I love it.
So what you're saying isyou don't get tired of those
Oh, yeah.
Oh, well, see, I always heard that.
Santa didn't like milk and cookies,but we're getting told right now,
because I always heard it was amyth, but you hear a lot of myths
around Santa, so actually Santa'sfavorite cookie is the snickerdoodle.
There it is.

Claus or the elves?
We're really puttingthem on the spot here.
And Mrs.
Claus is over here, so I don't know.

(04:09):
Best
gift is that Mrs.
Claus married me.
Oh, of course.
Love
it.
Worst gift, hmm.
Something from the elves.
I don't, I don't, just a snowballin the face, but that's about it.
Oh yeah, that's about it.
How often does it happen?
Not very often.
You know, they're Kindof tiny and I'm wiry so.
So do you throw them back at himor do you throw snowballs back?

I've knocked a few of themover a couple of times so.
No way, I believe that.
Snowball fights in theNorth Pole, can you imagine?
Sign me up for that.
So much fun.

reindeer?
Like do you do anything special with them?
They got any training
Interesting fact about thereindeer, they work in pairs.
They're mated
you hear about Donner andBlitzen and all those.

(04:52):
Blitzen is actually my favorite.
Oh, so Santa has told us he's got a
favorite reindeer.
Is
that breaking
news?
I think that is.
We gotta, we gotta get this out ASAP.
But the rest of
the reindeer are goingto be a little upset.
I know that all the kitties thinkRudolph is, is the be all end all of
the reindeer now, but uh, he has hisspecial occasion, his special moment.

(05:16):
Well, he lights
it up when it's foggy for you, right?
That's right.

I love to hear that.
That is so great to know.
What kind of
food can we leave for Blitzen this year?

They're busy and up all night.
Absolutely.
So, Santa, tell me, what are someof the things that make you laugh
or smile or do you have a favorite?
What makes me laugh and smileis baby's first Christmas.
I get to hold those babies.
Oh, it's so much fun.
They don't start crying untilthey're about, oh, a year old.

(06:05):
I lose them for a couple of years.
Then they're
back asking for their favorite toy.
An alligator.
Oh!
But here's the deal.
Santa's a toy maker.
I don't breed animals.
Oh, that's true.
So don't ask for pets.
I get asked for puppies and kittens,but I did get asked for an alligator.

(06:27):
An
alligator?
Were you in Florida?
I'm just curious.
I was
in Utah.
Utah?
Wow!
Right?
It was in Utah.
I can't believe it.
What?
I don't know.
How many of you
kids ask for an alligator out there?
Was it you?
No, Sam, you've been doing this fora long time, and I gotta ask you, and
I know people are kind of, you know,they're sensitive about their age, but

(06:47):
are you really as old as time itself?
As old as time itself.
So you've seen some crazy stuff out there?
Yes.
Now, I saw a movie once.
It just came out maybe last year.
It's got that sheriff fromStranger Things in it.
David Harper.
Yeah.
It's called Violent Night.

(07:09):
Is this based on a true story?
I heard it was based on a true storybecause it's a team of mercenaries that
come in and try to wipe out a wealthyfamily but Santa comes to the rescue.
Was that based on a true story?
Or can you not tell us?
I might not, I might, I mighthave to keep that on the down low.
Okay, fine.
You're always coming upwith the hardest questions.
That's true.
Okay,

(07:29):

What is your favorite holiday movie?
What's the most accurate portrayal of you?
Most accurate?
Not Violent Night, I guess.
