This episode will be shorter than usual as I know we all have busy schedules around Christmas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have a couple of special treats for you from my friend and fellow Mayberry fan, Russell Estes<\/a>. Russell is a bestselling author<\/a> and motivational speaker known for his Christian and inspirational books, which often incorporate Southern humor. His writing is a blend personal storytelling with inspirational themes and faith-based lessons. He often incorporates The Andy Griffith Show<\/em> into his stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Russell has attended the Mayberry Comes to Scottsburg held in Scottsburg, Ind. Inspired by that event, he wrote a song called “A Mayberry Smile<\/em><\/strong>.” He used artificial intelligence (AI) to both play the music and sing the lyrics he had written.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the holidays, Russell caught the bug again and put pen to paper writing “A Mayberry Christmas<\/strong><\/em>.” Again, using AI (because he says that “like ol’ Barn, I’m a good guy\u2026but I can’t sing<\/em>“) he created a real treat for all of the Mayberry family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This episode we’ll be treated to both these wonderful creations by Russell. If you enjoy them, check out his books and Facebook page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also have a special Christmas voicemail from Dennis Rush<\/strong> who played Opie’s friend “Howey<\/em>” on several episodes of The Andy Griffith Show<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Merry Christmas everyone.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
