    Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:32:49 The Manicurist was the 48th episode filmed and the 48th aired of The Andy Griffith Show. (S2.E16) We'll play Mayberry trivia all about "The Manicurist." Plot Summary The Manicurist: Shapely young Ellen Brown pops into Mayberry in search of a friendly town where she can make a living as a manicurist. When she lays claim to a corner of Floyd's Barbershop, the men of Mayberry aren't quite sure how to act. It isn't long before they come around to liking the whole idea, and it's the wives who become less than enthusiastic. We'll review some notes and "Odd Facts Known by Few" related to the episode The Manicurist. We'll go over the answers to the trivia questions.

    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.

  • TCNW 861: Say Uncle Trivia
    Oct 22 2025
    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.

  • TCNW 858: Mayberry Days Memories 1995
    Oct 1 2025
    Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:42:08 The 2025 Mayberry Days just wrapped up in Mount Airy, North Carolina. Andy Griffith's hometown of Mount Airy became Mayberry for the week and it was wonderful. I'm not going to talk too much about this years event because I have a task for those of you who were in attendance. I would very much like for you to call into the podcast and leave a voice message telling about your experience. The number is (256)513-9526 and you can call or you can go to TwoChairsNoWaiting.com and click the "Leave a Voicemail" flag floating on the right. (You can also go to "About" and "Contact" to leave a message that way. I know those that enjoy this podcast would love to hear what you thought about the event. Please give it try. This episode we're going to see some memories from the 1995 edition of Mayberry Days and specifically the Doug Dillard Show. I really believe you'll enjoy it and it'll give a flavor of what you might experience at a Mayberry event. This is another episode that I would encourage folks to watch the video because the things we'll be playing are clips and seeing them, I believe, would be better than hearing only.

  • TCNW 857: Event Fun Through the Years
    Sep 24 2025
    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!
