FROM: Joe
I just posted to following to iTunes…
I thoroughly enjoy listening to your podcast and eagerly await each new episode. Your podcast captures the spirit of Mayberry and reminds me to act like a Mayberrian no matter where I find myself.
I am writing because I wanted to go a little further in email to say how wonderful I think it is you were presented the flag from Paul Balmer. Not only was it flown for nine hours and eleven minutes in honor of one day of infamy, but it was also flown on December 7, another day of infamy. How appropriate to recognize TAGS and your podcast in this way. Our soldiers are fighting for a way of life and values espoused in TAGS. May we never take their sacrifices lightly or worse, forget what they do for our world. It is because of them that we can have our way of life, and as TAGS fans it should be our goal to act like a Mayberrian no matter if we live in a small town like mine (with one 4-way stop) or a city as large as New York.
Keep up the good work.
Joe

FROM: Mayor Pike
I think it’s amazing that the spirit of Mayberry can bring some joy to our men and women heroes in Afghanistan. Ernest T. was right when he said “can’t do enough for our boys in khaki”. Thanks so much to Paul and all of them as they serve. I pray they all come home safely. And, I’m sure the Milo boys would be proud, too.

Episode 13 (6 Jan 09) is about Franklin Canyon (Myers Lake). I’m not sure if folks will enjoy it but if not…there’s always next week if they don’t. 🙂
Allan, I enjoyed it. I remember the photos you took with Adam the time you visited there. I would LOVE someday to go there myself. I may never get there (since I live in the Midwest), but if I do, at least I have directions and know where to go! I also like the way you mentioned the railing where Andy stood in one episode and how you tied that in with “Return to Mayberry.” I like to know trivial trivialities like that. 🙂

Dr. Burke,
I received an iPodTouch for Christmas this year so I’ve just recently discovered Podcasts. I’ve been enjoying yours, Burk on Mayberry, and the “Two Chairs No Waiting” podcast very much. I’m almost done listening to the 32 episodes (of Burk on Mayberry) that you have posted…..
The behind the scenes stories have been great.
Thanks for all of your work
Scott

SPECIAL E-mail
From: Liza Jane about OPIE CATES
I was reading about my grandpa, Opie Cates, online and came across your website. A lady asked a question about where the name Opie came from and was is short for anything. I can answer both questions. First Opie came from Opie Cates the band leader, you are correct. Second, the name was not short for anything. His full name was Opie Taft Cates. I hope this helps. Please contact us if you have any other questions.
Sincerely,
Liza Jane

Subject: thanks for the podcast!
Just wanted to let you know i am really enjoying your podcasts.
I’ve been an Andy fan going back to the original days of the show. While living in Nashville I attended an early meeting of TAGRWC, with Jim Clark (1985?). It was held at Vanderbilt and they showed the Pilot episode on a big theater screen. It was amazing to watch the show with so many other fans. Doug Dillard sang at that event too. I’ve been to Mayberry Days twice also. We’ve many times since living in Nashville, and I tell people that the Andy episodes keeps me sane. While trying to find a job when we moved to Long Island, it was hectic and depressing trying to find a job and get used to Long Island after moving from Tennessee. Every night when i got home from my job search, i’d pull out my video tapes i had made from Andy on WTBS, watch them and breathe a big sigh of relief – EVERYTHING WAS STILL OK IN MAYBERRY!! We now live in New Hampshire and watch Andy every day.
Thanks again for doing the podcast! Makes me feel at home!
