Running time: 0:19:53 Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:19:53 This is the final segment of the 1991 Opryland press conference. I took a couple of weeks off between the third segment of the press conference and this one. If you missed any of the first 3 part, or have forgotten them, you'll want to drop back by and give a listen to episodes 73, 76, & 77. George Lindsey, Don Knotts, Betty Lynn, Maggie Peterson, Rodney Dillard, and Jack Prince all have things to say during this segment.  Some of the question are hard to hear and the audio isn't perfect but we're just lucky to have this tape recording of the press conference. Many thanks to Jim Clark, Presiding Goober of "The Andy Griffith Show" Rerun Watchers Club (TAGSRWC) headquarters for allowing us to have this piece of history to share with all the fans.

You'll hear the following folks answering these questions in this order: Rodney "Darling" Dillard, George "Goober" Lindsey, Betty "Thelma Lou" Lynn, Maggie "Charlene" Peterson, Hal "Otis" Smith, and Jack "Rafe Hollister" Prince.  George and Betty speak more than one time each but I'm sure you'll recognize their voices as you listen.
