Welcome to the 900th episode of Two Chairs No Waiting – the podcast where we pull up a chair, sip some iced tea on the front porch, and talk about all things Mayberry.
I’m your host, Allan Newsome – also known around these parts as Floyd the Barber, your friendly neighborhood tribute artist, and a proud resident of the Andy Griffith Show universe.
Can you believe it? Nine hundred episodes! If we were filming in black & white like back in the day, we’d be somewhere around Season 28 by now. (laughs) That’s 32 episodes a year for 900 episodes (28.125)
When I started this little podcast back in October 11, 2008. That’s 17 years, 9 months, and 10 days ago as of the scheduled release date of this episode, I never dreamed I would still be sittin’ here yammerin’ about Goober’s carburetor record (Goober’s 38-minute-12-second carburetor disassembly record), Ernest T. Bass throwin’ rocks through windows, or Opie learnin’ life lessons from Andy. But here we are – 900 episodes strong, thanks to you, the best listeners & viewers in the whole wide world.
This milestone feels like one of those classic Mayberry town moments where everybody shows up to a meetings to celebrate something special. So today, we’re throwing a little party right here on the Internet. There won’t be any fancy speeches – just an expression by me of good ol’ fashioned gratitude and a few reflections from the front porch.
We’ll wrap up this episode with a little Ernest T. Bass trivia courtesy of Paul Mulik. Complete the quote: Ernest T. Bass edition.
