Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to the Murphy Salmon Jody After the Show podcast.
Cue the Christmas music, Thank you uh So Tomorrow Sanna
joins us in studio live. If you're a brand new
Murphy Salmon Jody listener, Santa joins us every Friday in
the month of December before Christmas time, and so we
figured today we would just put you in the mood,
put you in a special place. Let you escape with

(00:21):
a few of our favorite moments with Santa from the
past few years to get you ready for tomorrow morning
on your nearby Murphy Salmon Jody station, or if you
can't hear it there, of orse, you'll get it tomorrow's
podcast right after the show.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
Guys, you know I like you a lot, but I
love Santa and he is here.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
Hello, hot am I here.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
You are my favorite guest all year. Lord Jody, Well, Lucy,
I live for when you say that to.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
Me, it's great to be here. This is my favorite
place every.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
Year you say that to Everybody's my pause because this
is the Paula Yay.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
It's about to get and get pretty busy for you.

Speaker 3 (01:06):
Say, oh, did you.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
Arrive on the sleigh or did you have a driver
bring you today. I didn't. I wasn't out with when.

Speaker 3 (01:14):
You Why I had a sleigh come bring me. It's
on the roof of this building.

Speaker 4 (01:18):
It see you have Uber at the north pall.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
We do? We do? We have elf Uber.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
It's different course, driven by Elves.

Speaker 4 (01:26):
Yes, in those cars.

Speaker 5 (01:28):
Huh.

Speaker 3 (01:28):
Well it's got a tiny front, sam a big back,
much like Missus Claws.

Speaker 4 (01:38):
That's only sixty seconds in and Santa's already we go.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
Oh my gosh, we've missed you so much. Have you
had a good year?

Speaker 3 (01:45):
Yes, it's been a very good year. I think people
have been trying to be very good and also they're
enjoying being together. They're enjoying the simple things, and I
think this is going to be a very special Christmas.

Speaker 4 (01:59):
Yay, you catch any concerts?

Speaker 3 (02:01):
Well, I tried for Taylor Swift tickets. That didn't.

Speaker 4 (02:06):
We'll cover that in a naughty and nice less coming on.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
Well, it gets it.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
I can't believe you didn't. You weren't able to work
that out. We think all your connections, you know, speaking
of things like that, how soon do you begin? You
and the Alves? Are you working all year long on
the making of things? Oh?

Speaker 3 (02:24):
Yes, yes, you start in January. We've got so many
things to make and so many things too. You know,
we have other corporations that help you know your gifts
for the kids.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
Obviously, another example of how Santa works smarter, not harder.

Speaker 3 (02:45):
Santa is not Jeff Bezos, but Santa does you know,
run a good operation the North.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
He's our favorite and he's back again.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
Who is he? He?

Speaker 2 (03:01):
Thank you for spending some time with us.

Speaker 3 (03:03):
Yes, I love spending time with you.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
I want to talk about something we have. In all
these years when we've had the privilege of visiting with you,
we haven't talked much about missus claw.

Speaker 3 (03:13):
Ooh, my favorite person.

Speaker 2 (03:15):
Right, and she does not travel with you because I
guess she has the whole down things she does.

Speaker 3 (03:20):
She runs the operation. You know, there's this misconception that
she sits at home and bakes cookies and that's all
she does.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
I know than that. Oh No, behind every big man.

Speaker 3 (03:30):
I mean wow, behind every big man there journeys. No,
it's okay, Sami gets a little chunky this time.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
I'm meant successful man.

Speaker 3 (03:42):
Oh well, behind every successful woman should be a supportive person.
My wife is actually the entire chief of the operation.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
I believe it.

Speaker 3 (03:55):
She engineers everything, organizes all of the toys and the liveries.
I would never do it. They talk about women in
stem you know, in technological positions. This is my wife
for the last hundred plus years.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
She's the original Coeo.

Speaker 2 (04:13):
She is.

Speaker 3 (04:14):
She is.

Speaker 4 (04:15):
Where did you meet her?

Speaker 5 (04:17):
Well, you know the movie you watch, But in real life, Sam,
we met by chance walking through the forest, and I.

Speaker 3 (04:33):
Think that is right. And there was a big log
in the way of her walking on her path in
the snow, and I pushed my foot on the log
and I swiped right and then she passed and that's
how we met.

Speaker 4 (04:51):
So you're taking credit for tender now why?

Speaker 3 (04:53):
Okay, only tender that starts wonderful fires in the fireplace.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
So tell me this. Do you guys celebrate Christmas after
your big journey? I know that you must.

Speaker 3 (05:08):
Oh, we have Aleather coming. Yes, absolutely, everybody at the
North Pole a celebration when Christmas is Christmas. That's what
we want it to be. Is everybody needs Christmas more
than ever. Right now, I hope.

Speaker 1 (05:25):
You're enjoying our Santa Cast flashback when Santa joins us
in studio tomorrow for all new email with kids and
calls and kids. You can send us emails at Murphy
Samonjody dot com. Send your love to Santa. Right now,
here's more of the Santa cast.

Speaker 2 (05:41):
Our favorite guest is back. I cannot wait, so let's
get right to it.

Speaker 3 (05:45):
Santa, where's your favorite guest? You are my.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
Favorite all year long.

Speaker 1 (05:52):
Welcome back, Thank you, And we know that it's getting
close to the big day for you.

Speaker 3 (05:56):
It's very close, Murphy, it's very close.

Speaker 1 (05:59):
We're on our that you're here.

Speaker 3 (06:01):
This is my busy season.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
But you know, I mean every year, kids everywhere write
down their wish and what they want to get, you know,
from Santa from the years, and you know, and it
doesn't always work out where you get everything that you
put on your list. What what what happens? Or what
do you say to somebody who doesn't get everything that
they want.

Speaker 3 (06:21):
Well, I mean sometimes a child who lives in an
apartment building wants a pony. That's not really a good idea, right,
and it's not good for the family or for them,
And so you have to learn that you don't always
get what you want. But in the words of the
Great Keith, you find sometimes you get that's right, you

(06:46):
do that's really good. Santa.

Speaker 4 (06:51):
Did you have anything to do with the writing of
that song?

Speaker 3 (06:54):
I inspired it a little bit.

Speaker 2 (06:55):
Yes, you must have something to do with his longevity too.

Speaker 3 (06:59):
Yes, I I think I gave Keith a head baden
one year and then in it were the lyrics to
that song very cute.

Speaker 2 (07:09):
It's true. It's a good question to ask because sometimes
and another thing that I want to just throw out
there is that even if you kids don't get to
sit on his lap at a store, or you don't
you know, you don't get if you never get to
send the email in Santa, you know what everyone wants.

Speaker 3 (07:27):
Right, no one wants I am. I am the Spirit
of Christmas. I'm not a person. I'm a spirit and
I'm the Spirit of Christmas. And it's in everyone's heart
if you will look there and you want it, and
it's especially in the heart of children. And what it
is is the fulfillment of wishes, of dreams, of little

(07:50):
things that mean something for a very short time. I mean,
all the grown ups listening and all three of you
think about all the toys you had that went away.
That's true, they worry all you wanted, But what stayed
were the memories and the spirit, and that's what I am.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
He's here, kids, not Murphy, Sam, Santa.

Speaker 1 (08:16):
Hello, Santa, hell.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
And we look Santa. You're gonna be with us every
Friday between now and Christmas.

Speaker 3 (08:23):
Yes, thank you for that Friday.

Speaker 2 (08:26):
Thank you for that. And so kids, you can email
him at murphysaman Jodie dot com. Let your mama dad
help you log on. Can we go ahead and start
some of those This is from Olivia, short and sweet,
Dear Santa. What if I can't fall asleep on Christmas
even I just have to fake being asleep? Will you
still come? Also? I want a kick, a kick scooter

(08:50):
and some surprises. I love you, Santa.

Speaker 3 (08:53):
I love you Olivia first of all, and yes, everything
you've asked for on bringing you, but you need to try.
Santa appreciates people trying to go to sleep. It's very hard,
and sometimes when you grow up and you're a grown up,
it's very hard to really be asleep. And that's a

(09:15):
good lesson to learn on Christmas Eve for kids.

Speaker 2 (09:18):
Right, Okay, so you'll still come even if they can't
pass for.

Speaker 3 (09:22):
Yeahs Olivia, just closed those eyes and dream of those
happy things and the memories You're going to make on
them and Santa will bring them to you.

Speaker 4 (09:31):
Thank you, Santa, Yes, so no ambient.

Speaker 3 (09:35):
I'm sorry, Sam, you.

Speaker 4 (09:37):
Know I do you know? With with with with her
asking that question? I want to know what's what is
the most unusual thing you've been asked for over your
eons of christmasing?

Speaker 3 (09:48):
Well, years ago there was a woman who asked for
a man named Sam to be good to her and
a long term rew many. I'm asked this question quite
a few. That's the strangest. I never know what to
do with that.

Speaker 4 (10:07):
Yeah, me either.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
Well, teach you to ask Santa tough question. Oh man ah,
nicely played, Well played, Santa.

Speaker 3 (10:18):
Kids.

Speaker 2 (10:18):
You can email Santa at Murphy Salmonjody dot com. You

Speaker 4 (11:02):
And where this is going about Sam?

Speaker 1 (11:04):
How did he do?

Speaker 3 (11:05):
I would rather not say.

Speaker 4 (11:08):
I'm going to Sam is the fifth like everybody in
Washington these days.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
Sam, you know the truth about him, don't you, Sam?

Speaker 3 (11:15):
Sam, I only take the twenty fifth.

Speaker 2 (11:21):
Quickly. You know. The truth about Sam is that he's
actually the grinch. The heart is so big that he
has to put a barrier around himself. Exactly right, That's
exactly who he is.

Speaker 1 (11:30):
What is that?

Speaker 4 (11:31):
Jody? You have emails from the kids?

Speaker 2 (11:34):
I do from Murphy, Saman Jody dot com and Santa
will be back with us next week if you'd like
to email him now, kids, you have plenty of time.
This is from Justin. I'd like a zero gravity laser
race car. Is any color is fine? Well? Samton knows
what it is. I don't know what it is.

Speaker 3 (11:51):
It's a cool little race car, it is.

Speaker 2 (11:54):
And Justin goes on to say, I have been good.
We'll leave you some peb and Jay sandwiches like last year.
I love you.

Speaker 3 (12:02):
That's one of my favorites.

Speaker 4 (12:03):
You're kidding you have a preference on peanut butter.

Speaker 3 (12:07):
I like I like it smooth, Sam, when you take
on crustables too. If we're talking about treats, yes, we're
getting like all trees.

Speaker 2 (12:20):
Fanta, you're getting a little you have a little A
little round Bunks is here with Sam. So let's get
back to the kid's email. Hi, Santa, this is Ella
and Emily. We love you. We've already watched The Polar
Express this year.

Speaker 3 (12:33):
Oh, I love that movie.

Speaker 2 (12:35):
I'd like a squish Mellows box. Yes, and Emily wants
Holiday Barbie.

Speaker 3 (12:41):
Ooh, Holiday Bobby.

Speaker 2 (12:43):
That's awesome. There's a redheaded Holiday Barbie this year.

Speaker 3 (12:45):
I do what I saw. You were very excited about it.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
It was my first Christmas present much earlier, like a
week months ago.

Speaker 3 (12:52):
People need to identify themselves in representation in cartoons and toys.
It's very important.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
It doesn't matter. They go on to say, Mom said
not to ask for too much. Also, please don't worry
about my dog Max. He sleeps with us and won't
growl at you this year.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
No, Max is a good boy. I know Max. Max
said hello to me last year. He growled a little
and then I petted his head and he was very
nice to me, and I brought them all the things
they wanted.

Speaker 2 (13:20):
Thank you, Santa, keep your email coming kids to Murphysaman
Jody dot Com more with Santa. Next, Santa Claus is
with us. Thank you for spending this time. It's so
special and precious.

Speaker 3 (13:33):
I love this time with you all.

Speaker 2 (13:35):
Are you okay with like? Anything goes questions on, I'm
going to start. The guys may jump into okay, kids
need to know this. I want to know this. How
do I know where to go? See you? Like? You've
got all kinds of appearances all over the place.

Speaker 4 (13:52):
I do.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
And you know you're at bass Pro, and you're at
the mall, and you're at the Children's Village, and you're
in this place and that place. So how do I know?

Speaker 3 (14:03):
Well, first of all, remember that Santa can be many
places at one time. That's how I get all the
toys in presents delivered magic. But also I have lots
of helpers. And the fun thing about my helpers is
that I choose them. They're very carefully chosen and they
have the same spirit as Santa. But sometimes the one

(14:24):
that you find in the mall, or in the store
or at the celebration at the festival is really me.

Speaker 2 (14:32):
I know, I know, I really was with you that
year that the kids that Phoebe would not sit on
your lap and life I got in.

Speaker 3 (14:40):
That was me.

Speaker 2 (14:41):
That's one of our favorite pictures.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
That is one of our favorite pictures. And the one
that I know that wasn't you was the year that
our oldest daughter Taylor had a dirty diaper.

Speaker 3 (14:49):
Well, sometimes I hand those off to the help.

Speaker 4 (14:53):
The helpers you use. It's not like two elves on
top of each other.

Speaker 3 (14:58):
Oh Sam, It's not like two Sam in an overcoade. No,
it's it.

Speaker 2 (15:02):
It's like part of your gang. Huh, it's it is.

Speaker 3 (15:05):
It is really truly Santa's helpers who have good spirits
and the same exact spirit as Santa.

Speaker 2 (15:12):
Yes, I love it.

Speaker 3 (15:13):
So wherever you're going to see Santa, you're going to
have a special experience. Or maybe you'll have a dirty
diaper and Santa will have a special experience.

Speaker 4 (15:23):
Yeah. The reindeer team you use today to get here,
is that the ones we all know? Or do you
have the B team or the C team?

Speaker 3 (15:31):
Yes? I mean, generally, if the weather is cloudy, I'll
start with Rudolph, and then I use a three reindeer
team when I'm not delivering a toy.

Speaker 4 (15:41):
Yeah, you don't have to load all those toys.

Speaker 3 (15:42):
Yes, Usually it's Rudolph, Dasher and dancers. It's sort of
the go to team. It's like my private jet, right.

Speaker 4 (15:50):
I mean, prances Are and the Red Vixen. They don't
all get upset like, oh you get to go again,
not at all.

Speaker 3 (15:55):
They very happy they're back.

Speaker 4 (15:57):
You know, as soon as you leave and get over
the horizon, that's when the talking starts.

Speaker 3 (16:03):
No, I have a reindeer cam on my phone. I'm
watching right now. All right, they're doing fine.
