2025 Mayberry Days just wrapped up the end of September. Mount Airy, N.C. became Mayberry for the week. I asked my listeners/viewers on last episode to call in and they responded!
I received more that ten voice messages to share with you so you are in for a treat. You’ll be able to hear from folks who actually attended Mayberry Days to hear what they thought of the festival. Maybe that will help you make up your mind to attend next year and/or to attend the other Mayberry events held throughout the year.
You can find out about the events by visiting iMayberry.com and going to the “Event Calendar” link. Don’t miss out on all the fun.
We’ll play a little trivia and as a bonus we’ll hear a little about the possibility of a second season of Mayberry Man: The Series! It’s BIG but it’s up to fans as to if it happens or not.

During the Mayberry Meetup 2025, attendee Julie Sipe was inspired by the events and the things she was experiencing to sit down and write a letter to Opie. She wrote it as if Opie were a real person who had been among those who had impacted her life in positive ways. She told of lessons she had learned from watching Opie and his dad deal with bullies and spoiled kids, help a friend that perhaps didn’t have as good a life as she might have, love their neighbor as themselves, take responsibility and stand on their own two legs, and so many impacts in her life.
On Sunday morning of the Meetup, we gathered for a Mayberry Bible study lesson and as part of it she shared this “Letter to Opie” with those able to attend. It was touching and I reached out to see if she were share it with all of us here on the podcast. Thank you, Julie, for being willing to share this wonderful piece of yourself with your Mayberry family. I think I can safely say that what you’re going to hear will ring true with the vast majority of fans.
To round things out, we’ll have some fun trying to answer a few Mayberry trivia questions.
