Host: Allan Newsome
Running time: 0:42:23

Cort Howell is the son of Hoke Howell who played Dud Wash. Dud was Charlene’s husband who had been trained in gorilla warfare in the Army from which he was honorably discharged as a Private First Class. When Dud returned to Mayberry he still had all of Charlene’s letters, her hair ribbon, and the remainders of a mountain gladiola she’d given him proving he was “the sweetest boy whatever grow’d.”

Cort is one of the producers of the upcoming Mayberry Man movie. He’s working along side his brother Stark who wrote the Mayberry Man script and will be directing and Greg Schell, the son of Ronnie Schell, to bring the movie to the fans.

We hear about growing up around show business, how he came to watch/listen to Two Chairs No Waiting, updates on the movie, and about a behind the scenes report that I think you’ll enjoy.

Bonus: This week’s installment of This Week in Mayberry History by Randy Turner featuring “Rodney Dillard.”
