Yesterday Was A Huge Success!

              Yesterday's get together was a huge success! We had a lot of fun yesterday. We took care of him signing all the podcast notes from the past 2 years worth of work and it felt like it was a ton of work honestly. We had lunch and I can tell you all we both had Taco Bell. There was a ton of Power Rangers Talk and what we both heard with certain seasons which honestly feeds us more ideas for one off podcasts. Yes the discussion for what will happen to our collab was brought up and that is most definitely on our mind right now. Still a lot to discuss and do before 2024 hits but we're discussing things. The fact we were in person discussing things it was better then just on Messenger or Skype call to talk about things in person. I think it is always better to discuss things in person then online. It is a different feeling to be quite honest. Not surprised him bringing up the collab and Larry made a joke about all the paper and one of the facilitators from our program back in College which would make a great blog post Monday how him and I first met and definitely will do a post.         

        However we are as bad as we have used a ton of paper and this project has taken up a lot of resources and paper is one of them. Anyways I also told Larry that I peeked at our original notes from our first season that we did back then and how far we have gone with this entire podcast. Was neat to come back to those notes and just talk about it especially with our anniversary is a month away as of Monday so we discussed and talked about it. I gave him some information on the bus route and how it has changed since he has been over this way to the studio which is now little over 2 years now. Either way we have a good time, like I always say, good time, with good company. I am looking forward to his return to the studio in June but still work to do to get ready for his return and I mean making sure the studio is spot on ready for his return. Also that we have Super Samurai finished up and of those two seasons are up and released before we record our 4th Anniversary podcast. Anyways that is my post for today, hope you enjoyed this post and enjoy the rest of your weekend and I will talk to you all Monday!

End of The Week Updates! [04-29-2022]

               Well another week of struggles and drama continues. I was having a lot of doubts with ChrisBOnTheWeb but somehow made it through this week of dramaticness. Anyways here are the updates:

Entertainment Man Podcast: I have recorded two episodes one for Sunday and one for next Thursday as I will be busy with Power Rangers Collab preparing the next collab and editing the Samurai season that is recorded but hasn't been edited so I am ahead of schedule. 

Chaoticness of ChrisBOnTheWeb: With Entertainment Man Podcast quieter now I have been able to try and get things back under control, including getting things back on track with content and working on Entertainment Man Podcast episodes. I think I got things back under control and got two Mods that are helping watching over things for us. 

Website: With the Survivor Podcast out of the picture now week and a half later almost, I had to remove things off the website, Team Page is removed, Partners Page has been removed off the site and the 3rd podcast we had is now completely removed as I said before. So any audio only has been deleted all together. Support chat has been added back and removed days later and turned into a normal everyday chat as it was used but also abused so it is a normal chat and our Moderators continue to monitor it but it is launching soon!

Power Rangers Collab: Will be working on Super Samurai as of Sunday and hoping to get it done by mid week then typing it for the next 5 days and sent out by May 13th to Larry for the last time which this may be the last one via Skype hopefully ever as we return to Studio still aiming for June of this year. More coming on that later. 

               Anyways that is the updates for the week, I will be back tomorrow with a post about my time with Larry and will be posting up pictures tomorrow as I posted enough this morning with updates and this afternoon at 12:15 pm EST I will be posting some pics up of the craziness of the studio late last night so stay tuned for that updates as well and I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Going To See Larry For The First Time in 2 Years In Person!

              For the first time in 2 years, I will get to see Larry in person for Lunch at the mall in person, in the flesh! I am both excited and nervous to see him as I was feeling the same way when I saw Terry and Eric for the first time but it is all normal and probably spend about at least 2 hours with him see how we feel being near each other and I know there will be snow talk going on and we will definitely be taking pictures of the two of us together! This is only the start for both of us and I am sure sometime in May we may end up doing lunch again for a second time perhaps before we have his big return to the ChrisBOnTheWeb Studios which is still slated to happen yet as cases were high on the weekend but they forgot to report em so I can see why it went up. The other side besides being nervous is how excited I am to see him as it has been 2 years which honestly feels like 5 years as I feel like I've aged 5 years since seeing him. 

              Be on the lookout on all social media platforms for videos, pictures and what not with me seeing him in person, I know you guys are going to be sooo hyped up for me seeing him again! I can officially say this "THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN" yes like the song title which mind you is a great tune honestly and a favorite of mine! Do not worry, we will be wearing our masks when not eating to ensure the mask as we wanna stay safe and not get sick whatsoever. Also when together social distance if we can and we're both vaccinated and should be fine. I have been seeing friends for nearly a year now after a year of no friends so I need to just keep doing what I'm doing like I do with Eric and the little short guy aka Terry and I know we will just be fine. What I have decided is Satuday I will do a follow-up blog to how it went with some photos and what not so be on the lookout for a bonus blog this weekend once again. Anyways that is my post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Doing My Own Thing With ChrisBOnTheWeb!

            To wrap up this set of posts with all the craziness going on with the website, I have come to conclusion that it is best I do my own thing with ChrisBOnTheWeb As you all know I still got Entertainment Man Podcast and Power Rangers Collab and those are the podcasts I wanna grow and continue on with. Yes Larry is on the 2nd one and you know I wouldn't stop Power Rangers Collab for anything in the world. Remember: Going on 4 years in June with that podcast which it has been an incredible journey to be quite honest as it's grown and so loved by many of you guys. Now schedule wise you are probably wondering what the timetable is like now that the other podcast is now out of the picture? Here is the updated schedule:

Sundays: 1 pm EST- Entertainment Man Podcast (YouTube + Audio ONLY)

Mondays - Fridays: 11 am EST: Daily Blog posts (ChrisBOnTheWeb.com)

Thursdays: 1 pm EST- Entertainment Man Podcast, Every 2nd Week (Audio ONLY)

Saturdays: 11 am EST- Sporadic Blog posts on Saturdays from time to time. (ChrisBOnTheWeb.com)

               There is the schedule and yes it's simple and easy to follow. I think now with things simplfied it will be less stress on me perhaps. Now you can also find the actual schedule if you forget what the schedule is for both Content and Events you can go to  the Schedule Page or https://www.chrisbontheweb.com/p/schedule.html to view the entire schedule as it is now fully updated. Anyways that is my post for today and I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Took Time To Evaluate Things!

                 I know you guys are tired of me talking about the changes but over the weekend, I looked at the board with no content schedule whatsoever. Blog section of my board was clear till Saturday morning when I filled it with the topics and it tells a little bit of a story, its like a storyboard that will string to the 3rd and final part which will be tomorrow then I move on with things.  Least you can say it's content! Anyways this weekend I took time to evaluate the schedule for ChrisBOnTheWeb and the content and sometimes that is something you need to do is wipe out the entire schedule out and just start over and that is what I did. I cleared the board on the two ends of the board, Content Schedule and Blog schedule. I switched and have one section for the schedule of content as it is a ton easier for me to handle the entire schedule for me.

              They also say change is a good thing and in this case it's definite change that was needed as now I feel more at peace with myself. Now I know that ChrisBOnTheWeb is a solo project or endeavor which I will get more into tomorrow on the blog. Even redoing the entire board Saturday morning was worth it. It was worth changing around and actually having more space then I did with it split into 3 sections. I got more room then ever to write ideas down and jot down notes or reminders that I need to do this or do that so it helps a lot to have that extra space without getting a second or even a bigger board to have more space on. So taking time to re-evaluate things helps and I wish I did this sooner and things could of been different but cannot change the past and just move on and move forward with things. That is my post for today, hope you guys have a great rest of your Tuesday and I will talk to you all tomorrow!

What Happened To The Survivor Podcast?

               I know this is a well asked thing since Thursday with all the numerous amount of changes this website has seen in a very, very long time since Everything About Reality TV & The CBOTW Show and my old menu bar system I had on this site which was terrible quite frankly as the responsiveness to it was quite poor but this one works like a charm. Anyways I am rambling and you guys deserve to know and I will not go into a full detail but the host of the Survivor podcast decided to quit in the middle into the latter half of the season which I was quite disappointed as I put a lot of work week to week on it. 

                 I took it as a quit and I moved on to what I am doing which is Entertainment Man Podcast and Power Rangers Collab and now this is my website entirely which I will get into on Wednesday morning that I wanna do my own thing now, I will talk about my goals changes for the rest of this year, etc. Anyways I changed everything over as you can see it was moved to the Archives and now has been removed from archives day or 2 later and any physical copy of the podcast is now gone from my archive dot org account that is linked to this website so there is 0 physical copies of the podcast left. I need to stop being so trusting to people and I think me going solo is the best move for me moving forward. I can say this, I am going to be careful as everytime I help someone, I get burnt everytime. But anyways that is my post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow morning, I just wanted to let you know why all the changes as I wanted to be open and honest with you guys but I will speak to you all tomorrow.

End of The Week Updates- Part 2 [04-23-2022]

                      Here we are part 2 of the end of the week updates. As promised I am to continue on and plus this gives a bit extra content for you guys in the process that needs to be mentioned with all the kafluffel with ChrisBOnTheWeb. 

Website: I updated the website and removed the following: Team Page, Partners has been removed. Schedule Page has been updated with the current schedule for the content and events for ChrisBOnTheWeb. The After Show With Amy F has been moved to Archives pending a removal from ChrisBOnTheWeb.com permantly removed off the website which may take a few weeks for me to decide and if you don't hear anything about it then I left it on the website all together but highly think I will be moving it. Support chat is back and a friend of mine is always in there if I am not in there whatsoever under CBOTWMod name which was still active on there regardless. 

Social Media: I have removed all post pertaining to the said podcast I said above of the hashtag and all posts have been removed and I don't care what anyone says cause that podcast is done for no apparent reason and I was going to post it regardless but they misconstruded what I said so it is what it is, I'm moving on to focus on with my content, Entertainment Man Podcast and the collab.

Power Rangers Collab: With me moving back on my own now fully next week I push into Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast more and I will have a  ton more time to work and focus on it now with one podcast down. So I am excited to work on Super Samurai and will get it done in time for late May so you guys can hear it. I also am working on this week the 4th anniversary podcast coming up with some cool ideas. 

Return To Studio: Next week starts a trial run of me seeing Larry in person and trust me you will see pictures of him and I together, will be for a lunch and see how we feel together again for the first time in just over 2 years since we have seen each other. This means our goal to him returning to studio in time for our 4th Anniversary Podcast is on track as long as cases do not rise and the mask mandate doesn't come back then we are golden for a return! 

                That is my final set of updates for the weekend, enjoy the rest of this weekend, get out for some fresh air, I know I will be and I will talk to you guys on Monday for the start of what will be another busy week for me and ChrisBOnTheWeb.

End of The Week Updates [04-22-2022]

                    Another week has come to an end and has been a dramatic one for us here at ChrisBOnTheWeb. We have lost another Community Manager and will be the last community manager we ever have in this community. We just cannot find anyone that stay longer then a week to a few weeks only. It is utterly ridiculous to be quite honest. 

Facebook: Our group community has suffered a lot of problems, lot of people that have gotten banned cause of stupid drama. I ended up shutting it down when things were going really great for us on the group and it was doing just fine. We are now on a Fan Page and not planning to move anywhere else cause we do not wanna move anywhere else. We have almost half the people we had in the group but I think people are not happy with what is going on and I cannot blame em to be quite honest.  

Entertainment Man Podcast: This week, I have worked on a ton of topics for this podcast to prepare for future episodes and trying to empty out the list so I do not have to do much to do later on. Wednesday I also recorded my first video podcast in 2 months and have schedule that to post this weekend and may premiere it since it is the first podcast back on YouTube since February and yes I remember exactly when as it was with Terry that was the last known podcast. 

Power Rangers Collab: Not sure what's going on with it, with all the drama, I just put it to the wayside for right now and hope to get back into it Tuesday the day after my day off from ChrisBOnTheWeb. I know I can get it done by end of the week and typed by the end of the Big Brother Canada Finale week and sent out to Larry by the Friday or the Monday after BBCAN10 wraps up production. Mid May or just after mid May is the goal for us to record. As I know when I finish Super Samurai, I will be starting Megaforce right off the bat. This week, I also wrote the 4 year anniversary podcast notes and will be sending em to Larry in case as we're still pending his return to studio.  

                  That is my post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow morning for Part 2 of the End of The Week Updates as there are more updates to make with all the changes with the site and content and what not. Really not in a good place right now with all the changes my mind is going a mile a minute and didn't sleep half the night cause of the stress. Anyways I will talk to you all tomorrow morning at 11 am EST for a special 2nd part to this post.

Did a Trip Into Toronto Today for The First Time In Almost 3 Years!

               It has been almost 3 years now since I was in Toronto and this week 2 days ago, I got the chance and opportunity to actually go into Toronto. Now Eric and I didn't get to step off the bus whatsoever as time was very limited for the both of us to get back to meet up with the Terry but most definitely next time we will make sure we leave early enough. I will get to that at the end of the post. The route was interesting in the way of route and even catered to the college I went to almost 12 years ago which is scary and of course the university here as well since it serves both as their on the same property and campus together.  Then straight down to one of the big roads and west. On the way made stop at a Go Station on the way I believe it was only one station then across. It weaved in and out was an incredible route. It took us long enough to get there hour and a half but worth it. 

             I am so glad that they have a way to connect to TTC (Toronto Transit Commission) as they didn't really have any connection via our transit and theirs which is totally nice. Next time we would have to leave early enough and spend sometime out there at Scarborough Town Centre area which will be coming later in the spring when it gets warmer and also a trip to downtown with Eric so I can say I've been to Toronto myself but for now I am staying put and next week is another adventure back into Scarborough via the 900 route then down to Guildwood and home. That is my little storytime for this week what I did and where I went this week and this is the start for me returning to Toronto hopefully soon as I wanna eventually go to the Blue Jays/Cubs game at Rogers Centre this summer.

Goals To Accomplish This Week

                With the out of the norm this week with this community being up in arms chaotic and with me taking some time away to reflect and try to figure things out but I am working on smaller things this week and the reason for this post is I have some goals that I'd like to setout and get done this week:

1) Write some more episodes. not sure how many but as many as I really want to write. As long as I write some that is what really does matter and this would be more for Entertainment Man Podcast moving forward when I do not have any pocasts to record.

2) Read Chidi's book so I can get a following interview going in late May. This has been on my list of things to do and get done and if Larry and I need to do an additional recording for the collab in the fall so be it but this is more important right now. 

3) Power Rangers Collab- Samurai Podcast: This is on that long list of it must be edited and its a thorn in my side to edit cause of the bloody length of the podcast cause of a certain co-host goes on and on and on (LOL) Yes I'm calling you out, Larry! hahahaha! But hey it makes it what the podcast is! 

                Those are my goals and no pressure just an easier week after Easter and hope this helps with my mental health and gets me back in a better place  then I have been in lately and we will see when I write Monday's post but we still have tomorrow and the end of the week to do and who knows what it will be. But that is my post for today and I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Taking a Bit of a Step Back This Week

                  Not been in the right place mentally. Fighting with friends, not being respected for wanting space on myself and not listening to drama on the Facebook group. I have done away with the Group and back on the fan page and reached out to people about rejoining via the fan page but we'll see. I hate to come to this point of success on a page then having to shut it down cause of non sense drama.  Starting to wonder if I should of just stayed on the fan page in 2020 and not moved and just ban off the trouble makers. This is my own fault for no sticking to it cause I was well over 60 likes on that page too. I am the one to blame for this mess and I should of just stuck it out on the fan page, the original fan page and not give so many chances. However that is not the point of the post and when I need space, I need space. People need to respect that and I am proud of myself for wanting space but people need to be able to give it to me and when I'm ready I will answer. 

                  Right now I am not all there right now in the head. My head is not all there and maybe it is best I take a step back and just take it easy on myself. I know I promised to be on The After Show With Amy F but maybe it is best I just postpone till Finale and hoping by then things start to settle down for me and get better. I know Amy is going to see this before I have a chance to talk about this but this is just me thinking what is best for me at this moment. I  have even considered not recording an episode for Sunday and take some time away from the podcast which you will still get an episode Thursday but nothing on Sunday, that is my original thoughts at the moment but the show must go on and I promised to be back on YouTube this weekend and I will. Just taking a bit of a backroad this week and NOT work on Power Rangers Collab for the next episode. What I have planned is to take care of my mental health and write some new episodes for my podcast. If I am up to it, edit Samurai which is very  miminal stress on me. So that is what is going on and my post for today, I will be back tomorrow with another random post as I really do not have anything pre scheduled or planned so I will talk to you all tomorrow.
