TCNW 710: In Defense of Mayberry

Two Chairs No Waiting
Two Chairs No Waiting

Host: Allan Newsome
Running time: 0:28:14

A couple of weeks ago, my friend and fellow Mayberry tribute artist, Eric Lowry posted a wonderful article called “In Defense of Mayberry.” It was so well written and it captured the way I feel about The Andy Griffith Show and Mayberry in such a deep way that I asked if I could share it on the podcast. Eric was kind enough to allow me to do so. You are in for a treat.

Eric tells us why he, a grown man able to go on dates (if he wasn’t married) and everything, dresses up like a character from The Andy Griffith Show and appears at events. His thoughts reflect my own in a way that I wouldn’t have been able to put into words.

We’ll play a little trivia and then hear from SpiritWalker with his wonderful Returning to Mayberry report.

I just returned from the Cruise to Mayberry 2022 and what fun we had! I hope you might join us in 2023 for the cruise and to get you thinking we’ll go over the trivia questions from this years cruise. I recorded the trivia section of this weeks show during the cruise in my cabin and my wonderful wife Jan joined me. Okay, she made comments in the background but I’ll take what I can.

TCNW 708: We Want a Ghost Story

Two Chairs No Waiting
Two Chairs No Waiting

Host: Allan Newsome
Running time: 0:46:45

It’s the spooky time of the year and it’s a tradition here on Two Chairs to tell a spooky story or two around the campfire.

I have a couple of shorter stories that I think you’ll enjoy and then, in the same feeling as “The Golden Arm,” I found “Chief Swanee’s Gold” written by Craig Dominey and Lanny Gilbert on “The Moonlit Road” podcast/website. Craig granted me permission to share that story with you and it will be followed by a version of The Golden Arm folktale.

The Golden Arm was most famously told by Mark Twain and also used by him to instruct others in how to tell a story. In 2015, I first presented the Mark Twain version of the story in episode #349. This being the spooky time of the year, I thought it was time to tell another version of the story.

This episode is spooky so be sure to keep those who might not sleep well, like Barney and Gomer, away from this episode I wouldn’t want to have anyone staring darkness trying to spot someone looking for their gold or their golden arm.

Host: Allan Newsome
Running time: 0:43:01

Last episode we heard from some of you about your Mayberry Days 2022 experiences. I thought I’d tell you my story from “Floyd” perspective. Mayberry Days is always special and the the things I experience always leave a mark on me. The wonderful people I meet as well as working with my fellow tribute artist always results in memories that I cherish.

As I head into my 14th year of podcasting, the memories of events and fellow fans always give me something to think back upon and they make Mayberry “real” in my life.

We’ll play some trivia and hear from SpiritWalker with his Returning to Mayberry report.

Running time: 0:38:54

Mayberry Day 2022 has come and gone but the memories created during the event will live long in the hearts of those who were able to attend. We’ll hear reports from a few folks about their experience during Mayberry Days and we’ll even get one video report this week. If you missed last weeks podcast, we had a great report from a listener in that episode, too so go back and check it out.

This episode of Two Chairs marks the 14 year mark for the podcast. It began on October 11, 2008 and now, 706 episodes later, we still have fun talking Mayberry. What a blessing this 62 year old television series has been in my life.

We’ll hear from SpiritWalker with his Returning to Mayberry report.
