I was watching the episode “Ellie for Council” today and it really got me thinking about what happens in this episode. I mean, at first glance it looks like an extremely sexist episode but if you stick with the episode until the end….something happens. A real lesson is taught. This from an episode filmed in 1960. A comedy television series delved into the topic of equality and by the end tried to teach us all a lesson.
This was really a one of kind type thing in 1960. A television sitcom looking at who women are treated in society. The small, rural town of Mayberry…in the end…realized and accepted that women should be treated as equals. Boy…it didn’t start that way but isn’t that what growth is all about. Sheriff Taylor, and the men of Mayberry, GREW during this 30 minutes of television.
This week’s installment of “Returning to Mayberry” by SpiritWalker is called, “Heart to Heart.”

The Mayberry Trading Post in Meadows of Dan, VA has a connection to They Andy Griffith Show. The area where it’s located is very likely where the name Mayberry came from. Things nearby like Mayberry Creek sure makes it seem like the Mayberry Trading Post is located in the real Mayberry.
We’re fortunate this week to have Phil Barnard as a guest. Phil’s family has a wonderful connection to the Trading Post and has some great history to share with us. We also have a visit from roaming reporter Randy Turner with information about the Mayberry Trading Post.
This is a great episode with information you’ll never find anywhere else.

These episodes are my favorites because I get to hear from you and your listener feedback. This is, I believe, our 45th listener feedback episode. We’ve had more episode feedback that that but not all of them were dedicated to only feedback.
We have voicemails from several listeners as well as comments submitted online, mostly from YouTube viewers of Two Chairs No Waiting. If you only listen to the episodes, you’re missing out on seeing my smiling face each week as well as the images related to topics I discuss so give the YouTube version of the show a watch on your phone of tablet. You can even watch it on your smart TV, if you have one, and it looks good on the big screen.
This week installment of “Returning to Mayberry” by SpiritWalker is called, “Peterson to Nicholson.” I know you’re going to enjoy it.
