Fan’s had a real treat during Colonel Tim’s Talent Time held during Mayberry Days 2010. Elinor Donahue was a part of the show and on this episode of Two Chairs No Waiting we’ll be hearing from her.  We’ll hear in her own word why she left The Andy Griffith Show after only one season, her favorite episode and the story behind her singing “Away in a Manger” with Andy.  You won’t want to miss this one.

We’re also going to drop in on “Barney” and “Floyd” as we hear a story about Floyd’s glasses.  Big ain’t the word for it.

We had fun last week with Mayberry tribute artist Ken “Otis” Junkin (a.k.a. Big Maude) and I didn’t want the fun to end.

This episode we get to hear a bit more from Ken but this time it’s about his trip to Hollywood back in January 2000 to see Don Knotts get his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.  Episode 97 of Two Chairs No Waiting was devoted to the topic of Don Knotts’ star and you’ll want to go back and give that podcast a listen after you hear Ken’s tale.  Atta boy, Ken!

We’ll also hear a short but fun story by tribute artist Christie McLendon who fills the role quite well of Charlene Darling Wash’s daughter, all growed up, Andylina.  You should remember Andylina. The baby version of her was betrothed to Opie Taylor but some witchery on Andy’s side of the family broke off the betrothal.

For the last several years there has been a Mayberry tribute artist for the character of “Big” Maude Tyler (a.k.a. Ralph Henderson).  What many of you may not know is that Big Maude is portrayed by the same person who performs as the tribute artist for Otis Campbell.  That’s right, Ken Junkin is Otis and Big Maude.  That’s the actor of the man.

We get to hear about Ken’s experience purchasing the shoes need to portray the convict at large and how the ladies in the shoe store reacted to his purchase.

The conversation with Ken was recorded following the Mayberry Comes to Westminster event held in April 2012.  Several of the tribute artist and Mayberry fans were sitting in the lobby of the hotel enjoying some good fellowship with fellow Mayberry fans and I encouraged Ken to tell his story.

Floyd Lawson, the barber in Mayberry, guest hosts this episode of Two Chairs No Waiting which features an interview by Greg Davis of the Priority Talk radio program heard on WXJC 92.5 fm and 850 am in Birmingham, AL.  Allan was invited on the show to talk “Mayberry” and it just happened to be the week leading into the 11th Annual Mayberry Squad Car Nationals held in Graysville, AL.

Folks have been asking for Allan to interview himself but that never seemed right to him so thankfully Greg did the interviewing and “Floyd” is guest hosting so Allan didn’t have to ask himself questions. Floyd host this and the other 2 parts of the interview that will follow over in the coming weeks.  We hope you enjoy the show.

Our thanks to WXJC for allowing us to rebroadcast the interview.
