To Tell the Truth - Inventor of K-rations; Miss Australia (Mar 6, 1961)

[@keithnaylor1981]

Wonderful! Who would have thought that in 2020 the two best programmes on KZbin would be from the 50s/early 60s: To Tell the Truth and What's My Line! Amazing! KAN 5.20 UK

[@sidewinder666666]

Dr. Keys lived in the same assisted-living facility in Minneapolis MN where my parents lived for a couple years. He was unfortunately in bad shape by the time Dad told me who he was, and I never got the chance to talk to him. It was nice to see him in this TTTT episode.

[@fredsalfa]

All Australians could spot the the real Australian straight away by her accent and by the fact that the others didnt know where Melbourne, Port Moresby or Perth were.

[@jacquelinebell6201]

She has just turned 87! 1 year older than my mother. A good long life.

Do you know when New Guinea" changed its name to *Papua* New Guinea?

[@rmelin13231]

@@519djw6 I think it was in 1949, following the Papua New Guinea Provisional Administration Act.

[@retrorex]

It's great that you are posting new shows! TTTT is my favorite game show, so THANKS!

[@totellthetruthcbs4220]

I just wish I could promise the postings will be more regular from now on, but I can't. The whole reason for the long delays is that whenever I upload new material, I end up having to fight off false copyright claims on every show filed by Fremantle against this channel. If they don't voluntarily rescind the claims-- which they often do, but not always-- then I have to wait out a 30 day period for the claims to expire. This has happened over and over again. :(

Peggy Kass went 3 for 3 all on number 1. Peggy Kass became a long-time panelist. Kitty always had a great time on the panel. You could hear her laughing a lot in the background. Thanks for the video.

$50,000.00 in 1961 is comparable to 1/2 million in today's money.

[@scotth.9170]

I love this game. I got two out of three. I thought number 2 was the golfer because he knew his Palm Springs geography (Cathedral City and Indio).

[@lhale9176]

So fun to see just a nice ... innocent game show with no crude innuendos...just good entertainment.

Its different hearing those voices over the credits now. I recognised Harry Morgan later from MASH.

[@charlesmeadows6285]

Peggy Cass is the Belle of Boston,something Alan Kalter would make frequent reference to when he announced the Robin Ward-era.

[@scotth.9170]

Peggy would have made a great Jeopardy! contestant. I love how Wikipedia describes Peggy’s near encyclopedic knowledge on so many subjects.

[@jerrycruitt5375]

She really is fantastic.

[@rmelin13231]

She was, and my uncle was her banker (in Cambridge).

[@TruckTaxiMoveIt]

Once the question was asked 'what's a lipid' and the guy said 'a protein'; I knew he was a fraud

[@shuboy05]

As someone who looked up the Wikipedia article on K-Rations, I realized Number 2 was the other fraud when he said 1800 calories. The K-ration had nearly DOUBLE those calories (3200) and even that wasn't enough for active soldiers. Which is why Kitty chuckled when she asked if they were sufficient for soldiers. I was actually surprised by Kitty's knowledge in that game that I'm wondering if she knew someone from the military.

[@RonJDuncan]

That was exactly my thought - I knew that even before my culinary school days. At least by today's standards, I thought that was common knowledge - but was it back then?

[@neilmidkiff]

Dr Keys had a greater influence than he deserved. Recent reviews of his data show that he manipulated his findings, choosing cases that supported what he was trying to prove and discarding data that contradicted his assumptions. See "The Big Fat Surprise" by Nina Teicholz for details.

[@taofanarchy96-renzomaracas14]

He was a Scientism pioneer

[@sisterofnight451]

Also Dr Cate's research, on the Hateful 8 Oils her book Dark Calories tells.

[@jacquelinebell6201]

Fancy saying Melbourne is NSW lol. All us Aussies have worked it out lol.

[@racheldrum1982]

The real Ancel Keys is the nephew of Lon Chaney Sr. Maybe that would have given the panel too much of an assist-?

[@desertbreeze69]

Where is contestant #2 in the second segment from? I thought her accent was actually Australian.

I like her hair. Don't know why she went to those curly wigs tbh.

[@randysills4418]

In the first round, one of the contestants used notes!

[@MegaWetwilly]

Wonder how many ex military watching threw things at the TV when Dr. Keys came on.

[@J-w-sings423]

I voted for #3 for the same reason Ralph Bellamy did.

Miss Australia No 2 blew it when she answered the question: "I've never been to Aus... er.. Tasmania and geography isn't my strong point!"

I was amazed at how bad their Australian geography was. I voted for number 1 because she knew Port Moresby.

Executive Decision The whole reason that the postings here have been irregular is because of completely baseless copyright claims by Fremantle-- the company that owns Buzzr-- which I have to constantly fight off. Constantly. They did their best to destroy the entire WML channel last year-- the only reason they backed off is due to the justified outrage of the fan community, because if they hadn't backed off voluntarily, both the WML channel and this one would be gone now. KZbin doesn't even try to protect guys like me from predatory big media companies making false copyright claims. Beyond that, the Buzzr channel has been an absolute disgrace, running the same 50 or so episodes of the B&W shows over and over and over again since they launched last year, meanwhile doing everything they can to illegally stop anyone else from sharing these public domain shows. I'm sure you were completely unaware of all of this, which is why I'm explaining it. Fremantle MADE me an enemy. I had nothing but good will towards them till they started attacking my channels, and they haven't stopped yet, 9 months later. For these reasons, I really must request that Buzzr/Fremantle be left out of any discussions on this channel. It's like showing up to a Hatfield family reunion only to share delightful stories about the McCoys. When they stop attacking my channels, I'll stop asking people to not mention Buzzr.

[@desertbreeze69]

Kitty wears that dress quite often.

[@scotth.9170]

My favorite TTTT series was 1990 in the morning on NBC. When they announced “To Tell the Truth’s very own Kitty Carlisle,” the applause and cheers were loud and long as she walked so gracefully down the staircase. That was my favorite part of the show.

[@miamidolphinsfan]

in game 3, all those guys were really good. I picked # 3...I was wrong but don't feel too fooled LOL

[@rebeccagable9629]

Those of us from CA know that Indio is very near Palm Springs :-)

[@scotth.9170]

I eliminated number 3 because he did not know Indio. Number 2 impressed me with Cathedral City so I wrongly voted for him.

[@keithnaylor1981]

I could easily have believed No.3 in round 1 was related to Sgt Bilko, Phil Silvers!
