Mother Goose Stories
The show opens with a song called "The Man With The Mandolin." Next comes a segment called "Believe It Or Nots" that focuses on Mother Goose. B. A. Rolfe struggles to say the name of the second song correctly. In another story, a brave man named Richard Brooks jumped into the Monongahela River to rescue a boy who was drowning, which was amazing because Richard Brooks was blind.
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.
