Great job y’all, you earned a new sub now.👍🏼
Totally awesome. i’m a black man that must watch this show every single day. i have every episode on tape. i haven’t missed a day of the show in probably 35 yrs. i started watching in grade school. i’m a tv comedian and i’m 63 yrs old. The show makes my day. Ernest T gets an education. is my favorite show. He’s a NUT. OMG too funny
This Guy is Great. He kept us entertained with his love of his town. We all want to live in Mayberry….Thanks John. Tell Norman thanks for his story telling….
Norm is the BEST! Thanks for watching what we do.. John & Jodi

I have to go see this town! I watch Andy Griffith reruns on tv almost everyday. Oh if we could just go back to that era. Great book of knowledge from your host Norm in this video. Loved it ❤great video
Come on by and visit
Another "Awesome" video.Norm was such a beautiful bright character. This would make people want to live Mt. Airy. John and Jodi you are great creators with your videos. Wishing you happy and safe travel.
Couldn't agree more Norm is the BEST!
Andy Griffith will always be my favorite show. And I sure wish I still had my 1965 Ford Galaxie 500 baby blue. She was so purdy!!!!
Fantastic video. They just keep getting better. I believe you have a great channel in the making. Keep those great videos coming and we will keep watching.😀
12 minutes into the video and I know I’m gonna love it. I love Andy Griffith, one of my favorite shows and I love your videos.
He is a great tour guide! Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it! Norm is great!
Thank you so much it's my pleasure
John this was sooooooo Good, I consider this place home sweet home and go as much as possible. Norm was a Blast as well, just an all around amazing Place and this video made my day.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you so much for the kind words
So excited for this!!!! Im so glad you got to go!! Everyone needs to experience Mt. Airy bc it is like Mayberry! Such great people!! Norm was wonderful! I can't wait to see your new videos!!
You guys have been trying to get me there for 3 or 4 years now. I made it as you can see! thanks
@@theappalachianchannelSo glad and can't wait to see what else you do there!!
Thank you for the kind words looking forward to sharing more mt Mayberry lol
@@normdaduck We have taken several squad car tours and each person is always so different and very enjoyable but we haven't had you yet so maybe we can also get a piece of Mt Airy granite lol.
That was a Awesome tour, and the whole crew are great, John, Jodi and Norm! I passed through Mount Airy years ago before I knew it was Andy's home town and hope to go back some day and spend a day there. Thanks John and Jodi for another great video!
I have lived in Mount Airy my whole life and this video was Absolutely Awesome!
Oh my goodness this video was just the best! I still watch Andy Griffith reruns on my tv. One person that I did not hear mentioned was Aunt Bee...did he have any info on her. Just loved her character. Can't wait for the next installment of Mayberry here on your CZcams channel. Thank you for an hour well spent!
Francis Bavier who played Aunt Bee actually lived a few towns over in Siler City, North Carolina. That's where she's buried. They say she was a hermit. She had a bunch of cats and a really big house and her house actually went up for sale last year the year before. Her accent was also really good acting lol. She was hard to work with from reading different books, and one time she broke an umbrella over Goobers head for saying a bad word lol.
Yes have lots of aunt bea stories, unfortunately the tour is only so long, come visit and I'll be sure to share some more details with you
Great video guys! Stop by Sycamore Shoals State Park near Johnson City and do a video on the Over Mountain men during the American Revolution. Many of us in the Tennessee, North Carolina and Virginia area are related to these men who fought the British at King's Mountain and don't even know it. John Sevier and Davy Crockett's father fought there. It was a turning point in the American Revolution. Great job guys, keep up the good work!
Norm was a treat! Learned so much about a subject I thought I knew well. John, a perfect example of why the Appalachian Channel resonates you put the spotlight on the people. Good job.
Thank you
Wow! That was an awesome tour and the guy Norm really knows how to tell the story. He had me hanging on the edge of my seat. Good find John & Jodi. Loved it.
Thanks for being a Fan Sponsor Member! Your Help and Support Means a lot to us!! John & Jodi
Visited Mt Airy in November 2021. Had to cut trip short after receiving word my mom was in hospital. Going again in fall of 2024. We loved it!
My bucket list is getting big my friend. Places I want to go from watching your channel. But this is probably my favorite. I love that show. Andy Griffith and Rawhide, are my favorite old shows. I’ve been late to work over a good one being on in the morning. That’s saying something. Because normally I’m around 22 minutes early to work every day and never mis . That’s why I don’t turn the tv on in the morning. 😊
LOVE LOVE LOVE this video!!! I could comment all day long about it! ❤ I grew up in the town next to where Don Knott's grew up in WV. Thank you so much for sharing!!!!GREAT JOB!
That's Close to the best one yet especially that tear guide.,God-bless

I liked that movie that really made Andy recognized, “No time for Sargents”! Good movie!
While you were riding in the Sheriff's car you could have made a "Citizen's Arrest, Citizen's Arrest!" He didn't use his blinker once while driving! LOL!

The Andy Griffith show did use a 1959 Ford for a short time.
That was the best video
Great tour!
Thank you
God. God. What is it about the human mind that makes nostalgia so FREAKING sad??? I guess it's the clarification of the fact that we're all going to die, and much sooner than we once thought. Whatever it is, it is FREAKING sad.
No seatbelts in '65 either? Ya'll are stressing me out 🤣
We were only going 5 mph lol
I’ve seen every episode of The Andy Griffith show at least three times. This video brought tears and laughter to my eyes. Great job my friend😂
Norm is the BEST! Thanks for watching what we do.. John & Jodi
Lovely couple taking a picture in front of the sheriffs car
They were awesome ❤
Nice to hear about the economy.
Very cool😅
Interesting enjoyed it ty ❤❤❤
This man would have made a great character in the original show.
he is a REAL character and you will be seeing much more of Norm in upcoming episodes.
Thanks so much for the endorsement lol
If you look at the shadowing in the background of the mural you will we Mt.Pilot (pilot mountain).
I was there this morning, I make two stops 3 times a week there
Interesting show
Love the teenager references!
funny but true lol
Them new Chevelle‘s, I didn’t like them I wish ford would bring them back the old cars like they did back in 65 Ford Fairlane’s the galaxies the Falcons my dad he had a 65 -66 ford country squire station wagon We went everywhere. We went to beach bend Kings Island, rough River man. I love that car. I wish Ford bring it back like that.
Great town with great people! Citizens arrest citizens arrest! 😂🙏☮️🇺🇸
I can't believe you didn't go see Aunt Bee's house she lived in Mount Airy
I Miss the ole car i was the 2nd owner of it
❤
What a bizzare man?
🚓🚓🚓🚓🚓
This is the most embarrassing video ever. How fake is this?
Sorry but Andy was not a nice person in real life!
Oh really? When did you meet him? I’ve never heard that
Andy was a very private person in real life.
We all have our good and bad days😂
I have a cabin not too far from mt airy .after my wife died I haven't been back but might try coming again seeing this great video.we loved shopping and eating at snappy lunch!
