Favorite Laurel and Hardy Movies!

              Today, I would like to talk about my favorite Laurel and Hardy Movies or short films as they called it back in the day! Now I have touched based last week who got me into them and what not and now it's time to give you guys a few episodes that I actually do enjoy so here they are:

1) Sons of The Desert- I believe this was the original episode but do not quote me on that I do not know the actual order which has a ton of stupidity but hilarious in the same way and Stanley dancing around when they were back at their apartment door steps. 

2) Be Big- The episode where the two of them made an excuse to their wives to go out instead of a trip however that backfired and wives came home and they sure found out Oliver wasn't sick and their schemes.

3) Swiss Miss-  Where they are in Switzerland and they are movers and had to move the piano across a bridge that moves as you are going on and honestly didn't look safe but there was also a monkey involved. It was hilarious!

4) The fourth and final one on my list and there is other ones but again as I have said this before in the past I cannot make a overly long list but there are others, however the 4th and final one on my list is the Flying Deuces where Oliver is in love and found out the girl he loves is married  and they enlisted themselves into the army to find out the husband of the girl he loves is in there and in the end they are flying in an airplane and Oliver comes back as a donkey meanwhile Stanley is himself! Worth the hour and a bit of the full length episode!


              There is my list and some of the ones I really enjoy to watch and have to binge watch some of these and other ones I enjoy as well. I hope you guys enjoyed my little bit of my favorite Laurel and Hardy episodes I enjoy. I  will see you guys in the next post tomorrow at Noon eastern, have a wonderful Wednesday!

Everything About Reality TV Podcast Has Been Banned On Twitch!

              All I can say is wow... Just wow... We deactivate our Twitch because we weren't planning on going on the platform and decided to give it a shot anyways to find out if we can pull in the crowd to find out we have been banned from Twitch for no apparent reason and I guess deactivating your account Twitch is against the Terms of Service (TOS!)  It really ticks me the heck off that we put our blood, sweat and tears into preparing to move back to video to find out we were banned from the platform for no reason, no notice in email we were banned for such and such time which is crap honestly. Guess we are confining the podcast to YouTube ONLY now and if YouTube axes us then we are going back to our root for almost the last 4 years aka Audio ONLY platforms. I have started to even wonder why we are doing video again after we departed from YouTube in 2016 but the staff wanted this, YOU guys the most amazing fans in the world wanted this and we are going to give it our best shot to grow on YouTube again as we did once have fans and listeners of the podcast on YouTube before. 


              Also technically the podcast did start on there from the beginning and maybe this is where we have to go from here on out.  So what's the plan moving forward? As you know, we are in testing mode right now, testing the waters on YouTube and got a good clear idea how to run YouTube channel with the Live Shows we will be putting on. I have been working with my team and we are getting good progress with it and going to be testing one more time live. The channel isn't visible right now in search on YouTube but it is on the platform and has been a channel since the 13th of this month so 8 full days of it being. We  will be taking off on video soon but right now is not the right time. Guess Twitch doesn't want us I guess. We're not wanted on their platform. I wanted to multi stream and guess it wasn't meant to be. Thanks Twitch for banning us when we didn't even stream much minus innocent tests which we have to test and ensure there is 0 issues! Don't think we will message them about this. I'm just done with Twitch in general but going to message em to tell em we didn't even do anything wrong and what is wrong with their moderators or admins on the platform! Like seriously! Maybe Mixer is the better fit for the podcast or just YouTube but I think we are going to focus on YouTube and YouTube ONLY!

Chris B On The Web Update [04-20-2020]

               I have some updates for you guys for today's post. I got some stuff to update you guys on and start with the team. I am guessing Larry is part of the "Staff" again as he's been involved highly especially recently with this pandemic and our studio in lock down. That is another thing that you guys knew we are still in lock down and when this is all done anyone that visits the studio out of the staff will have to bring their own ear buds or headphones. It will be like that for quite sometime after this is over but going to be cautious one way or another. Now Everything About Reality TV is doing well and as you will notice today I am doing weekly podcasts with a Survivor Winners At War Breakdown and rankings and honestly it was fun, I enjoyed doing it and really got into it and honestly it's different from the recaps and I can see myself doing this is a future seasons and never know I could even do it on video even tho I initially planned on Audio ONLY for those but it's Survivor and I think when we go to video, we will, I mean I will record it and premiere it when we are on YouTube this way you guys get to see it.  However back to what I was saying that we are nowhere near ready and been trying to search for the podcast on YouTube but nowhere near finding it and I know the trailer is up but it's unlisted as it will be seen by new visitors hence the reason the channel isn't found as we didn't start it yet. 


               Blog and the website doing well. Not as many views as last month but still over 2K which is still  a great number and that growth is there some months are better then others and last month the growth was insane. However with the blogs returned daily now shows we are continuing on the growth spur of the website. I think the fact we didn't post much and went to every second day for 2 weeks didn't help but I had to in order to get it done. I've been stuck with trying to watch Power Rangers Podcast and I said I was going to watch it but haven't been motivated to watch and with May approaching, I need to start catching up to speed on things if we are indeed recording in June which we are still determining what the plan is with the state of the world right now Either way things are doing well for us and we're progressing well and things are slow at times but also I have been working on things and trying to split things up and taking time for myself and really working hard on a daily basis and watching shows to get moving on certain podcasts but this week I am going to work hard once again. I think I am getting into a routine again.

Back To Blogging Daily!

                 As you can tell on Thursday, I went back to daily blogs on a daily basis. It is very exciting to be back to normal again with posts and keeping regular on the posts. I think I actually did not follow majority of the schedule as last week I went all over the place. However that is OK tho! Sometimes being random is a good thing but that is besides the point. It is good to be back in the daily grind with the posts and honestly I enjoy it. I really do enjoy it and talking to you guys on a regular basis and with what is going on with me and also the Chris B On The Web Community. Tomorrow, I am planning to update you guys on things around CBOTW, Staff wise and some new and familiar faces involved with the website and of course the graphical side of things that you have recently seen. So I have a ton of updates to make for you guys and excited to tell you guys some things that has happened behind the scenes.  I think I would like to do a weekly update blog post for you with the happenings around the community and I think that is what I am planning moving forward.  I actually already have put up on the whiteboard the update posts and Monday (tomorrow) I will have an update for you guys on things around the community.


               Also I would like to start doing more throwback Thursday stories and see if I can incorporate even some past stuff regards to YouTube series I worked on in the past as I am sure there is a ton of stories I can tell and I can think of some on the top of my head. So basically Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays will have set topics while Sundays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Friday's will be up to my list of posts and again, I am open to ideas for the blog here on the website. Either way it is good to be back in the grind and currently combating a head cold which is very odd how I ended up but that's a story for Tuesday's post for you guys as that is an open day on our list. Anyways I will talk to you guys on tomorrow's post, enjoy the rest of your Sunday and see you on the post tomorrow.

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)
