"You Bet Your Life" is a classic television game show that originally aired from 1950 to 1961, hosted by comedian Groucho Marx. The show featured contestants answering trivia questions for cash prizes, with a unique twist: they could wager their earnings on the outcome of a final question. The format included humorous interactions between Groucho and the contestants, often leading to entertaining banter. Contestants were selected based on their interesting backgrounds, and the show became known for its lighthearted approach to competition and its memorable catchphrase, "Say the secret word and win a hundred dollars."
