Will Power Rangers Podcast Be Recorded and Air This Summer?

                   Yes again, no Chris yet again. I think you won't be hearing much from him over the next couple of days till Monday at the most maybe longer. He is really not in the right shape or mind at this moment. He has got me to do a post to discuss what he discussed last night on Skype with The CBOTW Show's Co-Founder/Senior Producer Larry Rieck. So the main discussion they had was when is the recording and the answer is their aiming for the end of July. Mon. Jul 27th, 2020 & Thurs. July 30h, 2020 are the two dates that week that they are "aiming" towards. There is no guarantees on this right now as Chris is trying to watch the show and get the notes done at the same time. Plus typing up notes which will take some time as well so there is a lot of time consuming for him but with Everything About Reality TV Podcast now a thing of the past, Chris wants to make this a priority now. So the guys are hoping to get it recorded this summer so we can push the podcast out.


                    However the bad news is, with Chris on a Podcast Hiatus for this summer, this means that there will be no new episodes out yet and this means we will be sitting on these next two episodes for the entire summer and sitting on our hard drive waiting for a September release which I will be doing a formal announcement tomorrow's post due to the fact he has to tell me the dates for things and what shows he is planning to cover in the active season and off season as well. So we hope they get to record and we hope that a podcast will be out but if not then the plan is to record in September and double up on the podcasts one in Late September and one in November. Again this all depends on Chris and the prep work and recently he's been up late nights working on it to get it done and ready to go for those dates I mentioned above.

We Made Some Crucial Changes!

                Once again, Chris is off today due to more drama and people annoying him. Honestly it is getting very annoying for me to have to cover him but that is what having a team is all about honestly.  I believe it is for just today as he's now changed the menu bar and website around and it's getting real now! We have some new cool stuff coming up and I think Chris may ask a fellow podcaster to come on his new podcast for an interview. You never know with him. Anyways here are the changes that have been made:


1) Everything About Reality TV Podcast: For the most part, Chris wasn't happy with the outcome of the podcast so what he has done is ended it at his Amazing Race Back to basics season and that is it. Larry doesn't know about the changes till tonight when Chris sits down with him and discusses all the changes that he is actually making to the podcast.

2) The CBOTW Show: It is a real deal now and will be a seasonal podcast and if there aren't shows he wants to cover during the summer then the podcast will be off for the Summer time. He has started to think about covering Last Man Standing to start things off and is currently on his list at this current time. Yes Power Rangers Podcast will be on the 3 times a year schedule and Chris is working on the show all weekend long starting today so he will be very, very busy person.

3) Entertainment Man Podcast: Finally after a long debate, Chris has decided to do Entertainment Man Podcast after all since he has time between his seasonal Podcast, The CBOTW Show so he will keep himself busy but once a week is enough for him to get his dose of a podcast and he has some cool ideas in the back of his mind.

4) Blog posts: One last thing I want to add into this post is there could be a possibility to Reality Teas joining the blog team and talking about Big Brother every week when it is on the air but that is up to him to decide.


                   Any who that is what is going on and this unnecessary drama has to stop before Chris does something he regrets like shutting down the website all together which hes been threatening since yesterday to shut it down or not renew the domain again after the 4 year term is up but we will make sure he doesn't do anything stupid. Well what is left of our team not which is Larry, myself and Boss Man Chris as we do not know what Reality Teas status now that Everything About Reality TV kicked the bucket again for the 3rd and final time. However, Chris, Larry and Reality Teas should be proud, 4.5 years, 13 seasons, 265 episodes is a major milestone indeed. There is nothing to be sad about but be more proud of the accomplishments they made.

Big Brother 22 Speculations...

              There has been a ton of speculations from Dan coming on this season which he's now disappeared from Twitter and hasn't posted anything up on his Twitter and his Twitch Shows stopped this week where he isn't streaming at all right now. Even his Twitter and Instagram there has been one post to re run shows during the week and an announcement Sunday at 3 pm EST and I just got that funny feeling he's going to be on this season of Big Brother a d I wish I was on to recap it but that isn't my domain now as Chris (Reality Teas) has taken over the podcast. Anyways I read another post stating from Cody from BB19 saying it will not air this summer that we are not going to see a season of Big Brother but we will see. So far we have heard rumors of it being an All-Stars Season and sounds like it is going to to be just that as maybe they haven' gotten enough interesting people for an entire new cast but I just do not know what to believe anymore.  Maybe they had auditions to cover the fact that this season was an All-Stars. I've spoken to a bunch of you through Facebook groups, Twitter, etc and you guys did mention that they had auditions to cover up for Season 7 being an All-Stars season.  Back to the Dan situation, yes he's not streaming on Twitch, however he's still got videos scheduled to go up everyday so maybe that's a cover up? 


                Again, I just do not know what to expect what this season is to bring us and if it isn't true or not if it will happen. They still sound very hopefully on this season of Big Brother will happen. I know some Alum have hinted that they are on this season and just by going to their socials and seeing if they've tweeted or posting up a picture or not is a pretty good hint that they are going to be on this season. We will find out and they may just as well be in sequester at this current time to play the game once again. However I do not want them to end the production of this season of Big Brother early like they did up here in Canada for BBCAN and just worried it will happen again.  We will see hopefully soon if these speculations are true or not but again it will be the matter of time and hopefully in the next week or so we will find out whether all these speculations are true. Honestly I do not wanna jump to conclusions if this is really going to happen or not because I am pretty positive it will and they will make the necessary precautions and rules during this pandemic. Finally it is good to be back to blogging and I will talk to you guys tomorrow and oh Happy Canada Day to all the fellow Canadians out there!

We Have To Address This....

                The last week has been so dramatic to be honest. Not just that but disrespect not just Chris but myself as well. It has gotten to a point where we had to start removing things off the website to avoid the extra drama to be honest. What do I mean? Well the chats that were on the site here are now gone and will not be returning anytime soon. More then likely it will never return. Chris is so stressed out with this drama, he's had to take an additional day hence the reason why I am back on the blog. I've told him to take his time with coming back and he's actually switched tomorrow's post 2 or 3 times now with recent news that he has heard about BB22 (Big Brother 22) so he is hoping to discuss that tomorrow. However back to what I said, we the staff of ChrisBOnTheWeb & ChrisBOnTheWeb.com will not tolerate any type of disrespect of drama moving forward. We do not need the Owner taking breaks all the time as there is a ton of work to be done especially with The CBOTW Show that is suppose to be recorded as of this upcoming month so time is ticking and he was up late watching the show and getting notes done for this podcast so he can start typing up notes for the podcast.


                    The point is, we will ban if we have to if the drama is non stop and continues to a point of any of us feel like we've been disrespected or drama we will ban but it is is hard to ban as we do not have that privilege with blogger to ban people from coming on our site but comments will be sent to spam from here on out. We're putting 0 tolerance for any disrespect and drama. I'm sorry but I'm beyond frustrated not just for myself, the team and our Founder & Owner, Chris who had to take more time off from social so he can just focus on the podcasts at hand. Enough is enough. Chris, myself and the rest of the team puts a ton of hours into the website and content you see on a regular basis and we sure as heck do not wanna have to deal with any of this anymore. I'm sorry if I'm coming off a little harsh but I had to address this so you guys know there will be 0 tolerance for disrespect and drama. I will talk to you all Sunday for the weekly updates and let's hope the rest of this week remains calm and cool and no more problem.

Everything About Reality TV, Shows & The YouTube Situation

              So obviously Chris is unavailable today for a post and there is a reason. As I specified on Social Media he's been under an enormous amount of stress but it don't stop him on his goals and aspirations with the website, blogs and podcasts. In this post and he has given me entire permission to go ahead and talk about this. However this hasn't been discussed with the team, Co-Founder/Senior Producer and the other hosts haven't been notified of his plan but he will be posting this up during the daytime today for discussion. 


-  Now we aren't worrying about Big Brother 22 too much but if they somehow decide to not do it then YouTube will be continuing on the back burner but for the most part it sounds like there will be a season but he has something in the planned in case of a worse case scenario situation.

- Now the fall is the next thing and a ton of questions what does this mean for YouTube and he has a few scenarios if Survivor doesn't air this fall and we hope so but there is no news when they are going to start filming the next season at this moment.

- First scenario: Chris has decided if Big Brother 22 is a no go for some odd reason and Survivor is a no go in the fall, then what the plan is for him to remain off YouTube and wait it out till one of the shows that we cover that does air on YouTube that will be the more suitable situation.

- Second scenario: If Big Brother 22 airs this summer as it sounds like it is a most definite go despite the state of the pandemic in the U.S. Then what he will be doing is, in the fall when Amazing Race 32 airs, he will record both Video and Audio ONLY and upload it to YouTube for the time being and there will be no Live stream, just uploaded as we're just starting out on the Video side of things right now.


              There is what is going to be happening and Chris should be back to blogging tomorrow as he's taking it easy right now and that is his plan with the podcast and again he will be working on discussing this with his staff more then less letting them know what the plan is. It took a bit of time to decide what he wanted to do but he's finally made this decision moving forward.

ChrisBOnTheWeb Updates for 06-28-2020

                This is our last update for the month of June as we're heading into the month of July already. So there has been a lot of issues around our community and drama which mind you is unacceptable but I will talk about it in today's post.


Everything About Reality TV-  Only thing we can tell you as we are hiring for Amazing Race and Amazing Race Canada and other show which you can apply by going here:
https://form.jotform.com/201782407842052 Also boss man Chris recorded the Tough As Nails Preview and doesn't feel too confident on it but time will tell if we get listeners for this show. He feels like he's taking a big risk or gamble but that is how he is.

Website- There was so much drama here on the website which mind you is unacceptable. Disrespect towards me or Chris or the rest of the team will not be tolerated whatsoever. We had to ban our first individual which we do not wanna ban too much but rules are rules and inexcusable for not following our terms or guidelines.  We also have decided to permanently remove chats from the website due to drama so there will be no chat on the website from here on out. We're trying to simplify things for not just us but Chris as well.

The CBOTW Show- Only thing I can say is feeds are now active and Chris is working on Wild Force and hopes to finish it next week so he can type up notes and record with Larry.


               Not much in updates this week, just the usual and most updates are about the website itself but right now not much to report back to you guys on with the website at this point really. It has been very quiet recently, especially around CBOTW HQ, I'm sure.  I'm sure if there's updates he will be sure to let us know but for the most part nothing to really say elsewhere on what I said and I will talk to you guys next week.

As of Tomorrow, We Are Moving Blogs To 11 AM EST!

                  As of tomorrow, Sunday, June 28th, 2020, we are officially moving our Blog posts back to 11 am EST as we originally had it when we first started scheduling daily blog posts. I think this is the best decision for us. I know we said that we would be switching back times but we just totally forgotten we announced it and went through with it hence the reason why we are announcing it today so you guys know. As I said Sunday, we are making the blog post released at 11 am EST which is only an hour back of the current schedule for the podcast. Anyways I think this will open a ton of doors for other projects as we are trying to be flexible with scheduling as much as we can and this is one of the reasons why I wanted to actually bring it back an hour. Also I was gonna do this when Entertainment Man Podcast was still on the air back nearly 3 months ago when it abruptly ended so that was the original reason behind it but now I just wanna make sure hosts and projects have the most appropriate scheduling time slot.


                 It will not be me on Sunday's post with the change over of times as that is usually my day off from CBOTW Blog posts most of the time but I start with the new time on Monday and boy I have a couple of gaming related updates to make too and excited to make the updates. Also got a couple of ideas, including when do I wanna start going to events in 2021 which will be a difficult one to write. I think we got more views in the late morning for the blog posts then at the normal 12 pm EST time slot. I promise you guys this change will not change ever again and it will remain as it is moving forward from here on out. I wanna try and stick to the same schedule with things but sometimes we have to make changes that we don't like but it is what it is to be honest. Anyways there is my post for today and I hope you guys are fine with this change of times for the blog and I'm sorry we didn't go with the changes originally but we just totally forgotten about the change over all together. Anyways I am excited for these changes to tjeblog posts moving forward.

Survivor & Big Brother Canada 9 On Hold, Amazing Race Canada To Air Next Year!

                 So much going on and this nightmare is far from over. Yes I am making reference to "Everything About Reality TV Podcast."  Yeah it's not been the greatest year for the podcast and I will get into that on another post on Friday here on the blog. Today I wanna talk about some of the Reality TV Shows I watch and also cover on the podcast. Anyways here is what is going on:


Survivor 41: I know it has been in doubt when they will be bringing back Survivor. I had word they were going to start filming it but now what I heard last it is now on hold which I found out from another fellow podcaster of mine. So I wonder and hope they get time to at least film Survivor 41 for this fall so this doesn't hurt my podcast whatsoever.

Big Brother Canada 9: What I have heard is they are putting Big Brother Canada on hold according to Big Brother Maple and MyIClick which you can find https://myiclicktv.com/big-brother-canada-9-fans-react-to-news-season-9-on-hold/ or http://bigbrothermaple.com/bbcan9-placed-on-hold for the entire article. However they are not sure they will be able to afford to air it as they are highly depend on sponsors etc but anyways you can read about it in the two articles I sourced on here. Yes I am sad to see this happen and I will again address why on the Friday post.

Amazing Race Canada 8: Finally on the list is Amazing Race Canada which they recently announced on their social media that they will be back next year for Amazing Race Canada 8 so this means they aren't able to film the show this year due to this Pandemic.  However this is why I already have Tough As Nails and hopefully one other show but I am fine with this but I understand why. 


             I know it took them sometime to announce but least we are now getting some news on the shows we love and watch. However we are still awaiting on Big Brother 22 and I just hope Big Brother 22 happens so this won't end up losing listeners especially with our Reality TV Podcast. It is frustrating indeed to have all this spare time of no Reality TV Show so I am trying to make the best of my time to be honest.

Today Marks 1K in Blog Posts!

                    Well today marks 1000 blog posts or 1K if you wanna be totally politically correct... LOL. Anyways when we first started these posts it was here and there on the website and this was just the start so we weren't on the full time or daily blog posts and I couldn't really tell you when we started the full time blogging on a regular basis. However when we did we were very consistent with posting on on a regular basis actually. Yes we did miss a couple of days here and there and we're not trying for a world record but to have this many posts over the years since the beginning of Chris B On The Web almost 6 years ago we sure made up the time. I want to go through all the posts and I know that's a lot but I will be able to find it and pin point where we started and it definitely can be a post for next week and I will write it on my white board as a reminder of to do this post.


                   This isn't going to be overly a long post as I was rushed as I had an dentist appointment today but I want to thank you. Thank-you for sticking by us over the years, remaining loyal to our website, the podcasts and the growing pains we have experienced here on the website through the thick and thin of things with the website. Here is to many more blog posts as we are nowhere near stopping the daily blog content on a regular basis. As long as you guys continue to read the posts, we will continue to create new and exciting posts. We enjoy keeping you guys up to date with the progress of the website and the growth and we have some neat things in the works that we are planning to bring back to the website that we recently removed. We got ton more exciting blog posts coming next week with a ton more updates especially in my gaming world as I just recently made it. So you guys can see we're not slowing down we are full speed ahead.

Mixer Shutting Down-- My Thoughts?

           This came sudden to me with the announcement for Mixer streaming website and I was honestly shocked. I know recently I have had my own feelings about the website but will not talk bad about them as it was a really good website up to me being banned for apparently being under 13 years of age which all of you clearly know that I am not. I was reading into their blog post and did not understand why they were closing and it doesn't  really explain why it is shutting down but here's the article: https://blog.mixer.com/2020/06/22/the-next-step-for-mixer/  however I do not understand why. In my opinion it is truly sad to see another website closed. First Stickam which I grew up with, then BlogTV.com then Justin.TV, Stream.me and so forth. This does mean that streamers will either have to go to Facebook gaming as it says in the post or some go back to Twitch, YouTube or another website. I know how it feels to go from site to site, I've been there as some was the perfect fit for me some weren't. It is wherever you are most comfortable streaming to be honest/


            However I have to remain positive with this post and I have to say thank-you to the Mixer Team for being there for us gaming content creators and helping us grow as creators and grow our community and help us succeed in creating our own community and building. We understand why you have to close down and I remember when it first opened and trust me I was most impressed with the way it looked and I loved the way the chat looked and the name colors rather then a badge for a rank on your chat or even subscriber and I really liked that they were different from other platforms.  I may not be streaming games anymore but still support gaming sites even without it as I watch streamers like Taran from Rob Has A Podcast, Kevin from Big Brother Canada, Boogie2988, McJuggernuggets. Also still streaming our podcast on YouTube eventually. However thank you for reading what I have to say and stayed positive throughout the post and I will see you in the next post tomorrow.

Changes and Announcements

           Over the last couple of days so much has happened since Mark announced what was going with Chris B On The Web. So this is I guess is another update and you know I love to keep you guys in the loop on things, so this is why this is yet another update 2 days later. So here are the updates:

Website:  Chats been moved to a single tab as the Big Brother idea probably will not work out so we will have one general chatroom called "Lounge" which is now active and open to the public. Yes we actually did open it to guests if you choose to not make an account but we still encourage it. However if guests get too rowdy like before and this is years ago then we will go back to where you have to login.  Also we've added the Live (YouTube) on our website with coming soon. Also CBOTW Gamers Podcast was removed and The CBOTW Show is under Other Podcasts and I will get to that shortly on this post why we removed it and moved the podcasts I mentioned. 

Everything About Reality TV: Myself, Larry (Our Co-Founder & Senior Producer) and our host for Big Brother Recaps made the executive decision to indeed do YouTube. Now there is no ETA when we will actually launch it at this point as we're still waiting on Big Brother 22 news and at this point nothing, nadda zip. I said this to Chris (Reality Teas) I am sick and tired of the rumors and just want more information. You know this is harming the podcast with lack of podcasts right now and we're trying our best. Speaking of that it doesn't sound like Amazing Race Canada is a no go and the reason is because of production has been postponed so it is sounding like they are going to wait till next year which really hurts the podcast but we understand it is because of this pandemic and it is always safety first for the cast and crew of the show.

The CBOTW Show: As I said above The CBOTW Show was moved up and now under Other Podcasts as I cannot put numerous show pages. I just do not wanna complicate this website too much as it is very complicated and complex as it is. So all shows will be under 1 page at this point. We will adding more shows later but this is the start. We also have our 2 Audio ONLY pages as of right now as we're waiting on Stitcher to fix our feed which wasn't fixed technically but besides the point really.

CBOTW Gamers Podcast: We're back to square one with this podcast and it was decided by me to just cancel the podcast all together and 0 plans and interest in bringing it back at this point as we just couldn't work things out with the host so it is just better it is on the shelf for good this time around. This is a business decision as this has been going back and forth for years now and at this point this podcast is not going to see production anytime. 


            I have every right as I am the Executive Producer for the programming you see on this very website and have darn right to cancel is put a podcast on hiatus to where I see it fit as I know I had one person not so happy with me but you gotta realize I am the one that has the power to do all that and it is my decision in the end. However that is what is going on with Chris B On The Web and anymore updates or developments especially in our Reality TV Department, we will let you all know soon!

Would I Audition For Big Brother Canada Again?

               I know a lot of you know that I have auditioned for Big Brother Canada in the past, numerous times Season 3, 4, 6 and 8. Yeah I remember the seasons I auditioned for. Now it's been brought up by my loyal fans and friends if I'd do it again. Well as you know the website has really taken off and now we have a team I just wanna focus on the website and continuing to grow the website. Honestly I have tried 4 times and I know Dan winner of Big Brother 10 said it took him ton of times to get on the show but that's not the reason why I do not wanna be on the show. The real reason is I just wanna focus on Chris B On The Web. It's become a priority and become so crazy with running the site with podcasts being added. I also do not have the desire to be on Reality TV, I do not have the itch to be on Reality TV anymore. I've tried so many times and really I want to focus on Chris B On The Web and it's podcasts and I just feel like I will not get on Reality TV unless they find out I'm a blogger and podcast personality. However you never know but I highly doubt it. The Podcast name has gotten out there recently.


               My days with auditioning for Reality TV is over as I said my focus is CBOTW as it's become a big part of my daily life and it's become very hectic for me and running this website is a job and a half to do too. Everyday it's the upkeep of the website, answering emails, etc. I know I got staff to do that but I am fine with this decision really. I will walk away from these experiences with knowledge and it also has made me a lot more confident as a person. I remember when I first did it I was so nervous but when I did the second audition through video, I was a bit more confident. When I got to the open audition, I was pretty confident person and I felt confident in my answers. However that ship has sailed and mind you I am going to still watch the shows and recap as it is part of my job as the Executive Producer of two amazing Podcasts so the answer is I am not going to audition for Reality TV anytime soon as I am focusing on this website.

Chris B On The Web Updates (06-21-2020)

              It is time for another weekly update for Chris B On The Web. Another crazy week and we have made some changes to the website. I will explain in this update.  We were messing around with the website and have the ability to shut this blog off if we just get plain tired of blogging but it is your news source for updates around our community. 


1) Website-- We have added chats as you know but we have started to consider to remove it as it has yet to be active so we have done that and the chat menu drop down menu has been removed from the website for the time being. No plans to bring it back at this current time. 

2) Everything About Reality TV-- Chris worked on the podcast with some new podcast content and decided to 3 podcasts 2 more off season podcast and the preview podcast but you never know with him to be honest what he is thinking. He has been working on the notes all weekend long which is good. He hopes tomorrow to start recording all 3 and the editing process for them all. I cannot give you much information as I do not even know what he has planned.

3) The CBOTW Show-- He's been working on intros again and re doing every episode intro for the Power Rangers Podcast and is done at this point. The feed remains quiet for right now as he isn't planning anything till he is done with Wild Force and has the notes typed up and ready to go. 

4) CBOTW Gamers Podcast-- It is currently unknown if it will actually return right now and we're waiting on our potential host whether they are going to be doing it and this stems back to not announcing things till we are sure it will be happening. So we have made numerous changes to the website recently. 

                That is all I have for updates for this week. Not much to update except all the work we have put into the website and constantly bringing out content for you all. We continue on a daily basis to improve things on Chris B On The Web and any suggestions or ideas please do feel free to shoot us a private message on our social medias and we will take you suggestion for the very nearby future.
