Two Chairs No Waiting
Host: Allan Newsome
Running time: 0:17:07
Wow…another Mayberry Days event has come and gone. The memories made will bring a smile to my face for many weeks and months to come. As part of those memories, we’re going to see/hear a “special report” from Kevin Burke.
For those that may not be aware, Kevin Burke is the host of the Burke on Mayberry podcast and was the FIRST Mayberry podcaster! At the time of this recording, Kevin has done 126 episode of Burke on Mayberry and he was gracious enough to offer up this video report from Andy Griffith’s childhood home.
Kevin and his lovely wife had reservations to stay at Andy’s home place the weekend of Mayberry Days 2015. They had waited almost 9 years from the time the reservations were made until there was an opening for them.
I don’t usually encourage you to watch the video version of Two Chairs but this is one episode you’ll want to actually watch the video.

When my husband and I were at Mayberry Days last year, we sat by Kevin and Shelly Burke during the trivia contest, and they told us they would be staying in Andy’s house this year. So I told Kevin last weekend on Facebook that I was hoping he would take lots of pictures and post them. But this video is even better! I appreciate Kevin providing this so we could all see it. Now, I have one question, and I don’t know if you can answer it or perhaps Kevin can, and it’s this: Somewhere I had read that Andy said his bedroom was a very small, narrow room that only had space for a twin bed. The impression was that it was not much bigger than a closet. In his video, Kevin showed such a room that had a rollaway bed in it, and I wondered if that was Andy’s bedroom. However, he also showed two other, normal-sized bedrooms. I know that Andy was an only child, and I believe just he and his parents lived in the house. That being the case, why would Andy not have been able to use one of the two normal-sized bedrooms for his own instead of the tiny one? Do you have any information on that, Allan?
