TCNW 764: Aunt Bee in Real Life

Two Chairs No Waiting
Two Chairs No Waiting

Host: Allan Newsome
Running time: 0:25:55

I found, or somebody sent it to me, a 1990 article from the Jackson Sun newspaper (Jackson, Tenn.) that covered Frances Bavier. It went into a bit of what she was like in real life versus what we all think of her as from TV. She wasn’t “Aunt Bee” and the story goes in to ways she differed from the character in her daily life.

We’ll go over the article and then I’ll add a few tidbits about Ms. Bavier that may help you realize that while she wasn’t “Aunt Bee” in real life, she did have at least some of “Aunt Bee’s” character living within.

Well wrap things up with a few trivia questions from the 2023 Mayberry Cruise.

TCNW 762: Thankful for Mayberry and the Laughs

Two Chairs No Waiting

Host: Allan Newsome
Running time: 0:35:30

I’m so thankful for the folks that created and and made Mayberry a real place in our hearts. The things they thought of made the town and the people who live there seem like people who could have lived in the small town I grew up with. They seemed so real, like they could have been sitting next to me in the church pew or at a ballgame at the local high school.

The world won’t be as good a place if Mayberry had never come to be. We would have messed so many laughs and smiles and things would be just a bit more sad. Thank goodness we never have to know what the it would be like not to have these wonderful characters to enjoy.

We share a bit of sad news about the passing of author Richard Kelly but in even that, there is joy because I brought more of the Mayberry spirit to us all and we’re thankful for him.

Finally, we’ll do a few trivia questions to have just a bit more fun.

Thank you to the folks that attended the Mayberry Meet-up 2023 for your support of the podcast!

It’s the Halloween time and it is a tradition here on Two Chairs No Waiting to tell a spooky story or two around the campfire.

This year we have a special guest storyteller. James Dodson has been coming to Mayberry events for a few years now as “Andy” and I thought it would be fitting to have him tell a story that I know you’ll all enjoy.

In the search for a story to tell you that is in the same spooky vein as “The Golden Arm,” I found “Chief Swanee’s Gold” written by Craig Dominey and Lanny Gilbert on “The Moonlit Road” podcast/website. Craig granted me permission to share that story with you and it will be followed by a version of The Golden Arm folktale.

The Golden Arm was most famously told by Mark Twain and also used by him to instruct others in how to tell a story. In 2015, I first presented the Mark Twain version of the story in episode #349. This being the spooky time of the year, I thought it was time to tell another version of the story.

This episode is spooky so be sure to keep those who might not sleep well, like Barney and Gomer, away from this episode I wouldn’t want to have anyone staring darkness trying to spot someone looking for their gold or their golden arm.
