The season is upon us when folks begin to decorate for the harvest time. You’ll be happy to know you can spread the Mayberry ‘spirit’ during this time of year with your very own Mayberry themed jack-o-lantern. Choose between Barn, Goober, Opie and Floyd as your pumpkin, or just do one of each!

This information is right out of the free Weaver’s Newsletter for October 2023. That and much more can be found in newsletter so please subscribe so you won’t miss out on what the Weaver’s Newsletter has to offer.

We finish up with some Mayberry trivia.

Happy 15th birthday to Two Chairs No Waiting.

On October 11, 2008 the Two Chairs No Waiting Podcast had it’s very first episode published to the world. Back in those days, most people didn’t have high-speed internet so I did my best to keep episode length short and therefore the file size small. That first episode was only 12 minutes 11 seconds long and the file was less than 6 Megs. For reference, episode 755 was over 42 minutes long with a file size of almost 30 Megs.

Some other things that happened in October 2008:
Oct 7 Music, podcast, and video streaming service Spotify is launched
Oct 22 Google Play is launched, the official app store for the Android operating system

There was no video version of the first episode, thank goodness, because I recorded it in my bedroom wearing an USB headphone/microphone that made noises if I moved my head and picked up every sound in the house. The first “live stream” of the podcast didn’t happen until episode 64 in very late December of 2009, over a year after the podcast began.

That first video stream was not great. Those who attended couldn’t hear the music I play to start and end episode nor could they see anything other that a bad quality version of me. I worked to improve things for the video so I skipped a week and by episode 66 those who attended could at least see and hear things though the video quality was still bad. By episode 67, I had vey much improved the video quality and the “live stream” became watchable.

By episode 72 I had upgraded the microphone to the one I currently use and both audio and video quality got us to an acceptable level. Other improvements have been done to the camera, lighting, software and computers over the years and hopefully the host has also improved.

We finish up with some Mayberry trivia. It’s a BIG day!

I was reading the posts about the 2023 Mayberry Days event that just wrapped up this past weekend and came across an essay written by Mayberry fan Rebecca Spears. Rebecca is in the Two Chairs No Waiting chat room most Monday nights as “Lydia” so I was quick to ask her if I could share her words with you all. She did a great job answering the question “what’s Mayberry Days like?” and I think it will help you understand a bit more why I’m always asking folks to consider coming to Mayberry Days or one of the other amazing Mayberry events held each year.

Thank you to Rebecca for allowing me to put voice to the words she penned.

I would like to HEAR from you about your experience(s) at Mayberry Days. I plan to do an overarching Mayberry Days report next episode but I really want to hear your report. Please consider calling in or emailing me an audio or video file about your time in “Mayberry.” You can call 888-684-8415 (2 minutes or less), click the “Leave a Voicemail” link on the right side of TwoChairsNoWaiting.com, or record on your phone and email the file to me.

This episode will wrap up by asking 12 fairly easy Mayberry trivia questions…one of which you really can’t miss.
