You Bet Your Life #60-12 The Man Who Shot Khrushchev ('Smoke', Dec 8, 1960)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 май 2015
- Highlight of this show is @16:30, George Wood singing his original composition, "The Ballad of Groucho Marx". I don't think I've ever seen anyone else tell Groucho to shut up, in song or otherwise.
NOTE: The last few minutes are cut off, which apparently consisted of a display of female swimwear since no one won the quiz. Sorry, folks.
COUPLE #1: Priscilla Larson, who doesn't like drive-ins / George Finfrock, retired mail carrier
COUPLE #2: Toby Lowenstein, dentist's wife / George Wood, TV cameraman and folksinger

That ballad master cracked me up. Love watching all these old shows 👍🏻
Nobody could ever replace Mr.Marx. A true star from the silver screen.
Amazing girl in the first team; so time-less and self-aware.
The Ballad of Groucho Marx. Glorious.
That man was brilliant Groucho Marx and that song about Groucho the melody is going around in my head just like it was with Groucho singing it now and again
Groucho cracks me up!
Often when a question is missed, he says "You should have known that."
A d your o beer action racks me up.
My grandfather delivered mail on his mule in Missouri woods many years ago
That man just says it how it is original and brilliant
Groucho way better than Steve Harvey
Ron B --Groucho is way above many comedians !!
u shouldnt even put harvey in the same sentence as groucho
While I agree with your sentiment, my friend, I feel as though "groucho is way better than Steve harvey" might be the most unnecessary statement ever uttered lol. Was there anyone, anywhere who ever thought otherwise?
No contest.
Every day I miss you...
Love the Groucho song!
The funny thing here, is that Groucho meant every single word he said about looking at himself in the mirror. ;)
you probably dont give a damn but does anyone know a tool to log back into an instagram account?
I was dumb forgot my login password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me.
@Milo Bradley instablaster :)
For a 19 year old girl she is very mature and confident.
She’s gorgeous but deceived following horoscopes, I loved it when he called it BUNK! I didn’t know that word existed 60 plus years ago! She’s likely still alive in her 80s!
New episode!

When Groucho says Finfrock sounds like a name out of T.S. Eliot, he is referring to Eliot's "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock." When he says "a female is deadlier than a male" he is referring to the line "The female of the species must be deadlier than the male" from Kipling's poem "The Female of the Species."
The "conversation" between Eliot and Kipling is a reference to Kipling's influence on Eliot's poetry and, as a literary critic, Eliot's respect for and defense of Kipling's work. In his 1959 address to the Kipling Society entitled"The Unfading Genius of Rudyard Kipling," Eliot talked about Kipling's influence on his poetry and, in particular, "Prufrock":
"Traces of Kipling appear in my own mature verse where no diligent scholarly sleuth has yet observed them, but which I am myself prepared to disclose. I once wrote a poem called "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock": I am convinced that it would never have been called "Love Song" but for a title of Kipling's that stuck obstinately in my head: " The Love Song of Har Dyal."
Groucho was clearly very sharp and had a great intellect. Although Eliot, Kipling, and their poetry were well known, Groucho's references indicate he was more than casually familiar and he had a deeper understanding of their work and relationship. And all from "riffing" on "Finfrock."
Thank you.
You must be an extreme bore at parties, assuming there's anyone left in the world dumb enough to invite you to one.
He was a comic genius as well as literary.
So cool thank you for this,
@@williamanthony9090 And all this time I thought the pandemic was the reason I get no invites. Thank you for letting me know. The heads up (and kind words) are very much appreciated.
That sucks. No final round/big question. We need another episode. Thanks :-)
1962 folksongs album on the internet, "The Special World of George Wood and Katie (Wood)."
George Wood's folkie Groucho ballad reminds me a bit of Burl Ives.
Good observation. "Goo, goo, goo, goo, eatin' goober peas. Ooowe how delicious, eatin goober peas."
T. S. Eliot was a huge fan of burlesque and vaudeville while an undergraduate at Harvard. Eliot spent a lot of time at shows at the Old Howard and Keith's theater in Boston. In his later years, Eliot kept a signed photo of Groucho on his mantel in his office at the publisher Faber&Faber in London.
Love GROUCHO MARX. VERY FUNNY MAN.
Priscilla is very cute, looks and personality-wise, and instinctively knows how to work with the camera. Love her!
+retrorex Makes you wonder what kind of life she has/had. Still out there Priscilla? Let us hear from you or have your family tell us what we all want to know! Thanks!
When she first started to answer Groucho's questions, I thought to myself that she was a very level-headed young woman. Then she started to talk about how much an astrologer was influencing her future plans and she lost me.
Now, now... everyone deserves a hobby :)
She'd be about 78 now if still alive. She was hot af, time warp her to today she'd still be
@@loissimmons109 Same here, plus she was a bimbo.
Nice folk voice, should have done nursery rhymes and Christmas songs end up getting paid in perpetuity.
So typically wonderful of Groucho to bend the rules and give that first couple the chance of a further hundred. The lovely girl would have been better choosing something like popular singers!
Talk show hosts, can learn a great deal from Groucho 🤡😊
I'm amazed I knew most of the answers the first couple had to answer. I missed the one about where East and West were linked by rail. I knew the others and I sucked at history in school. I had a bad memory for specific details. I did better with general ideas and concepts. However, some of this I've read about again in recent years or read enough to make lucky guesses.

" I missed the one about where East and West were linked by rail." I knew it was either Utah or Colorado. That guy had a pretty good guess -- close but no cigar. The two about France were easy: most school kids are taught that France was our best friend during the Revolution, (so it stands to reason they would recognize us first) and that Franklin was our minister to France at that time.
"How did you get along with Krushyyy?" 😃😄
can we get a update on Priscilla
I love that Grocho had that guy sing with his guitar ..I liked it!..Was this guy ever famous?
Ever Famous ?
In the 1930s through the 1940she was part of the famous
Marx Brothers movie fame. If you like this TV Show “ You Bet Your Life “.
You should see their movies. I have all their movies on DVD. I watch them all once or twice a year..
The guy singing sounds a lot like Roy Orbison. I’m not sure if it is him, but it sure sounds like him and he looks like
Roy Orbison also.. He was also great!!!
@@rogerross6583 Walking Trails was asking if the contestant (introduced as George Wood) was famous, not Groucho.
I know that. I was saying that George does sound lie Roy Orbison. But he is not Roy
@@rogerross6583 No you didn't...Come on now.
Mrs. Housing Development Asbury Park wearing a bullet bra.
Where is the bathing suit shot 😎
never mind i wrote that before watching the whole thing
I'd like to spark Priscilla.5:05 "June 18th" "He'd be Gemini, he's probably musical". Like Paul McCartney for instance? And airdate Dec. 8th, 1960; John died Dec. 8th, 1980. But Groucho supposedly didn't like the Beatles, at least after seeing Hard Day's Night. He thought they were all so alike you couldn't tell them apart. Maybe he changed his mind later though. 10:00 Greetings from Asbury Park!
The comedy group Firesign Theater had an album cover where they were dressed like banana Republic dictators with large photos of John Lennon and Groucho. Lennon and Marx, that is.
Groucho was in one of his last films and they needed a cute girl for a short scene. They brought in three girls to ask Groucho which one he preferred. He said ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MINDS! One of the girls was a young Marilyn Monroe.
Priscilla would be 77....G Wood resembles Liberace'.
What happened to her coming back with a bathing suit on? Why, this is an outrage!🤣
How could one not have fallen in love with Priscilla! What a gem. Seems like most women back in those days were gems. What the hell happened. :(
A. true dingy blond......
She was definitely a cutie, but a bimbo.
That's because they could never get a word in edgewise
Now Priscilla Larson Hollander, MD
, Endocrinology
How do you know this? Is there some reference to her on Google, etc.?
I couldn't come up with anything. But I do have to see the endocrinologist every 4 months.
😂
The best game show. Others tried to duplicate this show, but NO WAY.😮
Groucho could get a little irritating with the constant interuptions
The blonde teenager rolls her eyes
She was quick with the come backs tho
Groucho knew Marilyn in the very beginning he was casting a girl for a bit part as a 'bombshell' in Love Happy and they brought in three gals. They were discussing which one to use and Groucho said ARE YOU CRAZY!!! Marilyn was so totally gorgeous even then and he knew it.
Haha funny stuff
You knew but I didn't
“And then they gave, the bird to Groucho Marx, the bird to Groucho Marx.”
The first couple is lively and fun.
Capricorn ♑ heh heh heh ...astrologist says, "stay away from Sagittarius" ♐ ...good astrologist 🔮

So you edited out the bathing suit appearance? Prude.
+Jack Carter I can only hope that was intended as a joke. I didn't edit out anything. It's an incomplete recording. Would you rather I didn't post the incomplete episode at all?
Acknowledging that you didn't edit out the ending with Toby Lowenstein in the bathing suit, I wonder who would have felt that it wasn't important.
This piqued my curiosity. So I looked for anyone named Toby Lowenstein in Google Images. Here's some pictures taken in 2013. I believe that the Toby on this show would be in her late 80's by then, but she was obviously a very attractive woman in 1960 and if she retained that quality? Any opinions or knowledge as to whether this is the same woman? (I can't imagine it being that common a name.) The pictures are associated with a Mercedes-Benz dealership in Delray Beach, FL.

Sure does look like her. Thanks for sharing.
Ouch, quick on that trigger
I believe what Jack ment to say was"Thank you for taking the time to post this for us to enjoy".Thank you sir for all your work on these.
what do you mean the man who shot krushchev?
Trevor Peddicord This is what's known as an "audience teaser". ;)
yeah i got that. But truly sir i can express how great full for you posting these videos, By doing so you have become immortal, Groucho played shush a importnant role while i was growing up. God bless you, And i would give my left leg to at the very least meet you or talk to you voice to voice.
Trevor Peddicord You can join the Facebook group. . . I'm on Facebook all the time. :)
Thanks for the very kind words.
I don't mess with Facebook or any of that stuff RUclips is the only thing I will use
No, it's called "misleading" and "clickbait". For shame. @@grouchomarx-youbetyourlife7476
