YOU BET YOUR LIFE & ROMANCE OF THE RANCHOS

We start off with “You Bet Your Life.” Groucho talks with a woman who met her husband when she fell into his drum kit, a “spinster,” and a lighthouse keeper. Then on “Romance of the Ranchos,” we visit the islands off the coast of southern California. If you’ve read Scott O’Dell’s “Island of the Blue Dolphins,” you may be familiar with some of the strange goings-on in these islands’ past.
