Power Rangers Collab Is In A Bit of Trouble....

             The Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast is in trouble..... Not financially or legally but it goes along the line when he's able to come back to studio not to just record but also hangout. Sundays was always our day to record and that may be soon to be changing as we may have to change days for recording and also hanging out and I am not happy with my transit system whatsoever. I hope Larry is going to be able to resolve this issue, as we may end up recording during the week but when is the question and I do not really know what will happen as this hasn't been discussed yet as this was figured out yesterday morning where there is no bus just a "B route" and doesn't come all the way out and trust me I have emailed the transit system twice in the last 2 days now and their not hearing the end of it. I told em I run a podcast and Sundays were our regular days which now is not the case anymore. 

              So I do not know the future of this, I have started to question a lot of things, whether it is time for me to move out the area, my childhood home and move into an apartment that actually has a bus route and able to travel without restrictions of service to my Co-Host especially. So this is on my long list of things to discuss with Larry and he already knows cause once again I went off at Larry like usual and he's not going to be happy whatsoever and a ton of planning to do when we're off air between RPM and Samurai and we will probably have a ton of meetings and getting organized before he is able to return to the studio and once I know the plan, we will be sure to tell you guys the plan moving forward but right now it will have to be discussed first and it is at the bottom of our list of things to do right now as the list is quite long. So thanks a lot That is the post for today and I will talk to you guys tomorrow.

Weekly Updates (09-18-2021)

               For this update, I do not have any real updates this week, things are progressing well and you guys saw a pop up podcast for Entertainment Man Podcast and that is because every 2nd week I will have an second episode up so this week there is no bonus episode. However today I wanna focus on the Future of ChrisBOnTheWeb & ChrisBOnTheWeb.com and also one last thing to address as I am struggling with something:

- Jim wasn't lying when it came to his post last Tuesday evening when he came out in the open that I am planning to renew this domain for a longer length and I still got a few years left on this current contract but try renewing this domain for a decade, yes that is how dedicated I am to this website and the projects that I am doing currently. 

- When I get closer into the 10 year anniversary, more then likely just a special anniversary banner will be made for the anniversary but we are planning to not overdo the banners and design but yes it is a big deal that this website.

                One last thing I wanna address before I wrap up today's post is I have been having thoughts about the way The Video Projects Team ended and worried about now that ChrisBOnTheWeb is now getting closer into 7 years now that 8.5 year is only a year and a half away and worried it will not last but as I said it will and Jim and I have been talking about 10 year and having some festivities and probably have a party planned and probably have my Alum here, Justin, Larry here, The Video Projects Team Alum probably will be welcomed to come to the studio to celebrate. I think as I wrap up this weekly updates on the blog today, I know me being on my own for content and yes collaborating with my friends and other content creators is the way to go with this website. I can see the website and ChrisBOnTheWeb brand go 10, 20, 30 years at the most and it will but right now, it's in single digits. That is what I have to say and I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day and I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Weight Loss Update [09-17-2021]

                   I know this hasn't been a thing for a while as my weight went way up by 14 pounds but that has changed since as I haven't been eating much lately and my weight has suddenly been going downwards. I weighed in as of earlier this week at 236 pounds and now sitting 3 pounds lesser then usual. I continue to lose the weight and cut back on things and I plan on continuing to lose the weight each and everyday. I think the not eating definitely had an affect in my weight which is technically good really and I just gotta keep up with it and I can look back at this post to do a count when I do the next update at the end of October time and hopefully by then I am in the 220's again within 2 weeks so I guess I am going for a 10 pound limit. 

                   However I think I wanna do an update end of every month as I do not wanna bore you with the updates every 2 weeks I think it will be more appropriate and that usually lands once a month depending so the next update would be more then likely Oct 29th on the Friday. I know I haven't said much about the weight loss but trying my hardest to lose the weight and wanna get down to 210 by my doctors appointment. My new goal is 200 pounds by end of the year but that may not be a thing or even possible as I have to lose 33 pounds in 3 months but if I continue to lose I can do it. Few things I should remember to do is cut out cookies everyday, any sweets, sugars and what not and I should be able to lose the weight a lot quicker if I cut out the fatty, sweet stuff I should be good. Anyways that is my little update on the situation and I will talk to you guys all tomorrow for the weekly update that is now on Saturdays so have a great rest of your day and HAPPY TGIF!

I Played On A Soccer Team When I Was In Elementary School (Throwback Thursday Story)

                  Way, way, way back when I was still in elementary school, I do not remember what grade I was in technically but I played on a school team. Now mind you the school I was a part of the soccer team on does not exist anymore and is 2 of the elementary schools that do not exist and 2 out of the 3 that had the original name as one other school nearby home change their name. Anyways, I had 0 clue how soccer works and I still have no idea the rules of the sport as it's not too common here minus our MLS League, Toronto FC, Montreal team and some teams down in the state but I mean it is popular in the UK and in Europe. So I mean I had a little bit of an idea with the sport. I remember very little about the team and I remember the tourney north of us called Port Perry which yes I have filmed 2 series up there for on location in the past but this was on the outskirts of the town. I do not think we did too well at the tournament, it was quite a hard tournament and I do not remember if we placed in the top 3 or not but I don't think we did but again this is a very long time ago. 

                But hey it was a once in a lifetime opportunity and I never really played on a team team again since then. I have played freely at the Lake with my camp and also friends and kicking the ball around and I still got a soccer ball but since then it has deflated itself and we would have to reflate it but my niece and nephew could have the ball or we could of gotten rid of the ball since but still would be nice to kick the ball around still despite my knee issues. I know the sport requires a ton of running and a lot of exercise is involved with the sport, but all worth it. Once last neat thing I do remember is the team name was the Griffin's and how I remember this to this day is beyond me as I remember. Anyways that is today's update and I will talk to you all tomorrow morning with an weight loss update how I have started my journey back down to 222 pounds.

Nothing Wrong With Thinking Ahead and Problem Solving!

                   The last 24 - 48 hours I have time to reflect while working on notes and content in general and I have come up with solutions to some of the problems going on around the community, content wise. It is not you guys, it's me trying to do 100 things at once, multi tasking to make sure things get done in a timely fashion to meet goals for the end of 2021. I have been thinking about how to make recording the collab work and the solution I came up is finish Mystic Force, get that done and delivered in the mail to Larry one town over since we are not yet back in studio with one another and once he gets it we will record it and like I said on social media, we will be keeping it on the backburner till all notes are completed and sent out to him and that will be the next project. Practically right now it is Power Rangers Collab Notes and Entertainment Man Podcast and going back and forth with the two projects.  Once I am done the notes I will start to edit the collab and back and forth with that. While working on RPM I will get a head start on Entertainment Man Podcast for 2022. 

                    I am really thinking and planning ahead to what needs to be done for the rest of this year and into 2022. I know I am all over the place right now when it comes to getting the work done and I guess this is a part of me where I have to trust my gut instincts. I cannot say when collab episodes are coming out but I know it will be out probably week apart from one another but I could hold onto episodes till their all done and release em for you guys but this is something I would definitely have to talk to Larry about. However I am always looking into the future and how things can be done, what works and what isn't working and it is about getting things done in a timely fashion. I  know I sound like a broken record but this collab, no offense to Larry but it is eating up my time for other projects on ChrisBOnTheWeb and I was hoping to have started on Entertainment Man Podcast for 2022 already. However it is what it is and just gotta take it one thing at a time, one day and week at a time and it will all come together eventually. That is my post for today, hope you guys enjoyed it and be sure to follow on the right hand side by hitting the follow, best way to know when a new post does go up and I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Going Full Throttle With Notes!

                 After yesterday's adventure and passing out right after dinner just fueled the fire in me to get these notes done and I was up at 1130 pm got a pile of notes done but today and this week is about getting the notes finished. Larry doesn't know this but I pushed the recording up a bit and once I get a confirmation which I have mentioned Skype to discuss all of this and what we wanna do since I am still typing up notes at this point and really pushing to get them all finished and ready to record. Typing does take some time and days to a week at a time but soon as he gets them we are golden but I am going full throttle with the notes! I know it will be quite difficult with recording episode of the other episodes and it is going to be back and forth between that and the notes and it will be a bit of a pain in the butt to deal with but there is a fire lit under me to get these done!

                 I am firing under all cylinders and ready to go! The fact 32 episodes is not as many as we were doing but still a lot to do still regardless. Anyways I am so stoked and excited to be really pushing myself and getting these notes and I already restocked on the blue front cover for notes so I have enough for a while, like 500 sheets in the package so it is good that I am prepared for the future of collab podcasts with Larry and with other people as well, like I said I am firing on all cylinders and excited to just get them all done so I can finish the final episode for 2021 and we can have a clean slate in 2022 because I am OVER 2021! Like really! I am over this year, it's been a year from heck! I am just ready for a reset as this year I think we have recording more episodes then we have done in past years just trying to catch the heck up. No matter what happens, we end up having to push it up just hope we get RPM done that is my big problem, I need to really focus but it is hard but I am full speed ahead! Anyways that is my ramble post for the week and I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Not In Any Rush To Going Back To Events

                       I know I have mentioned the steps and to be honest, I am in no rush whatsoever to get back to events. I know deep inside myself I wanna do it and return to a more normal routine with ChrisBOnTheWeb & ChrisBOnTheWeb.com. What I am trying to say, I could keep things as they are right now and the viewers would stay put as they are. The views would not change whatsoever probably increase in time when things are good enough for me to go to actual events and to bring content from outside the studio and when I gave you guys that stages list I really meant it that events would be the last thing I would go back to. I mean the local events in the area would be a start but I am in absolutely in no hurry to get back to events. Really things are doing just fine. I admit when I switched over from events to topics, it wasn't easy transition and had to change a lot, the scheduling and what not but I had to become a pro at all this change and very quickly. 

                    So what I am trying to say I am no hurry whatsoever to change back to the original format and is one of the reasons why you noticed the change recently with the scheduling starting today as this is the start of getting back to a new normal in our world as you know our world has changed drastically with this pandemic and now I have to have new protocols when it comes to not just the content and having Larry back but the events which has been a major factor in the site and the content and one day it will happen but I am going to take my time when it comes to going back to events but I assure you that day will come just not planning too far ahead, it will depend on number of cases and restrictions and when events do return as there is no real news on it yet and I continue to monitor things as the months go on. That is my post for today and enjoy rest of your day and I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Final Blog Schedule Changes Starting Next Week!

              I wasn't going to talk about this till layer when things get back to a normal but let me tell you so you know ahead of time how the blog schedule will look like. I may as well get you guys all prepared for when things get more back to a new normal. Anyways you guys know the schedule going on right now with the content and I know I have addressed the issue of how will I fit in the schedule and it was a tough one to come across and a lot of moving parts to make it work out but here is the timetable looks like:

Monday's: Regular Topic, however if I do go to an event over the weekend, I will be covering it on the Monday.

Tuesday's: Regular Topic

Wednesday's: Regular Topic

Thursday's: Regular Topic

Friday's:  Weight Loss Update (Every second Friday)

Saturday's: Weekly Updates- Instead of Monday Weekly Updates, I am moving it to Saturday's at the end of the week!

                    There is the schedule and yes Sunday's I am off from the blog and I think this actually resolves the no content on Saturdays and fills in some gaps in the schedule. While writing this podcast for today, I have decided starting Monday, I will start this new timetable immediately and for the meantime, I will just do a regular topic for you guys so starting Monday we go into the new timetable and we have by now probably changed the schedule here on ChrisBOnTheWeb.com. That is today's post and I will talk to you all Monday on a brand new schedule and think this new schedule will work better for me and will be the last change in schedule from here. So have a great weekend and I will talk to you all Monday!

You Can Expect Entertainment Man Podcast To Stick Around A While!

                 As I probably have mentioned on social media, I have been plugging away with new ideas for Entertainment Man Podcast and it has been quite a journey for this podcast and I can say this-- I am planning way ahead and if I have enough ideas, I could possibly seeing this podcast running beyond next year but I am thinking way ahead of myself but it is no secret that I am planning to actually go beyond 2022 and already getting ideas and the more I talk to you all or even my own Alum the more ideas you guys seem to spark with me with this podcast. I am just so excited this can be running into a 3rd year and I never thought it'd last this long. Originally I thought from the start this was only temporary but boy I was wrong! I am not putting down this podcast, I mean I thought this was only going to last a year or two then onto another bigger and better project but hey it's here for a long run right now. Especially with the recent news of breaking just over 100 listens. Finally getting noticed now and that is what matters!

                I definitely wanna continue this project as it has seen a ton of traction and when I wrote this yesterday morning nearly at 1 am EST I was like whoa what the heck.... The most recent episode blew up and I mean it is actually doing super well and really well what I originally though but either way I want this podcast to be around for years to come! I do not wanna see this podcast come off the air any time soon. Plenty more to come that is for sure! I want it here to stay and I wish I did this sooner, I should of stopped after Survivor 39 and just done it in January, I could imagine how well it has been done! Either way I am rambling cause I am just excited to see such an amazing podcast do so well. Anyways that is my post for today and hope you guys enjoyed this post and I will talk to you guys tomorrow!

First Time On The Bus Route That Goes In and Out of My Area!

                 Yesterday, I got to go on the bus and I mean we went on the bus. My mom dropped me off at the mall, I dropped into Staples briefly and met up with Eric for our adventure yesterday. We took the route we already knew about first and we stayed on and passed by where I live and also the CBOTW Studio is also is as well. We went passed there and went into the South side and we ended up practically back at the mall but we actually we're few blocks away as we grabbed a drink and we sat in a parkette for about hour and a half, 2 hours and we had to stop by his place for a few mins and I got to see the apartment since it was a little over an year since I was there and it looked different compare to the last time and felt good to be back there actually and hopefully it can be a thing where I can go over there to visit masked till we are told we can not have masks inside on.  

                 Anyways back to what I was saying, we headed back out on the bus and grabbed the 902B route which turned into my bus that goes back into my area and we asked the bus driver if it does so we lucked in and figured it out on our own without having to call Customer Service but I did email them anyways about my pass stuff and they were very helpful compare to last week when I got a little pissy with the customer service for the on demand but that is now ancient history for me now. I got back in time to talk to Larry which he was only on Monday and yesterday as he has a busy week but good to hear from him. I was exhausted from this trip as it was really the first long bus trip in about a year and a half now. I enjoyed myself and next week I will be more then likely on another adventure and more then likely another post about my adventures on the bus again and maybe this can be a thing almost every week. Anyways I hope you guys enjoyed this post and I will talk to you all tomorrow!

The Binding of Isaac Re-Birth & Minecraft Updates!

                 On The Binding of Isaac Rebirth or Afterbirth not sure which version of the game but I have beaten the ones where the bombs are the only thing you get and I beat that after a few tries and I officially beaten that one officially. Was pretty easy as I am an expert at those kind of challenges on the video game. I forget what it was called on the vanilla Isaac it could of been of been Dr. Fetus that could of been it but its been ages since I played vanilla Isaac since I supposedly beaten it I do not know why but it says I 100% the game and I didn't technically beat it physically and I just do not know how that is mathematically possible but the game must of glitched up at some point but it is really that odd. I am doing another challenge with explosive shots  and gotten close to the end of the game with beating mom's heart but ended up so close at the end and almost got it but it's the fact it tries and bounces back at me that doesn't help whatsoever. 

                 Now onto Minecraft. It is now an end of an era for my house on the main hub as now I have boarded up all my windows on the house and took down all the torches off so it is now pure darkness and the villagers are actually in there still and unable to see and my niece and nephew are going to wonder why the heck my house is all boarded up and abandoned all of a sudden and I will explain. I think I have exhausted everything below the house where the caves I have search and dug caves everywhere and it is time to move on and move to other location down one of the spur lines of the railway and got a new home and place to explore and see other parts of this world. The farm itself I have removed all crops and taken em with me along with food that was left over and some weapons and tools to help me out as I am practically starting from scratch. However it looks weird looking at my house with boarded up windows now as I am now living in a smaller place away from the villagers. I will be back to look in at the main outer part and also to access the office building etc. I am not going to be a stranger but there is so much you can do in a world as you will run out of ideas eventually. That is my updates, hope you enjoyed this, I try and do this every 2 or 3 weeks at the most depending how far I get in a game. I will talk to you all tomorrow!
