Host: Allan Newsome
Running time: 0:32:49

While on a recent trip to meetup with Mayberry friends in Danville, Indiana a somewhat Mayberry event occurred. Much like in the episode “Barney and the Cave Rescue” something happened to Jan, my wife. Thankfully, she has agreed to be join us on the podcast and tell the story of her trauma and describe how she got out of the situation without finding a cave opening to crawl through.

We’ll also play some Mayberry trivia that we can have fun with and I believe you’ll enjoy.

TCNW 855: Letter to Opie

Two Chairs No Waiting
Two Chairs No Waiting

Host: Allan Newsome
Running time: 0:30:00

During the Mayberry Meetup 2025, attendee Julie Sipe was inspired by the events and the things she was experiencing to sit down and write a letter to Opie. She wrote it as if Opie were a real person who had been among those who had impacted her life in positive ways. She told of lessons she had learned from watching Opie and his dad deal with bullies and spoiled kids, help a friend that perhaps didn’t have as good a life as she might have, love their neighbor as themselves, take responsibility and stand on their own two legs, and so many impacts in her life.

On Sunday morning of the Meetup, we gathered for a Mayberry Bible study lesson and as part of it she shared this “Letter to Opie” with those able to attend. It was touching and I reached out to see if she were share it with all of us here on the podcast. Thank you, Julie, for being willing to share this wonderful piece of yourself with your Mayberry family. I think I can safely say that what you’re going to hear will ring true with the vast majority of fans.

To round things out, we’ll have some fun trying to answer a few Mayberry trivia questions.
