I love it when listeners help me find great content for the podcast and this episode is exactly that. Randy Bewer sent me an e-mail with a link to a story from the May 7, 1961 edition of The Milwaukee Sentinel titled, McNear: Barber Who ‘Cuts Up’ and it was gold.
I’ve been involved with The Andy Griffith Show Rerun Watchers Club (TAGSRWC) for going on 30 years and I had never seen nor heard about this article by United Press International writer J.A. Amant. I hope you enjoy this little nugget even half as much as I did when I first read it. It’s kind of like finding a lost bit of history.
You’ll also get to hear a little about the 2014 Mayberry Meet-up held in Mt. Airy in July. A fun time was had by all and I encourage you to get out there and visit with your friends and family….turn them in the Mayberry fans if you can.
