Thank you and help!

I'd like to quickly take the opportunity to send a HUGE thanks to everyone who has even glanced upon this blog so far. It's only a few weeks old but I love having the opportunity to ramble about stuff that interests me. If you have read any number of my posts; thank you. If you have shared or recommended my page to anyone; thanks! If you have favourited or retweeted a tweet (here's looking at you Mick Foley!) then once again thanks! Now that's out of the way I have a couple of ideas related to this blog and other projects and I would really appreciate anyone who could help...

First of all I've been thinking a lot about the topics I post about here at Norris Approved. Originally Norris Approved was going to be about music exclusively but I decided to write about other passions in my life including TV, movies and pro wrestling. Some people will be interested in what I have to say about WWE while others will be far more interested what I think about the latest rock albums.

That's not to say that I'm not willing to check out other stuff to write about. That's where you all come in. 'Norris Approved?' (title subject to change) is going to be a weekly post where I watch/listen to/read something I've had little or no experience of before and at the end of the post I'll decide whether it is 'Norris Approved' or not. This is where you come in. Is there a TV programme or movie you love or hate? Is there a band or album you worship or despise? Maybe there's a book you've read to death or absolutely loathed. All you have to do is send me your suggestions and I'll pick the best of the bunch. There are three ways you can suggest something for 'Norris Approved?':

1. Comment in the box below
2. Leave a message on the Norris Approved Facebook Page
3. Tweet me @NorrisApproved3

I'll post the first edition once I've picked something and had time to read/listen/watch whatever I've chosen. So PLEASE get suggesting...

My second request is something not entirely related to the blog but it seemed a good platform to reach out for help...

My good friend Shaune Kimberley and I have discussed for a while now starting our own podcast. He's coming up to visit in a couple of weeks and we are looking to record a pilot of sorts to see how that may look. With Kimbo and I both wrestling fans we no doubt will have wrestling as part of any podcast we do. An idea I have had for the podcast would involve help from someone with ZERO knowledge of wrestling.

We need an open-minded person (preferably with a sense of humour) who has NEVER watched wrestling in their entire lives. Just to be clear it needs to be someone who has no opinion on wrestling either other than curiosity. Someone who thinks it is 'fake' and 'shit' despite never watching it will be of no use. Said person can be any age, sex, race etc. All that's needed is access to Skype (in order to take part in the podcast) and access to WWE programming (Sky Sports). If the podcast is ongoing we'll get you as a regular contributor as you watch WWE every week. If this sounds like something you (or someone you know) would be perfect for then please DM me @NorrisApproved3 or email me at mikenorris339@live.com. Alternatively if you think you can help us with our podcast adventure in ANY way please do the same.

Well that's it for now. Thanks again for reading and if you can help with either of my ideas PLEASE get in touch,

Mike
