Michael Jackson became a big time radio host in LA on KABC with a large following. He was also a big time liberal who enjoyed needling conservatives. As for Arnold Palmer, I was stunned that he came out without the panel being blindfolded. Even though it was 1960 he was the most famous golfer in America and it's amazing that not one panelist could identify him. He had been on the cover of Sports Illustrated, and even though they weren't televising golf that much, he would change everything. By 1961 he was one of the most famous atheletes in the world. Long live Arnie!

Arnold Palmer was one of golf's greatest blessings. He was not only a great golfer and very charismatic, he genuinely liked people, and he understood that golf needed the interest of the television crowd to succeed. He signed autographs by the millions, he responded to mail, he waved at the crowds when other golfers ignored the people who followed them. Any golfer who won a tournament could expect to find a note of congratulations from Arnie in the next week's mail, and even when he was in the last couple weeks of his life he wrote a note to a young girl who hoped to join the LPGA when she grew up. One young golfer who was practicing before an important tournament realized that someone was coming up from behind, and then realized that he had actually cut someone off. Arnold Palmer then asked, very politely, if he could join him. He was a great man in many ways. The sport would not be what it is if not for him.

What a stunning classy beautiful lady was Dinna Merrill 👍

It's funny how the panel is so uncertain about that new thing called rock n roll.

Bennett wasn't "uncertain" about it at all. He hated it.

Dina Merrill was always gorgeous!!!

she nailed the accent

two thoughts- this had to be right before arnold palmer became a household name. and second- i presume this is the same michael jackson who had a very popular west coast based radio talk show in the 1980s and 90s.

Yes, he is. And he continued on radio into the 2000's.

RIP-Arnold

Dina Merrill was a stunning & classy lady from her youth & into her old age. R.I.P., you are missed.

*I have tremendous respect for Mr. Jackson, as he went on to become the best known-known radio talk-show host in the Los Angeles area--and as he helped me a great deal when I was just a teenager. About five years after appearing here, he married the late Alan Ladd's daughter Alana, and remained married to her until her death in 2015. Mr. Jackson died in 2022.*

As it turned out, they should have blindfolded the panel for Mr. Palmer, although it may not have made it more difficult. Axx soon as they guessed the sport, they knew who it was.

Love it when they stump the panel.

In these days of the media covering every event, someone like Arnold Palmer couldn't come out without being recognized.

As many times as John Daly has explained the rules of the game, it's astonishing how often he gets it wrong. At 3:31 while explaining the rules to Arnold Palmer, he says "Every NO answer that you can get from the panel..." which is just backward. The contestant gives the NO or YES answers to questions asked by the panel.

Love these shows……
