Two Chairs No Waiting
An important person very much connected to The Andy Griffith Show (TAGS) passed away on January 30, 2010 and I couldn’t let another week pass by without mentioning his passing. So, rather than this episode simply being part three of our remembering Howard McNear we are going to also remember Aaron Ruben.
Aaron Ruben was producer, story consultant, writer, and director and one of TAGS strongest pillars for the first five seasons. Jim Clark, Presiding Goober of The Andy Griffith Show Rerun Watchers Club (TAGSRWC), said this about Aaron. “Other than Andy Griffith himself, no one was more crucial behind the scenes in guiding and shaping ‘The Andy Griffith Show’ during its first five seasons.”
Mr. Ruben will be missed and fondly remembered.
Parley Baer joins us once again to share his memories of Howard McNear and his experience performing the eulogy at Howard’s funeral. Smiles and laughter were shared that day remembering Howard and you can hear the love in Parley’s voice as he tells the story.

I hope you were able to listened to episode #68 of the podcast as this will continue along that same line. You don’t have to have heard it but I think you might like hearing it before you listen to this episode.
In this show we’ll again be hearing from Mayor Stoner himself, Parley Baer, as he tells us about his friend Howard McNear. Folks, after you hear the first story I’m pretty sure you’ll be seeing “Floyd” in your minds eye doing what Parley describes as he speaks of Howard. I was laughing and smiling when I heard it the first time and that joy is still present each time I listen.
Tell those Mayberry folks in your life about these episodes of Two Chairs No Waiting. I really believe these Howard McNear episodes are some that any “Floyd” fan will love.

Two Chairs No Waiting
Friends, I have found some things that I have never heard and I’m so excited to be able to share what I’ve found with you!
In this episode we hear from William Conrad and Parley “Mayor Stoner” Baer give us their memories of Mayberry’s favorite barber, Howard McNear.
Be sure to come back next week for more memories from Parley about “Floyd” and tell the Mayberry fans you know to drop by and give the podcast a listen. I think they, and you, will enjoy it.
