Two Chairs No Waiting Andy Griffith Show Fan Podcast

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:40:34 We just celebrated Mother's Day here in the U.S. and it made me wonder if there were any references during The Andy Griffith Show about mothers or Mother's Day. There are no dedicated Mother's Day episodes during the run of The Andy Griffith Show. That aligns with its gentle, everyday small-town storytelling rather than holiday-specific plots. References to mothers are subtle, infrequent, and often tied to character dynamics, with Aunt Bee serving as the central maternal/surrogate figure for Andy and Opie. I'll dig into some "mom" related topics like: Opie's Mother (Andy's late wife); Barney Fife's Mother; Howard Sprague's Mother; and, Aunt Bee as Mother Figure. We even have trivia by Paul Mulik about Motherhood that we'll play at the very beginning (so I don' give away any answers), so enjoy playing along. I'll go over some of the upcoming Mayberry events that you should be planning to attend, if you can. After all that we'll try the last few questions from the 2026 Mayberry – I Love Lucy Festival we haven't already covered in previous weeks.

We'll review some notes and "Odd Facts Known by Few" related to the episode Jailbreak. We'll go over the trivia questions related to Jailbreak.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:31:14 Even in a town where the biggest crime might be a misplaced pickle jar, love found its way into Mayberry's gentle rhythms. From puppy crushes to long-term romances, the show wove sweetness into its most memorable plots. One of the earliest and most charming arcs of affection comes from young Opie Taylor. In Season 5's "Opie Loves Helen," he awkwardly but adorably develops a crush on his schoolteacher, Miss Helen Crump — even going so far as buying her a gift with his hard-earned 74 cents! Opie's loves continued into season 8, where in "Opie's First Love" he musters the courage to ask classmate Mary Alice Carter to a party — a classic tween drama complete with dance plans and mixed signals. Aunt Bee Taylor's love life also got its share of spotlight. From an old beau, Roger Hanover, returning to Mayberry to court her to trying out the idea of marriage with dry-cleaner Fred Goss, Aunt Bee was hit by Cupid's arrow from time to time. This episode we'll explore how Andy & Helen and Barney & Thelma Lou romances didn't rush it, and as fans know, but ultimately end up together. Love in Mayberry wasn't about drama or high stakes — it was about sincerity, community support, awkward moments, and personal growth. We'll play some trivia with the topic "Oh, you're funny, you are!" by Paul Mulik. To wrap things up a song for Jenny Boone from her husband Fred. The lyrics are by my friend Ronnie Felker but it is most certainly Fred's 'hort' speakin' to Jenny's 'hort.'

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:28:14 Back in episode 867 of Two Chairs No Waiting called "Real Flying Cloud," I made what turned out to be a mistake that resulted in me being told I wasn't "southern" and should have gotten a southerner to translate what Andy said for me. Well, I'm here to try and earn my southern card back since I was born, raised, and live in Alabama. (It's hard to get things dune down here without my southern card.) I'll fix my error and try to help folks born after the 1940's understand what caused my confusion. I invite you to go back and watch 867 as most all the information I provided was correct but what I heard, as I'll explain, was not. Hopefully, this will clear up any misinformation I may have put out in the world and will keep the "bad" information from growing. We play some fun "Who Said It?" trivia by Paul Mulik with a bit of a twist that I think you'll enjoy.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:32:13 You're in for another treat this week as contributor Codie Sloan is back with a report. If you missed his past reports on Mayberry Filming Locations (TCNW #789 & #790), you really should go back and give each a watch. Yes, I said watch because while listening to his reports is great…it's even better to see the photos that he provided during his reports. This time, Codie is giving us information related to his finding the mystery filming location from The Andy Griffith Show episode "Andy's Rich Girlfriend." That's the one when Peggy McMillan shows up with a brand new T-bird. Andy learns she's the daughter of the "M" in R & M Grain Elevators. Andy struggles to fit in with the wealthy class. Finally realizing it's better to be himself. In that episode, Andy, Barney, Thelma Lou and Miss Peggy go to "Mom's Diner." Fan's never knew where "Mom's Diner" was located in the "real" world (i.e. the filming location), until now and thanks to Codie's research. Well, that's not quite true, the information was first published for fans who subscribe to "The Andy Griffith Show Ambassadors Magazine" published by Two Chairs contributor and author, Randy Turner.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:53:27 Over the last 10 years, I have been fortunate to become friends with Dixie Griffith. Dixie is the daughter of Andy Griffith and back in 2015 she came to her first Mayberry event. Since that time she has attended many events, Mayberry cruises and all in all enjoyed experiencing the fans of her dad and Mayberry. This is the first of as two episode series where we'll be able to hear from Dixie about family, the Mayberry fandom, her father, her mother and about herself. We start off hearing about her latest hobby then move into talking about attending Mayberry Days in 2015 for the first time. The conversation goes along from there and I know you're going to enjoy hearing from Dixie. This is a series of episodes that you'll want to watch the video because I show photos related to some of the stories Dixie shares with us. Subscribe to my YouTube channel, it's free, to make sure you don't miss an episode.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:39:26 There are some amazing Mayberry events scheduled for 2026 that i think you'd really enjoy. I'll point out some of them which can be found on the iMayberry.com website's "Event Calendar." I certainly encourage you to try to attend one of the scheduled events. To give you an idea of what you might see when attending one of the larger events we're going to watch (yes, I think you should watch the YouTube version of this episode) a compilation of video clips from Mount Airy, N.C.'s 2025 Mayberry Days event. Specifically this is from the "Col. Tim's Talent Time" show that wraps up the Mayberry Days week each year. These clips feature the Mayberry tribute artists recreating moments from the episode "The Songfesters" (S4.E20). It features James Dodson as Andy, Terry Varvel as Barney, Chris Bauman as Gomer, and Allan Newsome (me) as Floyd. The choir itself features all the other tribute characters as well as several "fans" who were attending Col. Tim's. The events seen were done as what I call "in-betweens" with the final choir scene done as a featured act. And "in-between" is something done between the talent acts occurring during the show to keep the "Mayberry" feel of the event flowing among the singers, dancers and other acts of Col Tim's Talent Time. I hope you enjoy it and that it gives you an idea of what you're missing during these wonderful Mayberry events. A big thank you to Neil & Pat Coleman for the video of Col. Tim's! To close out, we'll play the second round of "During Our Lifetime We Travel Many Roads" Mayberry trivia by Paul Mulik.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 1:01:29 It's Christmas time here in Mayberry and time for the annual Christmas episode. The Andy Griffith Show had only one episode centered around any holiday and that holiday was Christmas. Fans have watched that episode over and over seeing as Ben Weaver tries to get arrested so he can spend Christmas in jail with the Taylor's, the Muggins', and Miss Ellie. It always plucks on to our hearts when we see Ben singing outside that courthouse cell window. Since the podcast began, Two Chairs has tried to bring back the warm feeling from The Andy Griffith Show as we go through Mayberry related memories of Christmas time. We also try to make a new memory or two in the process. We have a special guest back again this year from over in Dodge City. His name is Festus Haggen and he has a really good story to tell about Santa. There's a story called "The Fife Before Christmas" by my friend Rik Roberts who played "Barney" to my "Floyd" in the Mayberry Man movie and Mayberry Man series. We have a favorite of mine by Charlie Monk called "Andy and Opie Christmas" that brings back memories of a small town Christmas that sure reminds me of Mayberry. We hear from Elinor Donahue about recording "Away in a Manger" with Andy then we hear her sing just that. We have a great song with lyrics written by Russell Estes called "A Mayberry Christmas" that does a wonderful job of taking us back to our hometown. For a bit more Christmas music, we'll play my 2022 Mayberry Christmas card featuring images from Mayberry Man the Series. And, if you stick around till the end, we'll have Miss Ellie and Andy sing an encore of "Away in a Manger." God bless you and I hope you have a very merry Christmas. NOTE: The YouTube video had portions (Away in a Manger by Elinor and the MayberryTone News-Newsome 2017 card) that had to be removed because of "copyright" claims preventing any of the video from being visible.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:43:36 Last week we played Round 1 of the Mayberry Days Trivia Championship 2025 where ever correct answer was worth 100 points. If if you didn't play last week, you may want to go back and play along because this week you bring your point total forward into round 2. This episode we'll play Round 2 and the "final question" of the Mayberry Days Trivia Championship 2025. Round 2 has ten questions with each being worth 200 points. Incorrect answers are worth negative 200 points. You'll need to keep up with your score so you can add your round 1 and round 2 point totals together. The "Final Question" allows those with positive point totals to wager their points in an attempt to score the highest total. This years winner was a first time champion and the youngest Mayberry Trivia Champion ever, Lillie Lobb. Thank you to Kenneth Junkin (a.k.a. Otis) for being the trivia master for Mayberry Days Trivia Championship. We have a couple of voice messages from listeners that you will enjoy. To close out, we'll play some fairly easy Mayberry trivia to build back up your confidence.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:35:22 This episode we'll play Round 1 of the Mayberry Days Trivia Championship 2025. Ten questions with each being worth 100 points. Incorrect answers are worth negative 100 points. Keep up with your score and remember to remove 100 points for any missed answers. I suggest you don't guess to avoid the negative points. Next week we'll play Round 2 (worth 200 points each) is nine questions plus the "Final Mayberry Question." Incorrect answers in Round 2 will be worth negative 200 points.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:51:36 I received a question from "Who's Been Messin' Up the Bulletin Board?" Chapter member, Larry Grainger asking: Do you or some of your listeners know what this line means, from "Citizens Arrest?" ANDY: Yeah. Misdemeanor charge of disturbing the peace. Drove down main street with a cutout open and a real flying cloud. If you don't immediately recognize that line of dialog, you can be forgiven….mainly because I didn't remember it myself so if you don't recall it right away, I'll feel better. The quote kicks off from the first scene of Season 4, Episode 11, called "Citizen's Arrest" (it first aired back on December 2, 1963, which is a whopping 63 years ago from when this podcast drops). In this episode, Deputy Barney Fife, played by Don Knotts, is digging through some dusty old arrest records from past Mayberry sheriffs at the courthouse. He starts reading out loud one of those old misdemeanor charges from way back when. We'll answer this question and provide a lot for you to think about as we hit the stories in the Weaver's Newsletter Nov/Dec 2025. There's a lot of really good information in there and it's FREE for you to subscribe and get for yourself. We'll follow all that up with some trivia by Paul Mulik covering the topic: Nutrition.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:38:22 The Andy Griffith Show was front of mind in Marion, KY on Saturday night's Old Kentucky Hayride show in the historic Fohs Hall. Cutter & Cash and The Kentucky Grass band who preformed the last two years as the musical act on the Cruise to Mayberry invited Floyd the barber to be a special "secret" guess performer at the Old Kentucky Hayride on November 15, 2025. They had "Floyd" (yes, I'm taking about myself in third person) hide down in the basement until time to take the stage just before the intermission half way through the show. We'll watch, or listen to, the LIVE performance as filmed by David Collins. My thanks to David for allowing Two Chairs to share his recording. This week's trivia questions is part 2 of Paul Mulik's "Fun Girls" trivia. Last episodes part 1 questions were not super easy but you've hopefully had a week to study the Fun Girls and are prepared. Good luck and have fun answering. Share the podcast with your friends. It doesn't have to be this episode, you have 864 others to pick from so give your friend the one you think they'd like best.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:40:34 The day this episode premieres is Veterans Day here in the United States so I thought it would be fitting to talk about The Andy Griffith Show characters and actors that were veterans. This took a good bit of research and I'm not sure I got them all. If you know of characters or actors that I miss, please let me know Mayberry trivia expert, Paul Mulik, called in with his information about veterans so we'll hear from him first and we to close the show we'll hear from him again in the form or trivia question. This week's trivia questions by Paul are all related to the "Fun Girls." Good luck and have fun answering.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:36:27 Each year I do one episode that's a lot different than the others I do throughout the year. It's the spooky time of year so we're gonna have some fun with stories that are either from Mayberry or are Mayberry related. This year we have a new story for you that was provided by Dale O. Garrett called "The Legend of The Glowing Remshaw Roses." The next story that's something like a campfire story Andy might tell around the fire called, "Chief Sawnee's Gold". This is used by permission from the original site that published it (TheMoonlitRoad.com). We wrap up with Andy tribute artist, James Dodson, telling us the story of the "Golden Arm." Leave the lights on if you're like Barney and Gomer and these stories might keep you awake around the fire.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:34:05 This episode will focus on trivia provided by listener/viewer of the podcast, Paul Mulik. Paul provides trivia for us here on Two Chairs quite often and we normally play a few questions each week. Since next week will be our "Spooky Time of the Year" episode and there won't be any trivia, I thought we'd double down and do an entire group of trivia questions on this episode. These likely won't be all that easy so get out your thinking caps and lets see how many we can answer. A listener wrote in with a question about "Central High" that I have an opinion on but don't have a "for certain" answer. If you do, I'd love to hear from you. We have a few voice messages to go through as well so this should be a fun episode.

You'll be able to hear from folks who actuall attended Mayberry Days to hear what they thought of the festival.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:33:02 This is Mayberry Days week in Mount Airy, North Carolina. Mount Airy is Andy Griffith's hometown and this marks the 36th Annual Mayberry Days. Folks often ask what happens at the shows like Col. Tim's during Mayberry Days so this episode we'll experience some examples of the things that occur at Col. Tim's. This is an episode that I would encourage folks to watch the video because the things we'll be playing are clips from different events and seeing them, I believe, would be better than hearing only. We have Floyd joining Rodney Dillard and the Dillard Band in singing "House of the Rising Floyd," Elizabeth MacRae who played Lou-Ann Poovie on Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C. will sing for us and be joined by Gary Crain (Gomer) for some fun, the first every performance of "Good ol' 14A" at Col. Tim's in 1994, and we'll wrap up with Floyd singing "My Hometown" with Elvis. Big ain't the word for it!

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:30:00 During the Mayberry Meetup 2025, attendee Julie Sipe was inspired by the events and the things she was experiencing to sit down and write a letter to Opie. She wrote it as if Opie were a real person who had been among those who had impacted her life in positive ways. She told of lessons she had learned from watching Opie and his dad deal with bullies and spoiled kids, help a friend that perhaps didn't have as good a life as she might have, love their neighbor as themselves, take responsibility and stand on their own two legs, and so many impacts in her life. On Sunday morning of the Meetup, we gathered for a Mayberry Bible study lesson and as part of it she shared this "Letter to Opie" with those able to attend. It was touching and I reached out to see if she were share it with all of us here on the podcast. Thank you, Julie, for being willing to share this wonderful piece of yourself with your Mayberry family. I think I can safely say that what you're going to hear will ring true with the vast majority of fans. To round things out, we'll have some fun trying to answer a few Mayberry trivia questions.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:27:58 I've been going through old files on my computer and came across a poem by a person with the username "Al Becker" from 2001. This poem really makes you think about what it would be like to meet not only Andy but many of the cast members from The Andy Griffith Show. What would your say to them? How would you feel when you met them? I've been lucky to have met so many of our friends from Mayberry and I can say this poem helps me to remember those wonderful times. I also ran across some video from 1999 that I've shown here on Two Chairs way back in April 2012. I thought it might be worth sharing again. Andy Griffith appeared for the first time on the Grand Ole Opry back on November 13, 1999. Andy was there to present fellow Tar Heel Earl Scruggs with a North Carolina Hall of Fame award. When Andy joined Earl on stage and he received an extended standing ovation. Here even said, "I 'preciate it" and then told a barbershop joke that George Lindsey had first shared with him years ago. Then Andy, with Earl and company backing him (and playing a guitar he used on The Andy Griffith Show) played and sang "Whoa Mule," (also called "Flop Eared Mule"). Andy had performed that song with the Country Boys on The Andy Griffith Show episode "Mayberry on Record." Enjoy the memory We'll do a few trivia questions as well.

So, I ran across a clip where somebody has stolen Floyd's pants and he's trying to get them back. I hope you'll enjoy this. I recommend you watch the video version of this episode even if you usually just listen to the audio. I believe it would be worth watching. The video clip was provided by Neil & Pat Coleman so a BIG thank you to them.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:34:11 Folks seemed to really enjoy the video of Psalm 23 from episode 847 of the podcast so I thought I would share a highlight from Col. Tim's Talent Time that occurred during Mayberry Days 2021. We'll watch, or listen to, the Mayberry Founders Day Pageant featuring many of our Mayberry tributes. This is performed on the Andy Griffith Playhouse stage where a school age Andy also once performed. The host for the pageant is Floyd the barber.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:27:07 This week marks the 101st birthday of the amazing Don Knotts. Don, of course, played Deputy Barney Fife on The Andy Griffith Show, Ralph Furley on Three's Company and starred in the The Incredible Mr. Limpet (1964), The Ghost and Mr. Chicken (1966), The Reluctant Astronaut (1967), and The Apple Dumpling Gang (1975). That's just a short list and much more can be found online and in books about this amazing man. I felt like it was only fitting that we revisit some of the highlights of his life and career as we remember his birth. We'll wrap things up with a little fun trivia that I think you'll enjoy.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:31:20 I've been looking through old videos the last week or so and ran across a wonderful routine that David "The Mayberry Deputy" Browning and I did back in September 2015. A whole group of tribute artist gathered at Bellevue Baptist Church near Memphis, TN to perform a play written by David called "Ernest T's Rock Concert." A portion of the play, this segment called 23rd Psalms, was written by Joe Gritton. Podcast listeners might remember the name Joe Gritton (known around the Mayberry internet world as "The Untrained Voice" ) as the writer of several episodes of Two Chairs featuring Bert Miller and Floyd Lawson. Joe has passed away but what he wrote still impacts the lives of us Mayberry fans. The first of Joe's podcast episodes was way back in episode 17 of Two Chairs called, "Bert Miller Barbershop Flashback" and there have been several more "old time radio" type scripts by Joe since. A link to all is in the notes below. We'll go over some fun Mayberry trivia questions from Paul Mulik and related to things Floyd says, part 2 and we'll do a few additional questions as well.

As I mentioned last episode, on a recent trip to TAGSRWC HQ in Nashville, I was presented a tub full of articles, papers, stories, and more. As I was going though the papers, I found a great "Howard's Notes" article from 1997 sent into TAGSRWC HQ by The Mayberry Texans chapter. This one was about Happy Valley. You know…what Chief Noogatuck said he'd call the valley that contained Mayberry. We'll learn about that valley on this episode. I have also been thinking about "catchphrases" fans have grown to love and where did they originate. This episode we'll look for answers to those questions related to Gomer's "Shazam" and Barney's "Nip it in the bud." We'll go over some fun Mayberry trivia questions from Paul Mulik and related to things Floyd says.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:30:53 On a recent trip to TAGSRWC HQ in Nashville, I was presented a tub full of articles, papers, stories, and more. As I was going though the papers, I found a great story from 1994 sent into TAGSRWC HQ by The Mayberry Texans chapter. It was about Pilot Mountain, or as Mayberry fans know it best, Pilot Mountain, N.C. This history lesson for both the fictional Mt. Pilot and the actual Pilot Mountain is something I believe fans will enjoy. This being Independence Day week here in the U.S.A., I did a little research on characters and actors from The Andy Griffith Show to try and determine those that had served in the military. I realize that July 4th is not really about honoring our military but I figure there's never a bad time to do so. I'll present what I learned and ask for all of you to help me crowdsource information on cast and crew to develop a more complete list that we can publish on the Mayberry.info site. We'll go over some fun trivia questions as well.

Plot Summary The Pickle Story: It's canning time again, and Aunt Bee has put up another batch of pickles. After realizing the only thing they're good for is killing flies brave enough to land on them, Andy and Barney decide to substitute store-bought for her homemade and hand out the originals to travelers passing through Mayberry. After the switch, Bee decides to enter her pickles in the county fair. Unfortunately, the perennial winner is Clara Johnson, Bee's best friend, and she has her heart set on winning her 12th blue ribbon in a row. Andy and Barney have no choice but to get rid of all eight jars before she can enter, so they eat night and day until all the pickles are gone. They do their work proudly, but Bee decides that since the boys liked them so much, she will make a double batch. We'll review some notes and "Odd Facts Known by Few" related to the episode The Pickle Story.

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:50:36 This week we have several fun things to talk about some of which comes from the May 2025 edition of the Weaver's Newsletter. We hit some highlights from the newsletter and then hear from some of you with voicemail and written comments. I talk a bit about the upcoming Mayberry Meetup in Mt. Airy, N.C. and encourage folks to attend an event near you. Meeting fellow fans is almost as special as meeting cast members so I don't want you to miss out on either.
