Two Chairs No Waiting

It’s just after Christmas and many folks out there have gotten new computers, iPods, iPads, or other things that allow them to join us here in Mayberry and Two Chairs No Waiting.  As such, I thought it might be a good time to go over 2010’s top downloaded/listened to episodes of the podcast.

Hopefully this list will help new listeners find episodes they might want to go back and give a listen and remind those that have been listening for a while of some of the fun we’ve had over the last year.

Enjoy the show and welcome to Mayberry if you’re just finding the show.

Two Chairs No Waiting

Mayberry Christmas to all!  Lets have some fun and sing along with “Barney the Mayberry Deputy” (Sung to the tune “Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer). The lyrics are below.

We also get to hear Miss Ellie sing Away in a Manger for the close of the podcast.  I hope this episode brings to mind the joy of the Christmas season no matter what time of year you happen to be listening.

Barney the Mayberry Deputy
(Sung to the tune “Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer”)

Barney the Mayberry deputy,
Had a very shiny badge,
And when he cleaned his bullet,
He would use liquid Pledge.

All of the other deputies,
Tried but it just wasn’t the same,
They couldn’t match ole Barney,
Tiger Fife was his name.

Then one foggy Christmas Eve,
Andy came to say,
Barney with your build so right,
Won’t you be our Santa tonight.

My how the folks there loved him,
Andy, Opie, Ellie and Aunt Bee,
Barney the Mayberry Deputy,
You’ll go down in History!!!

Two Chairs No Waiting

We learned about the dingo dog and the Carolina Dog in the last episode of Two Chairs No Waiting so I thought we’d continue the topic by visiting a quote by Barney from “Dogs, Dogs, Dogs (episode #93).  One of the best scenes in that episode is with Andy, Opie, and Barney talking about those dogs being out in a thunder storm.

Of course we learn that dogs don’t get struck by lightning because they’re low to the ground, but what about giraffes? Walking around with their heads in the air…looking out for number one.  Does that really happen?

We also have a special Christmas poem from TAGS fan Ben Sandifer of GMS Productions in Macon, GA.  Ben is a member of the “Lots of Luck to You and Yours” chapter of The Andy Griffith Show Rerun Watchers Club.

We learn some strange facts about the dingo dog, thanks to Floyd the barber mentioning dingos in 6th season episode “Aunt Bee Learns to Drive” (#180). Did you know the dingo was indigenous to Australia? Did you know that a breed called the “Carolina Dog” is also known as “American Dingo?”

Wow, the things you can learn when talking about The Andy Griffith Show. Listen to this episode to have fun and even learn a little.

We also have some listener feedback.
