TCNW 748: Otis in Studio

Two Chairs No Waiting
Two Chairs No Waiting

Host: Allan Newsome
Running time: 0:49:40

This is a first for me. An “in studio” guest here on the podcast. Kenneth Junkin, who is a tribute artist for Otis and seen in the Mayberry Man movie is here with me to tell some stories.

Kenneth has been on the show many times but we’ve never been here at Two Chairs HQ to record. He’ll tell us stories about Don Knotts, Betty Lynn, George Lindsey, Sue Ane Langdon (nurse Mary Simpson), Ernest Borgnine, Donna Douglas and more. Kenneth has been involved with Mayberry events since the very early 1990’s and has been performing as Otis since 1995.

I hope you enjoy this conversation and walk away feeling the excitement both Kenneth and I feel when talking about The Andy Griffith Show and those connected to it through either being on or being a fan of the show. We have been so blessed in all the things we’ve been able to do so I hope you can live some of the joy along with us.

Host: Allan Newsome
Running time: 0:37:13

We’re in the middle part of summer and that hot weather is taking the energy out of us all.

What better way to recharge that to test our skill at Mayberry trivia. Not just any trivia either because these questions will give everyone a shot at getting the answer right because they are multiple choice.

So sit back, recharge your batteries, and see how many questions you can get right as we go. I hope the questions bring to mind the fun had when watching episodes of The Andy Griffith Show and they let you experience the joy all over again.

TCNW 746: Thelma Lou Retired to Mayberry

Two Chairs No Waiting
Two Chairs No Waiting

Host: Allan Newsome
Running time: 0:29:49

The Surry Arts Council has been having an auction of items that belonged to Betty Lynn, Mayberry’s own Thelma Lou, in order to raise money for the arts in Mt. Airy, NC. The auction just ended but it brought to mind the impact that Betty had on the city of Mt. Airy during the time she lived in the community.

I found this article about Betty moving to “Mayberry” that I’m sure you’ll enjoy. She was such a wonderful person to be around and is greatly missed but her legacy certainly lives on every time we watch The Andy Griffith Show and also in support of the arts in Mt. Airy.

We play some extra trivia in this episode so stick around for all the fun.

TCNW 745: Mayberry Meet-up 2023 Report

Two Chairs No Waiting
Two Chairs No Waiting

Host: Allan Newsome
Running time: 0:41:23

This past weekend was the Mayberry Meet-up 2023 so I wanted to give y’all a report about what went on and encourage you to join us in the future. So many fun things happen when you’re with fellow Mayberry fans and I want you encourage you to join in with us at some event near you.

This episode may be best consumed as a video version because I show photos and things that I believe you’d enjoy seeing but I think the audio will get you most of the way there so it is, of course, your choice.

I found a video from 10 years ago on “Floyd” singing with Rodney Dillard and the Dillard Band. What an honor that was and I remember it so clearly that I find it hard to believe it was 10 years ago. I think you’ll enjoy it. Floyd sang “House of the Rising Floyd” so it has a Mayberry twist.

We’ll play some trivia, too.

TCNW 744: Mayberry Man Movie now FREE

Two Chairs No Waiting
Two Chairs No Waiting

Host: Allan Newsome
Running time: 0:34:59

On July 1, 2023, the Mayberry Man movie became FREE to stream on several platforms to include Tubi, EncourageTV (YouTube), Amazon Prime, Vudu, Hoopla, Emirates Airlines, and Qatar Airways. There may be other ways you can watch for free but that’s a fairly large selection. Since it’s now free for ALL to see, I feel safe moving forward to talk about the movie and some of what we experienced behind the scenes.

I want to give folks a chance to see it since I’ve been hearing from many people who only recently watched the movie. It’s been really wonderful to get feedback from people that said they hadn’t planned on watching Mayberry Man, or they didn’t think it would be a good movie, and being told him how much they’d enjoyed it. Those are the comments I’ve enjoyed the most.

I’m glad they watched it and gave it a chance.

They went into it with an open mind and then took the time to message me to let me know what they thought about it.

If everyone that may have had negative thoughts about the movie takes a chance and watches it, I think a folks would change their negative thoughts to positive ones. I think they might see what many have seen when we watched Mayberry Man….that Mayberry is not just a place, it’s a state of mind….and this movie does it’s best to capture that feeling.

Stick around and we’ll play some trivia, too.
