Everything About Reality TV Scheduling Update

                  Here is an update with the scheduling for the podcast and I have been keeping up to date with the scheduling. Anyways currently we are on Thursdays @ 9 pm EST for Survivor Winners At War up to May 14th when we will be finishing up this season and it will be an emotional so long for me as I am passing the torch for Survivor Recaps to Billy who is taking it over so I am proud to say I am willingly passing the podcast to my friend. So we have less then a month left then we move into Amazing Race 32 on May 20th which technically will be in the slot and time as Survivor was. Amazing Race 32 will be up at 9 pm EST Thursdays and excited to be continuing this current season, our 13th season of the Podcast. Now for the preview podcast it will be the weekend of the 16th/17th I will be doing the Cast assessment podcast for you guys and have it up for you guys on the weekend before the season actually begins. 


                So that is as far as we were able to go at this moment as I do not have anymore news to tell you regarding the summer but again I've said this before and I will remind you guys that I will be keeping you up to speed on things as I got more information and the fact my team and I are in keeping up on things and we are actually planning ahead of ourselves in case there is no Big Brother 22 or Amazing Race Canada, we already got an idea in the back of our minds to stall for time. These are tough times and all we can do is try and come up with ideas to keep the podcast going even if it is an Off Season Podcast for the time being and especially if we try and record every week to every 2nd week. Anyways that is the schedule for now and at least you guys are getting some kind of podcast one way or another but again we will keep you guys up to date as much as we can.

I Wanna Do More Instagram and Facebook Chats With You Guys!

                      So recently about 2 days ago I sat down at my desk and did a  FB Live for another 30 minutes with you guys and it was honestly fun! I know it wasn't much of a turnout but had a bunch of people pop in. One of my Instagram followers and 2 from the Fan Page but I have to say, thank-you for tuning in. I honestly need to do it in the evenings now I think and I honestly think people would tune in more so that is definitely something to think about moving forward. I think it will be a great idea to connect with you guys and definitely an idea and gives me something to do honestly as these days I am bored out of my mind at times but busy with CBOTW stuff. I can say this we had a great conversation and a lot of sports stuff and I actually linked  a sports links in there. Maybe for one of them, I will do a Q & A edition and let you guys ask questions or could even be a video in it's entirity and been thinking about doing one with Larry.


                      Anyways, I am off topic like usual but I like the fact this is on a Wednesday but again, timing I think wasn't right actually. However the response to it especially on FB was crazy! the numbers for that live broadcast was really high almost 30 people have seen it and I haven't actually looked at it since the broadcast but was overwhelming to see the number of views and actually our like count went up on the page so maybe this is truly a sign to start doing something like this more often. With that I want to thank-you all again for tuning in the other day and I will let you guys know when I wanna do another one and hopefully next week I will get another one and I plan on doing it in the evening this time around maybe around 6 pm EST.

Everything About Reality TV YouTube Channel Is Coming Along Nicely!

                    So I want to provide you guys with some updates regarding the rumors of Everything About Reality TV Podcast on YouTube as you know there was rumors speculating we were indeed to return to the platform after a 4 year Hiatus. It has been a crazy few days but anyways here are the updates:

1) We have added the banner which had to be recreated and its another story for another time. But it looks really sharp and I cannot wait to start promoting it but right now I am waiting for the right time to bring it up as we are currently in mid season for Survivor and not the right time to promote it.

2) Also I have been streaming a bit here and there to test it and Billy who is on Staff of the podcast has seen it and even the Podcast's Co-Founder has noticed that it went live.

3) I still gotta work on the channel trailer and I need to get that last element done before we  are ready to start doing podcasts live.


                      There is still work to be done and I am sure a lot of questions about the channel what is going to be Video and Audio ONLY and to what will be Audio ONLY, who is doing what and I can answer that right here, right now:

Video and Audio ONLY: 

- Survivor (Billy, as of Survivor 41)
-Big Brother (Reality Teas aka Chris)
- Big Brother Canada (Chris, Me)

Audio ONLY:

Amazing Race (Chris, Me)
Amazing  Race Canada (Chris, Me)

Who Got Me Into The Three Stooges and Laurel and Hardy?

               Now I really haven't talked about it and yes I have spoken about the 2 old shows in the past. When I first started to watch this show I had no clue who they were but yet yes I found them hilarious and still find them very hilarious to this day and been watching it on and off recently to keep my mind busy. Anyways it was my aunts who have passed on but I still watch the show and remember the nights I was at their place being taken care of as my parents went out and yes this is referring to when I was still in elem entry school and even my early high school days as well. I found Laurel and Hardy pretty funny and still to this day Sons of The Desert is one of faves and for The Three Stooges, "Plumbing We Will Go" and "Disorder In The Court" are my faves for that show. Either way I am thankful for my aunts introducing me to the show and enjoy em still even now. 


               I know this post isn't long and I am finding it hard to write as I have had a long day and maybe it is just time for me to put on a Stooges and lay back and enjoy the evening. I have been working all day when I am technically suppose to be off today. Anyways that is my story time with Chris and again I'm sorry this is a very brief but short post today, however it is still a post one way or another and because of my aunts introducing me to both the Stooges and Laurel and Hardy, I even got to see the 3 Stooges movie which I do not even think my aunt Maria got to see as she was dealing with Dementia at the time but I could of brought it over. I got a bunch of DVD's of hers from the Stooges and Laurel and Hardy that was their or back in the day VHS's that I wanna get the series on DVD now. Also I started to watch and own a ton more Laurel and Hardy and The Three Stooges so my collection of those are really piling up but that's OK, it keeps me entertained!

Favorite Soups To Eat!

            I realize this could be a boring post but going to try and make it as entertaining as I can. In today's post I want to talk about soups. I love my soups, especially on a cold day. I have so many favorites personally and it will be utterly impossible to go through em all. Anyways here is my list of favorite soups:

1) Chicken Noodle- Whether it is the Lipton kind of even the Campbells, I love it and makes things all better especially when I am sick (which I am not insinuating I am) but I love it and always been a favorite of mine since I was a kid.

2) Matzo Ball Soup- Now last time I had this was ages ago, I was a kid still at the time. This was at Shopsy's in Toronto which not many or any left but I did look it up one in Toronto near Queen so I am going to definitely go back there when this is all over with this Pandemic. 

3) Potato and Leek Soup- Talk about Hearty soups and I really love Leek Soup it is just scrumb diddly umcious as Ned Flanders would say on The Simpsons.

4) Beef and Barly Soup- Haven't had this one in a while now but definitely on my list to make again down the road. It has been a while since I have had it actually but always enjoy it as it is another hearty soup.

5) Turkey Soup- Love this one too and we always make it with left over Turkey from Thanksgiving or even Christmas time it's a great way to use left overs from holiday favorites one way or another.

6) Finally on my list is Vegetable Soup. I had it for the first time in years as my mom recently made it towards the end of the winter but all I can say my mom's, Aunt Margaret when she was still alive and grandma's soups are the best! 


             There is my top 6 list of soups, I enjoy and like I said there is more on my list but then this post would be an endless ramble of me going on and on about soup! One honorable mention is the Cabbage soup which is one of my faves and I wish I honestly listed it above but least I am giving it an honorable mention.

Happy Easter 2020!

             I'd like to wish you guys a very Happy Easter. I admit this Easter is different from any other Easter due to these times of uncertainty. I admit this Easter been working extra hours to get things caught up and I got my time off scheduled which is Tuesday and Wednesday before I get back to normal schedule for myself. However I am planning to spend an hour or so with my parents to playing games and cannot wait for the Ham, Mashed Potatoes, veggies of some sort and for dessert Pumpkin Pie which was courtesy of my brother and sister in law. I hope you guys enjoy and make the best of your Easter under these extreme circumstances but make the best of it. Hopefully the next holiday we will be back with our own families. I am taking this time and have been taking this time to spend as much time as I can with my parents and been spending a ton more time with my parents and it really has brought me closer to them spending this time. Even during Holy Week leading into Easter my dad and I been spending time watching the mass and service with each other. Even if you are with your parents or with someone you love, you can still make the best of this Easter.


              Still can have Easter but it will be a smaller group and honestly what I am speculating is that my brother, sister in law and the kids probably will have a dinner once this is all said and done but we just do not know honestly. We could be making up and I think we will.  Those are my two cents and again, have a wonderful Easter, be safe, stay home is the best thing.  However it will be a really odd Easter but I guess in the end you just have to make the best of it. I know I sound a bit down and I am as it is not my holiday routine that we are having and this whole situation as you guys know I have been dealing with my mental health but patience is truly a virtue and I need to show a little patience. However I will make the best of this Easter and hope you guys will too and please stay home and stay safe and I will talk to you guys in the next post tomorrow.

Everything About Reality TV Podcast Updates

                So I wanted to provide you guys with an update on the podcast. I have been very quiet and you guys probably thought, Oh he quit again, no been very much active and busy and if you look at any of the platforms, the podcast is back on the move again. In fact as of this morning I got a total of 4 episodes up. I think for those who subscribed to the feeds realized that the feeds started becoming active again after being dormant for weeks on end. Now I know that there is no exact date with the most recent episode of the podcast going up but going to be or am recording some more this morning and this afternoon with a total of 3 more episodes so we could be looking at a Monday finally catching up but cannot promise anything. Everything About Reality TV Podcast is the upmost important for me to get caught up and running again. However I can promise you guys we will be back next Thursday night as usual and we will officially be back on schedule again to the once a week. I am literally going to bed early and up around 1ish in the morning to work on things. Mornings I edit and post up so it is an overnight thing and probably why you are notified during the night. 


                  Now the Amazing Race 32 situation  and shows in general, I am starting to worry there will be no Big Brother 22 and Amazing Race Canada and that's OK but what the plan is for the summer right now is up in the air right now and it is truly a day to day basis and we're monitoring around the clock right now.  Sounding like things could indeed be delayed and not sure when things will get back to normal but again it is a day by day basis. It has been a very stressful time for this podcast with staff changes to the podcast went on a brief hiatus. However, we are back and already got some new Staff for some of the recaps and here is who is going to be doing what as of the summer:

Big Brother US- RealityTeas
Survivor- Billy
Amazing Race- Chris (Me)
Amazing Race Canada- Chris (Me)
Big Brother Canada- Chris (Me)


                   There is the list and as you can see, I am taking on less episodes for the recaps minus the 3 and look forward to the future of this podcast as we progress to our 5th Anniversary. As for the summer the discussions for ideas to even do an off season between June and September to try and fill the void. Again that is being discussed with the team and in time I will have information for you guys soon hopefully and when we know more. Right now we are focusing on catching up and also getting ready for the normal Thursday episode next week. I will post up a link when it's all said and done and we will be back on track this week!
