Let’s have a fun time visiting and celebrating the 200th episode of Two Chairs No Waiting! What better way to have fun than to talk about Ernest T. Bass and his song “Old Aunt Maria.”
We find out where the words to the song came from and what the original name was before it became “Old Aunt Maria.”
Thank you all for being part of 200 episodes of the podcast. There is so much Mayberry in this world if we just keep looking for it. Go out there and share the spirit of love which is the real spirit of Mayberry.

You’re in for a real treat. We’re lucky enough to have a special report from one of our listeners, Tim Bradshaw, as he recounts writer Ellery Klass‘ meeting Andy during the time when The Andy Griffith Show was still in production.
We also have some special music by Ernie Rowell. Ernie is from Alabama but lives now in Nashville, TN. The song is called “I Wannta Be Like Andy” and I know you’re going to enjoy it. You can purchase the song at the link below.

A very special edition of The eBullet, the official newsletter of The Andy Griffith Show Rerun Watchers Club, focused on Remembering Andy Griffith was published the last week of July 2012 just before this podcast was recorded.
The effort that editor of The eBullet, Jim Clark, put into the creation of this wonderful tribute is something I couldn’t let pass without sharing with all of you here on Two Chairs No Waiting. Jim captured the feelings of no only himself but those of Andy’s co-workers, family and friends. All were fans of Andy and we able to express their love of the man in ways I never could.
Thank you to Jim Clark for allowing us to provide an audio version of this issue of The eBullet to you in the form of our podcast. I encourage you to go and read the words and see the photos in the published version of the article because I can’t share it all in the time we have together. There’s just so much to be said about Andy Griffith…we’ll never finish.

Some time has passed since Andy’s passing on Tuesday July 3, 2012 (I misspoke last week by saying Tuesday July 5th) but fans of Andy continue to express their love of the man who gave us Sheriff Andy Taylor, Ben Matlock, and so many other great memories.
We’ll look a bit in the history of Andy Griffith, his career, and more. We’ll also hear from more fans like you so sit back and lets honor the life of THE man of Mayberry, Andy Griffith.

Andy Griffith passed was on Tuesday July 3, 2012. It was a sad day in the lives of Mayberry fans all across the country.
People have been leaving memorial messages, writing poems, sharing photos, and in general sharing their feelings about this entertainment legend. iMayberry.com, the iMayberry Community, Facebook, and just about every way a person can think of has been used by fans to let anyone willing to listen know what Andy meant to them.
Let’s take a few minutes to hear from fellow fans as they tell us what Andy meant to them.

We’re gonna be talking about Leonard Blush on the Two Chairs No Waiting podcast this week. If you don’t know, Leonard was the “Masked Singer” and is somewhat of a legend in Mayberry. You know…he sang the “Star-Spangled Banner” a the opening of the county insecticide convention.
What we’ll be talking about is a story that Two Chairs No Waiting listener John Foster made me aware of about a Pest Control company in Florida who’s owner says TAGS was his inspiration in creating his company 24 years ago. I’m sure that Leonard Blush had something to do with the whole thing.
