TCNW 907: This is Why We Keep Coming Back to Mayberry Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:43:45 Last episode I gave some reasons why, after almost 66 years, are we still watching The Andy Griffith Show? It was a good episode and caused a lot of online conversation. So many of you had good ideas why Mayberry still touches our lives and I wanted to share them. I have several comments that were posted on YouTube, Facebook, emails and by voice mail so let’s hear what you had to say about Why We Keep Coming Back to Mayberry. We have a nice message from a listener about Mayberry Days, too. Then, that same listener sent in some trivia that is not for the faint of heart. Good luck as you try to play along. See how many you can get right. I got zero. Sign up for the Two Chairs E-mail Mailing List Don’t forget to .

TCNW 906: Why Do We Keep Coming Back to Mayberry Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:35:55 We’re going to talk about something that, on the surface, sounds like a pretty simple question. But the more you think about it, the more interesting it becomes. Why? Why, after roughly 65 years, are we still watching The Andy Griffith Show? Why are these episodes still being aired every day? Why can somebody who has seen an episode ten, twenty, or maybe even fifty times sit down and watch it again? Let’s talk this through and see if we can come up with an answer. I’d love to hear your thoughts on the matter as well so be sure to call into the show and let me hear what you think. Sign up for the Two Chairs E-mail Mailing List Don’t forget to .

TCNW 900: 900 Podcast Episodes 07/22/2026

TCNW 900: 900 Podcast Episodes Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:49:02 Welcome to the 900th episode of Two Chairs No Waiting – the podcast where we pull up a chair, sip some iced tea on the front porch, and talk about all things Mayberry. I’m your host, Allan Newsome – also known around these parts as Floyd the Barber, your friendly neighborhood tribute artist, and a proud resident of the Andy Griffith Show universe. Can you believe it? Nine hundred episodes! If we were filming in black & white like back in the day, we’d be somewhere around Season 28 by now. (laughs) That’s 32 episodes a year for 900 episodes (28.125) When I started this little podcast back in October 11, 2008. That’s 17 years, 9 months, and 10 days ago as of the scheduled release date of this episode, I never dreamed I would still be sittin’ here yammerin’ about Goober’s carburetor record (Goober’s 38-minute-12-second carburetor disassembly record), Ernest T. Bass throwin’ rocks through windows, or Opie learnin’ life lessons from Andy. But here we are – 900 episodes strong, thanks to you, the best listeners & viewers in the whole wide world. This milestone feels like one of those classic Mayberry town moments where everybody shows up to a meetings to celebrate something special. So today, we’re throwing a little party right here on the Internet. There won’t be any fancy speeches – just an expression by me of good ol’ fashioned gratitude and a few reflections from the front porch. We’ll wrap up this episode with a little Ernest T. Bass trivia courtesy of Paul Mulik. Complete the quote: Ernest T. Bass edition. Sign up for the Two Chairs E-mail Mailing List Don’t forget to .

TCNW 899: Wedding Bells for Aunt Bee 07/15/2026

TCNW 899: Wedding Bells for Aunt Bee Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:43:12 Wedding Bells for Aunt Bee was the 58th episode filmed and aired of The Andy Griffith Show. (S2.E26) We’ll play Mayberry trivia all about “Wedding Bells for Aunt Bee.“ Plot Summary Wedding Bells for Aunt Bee: Aunt Bee’s friend Clara convinces her that she is preventing her widowed nephew Andy from remarrying. Feeling like a burden, Aunt Bee reluctantly begins seeing Mayberry’s dry cleaner, Mr. Fred Goss, who has shown romantic interest in her. She pursues the relationship mainly as a pretense to demonstrate her independence and “free” Andy to find a wife of his own. Mr. Goss is eager but awkward—he talks incessantly about his dry-cleaning business and has several off-putting habits. This leads to a series of comedic misunderstandings as Aunt Bee struggles to maintain the charade. Andy remains patient and supportive throughout. The episode resolves with gentle reassurance that Aunt Bee’s presence in the home is valued and that she does not need to sacrifice her own happiness for his. We’ll review some notes and “Odd Facts Known by Few” related to the episode Wedding Bells for Aunt Bee. We’ll go over the answers for the trivia questions and talk a little about the upcoming to be held in Mt. Airy, N.C. Sign up for the Two Chairs E-mail Mailing List Don’t forget to .

TCNW 898: Andy Griffith: The Man Behind the Sheriff Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:26:14 This is a special episode, folks. We’re celebrating the 100th birthday of the man who made it all possible: Mr. Andy Samuel Griffith. Born June 1, 1926, in Mount Airy, North Carolina – the real-life inspiration for our beloved fictional town. Even though Andy left us in 2012, his spirit, wisdom, and that warm Southern drawl live on in every rerun, every laugh, and every lesson from Sheriff Andy Taylor. Grab a seat on the bench by the courthouse – this one’s gonna be a good ‘un. Andy Griffith showed us that decency, humor, and common sense can win the day. In a world that sometimes feels complicated, Mayberry reminds us of what’s important: family, friends, fishing, and doing right by your neighbors. Happy 100th Birthday, Andy! Thanks for the memories. We’ll close out by doing a little trivia sent in by Two Chairs listener/viewer Hayden Spangler related to Mayberry Music. Sign up for the Two Chairs E-mail Mailing List Don’t forget to .

The insights from those looking into our Mayberry community are interesting and something you’ll enjoy.

TCNW 896: Ernest T’s Rock Concert (2 of 2) 06/24/2026

TCNW 896: Ernest T’s Rock Concert (2 of 2) Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:25:52 This week we have the conclusion of the stage play we began in the last episode. If you didn’t , I encourage you to go back and do that before you partake of the second half of the play. Back in September 2015 some of the Mayberry tribute artists traveled to Bellevue Baptist Church near Memphis, TN to perform a play written & directed by David “The Mayberry Deputy” Browning called “Ernest T’s Rock Concert.” I featured the first portion of the play, this segment called 23rd Psalms, that was written by Joe Gritton about a year ago in of the podcast. I’ve resisted showing the entire play because the hope was always that we might be able to perform the play in other locations. After eleven years, I think that hope has been overcome by the reality that we’ll never be able to do it again. It’s a really great show written by David and I’m proud of what was done and I think it’s time to share it with the world. Ernest T.s’ Rock Concert Starring: David Browning – The Mayberry Deputy Christie McLendon – Andylina Darling Wash Kenneth Junkin – Otis Campbell Allan Newsome – Floyd Lawson Ernest T – as himself The play will be split into 2 parts with part 2 completing the play on the next episode.

Part 1 was last episode and in part 2 Dennis talks more about Mayberry and discusses how his time as a child actor wrapped up. There are questions from the Mayberry cruisers who attended the interview as well. If you didn’t know, Mayberry lost a wonderful man on May 9, 2026. Dennis Rush, who played Opie’s friend Howie in eight episodes over a two and a half year period. Dennis began coming to Mayberry Days, and other Mayberry events in 2018 and had become much loved by fans. His joy and love for his time on The Andy Griffith Show and at discovering how much fans remembered his appearances on the show was heartwarming.

TCNW 890: Motherhood in Mayberry 05/13/2026

TCNW 890: Motherhood in Mayberry 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. It’s BIG!
