Texas Night
The show opens with the song "Hold Tight." Then Ripley's segment covers three topics: how April Fools' Day started, information about Albania, and a story about claiming the Suez Canal. Next, Governor Leo O'Daniel from Texas comes on to talk about four babies born at the same time in his state, in a piece called "A Brave Little Texan."
Ripley's Believe It or Not! is an American franchise founded by Robert Ripley, which deals with bizarre events and items so strange and unusual that readers might question the claims. Originally a newspaper panel, the Believe It or Not feature proved popular and was later adapted into a wide variety of formats, including radio, film, television, comic books, a chain of museums, and a book-series.
