Everything About Reality TV- Giving Back To The Fans!

             With this being our 13th season, we are actually bringing on fans of the podcast for any of the shows that were covering, however I think we are mainly bringing on fans for Big Brother Canada and got a couple of requests to be on the podcasts already! We are excited to bring on more guests onto the podcast and grow this podcast even further and this week's episode is a bit rocky due to some technical issues at the start but come the following week, I am going to start improving the podcast as the weeks move on. This is our 13th season, it's go big or go home so to speak! That is what we are doing! We are proud of what we have built but it hasn't moved in much of the subs so we need to continue to grow. Now the platforms itself it's grown on many different platforms honestly, just we need to get more listeners and we will and doing very well but again don't forget we have been doing this for almost 5 years but also we have to remember starting a podcast from scratch on Audio ONLY takes time and effort. I am going to be doing a bit of changes in the next week or so with notes, the first episode there was a ton to cover technically so I want to take things one thing at a time.


              We are looking for guests to be on the podcast and THIS is YOUR Chance to get involved with the podcast! Calling all Big Brother Canada Fans, you would like a chance to recap Big Brother Canada podcast with us? Well you can email Myself or Jasmine at eartvpod@gmail.com and we will put you name down on the list! There is limited spots, 11 spots not including the finale as we have that already locked up with a guest or guests so to speak. Please reach out if you are interested and we will be put you down. The deadline for this, well actually as the weeks go on we will add in your name. I do have to talk to my Producer about this and what I am thinking of doing is actually placing a list to who is in line. I think the first week it will be just me on the podcast then bring on guests the following week. This was all Jasmine's idea and I totally agree with the idea and it is truly going to be an honor talking to you guys over the season. Bring on BBCAN8!!!!!!!!!

The CBOTW Show is Cancelled For Good...

            I really have some bad news and this wasn't the post that I was suppose to do technically but this comes first before the other post that I want to do tomorrow and the plan for the weight loss isn't happening right now as so much has happened. Anyways the bad news is that I have cancelled The CBOTW Show due to some things that has gone on behind the scenes which I will talk about publicly as it is a private matter. However you guys deserve the truth why no 24 Hours to Hell and Back Recap yesterday and what about the Power Rangers Podcast future? I will get into all those details in this post. The podcast itself is retired all together and it will never come back. I am making it clear to you guys that it is done and Everything About Reality TV Podcast is my main concern right now and not planning to work on anything else. Now Power Rangers Podcast as you know we are currently without a home so this brings back the idea of the collaboration podcast... Which we all know worked and less stress on us and me especially. So we will be bringing it back and the collaboration page will be popping back in the coming days but right now the blog and Everything About Reality TV have my attention right now as they need to be kept up to speed on. 


              Either way I should of not brought it back and should of stuck to the Collaboration Podcast as it has worked for us before and it will work despite the small lag of seeing the views on the website but hey this weekend were gonna make it up for you guys one way or another this weekend and make things right again. I think I very much happy with the Staff I have right now, Billy, Jasmine and Larry, so basically the 4 of us, I know this is definitely a solid 4 core group and I think this is what I wanna do is stick to this core group moving forward and try and grow from there. Yes this is bad news that one podcast is done and already gone ahead and cancelled the feeds across and thankfully we're not on very many platforms at the moment so this is good and not much work to do actually. In the end, I want to focus primarily on Everything About Reality TV Podcast and the collaboration, nothing else at the moment, taking one project at a time not a pile but yes I did hint something with Billy down the road but that will be for him and I to announce in the very nearby future.

Moving Back To The Corner for My Studio (Throwback Thursday Story)

                So it has been a little over a week, about a week and a half now that I have been back in my space in the corner which mind you its been weird feeling for the past week in the space being surrounded by the 2 boom arms and mics again and just an different setup overall I am just not use to it honestly. It does have that cosey feel to  it and love it. Since moving back, I have been tweaking the mics and setting things up. I actually twist tied the mic wired together, so I do not have all this wired slack behind the desk. Actually it was Tuesday when I moved everything back, I had to get the desk down first as that was the first priority was the rug which is 6 x 8 or 6 x 10 but its pretty good size really and it covers up the side desk along with the drawers too so it covers up a good size. Then we put in the size desk to the side then followed by the main desk which had to be lifted over the rug then setup my new drawers and go through all my stuff and put it in there, paper, Christmas lights, microphone stuff, etc. Finally I put up the 2 stackables that is taped so it wouldn't move.


              That is besides the point really and this throwback Thursday story has really derailed itself. Either way I am really enjoying being in the studio and now I can enjoy the studio and utilize it since it has been done in my area and actually sit down and record podcasts with my team or even alumni for example and this weekend, I will be sitting down with Larry to record a podcast for The CBOTW Show as we are very much overdue to record a Power Rangers Podcast. Honestly I have said it once and I will say again it is long coming for us to start recording and it has been a long wait, 8 months to be exact and it is about time that we get back to normal around here. However with the setup complete minus the ceiling and shelves, but I can still record and what not one way or another. So next week I will have an announcement when the next one is out and released to the feeds.

Been Taking It Easy This Week!

             As you guys have noticed, I have been taking it easy recently and as you know I have been busy with working on the Power Rangers Podcast a lot, long day and overnight shifts of finishing up the notes for this weekend. Honestly I can into so much details that we were planning on recording the weekend of the Super Bowl but I was still on the other desk at the time. However it is done as you know and this week, I have done absolutely nothing at all minus the blog posts every morning for Noon Eastern and the podcast which is out tomorrow evening 9 pm EST and posting up Steven's podcast at 6 pm EST but besides that I am just doing nothing at all. I have been playing ton of video games, The Sims 4 fooling about with the files I have made, watching the Sims get suspended from University which is a different story for another day. Anyways I have also been working on a project on Minecraft building my own version of the Big Brother Canada House and it is work in progress as I am even building the actual house in a studio warehouse too so it is a massive building and will take me a long time to build but right now I have the time to work on it as I do not start working on Time Force until next week so right now I can enjoy the time off and enjoy my fruits of my labor? Maybe that makes absolutely no sense really and I am pre-writing this before as by the time you guys see this, I am on the road to Eric's for the night as I am watching the Survivor Premiere at his place.


                I have done a bit of work around the site but nothing else from fixing the schedule page to the email system that we use, we have had a couple of issues from our end as we kept on getting locked out of the email, so we have switched from Yahoo to Outlook to now Gmail which Gmail will work a ton better so I have made the switches and updated the addresses and if you have an issue please do not hesitate to contact us about this as we do have a team now and always active answering your questions and concerns or technical issues about it. Either way if it isn't me that answers, it will be one of my staff on Facebook or E-Mail while I am away for the next 24 hours before I get back home to record the podcast. Podcast will be the number 1 priority when I get back then I can do whatever I want really want.

Why Did The Collab Podcast Page Went Away?

               As you know the collaboration podcast went away recently and there is a reason as an idea came to me, yes an idea to me and with Steven and I doing that one collaboration which is now part of The CBOTW Show Podcast that is where this idea came to me putting Steven as the Exec Producer as he is going to be running things for the most part and I trust him enough. As you know hes covering Masterchef, Masterchef Junior, Gordon Ramsey's 24 Hours To Hell and Back and Hell's Kitchen and of course the addition of Power Rangers Podcast in the mix, that is one of the reasons I decided to do this endeavor and I think it is a great idea and never know this could be something that I could be doing for many years now, new shows and old even if Everything About Reality TV Podcast stops at anytime, I certainly have something to fall back on and honestly just doing collabs here and there it won't be much to do in the long run and it would be pretty quiet so this is definitely opportunity not just knocking but banging the door right down and I cannot take away this opportunity. So if you understand where I am coming from with this post, this sets things up for me for the future. 


                So I did all of this for a certain reason but mind you nothing is changing, Power Rangers Podcast is here to stay and we got ton of content on that podcast. One other thing I had some technical issues with the player catching the views as it updates every 7 - 10 days which it never did before and honestly people wasn't listening in honestly so this is where this entire idea for The CBOTW Show came into play. Honestly I think the more platforms that we are on the better we get more listens and fans all together. I have so many more opportunities with the podcasts being on one dedicated feed and I honestly think Steven can do this running the podcast as the Exec Producer as I cannot run two of them so that is why he is named the Executive Producer with me still named as the Founder as I Originally started this podcast 2 years ago almost. I think in the end this is the right decision to make and I am just happier with the plan moving forward and hope this explains a bit why I made this move and I kind of figured Everything About Reality TV won't be around forever as shows will end at some point but yes new shows will come out but least this brand new idea, I have options now and that is what matters.

Contact Page Has Been Updated!

           The contact page on the website here has indeed been updated. It was time for a long overhaul of the page. Now I used tables which you cannot see the lines due to the theme of the website at the moment but the tables are what I believe invisible as you cannot see em but gives it that cool effect and honestly it does a heck of a lot for the site too as it gives me the opportunity to goof around with the way the site looks and I honestly really cool and if you haven't seen it I did put a screenshot on the right hand side but you can check it out on https://www.chrisbontheweb.com/p/contact.html especially if you have to contact one of the podcasts. Honestly you can see that there is 3 sections that we have broken down the contact page into 3 different things:

Website and Blog: Main contact for the website or blog. Mainly I will be the one that answers that email as I am the Administrator to the website and run everything.

Everything About Reality TV Podcast: To Answer any questions related to the podcast and if you want to come on as a guest especially this season as we are about giving back to the fans but will get into that later on in the week about this. The ones that mainly will answer this is myself and Jasmine who is a producer on the podcast. I think I will get Jasmine to answer the emails for the most part but if they can't then I will be the one to answer it.

The CBOTW Show: The newest of the podcasts on our list; as you guys know, myself and Larry and not involved too much right now as Everything About Reality TV Podcast, so this will be to answer any questions, or concerns towards this podcast. The main person and I will be around if he needs he help that is Steven will be the main one to answer any emails about the podcast.


               So with saying that, the contact page is updated and excited were a team once again and any comments or concerns you can direct it to me or leave a comment but there is one other project that is planning to start but once I have confirmation then I will be adding them to the list for contacts as well. Again got any questions for us do not hesitate to get in touch as we would love to hear from you guys!

Power Rangers Podcast Ready To Go!

             Due to Chris being unavailable today for unforseen circumstances, I am going to write the post for him as he has quite the team here at CBOTW HQ and around the world too as well. As of yesterday morning, he has officially completed the notes and boy I tell you it is a doosey. I can say he's written 44 pages of notes but Chris and Larry have done that before and I am sure when it comes to the guys recording a week today, they will give you a good long good old podcast. They are known for that and enjoy the longer episodes that they record for you guys. So Larry and Chris are going to be meeting up early in the AM, not like 7 or 8 am but little after 9 am over at his end and going to get going on recording bright and early. The one thing Chris has mentioned to us and the entire team behind Chris B On The Web is minus Larry who doesn't know about this yet but will in time and that is the podcast is under The CBOTW Show after a 2 Year Hiatus from the podcast being active and operating. Chris will be talking to Larry this week about it and that he has placed the podcast under that. However he will explain on Wednesday why the Collab Page went away on the Wednesday post. 


                The Podcast is a little less then a week away and we're all excited to show you guys what we have been working on in the past several months and on behalf we give our apologies for the lateness of this podcast and as he has said in the past the two of them are planning to bring out 4 more episodes with a total of 6 this year and if all goes well, never know the two boys may do more episodes per year but they try and keep to the twice a year thing if possible. I know Chris is not scheduled to start the next phase which is Power Rangers Time Force and Power Rangers Wild Force this week as he is taking time for himself as he has worked hours and hours night and day on the notes and he is probably the most dedicated person with that podcast ever, both of them are.
