What's My Role On The After Show With Amy F?

                What is my role with The After Show With Amy F? A little of everything! 

- Writer: Coming up with questions when she is stumped on questions for each episode, also ideas to help expand the horizon with her podcast in Survivor content. 

- Technical Director: Also if she runs into trouble and that has happened in the early half especially with me on as a guest host I do not know if you guys noticed that echo of my voice well it was cause she didnt have headphones when I was on so that was fixed. Also Skype not picking up the video feed was an issue as well so that was a problematic issue but all figured it out.

- Editor: Got editor privelages, actually I'm an owner on that channel but any revenue goes towards her when she eventually gets and hopefully monetized on YouTube. I can edit the descriptions to help her get more hits, more views as she knows, I've been in the YouTube game for a very long time and she knows and appreciates my help to help this podcast grow. Also editing in the intro which is easy to do and takes second to put together which completes and makes the podcast awesome for Audio ONLY. 

- Fill In Host: Almost happened last week as she had a medical emergency last week that I had to assume the role as Fill In Host and I was ready but she was just fine! I was honored she wanted me to fill in and I am on call if she needs me to assume the role as Fill In/or Guest Host whatever you wanan call that role. 

               I know that there are other roles with the Podcast that I probably didn't say but this is the main roles within the podcast and I am excited to have a role on this podcast and be a part of what is an amazing podcast. I am a Production Staff, I have numerous roles on the podcast and just happy to be a part of this even in the smallest way. Anyways that is my post for today, hope you guys enjoyed this and I will talk to you guys tomorrow.

Wendy's Baconator Food Review

                     A week ago I was with Eric and both of us decided to go to Wendy's for lunch as 2 years ago was when things started to lock down on us and we decided to go back 2 years later. So I ordered the Baconator Combo which came with fries and a drink. Fries were great as always, and Wedny's always has good fries, not too salty. The burger was awesome, two burger pattis with Cheese, ketchup and a white sauce I have no clue what it was to be quite honest. However it was an awesome burger and cannot go wrong with Wendy's burgers and I think it is on the top 3 list of mine along with Mr. Burger still the # 1 burger place then Wendy's and Harvey's. 

                 Was a really juicy and messy burger and messier it is the better it is honestly. I am giving Wendy's a 10 out of 10 for the burger and fries which was amazing and I enjoyed it and honestly it didn't last that long as I was starving I had a smoothie in the morning then Wendy's at around noon hour. Anyways I plan on doing other reviews like this in the very nearby future especially at Wendy's I will be sure to try something different next time around but I can say this that food reviews are back so stay tune for more and I will talk to you all tomorrow!

My Thoughts About No Masks

                I think getting rid of masks this soon is not the right move as this weekend cases went up and getting rid of the mask mandate this soon was the wrong move to be quite honest. As you know I am out and about today with Eric and I have made the decision to keep wearing my mask and there might be a time where I actually take it off but more then likely keeping it on most of the time and I know Eric will at times too but I have to remember not all my friends are and I am more at a greater risk at getting sick and I don't like the fact masks are not required unless you visit at a nursing home or at the hospital so I do not agree with our Premier's decision to actually get rid of the masks and I feel like it's just too soon. I do like that you do have to wear masks when on the transit which is good and I think that is a good thing. Just the indoor settings is one of the big things that bothers me though in general.

                I wish they waited till end of May till cases were down more and I have that feeling we may end up with high cases and the mask mandate will resume again which our premier is going to do exactly that so he is making the right moves and this is why my decisions towards Larry returning to studio, I am on the cuff making that decision right away. I think that is the reason I gave you guys a Plan A and B is cause I just do not know which way I am going in my head right now I have a ton of mix feelings with the no mask mandate yet I had no mask on in the food court with Terry and Eric and not gotten sick whatsoever so that is truly a good thing and I think it is more about me feeling and getting comfortable enough to not wear my mask. However I wish our Premier would kept the masks on in public places longer but we'll see what happens moving forward. That is my post for today, I hope you guys enjoyed this post and I will talk to you all on tomorrow's post.

Considering Some Events This Year!

               As you know with COVID events were cancelled and a year ago I cancelled going to all events. With things opened up and getting back to more of a normal again now and mask mandates pretty much done which I don't agree with honestly. However I already told my dad that I wasn't comfortable going to events in Toronto completely however here is a list of events that I would consider going to this year:

Maple Festival In Bowmanville (May 7th, 2022)

Auto Fest (August 27th - 28th, 2022, down at the Lake)

Apple Festival (October 15th 2022)

Royal Winter Fair in Toronto (November 2022, if it returns and safe to go.)

Tyrone Farmers Parade of Lights (December 2022, if it returns)

Christmas Market in Toronto (December 2022, if it returns and safe to go.)    

         That is a small list of things to do and as you can see there are three events not listed on the blog here and I have already made it clear I will not go to events that are very crowded like the Polish and Ukrainian Festivals, Canada Day Fesitivities as well. Only 2 Toronto events are listed for right now. Next year I will add the others back knowing things are a ton better by 2023 so that is my post for today, hope you guys enjoyed this blog post and I will talk to you all on Monday's blog post.

End of The Week Updates [03-18-2022]

                  Another week has gone by and I got a bunch of updates to tell you guys on top of some interesting opportunities that has come up for me but here are the updates:

Website: As you all know there has been changes made to the website this week which the first update is YouTube link for Entertainment Man Podcast has been removed off of On Demand and the channel has been deleted all together.  Also The CBOTW Show page has been brought back which has a bio since there isn't any known archives for that project as I changed it and it has been added to the Archives. Speaking of Archives I made it so below the image is the years the archived podcasts were on the active list which meant the entire archives had to be re-coded all together which is a basic HTML table so it was easy to put together in 30 minutes. Also the contact page now has a help that is open during the week in case you have general questions about ChrisBOnTheWeb. We all need time off so the chat is open only during the week with weekends off. Chat will open at 9 am, EST every Monday and close at 6 pm every Friday then off for the weekend and open on the Monday if that makes any sense to you guys.  Chat is open as of yesterday. 

The After Show With Amy: As you know Amy had an emergency and I had to fill in this week for her which was a ton of fun to be quite honest. Was an honor to fill in and actually do it live. This week I setup the stream and it had quite a good response especially pre-stream with 4 people waiting for the stream to start. Actually it stayed that way majority of the 24 hours the stream was waiting which is incredible that people wanted to see it and I see exactly what she needs to do so when shes home and better we will be doing some tech with the channel to get her doing them live cause its proving to be the way to go. 

Podcast Opportunity: I am going to be on Emo Dojo Podcast tomorrow at 1 pm EDT/12 pm CT/11 am MT/10 AM PT it will be just Audio ONLY and when it goes up I will be sure to be sending it out to you guys to have a listen. This is a great opportunity and excited to go on tomorrow! 

                That is the updates for this week, I have come up with a ton of new ideas for the blog moving forward and excited for you guys to read them and excited what great content I have for the website here. Trust me it is really, really good content. Have a great weekend and I will talk to you all Monday.

Happy St. Patrick's Day 2022!

                 First of all, Happy St. Patrick's Day to you all! For the first time in 3 years I am actually going down to the local pub nearby me for St. Patrick's Day with my dad which is a tradition with him for the last several years and I plan on having 2 things, whiskey on the rocks and maybe just maybe a green beer perhaps but we'll see how I feel. Also what I am looking forward to is actually having some food as the last time I ate there was the day after my birthday but with my dad I haven't been there since 2019 was the last time and if I remember correctly it was for my neighbours 60th birthday if my memory serves me correctly that is the last known time unless I went in January or February 2020 but I really do not think I did honestly. However by the time you guys see this I am getting ready to go down to the pub and enjoy my time with my dad. 

               Please remember if your going out to celebrate St. Patrick's Day to be safe and drink responsibility and get a cab, uber back home. Be sure to stay tuned for pictures on social media as I will post pictures as I take some and first pictures on St. Patrick's Day's in 3 years. So that is my small post update for today, I ensure I worked half a day today and decided to take a few hours off so I can enjoy my time with my dad. I will talk to you all tomorrow for the end of the week updates as we wrap up another hectic week.

Gaming Updates! [03-16-2022]

                 I have been playing a bit with the video games and can give you guys a bit of an update. Three game updates I have, Minecraft, The Binding of Isaac Rebirth and Luck of The Landlord:

Minecraft: The 3 main houses have vines and to be honest I may have said that before LOL. I do not remember the last time I did an update and been a while maybe before the New Year at the most. I can say the Office building is for the most part done! I probably will get back to adding more levels eventually but right now it is a 7 level office building and it may be the biggest building in Minecraft history but I'd have to check that out. Also out front is a small village that I am currently building and it is made from entirely from wood and the plan is to build a monster city eventually of houses and what not and not everything will have villagers some will and I'm sure it will be wide spread I'm sure.

The Binding of Isaac Rebirth: I have beaten with Azeal in Greed Mode which is really, really hard and something that I thought I'd never do in my entire life. I have actually unlocked Lillth which has a floating item that shoots out tears and that is the only thing that shoots out tears so it is quite a tough challenge but still working on it.

Luck Be The Landlord: I have gone pretty far about 7 or 8 out of 12 at the most and I am going to actually beat this first level as there are a ton of levels I can do after this and excited to when this actually happens. I seem to be playing this more and more lately.

               That is my blog post for today with video games update and I will be sure to do another update when I get another update on video games as I rarely get to play games as I am always working on content and need to take time for myself and play video games. Fornite is a game I need to get back into that eventually. I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Meatloaf With Rice, My thoughts....

               Last week or was it the week before that? I do not remember honestly. However I did not know there was rice, I saw white chunks in the meatloaf and my thoughts was nah it's just big pieces of onion in the meatloaf, I never thought anything about it until I saw a bowl of cooked rice in the fridge and I asked my mom what it was and she then told me it was in the meatloaf.  Which mind you the rest of the rice was used for fried rice later on in a day or two later. However now that I think about it, really it was good and something different and there is other amazing ways to have meatloaf and this one wasn't bad whatsoever. Again remember I didn't know this till 2 days later that this was added to the meatloaf.

             I can be honest this could be one of my favorite way to do meatload moving forward but hey we're trying recipes my mom has in her handy dandy cookbook. I never thought rice and meatloaf would be a good mix but hey it was indeed a good mix and I enjoyed it actually. Anyways I am always up to trying new things especially still being in this pandemic still despite things are slowly going back to more of a normal. That is my post for today, it was smaller then normal but at least you get a post and I will talk to you all tomorrow!

End of The Week Updates [03-11-2022]

                Another week has gone by which means time for another end of the week updates. It has been an odd week but we have gotten things done promptly and I think we are on the right track with production of all 3 podcasts. I will explain below:

Website: The Team page is now back and regrets changing it about originally and should remain the same. Amy's audio only has become pretty much active now. Also as you know Power Rangers Podcast had it's share of issues and it is now on it's own dedicated page to Power Rangers Collab page which is the name but currently is hiding under Archives page at this current time till Larry and I decide what's next. 

The After Show With Amy F: This is Amy's full week on her own podcast which has been very interesting say the least. Trying to make sure shes good and comfortable with recording, anaswering any questions, teaching her how to edit the podcast and what not and we honestly ran into some tech issues most of them me not being clear to her enough but that's ok we got it all worked out. Also I sort of screwed up the intro a bit but she witnessed me changing things around for herself and how  I do it and she was shocked how fast it was done for a voice over. I am a simple kind of person. I hate to make things more  complicated as they are. 

Power Rangers Collab: just under 2 weeks and Larry and I will have a plan and idea to when we will be ready to record again and we are waiting on an update from the government weather mask mandates are done or not. kind of one of the reasons why we suddenly held off. We were planning to record yesterday but Larry double booked so I cancelled plus I was going out in the evening anyways. Wasn't going to cancel that for anything in the world. We'll let you guys know the schedule coming up  is going to be like. 

                 That is my updates for the week. Not too much to report minus some tweaks and changes and getting adjusted with a 3rd podcast within this amazing network which I spoke on at length. Look forward to the upcoming week with more great content and continue to grow this thing as we continue on. Anyways have a great weekend and I will talk to you all Monday.

Weight Loss Update [03-10-2022]

              This isn't really an update, it's more of where I stand with losing the weight. I know it's been many, many months, maybe even an year since my last update that I have made. I can officially say that I have gotten down to the 222 - 224 pounds mark with my weight loss. Since then been either up and down or maintaining the weight thus far and I know if I wanna make my goal of 175 weight then I really need to work on losing and fast but it won't lose itself. I need to continue to cut back what I eat, less sugar etc. My goal is to get to 210 or 215 by Summer.  Then I can go on to 200 then 190 but ultimate goal is 190 by end of the year. then that leaves me with 15 pounds more to lose. That is the goal updates and it is hard to lose weight during the winter season and especially being locked up at home most of the time and the same routes for walks don't seem to cut it anymore.

               Anyways that is my small update on my weight loss. I plan on doing one once a month at the most. Not planning to do it too often as right now things are slow but maybe just maybe when things progress I will end up losing a lot more. Also with me returning to being with Eric as of Monday next week, this will prompt me more exercise and more being out and about and maybe this will help me get inspired to get out on bus rides more moving forward. Any who I will talk to you all tomorrow on the end of the week update, have a great rest of your Thursday.

Old Spaghetti Factory Review

                This was going back at least 22 years ago this actually ties into the review I did about Mamma Mia Musical on stage. Because before we went to the show, we went to the Old Spaghetti Factory for dinner and I remember they have or had an old streetcar that you can sit in and I believe we sat in one of those for dinner if I remember correctly. I probably had something simple for dinner like Spaghetti and Meatballs with Garlic bread but all I remember it was soooo good! I've been thinking about this for a while wanting to go back if you think of it I was like 12 or 13 years of age at the time and in 8th grade so talk about major deja vu honestly. Food was awesome I can tell you that and I really enjoyed the food, I'd give it a 10 out of 10 all day long.

                  I know it's still open despite the pandemic which is great as it has become an iconic place to eat in Toronto and still open and running in Toronto so post pandemic I need to make a trip back there and try something different on the menu and it has been a very long time since I was there last with my parents and maybe if theirs a show we go to we could definitely go back but amazing food and a amazing experience when it comes to the Old Spaghetti Factory. I highly recommend it if your in Toronto or visit the city at anytime, especially if you love pasta like I do it is well worth the visit. Anyways that is my small post today, hope you guys enjoyed it and as always, I will talk to you all tomorrow for the end of the week updates.
