Isaac Kashdan (19 November 1905 in New York City - 20 February 1985 in Los Angeles) was an American chess grandmaster and chess writer. He was twice U.S. Open champion (1938, 1947). He played five times for the United States in chess Olympiads, winning a total of nine medals, and his Olympiad record is the all-time best among American players.

@Julius Ashcroft Um, didn't god impregnate her, without actually doing anything, they call it immaculate conception, and jesus was his son, jesus is not god, jesus was his son.
@Julius Ashcroft Of course, I'm sure, that some time in recent past, some cocky comedian could have come up to her and say something like, "HEY, Queenie, how's it shakin'!" Then, next thing you might hear is, (which would be from the queen), "OFF WITH HIS HEAD!" ;)
Loved the hair lady and her Mae West impressions! Would love to have seen Groucho talking again at length with the last lady. Great to see her win some money!
Grocho was the BEST! Bill Cosby tried remaking this show in the eighties, and it was funny at times, but it just didn't have the same magic. Also, this show is a fascinating study in sociology. A real cross section of American lives, from the late forties to the early sixties, are there to be studied via the lengthy conversations that took place each week. Students wondering who we are today, as a society, can study these earlier generations to help form some conclusions. Really.... Some fascinating, fascinating, stuff!
Wow! I didn't put two and two together. Didn't know that was Curtis' mother. What a sweet lady! He was very handsome and excellent actor. And a nice guy. Like Jamie Lee too.
There was once a contestant who had 10 children. When Groucho ask her why she had so many she replied "idk, i guess we just love children". Without missing a beat Groucho says; " i love my cigar too but i take it out of my mouth once in awhile". The contestant was the girl from the movie "Cool Hand Luke". Yeah, i know!
The only problem with the original version is accurate to the book “The Secret Word is Groucho” was the first two major sponsors went out of business. Elgin American Compacts and DeSoto folded. However Old Gold cigarettes, Toni Home Permanents, Lifebuoy Soap and Pepsodent Toothpaste lasted till the end
Re Groucho's tie: he and Fenneman wore the same suits every week. This was because occasionally segments that had been filmed on separate weeks were put together to make the most effective program (and Bernie Smith would have to invent a whole new secret word, one that no one had said). It's the same thing as on the George Reeves "Superman" episodes; the actors always wore the same clothes because portions of different episodes were filmed at one time and edited into the proper episode.
I saw Mrs Schwartz roll her eyes about Mr Cashton’s chess title. She’s probably thinking “that’s not a real job.” 😂😂😂 Rose has her nest egg and wants to keep it - smart lady. Miguel was really funny: “yes, I regret it.” Groucho knows how to get the best out of his guests.
what i find most fascinating between this and the prior episode, is that with the mother of tony curtis, an international chess champ, the crazy sheep lady, a guy from a country with one of the most used comedic appellate... its semi-bewildered housewife esther bradley who steals the show away from all of it!
Vincint, your right its not the next week , Esther and all the other people( contestant ) are wearing the same cloths from " last week " they probably film 3 or 4 shows in a dat
True story. In the late 80's I bought a 54, 4 door Plymouth for 700.bucks. And I was driving it into Dallas on a hot summer day with my beautiful nose in the air girlfriend dress to the hilt and she was fanning her self, with no windows down because that would mess her hair up. So I said pull on that lever and it will open up a vent on your legs and cool you down. She did and out blow dust, cob webs, and dried old leaves all over her and she was so pissed. Great memories.
@@florinest Sadly mental health issues were still on the fringe in the medical community back then, though we have come a long way...even now it is still in the dark ages for many who suffer.
I thought the same thing until she removed her hat... wow! It’s amazing it all fits in her hat! She might have been used to talking in front of crowds because of her hair performance.

Hilter's mustache was narrower and not shaved above the lip. Hitler and Chaplin and Oliver Hardy shared, what was 100 years ago, a very popular mustache (they have one mustache each -- they didn't share the same mustache).
You know they say that Groucho never knew who the guest were ahead of time but I feel like he slipped ! He called her “ mamma” Before she said publicly she was Tony’s mother ! coincidence ? Lol But still I love these shows!!!!!!!
Mid-jesting in the last episode, he did ask her if it bothered her, and she said no. So she basically set herself up for it. As soon as Groucho had the "OK", he ran with it. lol
they blame the contestants for using up all the time when on every other show Groucho stops the talking and starts the game whenever wants. Disingenuous! Don't tell me it happened 70 years ago ... I'm too involved :)
Very little difference except Groucho was a million times funnier and didn't ask contestants to get naked and throw baloney on their mayonaise-covered asses. Even Howard Stern woud find your comparison ridiculous,

the golden years of television. I was born in September of 56, and still remember this TV show playing in the late 50's
The Golden Age of America as well... if you ask most folks what decade they would most like to experience and I believe they would say 'The 1950's'!
So in 1959, when you were 3, you remember this?
George the announcer stays so professional no matter what anyone says or does.
Love George! What did he do before Groucho and after the show ended?

Groucho was a one in a million, a comic genius.
I had to watch this episode because of Esther, the last episode with her put a smile on my face!
Tony Curtis's MOM. That was a GREAT surprise and a lot of fun. She looks like Tony!
Tony looked like his mother.
@Julius Ashcroft

@Julius Ashcroft well, written. Your mamma taught you well. Ms. Mom Ashcroft must be proud.
I Love this show! They really don't make shows like they use to!
Did you just make that up?
They don't make Groucho's like they use to...
How can anyone dislike Groucho?? 🤩😂🎯😮
The people that were born from the 80s dont understand Groucho, for obvious reasons!
@@robertholman8730
I was born in 1990 and I grew up watching the Marx Brothers on tv.
I’ve been a big fan of Groucho’s ever since.
5/19/2024. Cigars.
His lighting wit was amazing.
Oh my word , one can spot the likeness with Tony Curtis mother , how lovely.
Groucho was brilliant. I wish I knew him.
Love, love, Fifi the sheep=headed girl! She is so charming even aside from the hair.
Loved the hair lady and her Mae West impressions!
Would love to have seen Groucho talking again at length with the last lady. Great to see her win some money!
The most entertaining show I have ever seen on TV, just quality all the way and the irreplaceable Groucho
You can tell Groucho is rooting for everyone when it comes to winning money
I'm going to watch all of these
YIPEE!
“Don’t they have revolutions for children?” Priceless!

Couldn't have said it better. . . my entry point to YBYL was Groucho, but what keeps me fascinated, for the most part, are the contestants.
Groucho Marx - You Bet Your Life will live in the cloud forever.
Bill Cosby 😂
Three nice people won a well deserved prize! Everything turned out right in this episode. :)
I Love these! Thanks So Much for the Upload!!
Wow! I didn't put two and two together. Didn't know that was Curtis' mother. What a sweet lady! He was very handsome and excellent actor. And a nice guy. Like Jamie Lee too.
I really liked the sheep headed woman. She should have been an actress
This was a hoot.
Wake up cameraman, you missed some Groucho dancing.
Lost to the ages
i feel old when i watch these repeats from the 50's --------- was only 3 when this aired
And your parents, Mr. & Mrs. Frap, why did they name you 'Frizzle'? 👀
@@MrMenefrego1 ------ it's a longgggggg story!
@@frizzlefrap I've got time. 👀
Fenneman's the world's greatest straightman.
He kept it very professional. Great job.

Interesting link that Groucho and Tony Curtis were both in a movie with Marilyn Monroe
The sailor is a WWll vet as he has three hash marks on his sleeve which is at least 12 years of service.

He's a trip. Better tv back then.
18:50 the lady suddenly launches into her 1930s Mae West routine … I loved her little eye roll. The audience got the reference
He'll play Groucho blindfolded lol. He's got time tonight after the show! Lol

Groucho that is one funny man I can't get over that he got that bloke to show him to sit down hahaha
Jamie Lee Curtis' grandmother
Yup, but not a whole lot of resemblance...ahem.
I saw Mrs Schwartz roll her eyes about Mr Cashton’s chess title. She’s probably thinking “that’s not a real job.” 😂😂😂 Rose has her nest egg and wants to keep it - smart lady. Miguel was really funny: “yes, I regret it.” Groucho knows how to get the best out of his guests.
Her son wrote in a book that she had severe depression and would beat him often. She is a dear one here
If I can't cheat , forget it!! LOL!!
Yes I remember the smog alerts they had in L.A. in the 70’s
How can Groucho not see the resemblance. He looks just like her. The eyes always gives it away. And his real name is Schwartz.
I decided to order a Dodge. DeSoto.! Has to be the year shown on this show! LMA0!!
🤕
Make sure to tell them Groucho sent you!
@@tbiz8459 I will !
She had to know Tony Curtis personally, because she said he has big blue eyes, but everything on television was black and white.
Says FiFI died back in 2006. Nice looking lady at the time.
Isaac Kashdan has exactly the body language I would expect of a chess master :)
When you go to your Plymouth dealer in 2024, bring mortgage papers.
what i find most fascinating between this and the prior episode, is that with the mother of tony curtis, an international chess champ, the crazy sheep lady, a guy from a country with one of the most used comedic appellate... its semi-bewildered housewife esther bradley who steals the show away from all of it!
FF11Freshstep She sure does! But I couldn't NOT use the image of the sheep-haired lady as the thumbnail. :)
she looks like one of those stupid troll dolls they had around in the 90's =^.~=
Esther was just as funny as Groucho. Groucho sure played off her and Esther never laugh at her own lines just like Groucho. Totally hilarious.
Vincint, your right its not the next week , Esther and all the other people( contestant ) are wearing the same cloths from " last week " they probably film 3 or 4 shows in a dat
Esther was so sweet.
thats amazing tonys curtis mother
“I would not want to be sitting behind you at a hair raising movie” LOL
Tony Curtis' mother ... And now I learn He was the father of Jamie Lee Curtis
I reckon 'Sheep Girl' would have been very interesting to hang out with.
What a personality, she even waved at the audience as she was ex siding the stage.
@@jeffdowler9130 'ex siding', is that a Show Business phrase?
True,Tony's last name was Shwartz
I'm disappointed that Groucho didn't get interview Mrs. Bradley again. She barely spoke this time!
Helen is the grandmother of Jamie Lee Curtis.
If it's February 1956, why are they selling the 1954 Plymouth?
Perhaps, Marty McFly might have the answer.
Lots of these episodes were missing the intro, producers later compiled the shows with whichever intro/outro they could find within a couple years.
True story. In the late 80's I bought a 54, 4 door Plymouth for 700.bucks. And I was driving it into Dallas on a hot summer day with my beautiful nose in the air girlfriend dress to the hilt and she was fanning her self, with no windows down because that would mess her hair up.

@@jeffdowler9130 And did you then "open the door, push her out and take it on the lam", Groucho style?
@@jeffdowler9130 Great story! lol... was the romance at an end after that?
Just love Tony Curtis is Mum poor and humble woman brilliant programme just look at this compared to the rubbish we was watching in the 1950s
HaHa Fi Fi the sheep headed girl!
The grandmother of Jamie Lee Curtis. This lovely lady was later diagnosed with Schizophrenia.
her son, Tony, resembles her mom, a lot !!
Tony Curtis spoke about his mother long after her death. He never knew from day to day if she'd slap him in the face or punch him in the face.
@@florinest Sadly mental health issues were still on the fringe in the medical community back then, though we have come a long way...even now it is still in the dark ages for many who suffer.
here is some info on Isaac Kashdan as well...

Shows how old this show is when that woman, who doesn’t look that old, remembers the SF earthquake.
15:33 classic 3 min of TV here
second couple Rose Westlake the woman gets to hear Groucho Marx use a double entendre .
I feel your pain, Fifi. But instead of cashing in on my abnormal hair texture, I just got the shit bullied out of me by my smooth-haired "peers".
Afro ala 1950’s ! 😳
Rose Westlake aka Fifi does a really good job of stealing this show, she out quips Groucho for sure, and she's not a bad looker ether. Ha ha.
I thought the same thing until she removed her hat... wow! It’s amazing it all fits in her hat! She might have been used to talking in front of crowds because of her hair performance.
She was in a carnival, where she Played a goat woman sideshow.
Groucho and Gene Rayburn were the best
The mom of Bernie Schwartz - Awesome!!!
I have always suspected that Tony Curtis had a mother. Glad to have my suspicions confirmed. ☺😉
The first Afro on tv!
She looks like a cross between Aunt Bee and the Bride of Frankenstein.
Wonder if you got a reduction if you told that Groucho sent you?
They gave free cigar
7.40 What does she say?
"You would just lose yourself"
❤️❤️❤️
This sounds like living in 2024?

10:30 FYI CDG didn't open until 1974.

Tony curtis`s mother!
Charlie Chuck's mother.
I don't think this really was a week later: Groucho is wearing the same tie!
They wore the same outfits throughout the 9 years!

lol,,,Groucho fucked her before and after the show
Holy Mackerel.
This was before they perfected afro hairdos.

Is Fifi part African American?
Yup I think so..
Nothing has changed the crazy people still seek out attention.

But still I love these shows!!!!!!!
She said right off the bat that everyone called her "Momma".
I like any kind of movie as long as Tony curtis isnt in it....I almost have to agree with Groucho on that.
Groucho was joking!!
I'm glad the trio won the money. Groucho made just a bit too much fun of Esther in the last episode.
Mid-jesting in the last episode, he did ask her if it bothered her, and she said no. So she basically set herself up for it. As soon as Groucho had the "OK", he ran with it. lol
They didn't have oversensitive PC Millennials back then
Exactly, anyone born in 70s and up doesn't have a clue!!
I can hair ya.
I wonder what her hair looks like DOWN THERE.
Probably the same as her head hair considering the timeframe
you mean, NOW?
