Two Chairs No WaitingWe first meet Bobby Fleet on The Andy Griffith Show episode “The Guitar Player.”  You’ll remember that episode with James Best as “Jim Lindsey” who Andy helps find a job playing guitar.  There are close-ups of “Jim” playing the guitar and Jame Best can’t play the guitar. Mr. Best has said at events that the fellow who played the close-ups may have been Herb Ellis.  We’ll talk about Herb more later (next podcast) so keep him in your memory.

The character “Bobby Fleet” was played by Henry Slate.  Mr. Slate appeared in only one episode of The Andy Griffith Show but he was in a long list of movies including Winged Victory, You’re in the Navy Now, The Jazz Singer, Rock around the Clock, The Shootist, Norma Rae, and the Disney films The Strongest Man in the World, No Deposit No Return, Gus, The Shaggy D.A., Pete’s Dragon, The Cat from Outer Space and Herbie Goes Bananas.  He was also on many TV series like Mission: Impossible, The Rockford Files, Starsky and Hutch, Barney Miller, Quincy M.E., and Lassie.

We’re going to enjoy meeting Bobby Fleet and the other characters that join us in “The Guitar Player.”  As I was going through this episode, I just kept finding great quotes that brought a smile to my face and I’m sure they’ll do the same for you.

Two Chairs No WaitingWow…it’s Christmas time again here in Mayberry.  There may have been only one Christmas episode of The Andy Griffith Show but this is our fourth Christmas episode for the Two Chairs No Waiting podcast.

I’m excited to have some great old Mayberry favorites to share with you.

Maybery fan, Ben Sandifer, provided us a wonderful Mayberry poem for Christmas last year so I thought you folks like like hearing it again.

We’ll take a wonderful new trip down memory lane by Charlie Monk called “Andy & Opie Christmas” which is a brand new treat for us this year.

We’ll have fun enjoying Miss Ellie singing “Away in a Manger” to close out the podcast because over the years that’s been the tradition for the Christmas episodes.

If you don’t enjoy any of that…I’ll try a few other things to make your Christmas as Mayberry as possible.

Two Chairs No WaitingLast time we heard from Marsha Anne Hudson and how some of the things at her former home were discovered.  If you messed Two Chairs No Waiting #165, please go back and give it a listen or watch the video version.

Fans of The Andy Griffith Show can certainly hear the love for the show that Marsha has and how important is was to get all aspects of the Taylor home to related as closely to those seen on the show as possible.  It was a great honor for my wife Jan and I to have the chance to visit the Taylor home and experience the feeling of being in Mayberry.

Is was an experience I’ll never forget.

On this episode we have more information about the courthouse, Wally’s Service and more.  Plus we get to hear from Floyd a little as well.

This is a two part episode and, as I said on #165, I would recommend that you watch the video version of the podcast for these episodes so you can see all the things we are talking about.

If you can’t watch…don’t worry, there are photos on our Facebook fan page related to this episode so you can still see what we’re making comments about.

Follow me on Twitter if you use twitter. I’ve been posting Mayberry things there as another way to let folks know about The Andy Griffith Show.

Two Chairs No WaitingNovember 12-17, 2011 folks in Mayberry went on “A Cruise to Mayberry #6” and I’ll tell you a good time was had by all.

Just one of the wonderful parts of the cruise was a presentation by Marsha Anne Hudson about the home she was blessed to have lived in and been a part of building.  This is a home that fans of The Andy Griffith Show would give their eye teeth to have for their very own.

I can’t even guess how much Barney Fife realitor would be able to get a Mayberry fan to pay for one in their town.

This is a two part episode and, as a first, I would recommend that you actually watch the video version of the podcast for these episodes so you can see all the things we are talking about.

If you can’t watch…don’t worry, there are photos on our Facebook fan page related to this episode so you can still see what we’re making comments about.

I know you’re going to enjoy the show so be sure to come back next week for the conclusion.
