Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:20:47 It’s the Halloween season and it is a tradition here on Two Chairs No Waiting to tell a spooky story or two around the campfire.

By just after mid-day on Friday, the weather had cleared and only a few downed trees and power outages were left to be dealt with. Most folks attending Mayberry Days didn’t feel the impact as none of the venues hosting events suffered any ill effects....

The Horse Trader was the 14th episode filmed and aired of The Andy Griffith Show. (S1.E14)

Plot Summary The Horse Trader:

Andy proves fallible when he cons a traveling antique dealer into buying the town’s old cannon with a fabulously fictional story of the cannon’s glorious past. Opie follows his father’s example and cons a friend of his into trading roller skates for some “licorice seeds” that Opie got in a bad trade for his cap pistol. Andy, again seeing his own actions mirrored by his son, turns around and makes amends for his bad dealings.

We’ll review “Odd Facts Known by Few” related to the episode The Horse Trader.

Then we’ll play some Mayberry trivia from Paul Mulik with this week’s topic: nicknames.
