Mrs. Lang: “I was married 25 years ago today” and her mother, Mrs. Becker: “I was married 50 years ago

Special guest Keenan Wynn: "I'm playing bingo with the audience"
Wynn was an incredibly busy and prolific character actor with star
presence who averaged about four films a year throughout the 1950s in a career
that ran from 1934 until his death in 1986.
He is the son of comedian Ed Wynn, the grandson of early Broadway and
film actor Frank Keenan, the father of screenwriter Tracy Keenan Wynn and the
grandfather of actress Jessica Keenan Wynn.
Charles Pfister from Wisconsin: “I ate 61 pancakes
at one meal” and Phil Yazdzik from Pennsylvania: “I ate 77
hamburgers at one meal”
There is a story in Norse mythology of an eating competition
between Loki and his servant, but mostly, 20th century face-stuffing
has been the stuff of state fairs and publicity stunts and “unofficial” world

figures like Takeru Kobayashi and Joey Chestnut would draw attention to
competitive eating in the 21st century, and today, Major League
Eating (yes, that's what it's called) is a professional sport. It is
perhaps most famously represented by the annual Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating
Contest, which began in 1916 and has been televised on ESPN since 2004. Yazdzik and Pfister will face each other in a
pancake eating contest on next week’s show [
