The Christmas Story was the 10th episode filmed and the 11th episode aired of The Andy Griffith Show. (S1.E11)

Plot Summary The Christmas Story:

Andy and Barney keep the spirit of Christmas alive for Sam Muggins and his family after the town Scrooge, Ben Weaver, demands Andy keep Muggins incarcerated for running a still. After being accidentally inoculated with a little of the courthouse’s Christmas spirit, Weaver comes around and manages to get himself arrested so he can bring gifts for all.

We’ll review “Odd Facts Known by Few” related to the episode The Christmas Story and see what we can learn.

Then we’ll play some Mayberry trivia submitted by trivia expert Paul Mulik.
