Mayberry Radio Network

The Mayberry Internet Radio Network is just starting but "There can never been enough 'Mayberry' in this world." That being the motto of Mayberry.com's web master, the hope is the number of Mayberry related Internet Radio Shows (podcasts) will grow.

Internet Radio vs. Podcast

Many people that hear the name "podcast" believe that it is only with an iPod that a user can listen to a podcast. This isn't true and in an attempt to raise awareness of the fact that anyone can listen podcasters sometimes refer to their 'podcast' as an Internet Radio Show.

Burke on Mayberry

In this entertaining podcast Dr. Kevin Burke discusses the cultural relevance, morals and "just plain fun" embodied by "The Andy Griffith Show" (1960 - 1968). Although the TAGS season finale was in 1968, this classic television show is still going strong more than 40 years later! Dr. Burke will provide “behind the scenes” tidbits, discuss insights into TAGS episodes, and test your knowledge of TAGS with a trivia question at the end of each podcast! Submit your Mayberry trivia answers, comments, and questions to burkek@etsu.edu. Answers to the Burke on Mayberry trivia questions are located on the Episodes & Trivia page of this website.

Note: Burke on Mayberry can only be listened to by using iTunes to subscribe and download the podcast but you can listen to the downloaded files on your computer. You don't need an iPod.

Two Chairs No Waiting

Mayberry.com launched a podcast hosted by Allan Newsome, a tribute artist for "Floyd the Barber," in October 2008. "Two Chairs No Waiting" podcast is about The Andy Griffith Show and all things Mayberry. There are interviews, question and answer sessions and a lot of Mayberry fun. Interviews have included George "Goober" Lindsey, Elinor "Miss Ellie" Donahue" and several of the Mayberry Tribute Artists.

Note: Two Chairs offers many ways to enjoy its content- listen directly on the shows web site using a "flash" player, download episodes, subscribe using iTunes, use any RSS reader to subscribe, or subscribe for e-mail notices.
