TCNW 726: Singing in Mayberry Part 2

Two Chairs No Waiting
Two Chairs No Waiting

Host: Allan Newsome
Running time: 0:26:41

The videos I’ve been going through had more singing in Mayberry so I wanted to do a part 2 to share more special memories.

Special singers from Mayberry this week will be Maggie Peterson (Charlene) and she is joined on stage by Ernest T. Bass (Howard Morris). These performances were during the 2002 Col. Tim’s at Mayberry Days as were the performances featured last week by Betty and Howard. I had to do a bit of research to find the year but I was able to do it thanks to my wife, Jan, having ‘scrap booked’ wonderful albums that contained the images.

We’ll wrap up with some trivia provided by listener/viewer Paul Mulik. Thanks to Paul for his fun questions.

TCNW 725: Singing in Mayberry

Two Chairs No Waiting
Two Chairs No Waiting

Host: Allan Newsome
Running time: 0:44:39

I’ve been going through some old video tapes and finding treasures that I’m pretty sure you’ll never have seen unless you were at Mayberry events back in the late 1990’s and early 2000’s. Because large sections of this podcast episode were taken from video tapes, I would suggest that you may want to watch the video version of this show. It will be fun to hear but seeing and hearing might be even better.

Special singers from Mayberry will be Thelma Lou (Betty Lynn) and Ernest T. Bass (Howard Morris). These performances were during Col. Tim’s at Mayberry Days but I don’t have a record of the year. I’m pretty sure it was in the early 2000’s because you’ll see my son, Adam, featured fairly often because his mom was doing the filming. Seems moms might like seeing their boys reaction more than focusing on Howard Morris….at least at times.

A less special singing performance will be by “Floyd.” Okay, he/I don’t really sing but I do perform with great friend of Mayberry, The VW Boys, in Kingsport, TN back in 1999.

We’ll play some trivia and ask you a question if you stick around until the end.

TCNW 648: Inside Ernest T. Bass

Two Chairs No Waiting
Two Chairs No Waiting

Host: Allan Newsome
Running time: 0:33:38

Let’s go inside Mayberry and talk about Ernest T. Bass. It was no trouble finding information about his because he’s a pestilence and a pestilence will find you.

This information is from a long out of print book called Inside Mayberry by Dan Harrison and Bill Habeeb. We’ll hear from Howard Morris and others about how the character of Ernest T. came to be a citizen of Mayberry, NC.

Running time: 0:28:19

This is the sixth episode of Two Chairs focusing on the 1998 Mayberry gathering in Kingsport, TN. If you have missed any of the previous episodes you should go back and check them out by using the link in the notes below.

The event was called “I Remember Mayberry” and in this episode we hear from Maggie Peterson as “Charlene Darling.” Last episode we were about to hear Maggie singing things that weren’t on The Andy Griffith Show but songs she very much enjoys singing. This time, we hear from her as Charlene and she’s singing with her brothers, all of the original Dillards (Rodney, Doug, Dean and Mitch). She’s also joined by Elinor “Ellie Walker” Donahue and Howard “Ernest T” Morris on the stage. This was the final performance of the 1998 Kingsport event.

I want to once again encourage you to watch the video version of this episode because you’ll be able to see Maggie rather thank hear her, only. While you’re watching, be sure to like and subscribe to my YouTube channel.

We’ll try a few trivia questions for some fun.

This is an episode I would encourage you to watch the video version because you’ll be able to see what’s happening on the stage in Kingsport, TN back in 1998. There were several stars from The Andy Griffith Show present for this event but we’re focusing on Howard “Ernest T” Morris in this episode. David “The Mayberry Deputy” Browning can be heard on stage with Howard Morris and later on you’ll hear Maggie “Charlene” Peterson as well.

It was amazing how Mr. Morris could control the crowd and bring them to their feet by just saying “It’s me, it’s me, it’s Ernest T.” Folks would stand, clap, and cheer for him and about when they sat again he would throw out another line that would once again get the crowd going.

We’ll play a little trivia, only 5 questions, but this time they’re a little harder.

TCNW 494: Hal Smith, Howard Morris, and more

Two Chairs No Waiting

Two Chairs No Waiting

Host: Allan Newsome
Running time: 0:22:29

We talked about Hal Smith last time here on Two Chairs and that inspired feedback from several of our Mayberry friends so we’ll be hearing that on this episode. We’ll also be getting a great report from Randy Turner on Mayberry’s own “Howard Morris.”

Howard was much more than Ernest T. Bass and I want to thank Randy for pushing fans to look at more of Mr. Morris’ amazing work. There’s a link in the note for an amazing skit that Howard was part of back in April 1954 on “Your Show of Shows” with Sid Caesar and Carl Reiner. If you have time, you really should watch.

Friends, go out there this week and tell your family you love them and call up an old friend or two. Spread the Mayberry spirit all around because the world certainly needs it.

Running time: 0:35:12

This being Memorial Day here in the United States, I thought it would be a fitting time to talk about one of the veterans that were cast members of The Andy Griffith Show. Howard Morris was on my mind because he passed away on 21 May 2005 and lucky for me a couple of articles about Mr. Morris from 1955 were recently passed to me. You’re going to enjoy learning more about the man who later became Ernest T. Bass.

I also have some great feedback from listeners/viewers so we have a BIG show to enjoy.

Bonus:  This week’s installment of This Week in Mayberry History by Randy Turner featuring Don Knotts.
