a open stadium from the dome stadium out in Toronto so the experience was fun! Plus I got to meet the organist and I got a picture taken which is this picture:






















I added the Mary Tyler Moore statue as well. There are too many pictures of my trip to Chicago/Minnesota but added 3 of them one in Chicago, two in Chicago and I am merely excited to eventually visit both cities again in the future. In conclusion of this blog post today I would like to say stay tuned for the Canada Vacation Spots I have been to on Wednesday and of course I will add more pictures to that post as well. Finally I will be making a post as more of an announcement in a few days from now as I have made a decision on an event I was suppose to go to has changed.




Have a great day!
