I’ve had several folks send me things related to previous episodes and I feel like it’s time to catch up with them. Mayberry folks are some of the best people you’ll ever meet and we have several “trained noticers” in the audience that we’ll hear from.
We get some answers related to some “Who Said It” questions Jan and I asked in the last episode. Several folks sent in answers and I’m very thankful to hear from all of you but I’ll have to pick a few representatives.
Larry wrote in to point out something unusual about the original air date of the episode “A Date For Gomer” and that many, if not all, of the books on Mayberry get it wrong.
Paul Mulik sent in some great “Who Said It” questions with a bonus question that will make you scratch your head. And finally, I’ll remind everyone of upcoming Mayberry events you may want to plan on attending.

This episode we dive into the second episode of The Andy Griffith Show, “The Guitar Player.” The original Air Date: 1960/10/17. The writers are Jack Elinson and Charles Stewart. It was directed by Don Weis. We meet the character Jim Lindsey for the first of two times. Jim, of course, is played by the wonderful James Best. Mr. Best appeared often at Mayberry related events over the years before his passing on April 6, 2015.
We play some Mayberry Song Trivia we began last episode and see how we can do. Hopefully you’ll have fun.
We’ll wrap up by trying to identify “Who Said It” and we’re joined by Mrs. Weaver herself. Jump in where you can and hang on.

This episode we’ll be digging into the second episode of The Andy Griffith Show, “The Manhunt.” The original Air Date: 1960/10/10. The writers are Jack Elinson and Charles Stewart. It was directed by Don Weis. We see Otis for the fist time and we here the phrase from Barney that, I believe, Mayberry fans may quote more than any other, “It’s Big!…..Ah, big ain’t the word for it.”
I make a correct from last weeks episode to clear up something that was once believed to be true but is now known to be a misconception. (During this episode I erroneously reported that a publicity photo of a young Frances Bavier is seen on the wall of the Taylor living room as Andy walks from the kitchen to the front door. It will be seen in several first season episodes. As pointed out by Randy Turner in his fantastic collection of essays, Mayberry Firsts, the picture is in fact a print of the painting Child With An Apple by the French artist of the 18th century Jean-Baptiste Greuze.)
We play some Mayberry Trivia to see how we can do, just for fun.
