Odd, October 13th was a Sunday, according to a google search. I thought they did these on Fridays or Saturdays.

nobody was ever anywhere *near* as fast as groucho with the quick line. he was always instantly making witty remarks that most of us would take a *month* to think of, if we could at all.

@xander7ful Yes, in the 1950s Red had played a sailor in Sayonara, for which he won an Oscar.

@thefools Welp, that explains a lot.

@GrandMaster2350 I think it's a film reference. I think Red Buttons was in a movie at the time where he was a sailor.

@marcjusz John Daly was born in South Africa. He knew Afrikaans, which has some German. Groucho probably knew Yiddish, which is somewhat German.

[Earthfart]

Groucho was the master. No one had wit like that.

Tony Randall got unusually quiet once he knew it was Groucho. I think he was in awe.
