You Bet Your Life #60-02 Fenneman on the psychoanalyst's lawn chair ('Clock', Sept 29, 1960)

- George Fenneman completely steals this week's show. Groucho subjects him to being psychoanalyzed on national television by Loriene Johnston in the second segment. His reactions, not to mention some of his one liners, are priceless.
The first couple is returning from the prior week. It seems that last week they were sent off to conduct an informal poll on marriage, and are back to present their results, but they don't take the quiz again here. Tuulikki returned yet again the following week with her husband, Milon.
NOTE: I'm posting this show a bit out of order because it was just requested by the daughter of Tuulikki Woods in a comment on the last video. She said her parents are 85 years old and would love to see these three shows. I just wish I had the other two. If anyone else out there does have them, please get in touch!
COUPLE #1: Tuulikki Woods / Sam Rifken
COUPLE #2: Loriene Johnston, psychologist / John Reeves, vice president of a mobile home manufacturing company

My mother, Tuulikki, is now 94 and my father turns 95 next week. They're still doing the same love thing!
Awww that's beautiful
I never forgot Groucho because of the laughter. May he rest in peace. I am grateful for seeing this show again.
George Fenneman on the couch! 1950's American Male Superego in all his glory. It is really endearing and he was a very sweet gentleman.
I’m married for 53 years and I believe the secret to a long and happy marriage is for both to not only be in love but have mutual respect for each other.
I am so happy to have found this! My mother is Tuulikki Woods and she my dad are now 86 and 87...and still in love. She still does all those nice things for him! (He's pretty good to her, too...)
Always so wonderful (And all too rare) to hear from a relative of a contestant on one of these programs! I'm so glad you were able to find the video here. If your mom has any memories of being on the show that she would like to share, I know I won't be the only one to want to read them.
If you have a Facebook account and have any interest in checking out our little group on there, we'd love to see you join. But regardless, thanks for leaving the comment!

+Groucho Marx - You Bet Your Life Hey, thank you! Someone suggested that I interview her and post it, so I will. I'm still looking for the episode previous to this and the one following. I do have a rusty VHS version of when my dad joined Tuulikki and they won some money! I'd like to put all three together for a gift for them...I'll see you on the FaceBook page!
+Kelley Woods Your mother was absolutely adorable! Your dad is a lucky fellow.
That's a nice story. Tuulikki has such a cute smile.
Kelley Woods what a cutie your mom is!!!
Groucho Marx is exceptionally great he is a genius, the show is timeless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I loved this show as a kid and always found George Fenneman to be both funny in his own right and one of the most handsome men on TV.
genek64. Fennerman was a great looking guy...
@@kevinjudy7218 He was not only the announcer but the straight man to Groucho's comedic foil.
I adore George Fenneman ! What a wonderful person he was
❤
Fennamon is a great sidekick for Groucho.😊
I remember my parents watching Groucho and we would laugh because they would laugh...and sometimes my mother would laugh so much and so hard we thought she might die right on the sofa. Now, as an adult, I understand the insane humor or Groucho...and I love it. And, while I an offended by the ill-treatment of women, I think the #MeToo movement has ruined classic humor. And, George Fennemen was one o the best "Straight-men" ever.
@Virginia Morrison Yes! I see the U.S. at a very fragile threshold and change is, and has been for decades, needed. But I see the "Rush" to change---knee-jerk reactions instead of finding what will work. Camden, N.J. is a wonderful example of real change.
Just found the loveliest photo of Tuulikki at 88. 💫💫🌍💠💮💙
John Reeves and the lady psychologist were wonderful people...
💰 Reeves, John Reeves!
The man of the second couple, what was his name again?
For a silver dollar, I'll remind you.
Word is he gives up $10000 now. Inflation!
John Reeves
I don't know who you are that posted all of these YBYL episodes, but I am deeply indebted to you. Thank you x 1 billion!
*THREE* presidents married while in office. John Tyler, whose wife Letitia had died a year and nine months before, wed Julia Gardiner in New York City on June 26, 1844; bachelor Grover Cleveland (the *only* president to be married *in* a *White House ceremony*) wed Frances Folsom, the daughter of a former law partner, on June 2, 1886; Woodrow Wilson, whose wife Ellen had died a year and four months before, married Edith Bolling Galt at the bride's Washington D.C. home on December 18, 1915.

Bingo! They left out Tyler.
The the guy giving away the money should have said his name and company each time he gave away a coin, so it would be a longer lasting plug.
As of February 13, 2019, Tuulikki and Milton Woods were still with us, and she still has a sweet smile at age 89.
Two psychiatrists met each other on the street again after 30 years .. one said to the other: "Ah hello again, you're fine, how am I?"
Thanks, for posting. Groucho is numero uno.
That's it George, put your feet up and take it easy. :)
How elegant women dress!
Glad to see such a comment by a woman. Today, few women know what a dress even is, and wouldn't be caught dead in one. If women only knew that their greatest asset is a man's imagination, and they do themselves more good by covering it up rather than flaunting it, especially those who's figures are anything but flattering.
Mr. Fennemam, what do your descendants do? He was so cool, patient, diplomatic and good-humored on stage with Groucho.
Groucho is magnifico.
Groucho makes you feel good!!
I love this show! Can you upload them quicker or am I being pushy? Lol I check everyday to see if you added another episode. Thank you!
No, you're not being pushy. I appreciate the enthusiasm, and I regret posting the shows as slowly as I have been. I also run the What's My Line channel and it's taking up pretty much all my time these days. It takes a good deal of time to write up the episode descriptions for the new YBYL posts, which is what holds up my posting them more often. All I can tell you is I'm doing the best I can, and since I don't have all that many shows left to post, the slow pace is probably not going to change.
I'm really glad you're enjoying the series. Obviously, it's one of my all time favorites.
George did very well under the circumstances. The psychoanalyst parody was a good idea on paper, but more than likely to fail on stage as the lady did not have a script to follow, and Groucho didn't seem to have many jokes lined-up. Fenneman saved the day.
I might add that Groucho seemed tired, most noticeably in his voice -- probably from his insomnia.
THE LADY DOC WAS PRETTY AND HAD A GORGEOUS BODY.
she's a phD doctor stop looking at her like a piece of meat.
Knockout...
Groucho lost big with the crash of 29', so he started all over again.
.... GEORGE FENNEMAN was a nutty nutty fellow !!!
This is the first show that I have seen where George and Graucho win some money from : Whats your name again ,? Reeves, John Reeves ! 😂
Wouldn't it have been hysterical if Fenneman had tp on his shoe? 😂
Can you upload 60-03? It would be really interesting to watch Tuulikki Hämäläinen with her husband.
Found several nonagenarians named L Johnston. Wonder if the good doctor is one of them.
Talk about a fool and his money!
A Dilettante Presumptuous Theorem: The True happiness of a Man was (and still is?) the most important thing in life to teach young women in Finland Sept 29, 1960. A Feminist wants to be equal with a man. Well, why would a Feminist want to be equal with a man when a Feminist Hate how men are? Feminism lead to the destruction of the family as we can a test to in 2019. It's too bad feminism didn't mean being feminine. The trouble with Feminists is they don't understand the difference between Freedom and Loneliness. Groucho Marx - You Bet Your Life Shows are quite revealing.
So true, feminism has nothing to do with being feminine, it is a actually a rejection of the main role of women. 7th Day Adventist pastor, Doug Bachelor, in his personal testimony shows a picture of his mother as part of a feminist march that made the papers back in the 60s. He said she was a big part of the feminist movement for many years, but finally got fed up with it and divorced herself from the movement. He quotes her as saying, "The majority of the feminists are lesbians that want to be men." His testimony and many of his sermons can be found online. He has also written a book based on his conversion experience called, "The Richest Caveman." I haven't gotten hold of a copy of it yet, but plan to soon. On the flip side, a wife is not a man's slave nor a personal sex object. The Bible has this to say about the husband / wife relationship. "Be subject to one another out of reverence for Christ. Wives, be subject to your husbands as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, His body, and is Himself its Savior. As the church is subject to Christ, so let wives also be subject in everything to their husbands. Husbands, love your wives as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her..." (Ephesians5:21:25). No marriage can be truly successful unless there is mutual love and respect for the other spouse. Further, a true, biblical, God-honoring marriage is between a man and a woman, not a man and a man or a woman and a woman. That is the work of the devil in re-defining marriage and sadly, it has become the law of the land in godless America. Genesis 1:26,27; 2:18-23 teaches us that in the Garden of Eden, God made Adam and Eve, not Madamm and Eve, or Adam and Steve. No matter how happy or successful such unions may appear to be, they are abomination in the eyes of God, and woe to them who participate in or support them!
"Men and women are different" - Groucho Marx
Remember that, feminists!
He also said"I am a liberal Democrat"
Please add another YBYL. It has been a few weeks. If it's hard work just post the season and episode number. No need for more information but we do appreciate it. Thanks :-)
I appreciate the enthusiasm, but I have very good reasons for doing this the way I am. Episode numbers are meaningless to almost anyone, since the only good log of the series is only in the hands of a very, very small number of people. I will be posting a new episode very soon. I had been basically offline entirely for the last month or so for personal reasons.
We need more women like Tuulikki today - a happy husband is a happy life.
How I love Groucho. Thank you for posting this.
Fenneman gets the opportunity to Shine in this one
I’ve been binge watching (for awhile) and this episode might be the best!
Thanks!!!
Fenneman =
Mr. F is the bomb lol
ManInTheBigHat. Yes, and I know he's hopeless... Lol
good stuff
What a prick Groucho, putting George on the spot.
George did feel a bit awkward, but had a way of managing the situation of playing the victim and regaining his composure.
Groucho is a genius and a poet with plays on words. Dylan dug him.
I'm a stone cold Dylan fanatic and never heard that. That said...I could definitely see why he did 😎
@@carldavis1407 I, too was a Dylan fanatic, but Dylan was more of a wordsmith than a play on words poet. I never heard that he said anything about Groucho, but agree that he might have respected him. Dylan is in a class by himself in song-writing, but it must be admitted that he wrote his share of album-filler.
@@parsonscarlson7984 indeed 😎
15:01 wow, they said it at the same time
Best way for a woman to keep her man -
Act like his Mrs through the day
Act like his mistress through the night.
Ooohhhh sssoooo funny!
Groucho and Fennerman paved the way for Howard Stern and Baba Booey
The negative votes are from Idiots such a brilliant programme
To make a marriage work both should do the best of everything in the house because that is what makes each person happy in their relationship. I would not do some things at the house. Sometimes I might
uh, Theresa...the wedding's off, babe.
