Cool stuff...as long as it isn't Flex Wheeler's company doing it (where you pay 20 bucks and then it freezes every ten seconds) I am happy.

We've had few problems since our 2nd webcast of last year...Travis and the boys at Chapman Media Group have done an excellent job, and updated their equipment to ensure the best case senario in bringing the BB fans from around the world as many IFBB shows as we can...

Yeah, bodybuilding.com always does a great job with these webcasts, especially considering the fact that it is free. Keep up the good work.

Thank you BB.com, can we add this to the positive things in BB thread?

Definitely a step in the right direction, after all, if we can't get bodybuilding on free to air TV, then the internet is the logical progression. Good work Bob.

The chapman group have really uped the ante with the fit show. It streams really fast now and the filming is awesome. It is my favorite part of bb.com.

Cicherillo is best in the interview situations, pre-show interviews, when he does the personal BB in-gym portraits are also great.

Should tighten up his physique critique a bit IMO, seems a little to worried about calling out the weak spots on the performers.

All in all, he's got great talent for doing TV, great news to see him do the webcast, also good to see Ray in the mix, he doesn't hold back like Cicherillo.
