Welcome to episode 77 of the Mayberry Devotional entitled “Holy Spirit Guide Us”. Today I’ll be looking at season three episode eleven of The Andy Griffith Show, “Convicts At Large”. And I’ll also be looking at Scripture from 1 Peter 3:15b.
and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
Granville, TN has an annual Mayberry/I Love Lucy Day and this years was held on April 9th. The special guest for the event was Keith Thibodeaux, the man who played Opie’s friend “Johnny Paul” as well as “Little Ricky” on I Love Lucy. What a wonderful bridge between the two great television classics.
Episode #295 of Two Chairs that featured Keith and I encourage you to give it a listen because while he does go into a bit of his time on The Andy Griffith Show in the presentation he did in Granville, he talked more about it back in episode 295.
In Granville, Keith shared with us all his experience growing up in the entertainment industry. He talks about how he got his job on I Love Lucy and what that was like. His hits on the fun he had working on The Andy Griffith Show and then moves on to how his life after Mayberry played out. His struggles, reaching out to God, redemption, and joy. You will not want to miss a minute.
Finally, we’ll checkout this weeks installment of “Returning to Mayberry” by SpiritWalker called “Car Men to Guitar Men.”

Welcome to episode 76 of the Mayberry Devotional entitled “Forgive and Forget”. Today I’ll be looking at season three episode ten of The Andy Griffith Show, “Opie’s Rival”. And I’ll also be looking at Scripture from Matthew 26:33-35.
33 Peter answered him, “Though they all fall away because of you, I will never fall away.” 34 Jesus said to him, “Truly, I tell you, this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.” 35 Peter said to him, “Even if I must die with you, I will not deny you!” And all the disciples said the same. – ESV
I received a question from a listener that I thought was interesting. It was basically, has knowing more about The Andy Griffith Show changed the way your watch episodes? Do you look for blooper/mistakes in the production? Seams in the walls? Wrinkles in the carpet? Folks appearing/disappearing from the background of scenes?
Does knowing more about how the show was made add to your experience when watching or does it take away from the fun? That’s what we’ll try and find out.
We’ll have a few trivia questions to see if you’re keeping your Mayberry skills sharp.
Finally, we’ll checkout this weeks installment of “Returning to Mayberry” by SpiritWalker that he’s calling “SpiritWatcher Connections 1.”

Welcome to episode 75 of the Mayberry Devotional entitled “Lies Beget Lies”. Today I’ll be looking at season three episode nine of The Andy Griffith Show, “Floyd, the Gay Deceiver”. And I’ll also be looking at Scripture from Proverbs 14:5.
“An honest witness does not deceive, but a false witness pours out lies.” – NIV
There has been a lot of conversation on the internet in the last few weeks about Floyd. We all know who Floyd is, the barber in Mayberry, but the talk has been about the 1st Floyd and the 2nd Floyd. You don’t know what I’m talking about? You only remember one Floyd? We’ll that’s what we’re going to talk about and help you come up to speed.
An actor by the name of Walter Baldwin was the first person to play Floyd the barber. He was only in one episode and was replaced by the Floyd we all know and love, played by Howard McNear. I have a very special place in my heart for Howard McNear since his is the version of Floyd I play tribute to at Mayberry festivals.
I’ve got a lot of good information about the character of Floyd the barber that I know you’re going to enjoy.
We’ll read some trivia questions and have some fun.
