I came across this clip from You Bet Your Life, with Emma Gatewood as a contestant, and Groucho interviewing her. This was before she hiked the AT but had already walked the Oregon Trail and the Centennial Trail.
I did not realize Grandma Gatewood was so 'stout.'
I know that guy was just trying to be funny about how the 'women are in charge' when the tired husband comes home, but that must have been painful for Gatewood to hear given how terribly she was abused.
Glad to see Emma won some money to pay for her AT hike
