This is the first of a two part series featuring an interview with Bernard Fox, Mayberry’s very own bicycle riding “Englishster” Malcolm Merriweather. This interview was recorded 1998 at the 6th Annual Mayberry Squad Car Rendezvous held in the middle of a corn field near the town of Bradford, OH.
Though he was only in three episodes of The Andy Griffith Show, “Malcolm” is one of the most memorable visitors to Mayberry. Of course, I have to admit that for a long time Malcolm wasn’t the first role I thought of when Bernard Fox was mentioned. The role that many outside of Mayberry most likely remember him as would be as Dr. Bombay, the warlock doctor on Bewitched. Malcolm and Dr. Bombay are but two of the MANY roles played by this amazing actor.
Enjoy part 1 of this great interview by Mayberry, and pop culture, fan Dennis Hasty recorded live.

This is going to be a fairly long episode because I wanted to bring you the entire on stage interview with Sheldon Golomb (a.k.a. Sheldon Collins) who played Opie’s friend Arnold Bailey during the color years of The Andy Griffith show.
The interview was recorded at the 6th Annual Mayberry Squad Car Rendezvous held in a corn field near the town of Bradford, OH back in 1998. This was the first, and one of only two, Mayberry event that Sheldon has attended. Dr. Golomb is a dentist in Colorado Springs, Colorado and has been running his own practice for 20 years.
Dennis Hasty is the interviewer and was the host of “Good Morning Mayberry” on Cincinnati’s WMOH 1450AM at that time. If you watch the video version of the podcast, you’ll see a much younger version of me as Floyd on stage as well.
The guest for the 1999 Mayberry Squad Car Rendezvous were Sue Ane Langdon (Nurse Mary), Sheldon Golomb (Opie’s friend Arnold Bailey), and Bernard Fox (Malcolm Merriweather).

This week is the conclusion of the Sue Ane Langdon’s time on stage at the Mayberry Squad Car Rendezvous in Bradford, OH in 1998.
1998 was the 6th Annual Mayberry Squad Car Rendezvous and the guests were Sue Ane Langdon (Nurse Mary), Sheldon Golomb (Opie’s friend Arnold Bailey), and Bernard Fox (Malcolm Merriweather). I was there as Floyd the barber helping host the event along with Dennis Hasty who was one of the host of “Good Morning Mayberry” on Cincinnati’s WMOH 1450AM at that time.
In the coming episodes, we’ll get to hear from Sheldon and Bernard so we have a lot for which to look forward.

This weeks bonus triggered the whole podcast this week. Randy Turner covers Sue Ane Langdon in this week’s This Week in Mayberry History and that got me thinking about when I met Sue Ane at the Mayberry Squad Car Rendezvous in Bradford, OH.
The year was 1998 and it was the 6th year for the Squad Car Rendezvous and the guests were Sue Ane Langdon (Nurse Mary), Sheldon Golomb (Opie’s friend Arnold Bailey), and Bernard Fox (Malcolm Merriweather). I was there as Floyd the barber helping host the event along with Dennis Hasty who was one of the host of “Good Morning Mayberry” on Cincinnati’s WMOH 1450AM at that time.
Lucky for us all, my wonderful wife recorded the entire interview of all three of this Mayberry cast members. We’ll be listening, or viewing if you watch the video version, to Sue Ane’s interview on this episode and again next week for part 2.

This past week I ran across a nice article about The Andy Griffith Show on the website CloserWeekly.com. It was called Mayberry Exposed and it got me thinking about Andy and the gang. Where they began. What made them different. Why the show still attracts fans after 50+ years.
Let’s review some of the things we know about Mayberry and see if we find an answer along the way.

Over the last several years, I’ve come to realize that there are folks out there that don’t know all the trivial trivialities that I have absorbed in my travels. Things I think everyone knows…they have never heard or, as Ernest T. might say, it “didn’t take” for them. This is one of those things.
Actor Olan Soule, who played John Masters on five episodes of The Andy Griffith Show, was the voice of Batman in several cartoon series in the late 1960’s through the early 1980’s. Mr. Soule also had a long career in radio and commercials. This episode we’ll learn more about Mayberry’s Batman.
