Two Chairs No WaitingJack Dodson is best remembered for is role of Howard Sprague on the Andy Griffith Show but he was more than that.  He liked camping, was a fan of boxing, Spencer Tracy movies, and he attended Carnegie Tech (Carnegie Mellon University as it’s known now).

I got a wonderful surprise back in 2006 when Scott Helmandollar wrote to me and shared a few photos his father had taken back in the mid-1950′s.

Let’s visit our Mayberry friends and learn more about Jack Dodson and Howard Sprague.

Follow me on Twitter if you use twitter. I’ve been posting Mayberry things there as another way to let folks know about The Andy Griffith Show.

Two Chairs No WaitingLet’s kick off the fourth year of podcasting here at Two Chairs No Waiting with a little look back to the way things were at the beginning.  Episode #1 was released on October 11, 2008 so the release date of #157 is exactly 3 years, and 156 episodes later.

Things have changed a little over the years (like the audio quality and having a video version of the show) but I hope the Mayberry spirit continues to flow though from me to you.

I have enjoyed bringing you a little under 41 hours (40.8 hours) of Two Chairs No Waiting over the past 3 years.  Thank you to all of you for listening and supporting the show.

The Andy Griffith Show and Mayberry are alive and doing well.  Thank you all for keeping the Mayberry spirit alive.
