I’ve been looking through my files lately to see what treasures I might find. I recently ran across some articles from 1999 from papers and magazines and I thought they might be fun to share with you.
I found a really nice story from May 16, 1999 that ran in The Orlando Sentinel called “Mayberry 101 is a studious look at a classic show.” We’ve hear from Neal Brower many times here on the podcast but this is from back when he first put out his amazing book so we’ll hear what the Sentinel thought about it.
I also found a story from Jan 8, 1999 that was in USA Today Weekend titled “The Bible according to Barney Fife.” This was in the very eary days of the Mayberry Bible study and went a long way in helping spread the word about the study originated by Joey Fann and Brad Grasham.
I also found a couple of other fun things so I hope you enjoy yourself partying like it’s 1999.

The Cruise to Mayberry 14 was on November 2-7, 2019 and it was a great time. I thought I’d give you a recap of some of the fun that happens on the Mayberry Cruise so you might want to go with us on the 15th Mayberry Cruise coming up NOVEMBER 1 – 7, 2020!
It will be a 6 day cruise instead of the 5 days previous Mayberry cruises have been. The reason for that is to celebrate the 60th Anniversary year of The Andy Griffith Show and the 15th Cruise to Mayberry. The special guest is going to be Clint “Leon” Howard! It’s gonna be BIG! Information about the cruise can be found in the links section below.
All that said the special guest for the 2019 Mayberry Cruise was Ronnie Schell from Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C. where he played Duke Slater. Ronnie appeared on The Andy Griffith Show two times and so many other TV shows and movies I can’t list them. Ronnie was joined by an entire crew of Mayberry tribute artists to add that Mayberry feel we had the bluegrass band Cane Mill Road!

I’ve been going through my archives here at Two Chairs headquarters and finding things I believe you’d like to hear about. The one that stuck out to me this week was an article by David Hamburg that appeared in the March/April 1996 issue of the “Baldwin County Current“. The article is titled “Will the Real George Lindsey Please Stand Up?”
Over the years I think I’ve done more episodes of this podcast about George “Goober” Lindsey than any other cast member. He was featured on the very first episode of Two Chairs and I think the reason he’s been the focus so often it because I was lucky enough to get to know him a bit better than some of the other cast members.
