Strange as it Seems was a radio program that offered listeners strange and unusual tales about fantastic people and events. Based on the daily syndicated newspaper cartoon panels created by John Hix, the show featured a blend of dramatized events, mini plays, and fanfare music, all designed to entertain and educate the audience about the marvels of the world. The program typically included 2 or 3 dramatic segments, followed by an Ex-Lax commercial and 2 or 3 strange stories. The show would then conclude with a preview of the next show's stories, another Ex-Lax commercial, a quirky fact, and a short musical ending. Live interviews with unusual personalities, such as the World's Fastest Talker, were also occasionally featured.</p><p>The radio show first aired on March 22, 1935, on the Columbia Don Lee Coast radio network and was initially broadcast three nights a week. Later changes in the schedule and format occurred until December 1938 when the show ceased airing. The program returned as a 30-minute network program on the CBS network from August 17, 1939, to December 26, 1940. The show had a final run in its original 15-minute format from November 10, 1946, to April 13, 1947. Throughout its years of broadcast, the program had several sponsors, such as Ex-Lax and Palmolive Shave Cream. Many of the original programs were recorded on 16-inch 33 RPM records, with at least 39 of these records, encompassing a total of 78 programs, known to exist.
