http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 21.68Mb)

Description: I know the listeners to Two Chairs No Waiting are all big fans of The Andy Griffith Show but we all have friends who are not fans. How can that be? Did their parents not raise them right? Have they been brainwashed into the belief that the show is too "country" or "hickish?" Do they not have a funny bone? What 5 episodes of The Andy Griffith Show will get them hooked like a starving catfish?

17. Two Chairs No Waiting 173: Opie’s Kindness
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 17.44Mb)

Description: The question, "Isn't Opie's sincereness a bit TOO fake sometimes. Like "Yes Ma'am" and "Yes, sir??" I doubt Ronny Howard was that "kind" in real life. It just sounds a little too fake...like a telemarketer being saying, "I promise will fix it." That's sort of what Opie was doing." What do you think? I'd love to hear your thought on this to add to those already found at the iMayberryCommunity.com web site.

http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 13.94Mb)

Description: We always assume that Bobby's and Freddy's bands are the same and while Freddy does mention that every time he comes through Mayberry that Andy tries "pot bellied schemes" we don't know that it is the same band. Maybe Bobby and Freddy Fleet are brothers who both have bands that travel the state and sometimes come through Mayberry. Maybe the script continuity person missed this one and gave Mr. Fleet the wrong name. We'll never know and it's for fans to discuss and decide for themselves.
