I just wanted to this Christmas, give you all a little sweet chin music to show you that old Santa's still got it. I think that would have went right over my head. Yes, well, that's right. That's. It's really just for the trolls. It's for the naughty list. Right? Well, the trolls, they stand guard. You know, we have a love hate relationship with the trolls. It's true. They keep it safe here at the North Pole. They do. You got to keep them in line. That's true. The very commodity you need to. Very naughty. You need to keep your Kringle hand strong. That's true. Which I have to take this glove off because of. You know, I have to use electronics now. But we're so glad to be with you, and we are happy to welcome you to our annual Christmas special where we give back. And many of you have sent us some. Some letters and some organizations, and we pick those that we think are doing the most good and those families that are most in need and do a little bit that we can to help. Yes. And I know that sometimes thinking about what's going on in the world, it feels like a drop in the bucket, but I tell you what, it certainly goes a long way for those folks. So we very much appreciate it. And by the way, the only way we're able to do this is by your support here at the North Pole. You all have been supporting Mug Club for a long time. And now that's Rumble Premium. You can click the button if you're watching on Rumble and join and know that every dime that you. You spend here. $99 a year. If you want this wonderful mug, which is a great Christmas gift or even $9.99 a month, helps us to give back, and we do it all year round. But it's a very special time. And this year, this time of the year, we just want to make that. That smile a little brighter and maybe wipe away one extra tear. So welcome, and as always, my two top elves, I'm using that term a little loose. I'm just kidding. I'm. I'm just crinkling you there. All right. Elf Gerald, how are you? I am well, Santa. How are you? Did you throw your back out with that sweet chin music? I did not throw my back out. Wait till you see the tombstone. Oh, boy, I can't wait. Oh, I tell you what. There's nothing like a good tombstone. Annual wrestling Matching at a brisk North Pole air. Yes, but it's. It's all pretend. You know, we do it well. These are soft toed boots. Say that to the elves. You kick out of the ring, Santa. Oh, come on now. You know we don't. We have weight glasses for a reason, Gerald. That's true. Gerald's in a weight class. All that's true. It's just him. He didn't used to be, but too many injuries. That's true. One year. And by the way, elf Joshua is here with us. That's right. Very glad to have you. You know that one year we did have him do the royal rumble with the. Well, we called it the Troyal rumble. We brought in the trolls and. Well, the problem is it was a gross violation of safety standards. So we won't do that again. That's true. Yeah, it violated the North Pole. Osha. So that's true. They don't understand the trolls. The difference between a shoot and. And a work. Work. We said troll. This is a work. And they would say shoot. No, no, no. It's a work. They didn't understand what that meant. They didn't understand English. But I tell you what, you gave it your level best. Well, thank you very much. I appreciate it. And that's what matters most at Christmas, really. Is everyone here doing our best. That's what you can do. You can never be perfect, but you can do better. And you can do that with every choice, every decision, and you can do it all year round. And for example, elf Joshua, you know, he's not the tallest and he didn't score the highest on the, the, the elf sets, but I don't think we have to revisit that. Well, he makes up for it by bringing a smile to everyone's face.
- [07:10]
C
That's right.

B
And I've been working real hard trying to keep up with AI. That's right. It's been hard. Taiwan's giving us a run for our money this year. I know, I know. That's the thing. It's that elf, you know, our latest favorite elf, Nvidia. Oh, wow. Let's go with that. I've never seen him, but. No, but I hear a lot. He's all. That's. That's a thing. You know, people don't like the North Pole. We. It's a very loving place. It's very happy place here at the North Pole and we're very blessed to have a wonderful community. But a big part of that also comes from old Kris Kringle's law And order. You can't have love and you can't have really are. We have a 0 crime rate at the North Pole, but that's because it's kind of like a Nordic Singaporean that I'm a benevolent dictator. We. We love our supreme leader. That's right. It's. Well, it is. Say that if you treat your fellow elves right and you're good to all the boys and girls out there, then it's the happiest place on earth. But by God, if you spit that bubblegum out there on the frosty sidewalk, we will candy cane you. Well, we're a culture of respect and honor. Yes, that's. That's right. Last time we had one of those elves who was. Who was naughty, which. I don't know how that happened. I don't know how we had a naughty elf. Somehow they made it through. And I said, how does it feel knocking at the gates of Hades? My friend cleaned it right up. That's right. It's a happy place. But what do you think knows where you're sleeping? It's a surveillance state. Yes. Fire and ice rule by fire and ice. It is, but. It is. It's what? We have law and orders with the elves. Because you have to understand, the North Pole is a very difficult place. I don't know if you are aware of gigantism in the animal kingdom. The colder it is or the deeper it is, the bigger the animals get. So the moose that we have, I mean, there's high as a skyscraper here. Wow. So we all have to be in line and make sure that we keep the reindeer safe, make sure no one runs off with the toys. And that's what Gerald's here for. He's some elven muscle. That's right. Yes. All those fights with the trolls really prepped him up. It really did. See, that's the thing. It's like. It's like swinging a weighted bat. A weighted candy cane, if you will. Then when you just have a normal candy cane, you're on Easy Street. I knocked the gumdrops out of the park. Right. That's true. And by the way, that's the street we actually have. Easy Street. I live on Easy Street. It is. It's a wonderful street. It's kind of a hard life. It can be. Everyone wants to live on it. That's true. It's really. And the problem is, if you let all the elves in, well, there go the property values on Easy Street. And now it's middling street. Well, luckily, we work 24 hours a day. So there's no rush hour. That's true. And we did take special precautions, especially after the 61 North Pole riots. Yes. Which in the grand scheme of riots, they were really positively tame. It was just a few snowballs being launched at the toy shop. But we said, you know what? We better nip this in the bud. And made sure it was safe for all. We had a lot of fun cleaning it up. That's true. Well, the good part about snowball fights when you're in the North Pole is there's not that much cleanup. It just is, especially if you eat it. That's true. That's true. That's a little known fact. All of our snow at the North Pole is actually powdered sugar. Yes.
- [10:23]
C
Really?
- [10:23]
B
Mm. It's been tested. We've had people ingest it. Look at their glycemic index, Say, ho, ho, ho. It's true. I didn't know that. It's North Polestantiation, we call it. I thought it was tasty when you consume it. Hey, let me ask you before we get to our first family, our first organization, because we have a lot of. Lot of help we want to dish out. What's your favorite part of Christmas? Oh, elf Joshua. I think my favorite part of Christmas is climbing up that tree and putting the ornaments on. That's right. You do that very well. And, you know, we didn't know if he could because he was a little elf. We used to have the abominable snowman until he retired. And. And I tell you what, elf Joshua, he beat his time. It took a lot of. It took a lot of time and effort. I had to learn some climbing skills. I had to. I had to learn how to rappel. That had its challenges. That definitely is little elf fingers and a big rope. It was really hard, especially with all the pine needles. It's easy to get caught.
- [11:15]
C
Yeah.
- [11:16]
B
How about you, elf Gerald? Not to put you on the spot, but go the Christmas carols. Oh, wonderful songs with all the other elves. Oh, sing one. Fantastic. Oh, you want me to sing Jingle bells, Jingle bells. Well, that's enough. Well, we didn't let him in the actual choir. No, we didn't. We didn't. We let him practice the North Poley in a boys choir. It's. It's for boys. And that means the cutoff is 242. Come Santa Claus hit. No. Well, I'm already here. He's here. There is Santa Claus. There is. Oh. You see, the problem with elf Gerald is that short attention span. He's living in Christmas past. He always tries to do a solo. I know. That's the thing. It's not all about. Don't always make it about you, Gerald. You have a lot of good qualities, but that's not holy. Progress just for progress sake isn't always great. That's exactly right. Hold on. Sometimes you just gotta stick to the classics. Let me look into the Ghost of Christmas Future. You're still not in the choir. Belize Navidad. Oh, boy. Well, no, then we're gonna start singing Swahili and he'll try and fake that. I'll try again. Luckily, I can tell you in Spanish. No, that's right. That's right. It's pretty much universal. That's okay. Nay. Nein. Which, you know, is actually a beautiful language, but sort of got a bad rap after the 40s and we don't really use it universally anymore. The German. Well, that's what happens when you go to war with the world, you know, so twice. That's tr. That was extra naughty. I mean, you two wrongs don't make a right. I don't even know how that happened. We were at the North Pole. We were looking at our big globe going, they're at it again. So that's why this is a time of year where it's peace on Earth, goodwill toward men. There are all kinds of stories, even during times of war, where people have put down their arms and come together and realize that, you know, we can be good to each other, if even for a moment. And then sometimes they go back to fighting. So it's not always the best ending. But for a lot of these families this year and these organizations, they've made happy endings for a lot of people. And that's really what we're all about here. We appreciate your support. So let's get on with our annual special where we give back Take Us Away, Tool Man. Every year, we also partner up with some other organizations, some places that do a lot of good because Santa can't do it all. And the folks at One Tribe foundation are giving back to over 25 families this year. I'd like to read you their mission because they do a lot of good. It's to grow a community that raises awareness and combats suicide by empowering veterans, first responders, medical frontline workers, and their families through traditional and non traditional therapies. That's what this foundation does. And I said doves, because I have doves on the brain. We have to release them to signal Christmas. The two turtle doves I meant to say does. That's right. Two turtle doves. But people don't realize there's actually more because every version of the song requires new avian participants. It's true. It's all birds. And then we have to have the stand ins their understudies. Way too many doves. Here's the point. Lot of cleanup. I tried to do pigeons one year, but it did not work. No, no, no. They were dumb. No, we. They can be trained. But that's instinct. It's not intellect. That's true, yes. I mean, species are different. It's what makes us all special. I suppose so. My elves had the privilege of joining one tribe themselves for a wrap party at Kapell high school where students wrapped presents and they made cards for all the families they were helping who were in need. Let's take a watch.
- [14:54]
C
We are one tribe foundation and we do what's called a season of giving campaign. Every year. Some families who've been affected by a tragedy or lost a parent or has a parent fighting a terminal illness, we adopt those families. So this year we've adopted, I believe, 27 or 28 families. And what we do is we get with coach staff, we get with the athletic director, and we say, hey, look, this is what we want to do. We want these kids to show up, these student athletes and wrap all these presents and we'll do it inside the field house, weather permitting, and they'll get to be a part of something greater than them. And that's the point of giving back. That's the whole reason behind Christmas. And so the fact that these kids show up, they don't have to be here, it's very humbling to us. One Tribe foundation, our foundation started in 2013. We started as 22 kill with the 22 push up challenge predominantly focused on veteran suicide and the suicide epidemic amongst the veteran class. And so we've evolved since then to one tribe foundation. And we're a full blown mental and emotional wellness organization. And we help veterans, military first responders, law enforcement officers, frontline healthcare workers and their families because that's what this country was built on. You know, it was built on leaning in loving hard and helping your fellow human to get through whatever it is that they're struggling with. And we can't do it alone. It's very humbling to see this. To us, it doesn't matter. Race, color, creed, religion, socioeconomic status, background, we don't care. We just want to help people live well.
- [16:29]
B
That's it.
- [16:30]
C
Because we know what it's like to struggle. And the only way to do that is to lean in and love hard in order to live well. And so these kids are a prime example of providing opportunity. They want to help. Just give them a vehicle. That's what God wants us to be, is joy and happy and feel joy and exhibit joy the way God intended. And that's what we're trying to do, is we're trying to show them, like, hey, listen, you don't have to do something amazing or be getting recognition to feel good about you. You can do something like this, and it has the same effect and the same outcome. It is a lot of presents. A lot of presents. Like, we had to bring one of our trailers for all the presents to fit. And so, you know what's great is, is that we adopt these families and we just deliver the presents and we tell them, hey, we don't need any recognition. We don't. This is about whatever you want to do. Everybody's got three things of value. Time, talent, and treasure.
- [17:29]
B
Right?
- [17:29]
C
And if you're not willing to sacrifice some of one of those three things, you're just talking. If you want to help be a part of something greater than you'll ever be, and you're willing to sacrifice some of one of those three things, we would love to be a beneficiary of that. We're very grateful for the support the show, support the love. We're very grateful.
- [17:47]
B
Right?
- [17:47]
C
And this is. This is soul food for us, too. Thank you guys for being here.
- [17:54]
B
Oh, that's wonderful. It's really great to see all the kids taking part because it's important for them to learn that, you know, not everyone gets a whole lot at Christmas. And so it's a great time of year to start helping people. Thinking of someone else other than yourself, please welcome back a friend of the program, Mr. Jacob and his wife Ashley from one tribe. There we are. Jacob, good to see you again, buddy.
- [18:24]
C
Good to see you, Santa. Sorry we were running late. My sleigh's not as fast as yours.
- [18:29]
B
No, I understand. I get it. Especially if it's gm. I always advocate. Look, they don't all celebrate Christmas, but go Japanese. The Koreans aren't doing so bad either. Good. Korea. Not. Not bad Korea, you know, and There's. There's the Mrs. Ashley. Hi, Ashley.
- [18:51]
A
Hello, Santa. Nice to see you.
- [18:53]
B
Oh, what a wonderful couple there. And look. Look at that. I see the antlers behind you. That's a new look. It's rustic. You're sort of. Sort of like what Tucker Carlson wants to make his set look like.
- [19:06]
C
Yeah, yeah, we're actually, I'm actually a guest here at my wife's daughter Daughters of the Republic of Texas chapter meeting and they're having their Christmas meeting. And so I get to just be a. Be a sit in finally. And it's nice.
- [19:26]
B
I understand. Sometimes, you know, I have to run the big show. I'm the head honcho, you know, and sometimes it's nice to just sort of of be riding. Be riding passenger, you know. That's right.
- [19:36]
C
Today I just get to be arm candy.
- [19:39]
B
There you go. And what arm candy you are. Look at that. He's got those silver streaks right there. Candy cane. I like it. That's the arm candy cane. Those are those. That's the quality of puns you can expect from elf Gerald. But we keep him around. You know, I've been making toys. You guys are making me hungry. I know, I know. But careful now. We can't get your insulin until we. Yes, at the North Pole it takes a long. We don't have next day shipping here. We don't.
- [20:04]
C
No.
- [20:04]
B
You just assume.
- [20:06]
C
I'm not shocked. You guys are a far way away.
- [20:09]
B
It is a far way away. Plus we have security. They have to go through the doorman, but that's enough about. So for everybody at home, can you share a little bit about your background? People may be new this year, your founding of one tribe and what it is that you do.
- [20:22]
C
Yes, sir. So I'm a third generation combat Marine after my uncle and my grandfather. I was severely wounded conducting combat operations in the Sunni Triangle in 2004 in Iraq. And I ended up spending 18 months in the hospital. And you know, people don't understand that when you leave a combat zone and you make it home, the tragedy doesn't stop. There wasn't a three, four week period that would go by that I wasn't paying my respects to a flag draped body in the hospital. And when I left the hospital, I was a full blown drug addict. And that carried over into alcoholism and so on and so forth. And I had to battle those demons. And I tried doing it alone. And I realized that regardless of how strong I think I am, I wasn't strong enough to fight those alone. And I needed to ask for help and that was the strong thing to do. And being severely wounded and having a prosthetic leg and the scars that I've got, it's abundantly apparent I had a rough day at work somewhere along the line. And those men and women though that have served and given of themselves, they don't have the visible scars that I've got. And it's the scars that you can't see that will be a detriment to your well being if you don't have the courage to ask for help. And so in 2012, a study from the VA came out stating that on average, 22 veterans died by suicide every single day. And so we've been trying to curb that number through various programs and we since evolved into One Tribe foundation, meaning the human tribe have. We're all in this together. Everybody fights demons, everybody struggles, everybody has a past. But everybody deserves a shot at living well. And that's what our hyper focus is. In order to selfishly, I want. I need my good to outweigh my bad. And I don't think I'm there yet. And so before God pulls my card and calls me home, I want to make sure that I surround myself with people better than me, like my wife. And then by default I'll be better. And so that's what I do. And then we work tirelessly throughout the year to help as many men and women and their children as we can because it's a family issue, not a singular issue.
- [22:36]
B
Well, and I appreciate you saying that. I know this isn't the first time we've talked, Jacob, but you know, I will tell you. Don't. I wouldn't overstress it. It doesn't work that way because you live in a state of grace. So helping other people just because it's something that's on your heart and you want to do that's enough. You don't. There's not two books of good and bad that's thrown as far as the eye can't even see when we ask for forgiveness. And that's what Christmas is about. It's that season. It looks like you have a good lady there. I assume you forgive him even when he leaves his beard hairs in the sink, right? He actually doesn't.
- [23:10]
A
He is truly one of the cleanest men I've ever known.
- [23:13]
B
Really?
- [23:14]
A
Well, he is. He's very ocd.
- [23:16]
B
Okay.
- [23:17]
A
And so our house is always immaculate. I'm so blessed.
- [23:21]
B
Well, we'll put that in the good book. Yes.
- [23:24]
C
Perfect. Yeah, I'll take. I'll take it. As many as I can get in the good column as possible.
- [23:28]
B
And let me ask you, I've had it also explained to me by a lot of veterans. You know, Santa spends a lot of time with them that some of them have described it sometimes as anti ptsd. Meaning people think it's just the shock, but they said sometimes it's more difficult to deal with the comedown from being in a high stress situation and learning to read, adapt, coming back into life, where sometimes we ask people to go out and deal with the worst that the world has to offer, and then it's difficult for them sometimes to find their place when they're back amongst friends. Have you found that to be a big challenge too, learning to adapt and not maybe be so high strung?
- [24:07]
C
Absolutely. And that's one of the biggest problems that we have is that, you know, we have a baseline when we leave our country and then when we go to whatever foreign entity we're sent to and we experience high stress environments, we lose that baseline. And when we come home, even when we're in our hometowns, we feel like aliens in our hometowns because we live an abundantly different life in that world than what civilians do here. And so what we're trying to do is empower these men and women and their children because we believe post traumatic stress is contagious, especially in the family environment. And what we're trying to do is empower these men and women and their children in order to implement post traumatic growth.
- [24:56]
B
Right.
- [24:56]
C
So they can understand that, hey, look, there's nothing wrong with you. It's nothing more than a normal reaction to an otherwise abnormal situation.
- [25:05]
B
It makes you normal, right?
- [25:07]
C
It makes you normal. And so we're empowering these men and women through various programs and traditional, non traditional therapies to let them he'll forward and do it with the foundational love to let them know they're worthy of being loved and they're worthy of loving. Because as you well know, everything in your life will depend on how you feel when you stare at the person looking back at you in the mirror. Everything will be dictated on that emotion. And so we're trying to get them to forgive themselves for everything they've done in order to survive up at which point they're at in their life right now so they can truly start to heal and love themselves forward to where then it becomes a force multiplier for the greater good.
- [25:47]
B
Oh, that's very well said. And sometimes the person looking back in the mirror might be better than others because your miss is there. What she sees in the mirror is better than the rest of us. Boy, the way we all look right now, if I could look back and see a face like, I'd say, well, I'm doing okay. You know, this is something to it. Santa has a Little bit in common with that. I don't know if you know this Winston Churchill, they didn't want him. He was very difficult. They were dealing with the Nazis, which, you know, Santa, that was a tough time for us. They said, we can't have. We need to bring back Churchill. Everyone wanted him during a time of war to do the difficult deeds that needed to be done. And a lot of people don't know that he was gone two years later because often men of war who are needed are not appreciated or they can be difficult during times of peace. And that's why, you know, I have a very busy time of year. And Mrs. Claus is very good about this. Usually somewhere after Easter, before maybe spring break, she'll look at me and say, kris Kringle, you still matter because no one's thinking about me. So that goes a long way. Just letting people know out there that, hey, someone's still thinking of them, Someone still cares about them when they're not out there doing what most people can't do and they're not appreciated. And I also wanted to ask you because we do have some, some. Some more children to get to.1 million push ups completed I've heard at one tribe. What. What's that there? You can. You did not do those all in a row. Those can't be. Those can't be competitive level reps. I don't believe it.
- [27:15]
C
No, I did them well before the push up challenge in the Marine Corps because we do 1, 2, 3, 1.
- [27:20]
B
Right.
- [27:21]
C
And then so we decided not to go with Marine Corps push ups, but regular push ups because we needed people just to do regular push ups.
- [27:29]
B
Right.
- [27:29]
C
So we, we definitely have exceeded that. And it was a tremendous collective effort to raise awareness because you can't change anything without knowledge.
- [27:38]
B
Right.

C
And so the point was education first. And so we've since evolved into what we are now. And by the grace of God, we're still operational and affecting a lot of lives every single year in a very positive way. And so the push ups were a great vehicle to get there. That was early on when all we knew how to do was to get together and be a show of force and intimidate people into doing what they otherwise wouldn't do.
- [28:05]
B
Well, it's a great way to raise awareness and it's also a good way too, for people who maybe replace a bad habit with a better habit. And sometimes people come back from high stress situations and they. They find a lot of catharticism in physical activity. I don't know. By the way, Are you familiar with Santa does belly push ups? Do you know what those are? It's where I, I lay on the ground. Now see a lot of people don't know I have this over some abdominal muscles so they still work. You know, I lay on the ground and then I flex and just let my belly lift me off the ground.
- [28:38]
C
Yeah. That's amazing Christmas magic.
- [28:41]
B
It is. Yeah.
- [28:42]
C
I don't have that ability.
- [28:44]
B
Yeah, well, some people call it the north pole plank but I'm the one who originated it. Well, thank you so and I do have one last thing for you but Jacob, it's always good to see you.

Hey Mug Clubbers and Crowder viewers.
- [32:14]
B
Jeremy from the Quarter, you may have seen me on the show before. Hello Steven Crowder and Mug Club. My favorite family Christmas tradition is my family waits with bated breath to see whether or not I fall off the roof each year as I'm putting up our Christmas lights. I like putting Christmas tree lights on the house with my dad. Gloom on the roof. What's your favorite family Christmas tradition? Kwanza.
- [32:40]
C
It's the one holiday that no matter what I get to spend with my family.
- [32:45]
B
Either that or I get completely disowned. Merry Christmas from the China Show. Merry Christmas everybody.
- [32:51]
C
Especially the people that enjoy both this show and the China Show.
- [32:56]
B
Christmas is a great time. It's one of the few times a year people like Stephen and myself can get a few days away to relax. There was only one Christmas tradition that everyone should love and it's going and picking out your Christmas tree. I like going and buying a Christmas tree out Christmas tree farm. I know not everybody gets to go to the actual field of trees and actually cut down the tree, but that's one of the most fun things you can do.
- [33:19]
C
Me and my dad have always had this thing for apple pie.
- [33:23]
B
Warm apple pie with vanilla ice cream.
- [33:25]
C
Not usually a sweet sky, but man, any holiday we will tear that.
- [33:30]
B
My favorite Christmas memory was actually Christmas in November in Asia. It's Wild to see a very different culture's take on Christmas. Santa plays saxophone for some reason.
- [33:42]
C
It used to be going to my Aunt Carol's house.
- [33:45]
B
My Uncle Bob would have, like, three vodka tonics before we got there, would wrestle.
- [33:50]
C
My favorite thing to do is watch.
- [33:51]
B
Christmas movies and also suggest movies that maybe people don't know about.
- [33:56]
A
Number one, we love to watch the. The movie Christmas in Connecticut, 1947.
- [34:00]
B
I think eight bit Christmas.
- [34:02]
C
If you like the original Christmas story.
- [34:03]
B
It'S a more updated tale.
- [34:05]
A
Secondly, the whole family sits around and watches It's a Wonderful Life, except we watch it like we're watching the Rocky Horror Picture show with bells, which you ring when Clarence comes on. Whenever Mr. Potter comes on the screen, you have to hiss like a snake. Whenever Sam Wainwright comes on, you have to do the heel, which, you know, if, you know, you know, and the.
- [34:27]
B
Leftovers, which I absolutely loved. And, well, home Alone, but you guys.
- [34:32]
C
All probably watch that, too.
- [34:33]
A
And we try to make the whole period super celebratory. And it's one of the reasons why we all look forward to this stint as truly the most wonderful time of the year.
- [34:48]
B
It's a difficult responsibility that they assigned to the number one toy giver.
- [34:55]
C
Me.
- [34:57]
B
You know, they. I never got a writing credit on that one. Really? Never. Oh, it's outrageous. It's a shame. That's a. That's a Kris Kringle original. I had a. I had a career in another life, you know, about 875 years ago, but it never took off. Not like old Santa's sleigh. This is my calling. Some paint with oils, pastels. I make toys and bring smiles to millions of children across the world. So, you know, I'm not saying it's more important than what you guys do. It's some, you know, you do some stuff, too. Thank you, Santa. Well, we put together that. Now that's what I call Christmas album. That's true. That's true. And George Michael was very, very grateful. He made my naughty list for 12 years running. Yes. Extra naughty. Yes, it was. It was. It was a bad time. We didn't know how things were going to go. So this next special family has a very heartwarming story. Terrence's father suffered a heart attack, a stroke, and the medicine that was needed for him is expensive. And so dad moved into town so that Terrence could help out. Bills have been adding up. The heat went out. But Terence wrote to us. Your show keeps me sane on tough morning commutes. And I absolutely love the recent Change my mind. Campus episodes. I think he's got the wrong show, but, you know, it's an affiliate. Whether anything comes of this or not, please know your work means the world to us. You make the daily grind bearable and often give me a much needed laugh or dose of hope on the way to work. And that's really. That's really what all of this is about. Hope can come in the form of a toy. It can come in the form of something that people watch where you maybe spend time regularly with friends at your third place. Or sometimes it can just be an encouraging, a kind word. You can find hope sometimes in the most unlikely places. For example, one time I met a lady, she was named Hope, and I had no idea. Fantastic. It was not the first place I would look. So here is the family to introduce themselves and tell you more about their story.
- [37:11]
C
What's up, Lauder? With Crowder Fam. My name is Terrence. I'm out here working at my day job, changing out windshields out here in.
- [37:18]
B
The North Texas area.
- [37:20]
C
Yeah, this is what I do. So my name is Terrence.
- [37:22]
B
And I'm Terrence. My father, Terrence.
- [37:24]
C
We just wanted to show our gratitude and say how thankful we are for being considered for the Santa Crowder special. It is an amazing opportunity. I just want to say thank you.
- [37:35]
B
I've been a big fan of Steven.
- [37:36]
C
Crowder for a long time. I used to be a big YouTube watcher. I finally made the switch over to Rumble. And this year, 2025 has been. Let's just say our spirits are high. But there has been a lot of trials and tribulations.
- [37:50]
B
My wife passed away August 9, 2023. Had a heart attack. December 19, 2023, TIA stroke, April 3, 2024.
- [38:01]
C
We've had multiple emergency room trips this year.
- [38:05]
B
Just because I can't afford the script.
- [38:06]
C
Because my dad cannot afford the medicine, and I'm here. We are relying on my one income as a family. We're super happy that our new baby is here. It's the best part of the year for us. But we're all in jackets and sweaters because our heat just got turned off. Our washing machine broke right before he was born.
- [38:24]
A
We've been having to be selective with what we're going to prioritize our single income to. And so I have been maintaining my job at our Sunday school nursery. So every Sunday, we go up to our local church and I run the little nursery there. This is baby's first Christmas, and so we would like to be able to get him A cute little crib. Right now we're working with the little bassinets. So a crib would be the nice next step for him to have what grade you're in. I really like animating, drawing and stuff like that. Writing and editing videos is also something I like to do.
- [39:07]
B
He's a pretty good editor.
- [39:08]
C
He's a pretty good editor.
- [39:09]
A
He's actually self taught. He's self taught on YouTube and teach himself the program. And what I want for Christmas is a brand new Wacom tablet to draw and animate for digital art. And I would also really like a new and stronger PC.
- [39:27]
C
What would help the most my family this Christmas season would be basically getting enough money to help get the prescriptions for my father. He deserves a healthy life. Even if nothing comes of this. I'm grateful for the opportunity. Thank you so much.
- [39:43]
B
Much.
- [39:44]
C
L. Crobber Team Merry Christmas to you.
- [39:52]
B
Please welcome Terence Senior, Terence Junior, Raquel, Nicola and little Joaquin. Oh, there they all are. There's a. I can see the whole family. Hi there. Hi there. I can see Terrence Senior in the back. I can see Terrence Jr, Raquel, little Nicola and then. Can you, can you hold up? She's. Oh, no, he sort of. Yeah, Raquel is sort of your little one's blending in with you. There you go, little Joaquin. Look at that. Oh, that's sort of a Christmas themed Lion King holding it up. Thank you so much. That's right. By the way, a lot of people don't know what they're saying in that song, But Santa speaks 84 language. And what they're actually saying is, I need the steroid cream. So sometimes it's not as romantic when you actually do the translation, you know, but it sounds good. So. I love all of you. You look so festive. I'm so glad to see you. Merry Christmas, everybody.
- [41:02]
C
Merry Christmas to you, Santa.
- [41:03]
B
We love Christmas.
- [41:05]
A
Yes, we love Christmas. We dressed up to see you.
- [41:07]
B
I can't pretend. Sweater. Yeah, he got a little too fat. Well, I tell you what, you're a brother from another mother because Terence Senior, I. I don't know if you know, Santa's been known to have a weight problem himself. Yeah. Eating jewelry, cookies. That's right. But I have the same problem. Yeah, well, well, we, we all do. That's the thing. As we get older, it's important to exercise and get that heart rate up. But I'm so glad you're still here with us because I know you had a. You had a scare and, and the really the wonderful thing is you all coalesced as a family and you're all together this year. Yes.
- [41:45]
C
It's amazing.
- [41:46]
B
Yes. It's our first Christmas in years. I haven't got to spend Christmas with my dad since I was about 6 years old. So this is a very special Christmas right now.
- [41:55]
A
Oh, wow.
- [41:56]
B
We'll see. And, and of course not, not to diminish what you've been through, but that is a blessing, isn't it? It brought you all closer together. It is, yeah. That's one of those things that a lot of people this year, you know, we were just. We work with some charities and one tribe foundation this year, and some people, they, they're missing family members. So it's important to be grateful for what we have and, and having everyone around there, that's. That's the most precious gift of all. Now, now that is definitely true. Absolutely true. 1,000%.
- [42:25]
C
Thank you.
- [42:25]
B
Oh, I'm so, so glad to see it. I'm so glad that you're with us. And then there's little Nick Nicola. There he is. I can see him now. Nick Nicola, do I still remember this correctly, that you're really into editing, drawing things like. And I know you love riding your bike still, right?
- [42:43]
A
Yeah.
- [42:44]
B
And then I remember you're pretty active. I remember that time. I don't remember which year it was, but you went to that outdoors camp and you ran more than two miles. Two and a half, if I'm not mistaken, Right? Yeah. But the most special part. Do you know what Santa remembers about that?
- [43:06]
A
The skit?
- [43:08]
B
No. I remember that. I think you helped others get up during that race after they fell down. You did.
- [43:18]
A
Yeah. He's good help.
- [43:20]
C
He's a good helper.
- [43:21]
B
And Nikola, what made you want to do that A lot. A lot of boys would simply see someone else fall and say, here's my chance. And they'd run, run extra fast.
- [43:34]
A
Because it's nice and I want to be on the nice list and I want.
- [43:41]
B
He's already. He's only 10. He's learned how to game the system. Because flattery works with old Kris Kringle. That's right. I'm not someone who. I'm not someone who you would refer to as a 10. So when someone. Someone speak some kind words when I get bashful. And do you still want a PC for. For more editing jobs to do, do that this year? Is that still on your list?
- [44:04]
A
Yes, absolutely.
- [44:06]
B
Now let me ask you, Nicola, why PC? Why are you not a Mac guy? I have my own reasons.
- [44:14]
A
PC because it's just like, it's stronger for animating and editing videos and, and it's, I just wanted to see more.
- [44:25]
B
He's just a p, he's just a PC guy I like. I, I, I get that. And what do you want to do that you think when you grow up, do something with editing or animating?
- [44:34]
A
Absolutely, yes, I do. What would you like to do just like animating? I would like to work on a show, make cartoons.
- [44:44]
B
Oh, well, there you go. Some, you know, we have some closed circuit cartoons here at the North Pole that maybe when you're old enough, we could get him into the mix. What, what do you think there, Joshua Elf? Well, I'm a PC guy myself, but that's peppermint candy canes. That's true. That is true. And we have to keep him to a, a two candy cane minimum. Sometimes I sneak a little extra. Sorry, I meant maximum. I meant maximum. Don't hold me to it. I meant maximum because he will eat all the candy canes around. That is a, that, that, that is something that. We have cartoons and we have our own language here at the North Pole. Poll with the cartoons, which one's your favorite? And you can, you can pronounce it in Elvish. Well, I think, oh, something fell over there. I think my favorite quote is. That's one of my favorites. That's his tagline. We put that along. But yeah, it does the trick. I have that on the back of my, my sleigh bumper sticker. Yes. But it's, it doesn't fit very well. Requires a second sleigh. I ride them like skis. So, mom, mom and Dad, I know you talked about what you were going through this year. Did you, have you been coming out of it? I know it's been a bit of a struggle.
- [45:57]
C
This year has been a struggle. But at the end of the day, there's been a lot of blessings this year, even though we've had some struggles of. Our new baby was born. And that was the biggest blessing ever.
- [46:06]
B
And the craziest thing is I was.
- [46:08]
C
Working so much at the time. I actually got, the day he was born, I got pneumonia and I got sick.
- [46:13]
B
I, I, I was hospitalized. I came out of the hospital before.
- [46:17]
C
Mom, after mom did. Whoa.
- [46:19]
B
I had to take him in. I got checked to the hospital the same day he was born. I just got overworked. I just got overworked. I never get sick.
- [46:28]
C
And I got sick.
- [46:28]
A
But we had to, we were FaceTiming each other from different hospital rooms post delivery.
- [46:35]
B
Oh, boy. But We're.
- [46:39]
C
We're so thankful because everything worked out and our baby was born healthy. And we have a new family member here to celebrate. Break.
- [46:44]
B
His first Christmas.
- [46:45]
A
This is.
- [46:45]
B
I don't know if you can see his shirt, but it says his first visit from Santa. There you go. Look at that. And he's got that Enrique Iglesias beanie going on right there. That's right. You know, a little known fact in the industry. He paints it on, but we won't talk about that. And I have that same sweater. That's right, you do. You wear it every year. I say, what are you doing, Joshua? It's a little trick. You see me every day in the office around the cocoa cooler. I like to reminisce. I know you do. Plus, he has a very short memory span. That's what happens. Elves. Yes. No more than. It's 12 minutes. Candy canes. That's why. That's right, the candy canes. And Terrence Senior, how have you been doing and has it been a lift to your spirits to have family around during this tough time? It's really weird. I never in my life have thought I'd be in Texas, but here I am celebrating it with my family and Terrence Junior, my son. We had. We hadn't spent Christmas together in years. In years. And this is a really great celebration to be together. Well, yeah. And there you have three generations. And I can see. Terence Junior, I can see where your enthusiasm comes from. He was talking about pneumonia like it was like a celebration. He was laughing. I got pneumonia.
- [48:05]
C
I always have a. I. I always.
- [48:07]
B
Have a positive attitude. That's just kind of the way I am. Like my. My dad always says we're a half glass full type of family. Yes. That's a great way to look at it, you know, because there's always someone who has. It's not to diminish what you're going through, but everyone can. There's an old tale where, you know, people used to. It's sort of a. A fable, I guess, maybe an allegory. But people put all of their problems. They wrote them down on a ticket and they put them into a hat and they shook it up. And after that, everyone could pull out any problem that was put in the hat, and everyone took back their problem because they learned how to deal with it. And they sort of realized that everyone sometimes could, depending on your perspective, have it worse in different ways. And, boy, is it great to have a family around. We can't get pneumonia at the North Pole. We're we're immune because, I mean, we always live in the cold. It just. It never happens ever since the vaccinations. That's true. Yes, that's right.
- [49:06]
C
Must be nice.
- [49:07]
B
Yeah. Well, we have all kinds of other communicable diseases. When the moose come in, you know, during rutting season, they bring lime with them, and it's been a real problem. But the reindeer keep them at bay. And we do want to help you guys out this year. We very much appreciated your letter here to Santa, and we know that you're. You've gone through a tough time, and more importantly, we're inspirational in coming together, and we want to help with that momentum. So we have a couple of things for you, Nicola. I think that we actually have someone there who's going to bring you a present. Do we have our elf there right now, today?
- [49:44]
C
Yes, you do.
- [49:45]
B
There we do. Oh, there he is. I couldn't see him, you know, because elves have camouflage, so sometimes he could be in the room and I wouldn't know. That's true. You'd say. I just thought you were part of the wallpaper. That's for you, Nick. I would like you to open that one first, because the little ones go first. That's the Christmas rule.
- [50:01]
A
Okay.
- [50:02]
B
That's a good rule.
- [50:03]
A
I do want to say, though, it has my name on it, so it's my gift.
- [50:09]
B
Sounds like there's a backstory here, but no tricks. Now that is yours. And it's. It's actually a rule. When you FaceTime Santa, you get one present early. So this is for you. Go to town, Nicola. Rip it. Rip it Good. Grip it and rip it.
- [50:34]
A
Hey, not get back up.
- [50:37]
B
Oh, he's getting territorial. It's a new PC. Well, do I hold it up? I'm sure you can guess. Nicola, you're. There you go. Oh, thank you, Santa.
- [50:55]
A
Thank you, Santa.
- [50:56]
B
Absolutely. Who could have seen that coming? I tell you, you're a boy who knows what he wants. Because I asked for a list and they just said, PC. I said, well, sure, sometimes. No, there's inventory issues. They're PC, they said. I said, all right, if he's been good. Absolutely. And there's a giant speaker.
- [51:20]
A
Yeah, it looks like a speaker.
- [51:21]
B
Is it. Is it this PC strong enough for your. Your car, to your applications?
- [51:26]
A
It's more. It's strong enough for that. And one.
- [51:29]
B
Strong enough for that and more. Oh, yes. Well, I'm glad to hear it from him, but you know what? I know we don't. We don't. Cheapskate. It when we're doing. I understand if having a bad PC is worse than having no PC at all. Yeah, I used to. Yeah. One time Joshua Elf tried to creme candy canes in it. Yeah, it's a. It's not. It's not the CD ram I thought it was. No, it's not. You can't burn candy canes. There's no mixtape. And we do have one more thing I want. Well, a couple more things, but one to present you with because I know that you had a problem with. With the heat and I know that the medical bills get to be quite expensive. And so we wanted to help you out with that. We want to bring in the elf here and Billy. Yes. Come on in. We actually have a check for you. I know you can't see it, but for your whole family, this will be given to you for $7,500 to help with the electric bills and what's going on with the family there. I don't know if you can see it.
- [52:35]
A
Thank you, Santa. Thank you, Santa.
- [52:38]
B
Absolutely. Thank you so much, Santa. Now that's more symbolic, right? We are so grateful.
- [52:44]
C
Thank you so much, Santa.
- [52:48]
B
Oh, thank. Well, thank you for your Christmas cheer. You know, it's contagious and I know it doesn't solve everything, but we hope that it goes a long way. And we do have one more small gift for you, Mr. Jesse Elf. Maybe you could have them open it. Yeah, it's very small. It's nothing to get particularly excited about.
- [53:09]
C
No, come on, don't.
- [53:10]
B
Sweet. Well, there's a. There's a second and third act here.
- [53:18]
A
It's a white box.
- [53:20]
B
It's a white box. That's all I ever wanted when I was little was a white box. It's not a PC, is it? It's. No, that probably in the future they'll get that small. Now. What?
- [53:40]
C
Because.
- [53:42]
B
What'S in there? That's right. I think there's hands. Oh, there you go. And what is it that. What does Raquel have in her hands?
- [54:03]
A
The baby and some dryer sheets.
- [54:05]
B
Dryer sheets. That's not actually. I think that might be a mix up. So maybe actually, Jesse the elf, can you help this family? And actually, I think the real present is outside. And I'm sorry, that was a mix up with the dryer sheets. If you could go outside for a minute. There you go. Help Terrence Senior. He's. Look at that. The whole. Now don't dox them. No, no, I. I promise you it's. There you go. There's so many people.
- [54:51]
C
Thank you. Yay.
- [54:52]
A
Oh, my goodness. This is Santa Claus. Thank you.
- [54:58]
B
Absolutely. Now, you know Santa could shrink. That are legendary.
- [55:04]
C
You guys are Santa. You're killing it this year.
- [55:08]
B
Well, thank you very much. We don't use that verb, but yes, we're. We're celebrating it this year.
- [55:15]
A
Thank you. We're so thrilled.
- [55:17]
C
Thank you.
- [55:17]
A
Thank you.
- [55:17]
B
Thank you so much, Santa Claus. Well, absolutely. And. And I assure you that's a good crib. That's. That's sturdy. That's made of strong elven wood. It's not one of those made in the Pan Pacific. Yes, it's real elven wood. So look, I know when you go outside sometimes we. We can't see you as. As much, but we do have to go help some other families as well here today. An organization. And we hope that this helps you guys out and helps you make it into the next year. Because I tell you what, I think you. You all are going to be doing more than all right so long as you. You keep appreciating each other. Merry Christmas to you too. Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas. We love you as well. Have a great merry Christmas. Thank you so much. Terrence Senior, Terrence Junior. Raquel, Nicola and baby Joaquin. You'll maybe remember this, but you'll have a video to commemorate. Thank you, everyone. Merry Christmas. The worst Christmas gift I've ever received. I can't even say socks, to be honest. I don't know that there ever was a really bad gift. I. I don't know if I've ever received a terrible Christmas gift. Certainly not something that I ever remember receiving that was bad. I do remember that I've given a terrible gift. That would be. I guess when my mother had. My little sister. Can't stand her. What is the worst Christmas gift you've ever received? And then I thought about it. They were all really great. Now it's just me, my wife. I gave her a metal detector. She hasn't touched it been a year. I know it's not the most romantic thing. We live in Savannah, Georgia. We're sitting on a gold mine of civil war treasures. Anyways, she gave me a.
- [57:20]
C
What is the worst gift that you've ever received?
- [57:24]
B
The complete works of Shakespeare. Did somebody actually give that to you? Yes. When I was about 12 or 13 years old, a fan gave me a hand. It's like a hand press. Espresso machine.
- [57:36]
C
What it is you. And you can use it in your car?
- [57:37]
B
Yeah, it's supposed to be.
- [57:39]
C
And I tried to use it and.
- [57:41]
B
What you do is you like pressurize it. Yeah, I have to like pump it or something.
- [57:44]
C
Yeah. Oh yeah, yeah.
- [57:45]
B
It's like. Yeah, it's a huge thing you have.
- [57:47]
C
To do with it. Yeah. And obviously it's gets boiling hot.
- [57:50]
B
Right.
- [57:50]
C
I did it and it exploded everywhere in my car and I was scalded with pressurized hot coffee.
- [57:58]
B
Yeah.
- [57:58]
C
So no, no harm, no files for the guy to get his ripped off.
- [58:02]
B
Wow. Oh. Oh. So you know, every year we like to, obviously we highlight, we work with some different organizations because we can't do it all at the North Pole. That's a common misconception. A lot of people help us out. It's sort of a licensing agreement, you know. But every year Santa also likes to highlight a very special child who's making a very special impact, impact on their community. Could be a boy, could be a girl. And this year it's actually a very special girl who's made a very big difference. And it's just a lesson to all of you that any one of you can choose to make a difference at any one time. So I would like for you to meet a little 11 year old named Leah.
- [58:44]
A
3, 2, 1 point. I'm Heather, this is Leah and this is Logan. They had a little bit of a video go viral recently. Two siblings were jumping on a trampoline when the younger brother started choking. As soon as his older sister realizes this, she starts performing abdominal thrusts. So we would like jumping on a tampoline with candy in my mouth and I fell back. I didn't like do anything. I got up, then it started getting really sour and I fell back and I started choking and she saved me.
- [59:23]
B
In a moment where panic could prevail, 10 year old Leah kept calm with her 7 year old little brother Logan in distress and took immediate life saving action.
- [59:31]
A
Are you okay? Much as it hurts my heart to watch. Gosh, I'm just so proud of her. I'm proud of both of them. For learning a lesson about candy on the trampoline. Right hand. I don't know how to say it any other way. I'm just, I'm so proud of my kid. I'm more proud of her ability to stay calm. And we have a fighter, not, not, not a fighter in the fight or flight method. She's always been an exceptional kid. She even got a award. Yes. Our local police department where I used to work, Chief Jones gave her a plaque, a life saving award, which was so cool. And now she's got this little reminder for the rest of her Life. That she's unbelievably capable. And I kind of think it's really cool. You kind of think it's really cool. My only message to. To any other moms or dads or anyone responsible for a child out there is not to underestimate them because of their age.
- [60:37]
B
Well, isn't that just wonderful? Did you. Did you see that, too? That was all on camera. I can't believe it. Right there. She saved. She could have saved that little boy's life. Probably did. Probably. And that's incredible. It is. It's really. That's one thing, too. It's not all just about presents and toys. Sometimes the most. The most valuable gift you can give is life. That's. That would be up. It's a common expression. Yeah. I wish she had been it. I wish she'd been at the North Pole, at the. The Great Candy cane choking in 1989. Oh, I remember that one. Oh, we learned our lesson hard. You know, Santa was there, and I at that point, and this is a good lesson to you. You can all actually go reach out to your local fire department and they can actually certify you in cpr. And helping with the Heimlich, it's a good thing to do. You can do it with the whole family. This was before that, and I actually helped, I believe. It was little. It was weebly. Weebly. And I was smacking him to try, and he was so small, my hand almost went through Weebly, but it didn't. So that's. No, it didn't. He was fine, but he was definitely in shock. Definitely had a mark on his back. Well, you know, elves are resilient. They get over that. After a few weeks, he started talking again. So please welcome. Please welcome the entire family. Mom, dad, Joseph, Heather, Leah. The entire family. Heroes. All right. Oh, we have the entire family right here. Hello. Merry Christmas. Okay, now, don't tell me, let me guess. That's. Well, that's dad. That's. That's Joseph. Do you. Do you prefer Joe or Joseph? Joe. Joe. Oh, I could have guessed. You know, it was a trick question. I wanted to make sure you're paying attention. And then we have. Oh, we have Mama there. We have Heather. I see. And then we have. Right there. Oh, that's Leah. Hi, Leah. How are you?
- [62:31]
A
I'm good.
- [62:32]
B
And then. Oh, there's. Okay, there's a picture. Santa. That's right. That's right. Oh, there's Logan. I'm sorry. Logan, can you see me?
- [62:40]
A
It is very small.
- [62:41]
B
Oh, okay. There we go, so Logan and Reagan right there. Okay. She's sitting right there. Okay. So, Logan, I'm sorry about that. How. How frightened were you when this happened?
- [62:52]
A
I was like, oh, my God.
- [62:59]
B
And were you happy that big sister was there to help you out?
- [63:03]
A
Yes.
- [63:04]
B
Now let me ask you this. Were you scared when she first started whacking you? Did you think. What are you doing? Hey, I'm choking here. That's right. We were talking. We had a great choking incident. What year was that elf, Joshua? That was in 1989. We were all jumping on the trampoline. Big trampoline.
- [63:21]
C
Trampoline.
- [63:22]
B
Big trampoline. Not a good combination with popcorn shrimp.
- [63:25]
C
No. No.
- [63:27]
B
And there was an elf that was choking. It was little Weebly. And I was whacking him, and he was so small, it felt like bird bones that I said, I better. I better slow down. It's a scary thing. We're glad you're still here with us. So. So there's. Okay. We have Reagan and we have Logan. Will, let me ask you, Reagan, let's. Let's go in order here. Do you still. You still really like doing crafts and making things with your. With your hands?
- [63:54]
A
Yes.
- [63:55]
B
Have you. Now, have you. I'm trying to remember. You've always liked doing that, right? But you've gotten a lot better. You've been doing it more.
- [64:02]
A
Yeah.
- [64:03]
B
Yes. Do I remember correctly? Did you actually help make some. Buy handsome presents for some staff that are at school?
- [64:12]
A
The Castellas.
- [64:13]
B
You did. Boy. What made you think of that? That's very thoughtful because I see them.
- [64:19]
A
Working hard every day, and I. They deserve a Christmas gift.
- [64:23]
B
Oh. Oh, you hear that? It's wonderful. That right there is a. That's a guaranteed nice list. That's so sweet. I don't need to hear anymore. You know, that's very sweet, but as elves, the craft mace. She's kind of nosing in on our territory. That's true. Gives. Here is the elves. I guess it's okay. We'll allow it. I could use a day off, to be honest. That's okay. Reagan's only nine. It's not one of those H1D situations. You still have job security. It's a competitive job market. That's right. That's right. Well, that's. I don't know how. Mom and dad must have done a great job because you're all so thoughtful. You making presents for people at school and your big sister, you know, predicting people choking and. And then Logan is. Just. Seems sweet as can be, too. That's That's a. That's a great job, mom and dad. You should pat yourselves on the back.
- [65:08]
A
We got very lucky.
- [65:09]
C
Yes, we did.
- [65:10]
B
Oh, come on. Don't be modest now. I think there's quite a bit of nurture, not just nature. They're all sitting there at attention. I'm willing to bet that there's quite a bit of discipline in this house as well.
- [65:22]
A
I would go this far. I would say the Marine Horror shaped them a little bit with their dad.
- [65:27]
B
Well, that's okay. You need to have. You need to have the stick and the carrot. That's what I tell the reindeer. That's true. Comets usually Carrot Blitz and. Oh, he's a stick reindeer. He. He does. He was difficult to get to behave. Now, let me ask you, Reagan, are you still. Are you still hoping for Christmas one of those virtual reality headsets? Is that what I heard?
- [65:50]
A
Yeah.
- [65:50]
B
And what would you like to be doing with that?
- [65:54]
A
Because Logan, he's got one last Christmas, and I've wanted one because up. I've. I've tried playing on his, and I thought it was really fun, so I want one for myself because we always fight over who carried.
- [66:11]
B
Now, Logan, she says, do you share with your sister, since you're the only one who has one right now?
- [66:18]
A
Sometimes.
- [66:19]
B
Sometimes. Well, I'm glad it wasn't Reagan on the trampoline. Let's try and pump those numbers up, buddy, to stay on that nice list. Let's make sure we. We share. But that's true. That's a very. That's a very popular item this year. And. And, And, And Logan, you. You really still like playing video games, right? Yeah. What's your favorite game?
- [66:45]
A
Like this game on wheel. It's called Animal Company.
- [66:49]
B
Animal Company. What do you do in that game? Do you. Do you just. Do you raise animals, or do you.
- [66:54]
A
No, it's like a game where you, like, fight animals with, like, a ton of animals. Oh, my.
- [67:01]
B
Well, that doesn't sound like it'll be endorsed by PETA anytime soon. But that's okay. I understand it. I understand those games can be. If it's all imaginary, as long as you treat. You treat animals well in real life, right? It's just pretend. Remember we had that with little. With little Daryl the elf. He watched Professor. We took him to one professional wrestling event, and he thought he was the heartbreak kid. He was giving all the other elves sweet chin music. We said, stop. He's wearing leotards, too. That's not approved. Wardrobe for the elves, not approved. And it's also not good in the cold. So let. Let me ask you something. So Logan, I hear that you've been very good in class and you did something for your class that involves an elf to have that. Right? Right. Tell. Tell every. What is it that you did?
- [67:51]
A
So like we have this elf in the.
- [67:53]
C
The morning.
- [67:54]
A
We have to find it. And like, like in the morning, like after special we get to. My teacher gets to pick a student to hold it. Cuz if only if they be good. And I. I have to hold it for the rest of the day.
- [68:11]
B
Really? Oh, wow. Sat on the desk. It's a big person to be sitting on a desk. Well, that's the one thing. See, Gerald the elf is bigger than most elves. A lot of people don't know that he's. For an elf. He's gigantic. At 5:2, we usually have a cutoff at a little bit shorter. Around, you know, four and a half is about it. We actually, you know, Danny DeVito tried out too tall. He was too tall, but Gerald was grandfathered in. So that's very. That's very kind. So it seems like you're quite a helper. Quite a helper to Logan and I. I know you already have a virtual reality headset, so is it. Is it still a drone that's there that you're. That's on your list. A drone. And what. What do you want to do with that?
- [68:53]
A
Fly around.
- [68:55]
B
Well, that explains it. Sometimes Santa asks silly questions. I don't know how it goes with FAA regulations with drones right now. I know. But as long as you don't fly too high, I think you'll be. I think you'll be okay. And can you do me a favor, Logan? Can you. So that everyone can see, can you give your big sister who saved your life, give her a big thank you and a big hug because that's a sister who loves you very, very much.
- [69:20]
A
It very much is.
- [69:22]
B
You can all get it. On it. Get it. Get in. Big family hug action. That's what Santa loves to see. Oh, there you go. Now imagine seeing this from drone footage. Look at that. And you know. And we haven't forgotten about. I know you're older and often Christmas is a time for little ones, but I also understand that you studied very, very hard for one of your important science tests and you got in the high 90s. That's what I've remembered. Was it 96?
- [69:48]
A
Yeah. Whoa.
- [69:50]
B
I didn't know scores could go that high. She'll be employing us all taller than I am. 96. And mom and dad, were you very proud of her for doing that? That takes a lot of hard work. Work.
- [70:00]
A
We were so proud of her. She. She sometimes is a little hard on herself, and she. She gets stressed out, and we just know that she can do it, and she came home very excited about that. 96. That's. That's crazy.
- [70:14]
B
That's very. Well, you know, often very high performers sometimes can. Can be very hard on themselves. Sometimes children need a little bit of the gas, and sometimes they need a little bit of. Of the breaks, like, hey, it's okay, and take. Take a little bit of time for yourself. But that is impressive. And, And. And do you know what you want to do? Do you want to go into the sciences, Leah, when you get. When you get older, maybe?
- [70:36]
A
I like. I enjoy learning about, like, a lot of science stuff.
- [70:40]
B
Okay. Do you have a favorite one? Is it, like, physical sciences or. Or could it be biology or. Or elven? Science is a big one. It's really more magic, but that's.
- [70:52]
C
I don't know.
- [70:52]
A
I like a lot of.
- [70:55]
B
Well, the good news is the world is your oyster. If you. If you keep that up, the choice is yours, and you don't have to decide and grow up too fast. You're still. You're still 11. You've got plenty of time. And I. I know that you've had your mind on a blue iPad that you. You want this year, and that'll help you quite a bit in your sciences, I would imagine.
- [71:13]
A
Oh, yeah, that's. That would be great.
- [71:15]
B
Yes. Well, that's the thing, too. These iPads, you know, we. We have to make the. Them here. And frankly, with the upgrades, I can't tell the difference anymore. There used to be big leaps. Now it's like, oh, there's no bevel. Wow.
- [71:30]
A
Wow.
- [71:30]
B
And Tim Cook gets all the credit. We have to build them. Yeah, he farms it out to us to source. Well, Logan and Reagan, since I have you here, do you have any questions that you'd like to ask Santa while I'm here? Nothing. No, he's got all the answers. He's got a second lease on life, and he has no more questions.
- [71:58]
A
Maybe how he eats all those cookies in one night. That's a lot of cookies. Yeah. How do you eat that much cookies?
- [72:04]
B
Well, here's the thing, you know, that's kind of a mis. I. I do eat a lot now. It's that Norwegian blood, you know? But what I actually do. Santa does intermittent fasting. Now, keep in mind, not every child in the world celebrates Christmas. You know that. So not everyone celebrates Christmas. Then there are different time zones, and then there are a lot of places, different countries that don't leave out cookies. For example, in Ghana, they leave out wilted spinach. Wow. Yes. And so that helps where Santa usually gets sick and makes more room for cookies. But I fast for about 96 days, and then I can eat as much as I want. So, yeah, I don't eat at all until Christmas Eve. Wow. Yes. And then I sleep through New Year's. Well earned. That's right. But it's a very common question. You know, often you'd think they'd ask about how do you get to every house? But they'll go, hey, how do you eat all those cookies? Because, you know, little children, your eyes are bigger than your stomach. Sometimes Santa lets us help. That's true. That's true. Some of the cookies do go to the elves, too. You know, I have a whole entourage. That's so. That's something a lot of people don't take into consideration. I remember back in 2018 when you made me eat all those sausages in Germany. That's true. Yes, that's right. I had acid reflux for a year. Yes, that's right. They left out. I don't know why sausages were so popular that year. Reagan, do you have any questions that you would like to ask old Kris Gringle?
- [73:40]
A
What's your favorite reindeer? What reindeer helps me most?
- [73:43]
B
What? Rain? Well, that's a very good question. So here's the thing. Since they might see this, I have to say all of them. But I. Here's. Here's a little secret, Reagan. I do this, okay? And. And it's. It's. It's not. It's not misleading. It just makes them feel. I tell each reindeer when I'm with them by themselves, you know, they'll eat an oat bag or a salt lick. I say, hey, psst, Blitzen, you're my favorite. Then I go over to the next reindeer stall. I say, hey, Comet, you're my favorite. But the truth is, they're all my favorite. They're such good reindeer. And if you're lucky enough to meet them, they're actually. They're gentle as a lamb with children, but they're actually fierce protectors of Santa's sleigh, too. Exactly what you want. So I love all of them. But, you know, I. I go back a long way with. With Blitzen. He's probably the one who's been with me the longest. So, you know, I remember when I brought him home, and he was just. He was just this size, and he was flying all around the living room. He broke the chandelier, so there are some special memories with Blitzen Heat. He cost me a fortune in renovations, but I wouldn't have it any other way. And, mom and dad, what a great job you've done. Do you have anything that you'd like to say about your family, specifically this year?
- [75:06]
A
We're just super thankful. We realize every day that we really got blessed with great kids, and we're proud of them. We're proud of them every day. But just looking back at a year is. Is crazy to see their growth. And, you know, we're just very proud of them.
- [75:24]
B
I see Dad's a man of few words. That I am. Well, you know what they say. A man a few words is wisest. Or he's a mute. We did have a mute elf one time at the North Pole, remember? Yes, yes. It was very hard to get work, boy. We made a mistake. We put him on watch on the great ice wall. He couldn't sound the alarm. Then we had him texting the xylophones. That's right. That was a disaster. We had him playing the xylophone, saying, hey, the snowstorm is coming. Bong, bong, bong, bong. And it wasn't a great alarm. Well, I'm so glad to get to meet you. I've been following you, and I know how you helped your brother, Logan. We're so glad that you're here with us still, and I hope you appreciate it and treat mom and dad very good. And you're good to them. So, you know when Santa makes a special phone call or FaceTime, we actually have a tradition where you're allowed to get one surprise gift before Christmas. Did you know that?
- [76:29]
A
No.
- [76:30]
B
Well, we actually have someone there to assist with this. And it's time to bring out for the family, bring out the presents for the children who've behaved so well this year. Let's. Let's get that going. I think you have them right there. Oh, there we go.
- [76:46]
A
Right here.
- [76:47]
B
Oh, that's. That one was wrapped by Johnny Boy Elf. I can tell. It's perfect. Corners. This is my favorite part. It is. We get to see the smile on their faces. And then I see two packages there. I believe one's behind there. Yeah. Oh, I couldn't see. They were. They were sending Santa the return feed. Tool Man. I thought, oh, no, Santa, I haven't made a mistake missing a present since 1649. I had to make a second trip. I made sure because every good boy and girl deserves a present to open out Christmas. All right, well, children.
- [77:27]
C
Children.
- [77:28]
B
Reagan, Leah, and Logan, open them up. Let's see the smiles on your faces.
- [77:35]
A
Oh, my goodness.
- [77:40]
B
Oh, my God.
- [77:41]
A
Thank you so much.
- [77:44]
B
Absolutely.
- [77:46]
A
Thank you.
- [77:47]
B
Absolutely. I'm so happy to see you. Like it. That should. There you go. I can see Tool man. Take me off this so I can see Logan. He's. There you go. You got a white box, Logan. I was. I was going to say it's not a white box. That's a drone. Absolutely. And you know what? Also say. Say thank you to. To mom and dad, because they specifically reached out to Santa and let me know about how good you've been and said they wanted to help do something extra special. Special. So since I. Since I can't be there, I want to see all of you give mom and Dad a hug. Get in there.
- [78:32]
A
I can't reach out.
- [78:33]
B
Come here. Look at that. It's like Stretch Armstrong reaching out to. That was a popular toy in the 80s. Well, thank you all so much for everything you've done for each other. And please have fun with those. But don't forget that family is the most important thing. And I think you probably appreciate it more than most because you almost lost little Logan there. It can happen in a second, and so it's important to appreciate every moment you have. Okay?
- [79:00]
A
Absolutely.
- [79:02]
B
All right, well, thank you. Thank you, Mom, Dad, Leah, Reagan, and Logan. Santa has to go. I have to go help some other children. But I'm so happy to have met you and. And still be good up until Christmas. Be listening to your mom and dad. Okay? You promise?
- [79:16]
A
Yes.
- [79:18]
B
All right. Absolutely. Mom and dad, you may need to go get some batteries. Merry Christmas, everybody. Merry Christmas, All men and women created by Go. You know the. You know the thing? I really don't know what he said at the end of that sentence. I don't think he knows what he said either. Last Christmas, Biden was there but he.
- [79:54]
C
Might as well been an empty chair.
- [79:59]
B
This year the tables are turned you.
- [80:03]
C
Managed to gun your lesson unless you.
- [80:08]
B
Push the panic you push your truth lecture the country like a scolding you but vote is up through the holes you read hate the tantrums, the lies and the stories you made you screamed hate at every objection but folks woke.
- [80:30]
C
Up to the the misdirection now your.
- [80:35]
B
Blue wave is just a puddle while we walk in with the victory shuffle. Last Christmas you shouted unfair slammed your keyboards melted down on air this time we're drawing the line the country said nope and and the future is mine you preached equity text us to death kill small towns with a bureaucrat's breath but this year we're cutting the chains jobs in the streets and gas in the veins you chasing villains in every mirror do mistake post getting sadder, clearer the people chose grit instead of fear Our nation of fear, division and of darkness. Last Christmas you shouted unfair. What a stupid song. The message was strong. I agree.
- [81:49]
C
Because they made their choice.
- [81:53]
B
LGBTQ flags will now be flown on American embassies throughout the world during Pride month. These are the hostages approximately 1500 for a partner so part the food is the we don't care this year it's perfectly clear you obliterate is ending right here. Bye bye. It's my tremendous honor to finally wish America and the world a very merry Christmas.
- [82:43]
A

This next organization that we want to highlight is called Heavenly Hooves and it's an organization that provides according to them, they provide programs for children and adults who suffer from a variety of physical, emotional, psychological issues with focus on providing quality programs for troubled or at risk youth. And some of the programs are what some people may view as unconventional and do a lot of good. My Elves were lucky enough to pay a visit to Heavenly Hooves and spend time with their founder, Lynn Turner. Let's go see what they've been up to.
- [84:22]
A
Thank you, Santa Crowder, for the invitation to Heavenly Hooves therapeutic and recreational Riding Center. We provide equine assisted therapeutic riding services for special needs and at risk youth, free of charge. We are in great need, honestly. You can see the conditions, the mud. A lot of times we have to cancel and consistency is very important. We're in the process of getting a barn for our horses. We have seven full size horses now. We have eight minutes horses. We have three pasture horses and then we have two mini cows. So that's, that's kind of our farm.
- [85:00]
B
Oh, we have.
- [85:01]
A
Sorry. We have the three donkeys. I neglected to introduce them. We actually discovered Heavenly Hooves through a mutual friend and she recommended that we get in contact with Lynn when we first. It was when we first kind of found out about Alex's diagnosis. Alex was diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy when he was five. Duchenne is a muscle wasting disease. So basically his body doesn't produce a protein that allows muscles to rebuild. He gets to get up on the horse. There's a little praying session that, you know, we pray over him and, and that ride for the day. It really doesn't matter what the diagnosis is because at the end of the day, what's the goals and joy and happiness should always be at the top of those goals. But we do need desperately two things. We need a covered riding area, at least a 70 by 100 to provide services in when we have inclement weather. And the other thing is we need an equine lift. We have several students who are at the point where they need a lift to safely get on the horse. And without that, they will not be able to provide. We won't be able to provide services for them. Now we're at to the point where we're kind of in a wheelchair. It's a little bit harder to almost impossible to get up on the horse right now because he weighs so much and it's just a little too dangerous. So he comes out and enjoys being around them, gets to pet him. It means a lot, you know, to have him be able to experience something that, you know, average everyday kids can get to experience, but they don't understand, like how lucky they may be to do that. He loves to be here and he's so excited. This morning he told him we were going to go see the horses.
- [86:58]
B
What?
- [86:59]
A
I get to go see the Horses. He was so excited. He's been talking about it all day. These families become our families. We walk through life with them and they do with us. The Lord gave us a call and a mission to provide these services free of charge and to assist however we can. And it's a passion. Organizations like Heavenly Hooves, I mean, are really important to those special needs families. It gives them that connection with, you know, other people that realize what they're going through and gives them that time of just feeling like normal again.
- [87:36]
C
The more you can get them started.
- [87:38]
B
The better off they are.
- [87:39]
A
Our threshold is if we can safely provide services. So if you're 2 or if you're 95, if we can safely provide services, then we absolutely will willing to try.
- [87:56]
B
Well, that's wonderful. You know, sometimes, like I say, people find help in the most unlikely places. And that's why we are so happy to help Heavenly Hooves. And you can go and help them. Go check out heavenly hooves ranch.com. we are proud to announce to help pay for that lift, a $15,000 donation here for Heavenly Hooves. Because you know that Santa has. Oh, there he is. Has a soft spot for Joe Louis. Oh, look at that. Yes. Hey, we can't let you around horses because you're owing three in your battles with horses, big guy. Look at that. Oh. Oh, he wants more treats. Oh, come here, Joe Lewis. We couldn't get the antlers on him. All right, I get it. Go chase some reindeer, big guy. Go chase him. Go. Go, Jason. You like Heavenly Hooves? Yes. Does that feel like a chew toy? Huh?
- [88:47]
C
Huh?
- [88:47]
B
Chew toy. All right. Bye, Joe. Well, dogs don't have much use for money, but thank you, elf Ellie and Heavenly Hooves. We're so glad to present this to you, and we hope that it helps go a long way with that lift. I know that's the hardest part of getting on a horse.
- [89:08]
C
The new year.
- [89:09]
B
What would I see? How I would like to see the Patriots win the Super Bowl.
- [89:14]
C
Also the Red Sox.
- [89:15]
B
That's what I'd like to see happen.
- [89:16]
C
In the new year.
- [89:17]
B
Obviously, I've got a lot of political.
- [89:20]
C
Hopes for this country.
- [89:21]
B
I would like for Republicans to all get on the same page and act like we have a country that's worth saving, because we do. So it'd be good if we could all fight together, you know, because the left is completely out of control. Trump to wake up. He's got some bad people in his admin. Get sure he serious about winning the midterms. Get serious about prosecuting the deep state and continue all the other great things he's doing. And I hope Trump does what he.
- [89:45]
C
Says he was going to do, which.
- [89:47]
B
I think he's doing. A lot of people are getting impatient, and I tell them, shut up.
- [89:50]
C
But truly, the only thing I could ever really ask for is that I continue to have the.
- [89:55]
B
The luck and blessings to my family.
- [89:57]
C
And that they continue to be in good health.
- [89:59]
B
Next year.
- [90:00]
C
I have every.
- [90:01]
B
Everybody chills the F out. That's the only thing I want for Christmas. Peace and stability. I'm looking forward to a much more peaceful 2026. Merry Christmas, guys, and I hope you have a great new year. We appreciate you guys and we'll see.
- [90:13]
C
You in the next year.
- [90:14]
B
Absolutely, guys. Stay awesome. Merry Christmas, guys. Merry Christmas to the whole team. So I want to wish you all Merry Christmas. Happy New Year. Thank you for all the folks there at Louder with Crowder.
- [90:22]
C
Merry Christmas to everybody, and I hope you all have a wonderful year.
- [90:25]
B
Thanks for having me, Crowder, and. And Merry Christmas. Happy New Year.
- [90:28]
A
Merry Christmas. Lots of love to you all.
- [90:30]
B
See ya. Well, we have to get on with the show. You know, I used to. I used to be an impressionist. Really? I didn't know that. That's right. Yes. And see if you can guess who. This is a really big show. It's before your time. Ed Sullivan. Is that elf? Isaac? That was. That was Edward Sullivan. He was very popular. Was he an elf? No, he was not an elf. Do you know this one? Oh, that's Billy. That was Bill Zybub. Yeah. Yes. Back in the day. You know, one of those things. He was a bad elf. He was a fallen elf. But we don't need to talk about him. It's Christmas time. He's at the South Pole now. That's right. Yes. We've had a lot of red and white lining to separate. So our next special guests are Brad and Anya. Brad and Anya are parents of three beautiful children. They have Malachi, Sasha, and Natasha. And just three months ago, Anya was diagnosed with stage three breast cancer. So Brad's letter to Santa let us know that he was a long time mug clubber. And he even admitted that because we can't all be perfect, we'll still help them out. Anyway. He even admitted to liking shows, I guess when. When Gerald elf hosts. Well, lying will put you on the naughty list. That's true. But I don't think he is. I just think it's a matter of poor taste. Okay. And that's not a sin. You know, we won't judge him. We all like different things. That's true. If it was a sin, MC Hammer would never have gotten a gift. So let's take a look at their whole story.
- [92:13]
C
Hello, crowd Rant crew. My name is Brad.
- [92:15]
A
And I'm Anya and we are here to introduce our family. We moved to Texas about three and a half years ago with our then two kids. We have then since been blessed with our third baby. Our kids are now ages 11, 8 and 21 months.
- [92:29]
C
We moved down here in 2022 to Texas for a job that I got at Tesla last year. In April, I was caught in the big lake that everyone heard about. About six months into being laid off and not finding work, it became apparent that I was not going to be able to sustain for much longer. So we made the decision to start a handyman business. New businesses are hard to get off the ground. It's hard to, to find work while doing work. Thankfully, you know, God blessed us with a job offer towards the end of last year, year that I was able to start this January. It was for a significant reduction in pay. It was enough for us to, to kind of scrape by and try and figure out how to get the handyman business off the ground. During that time I ended up having to, to give up on my truck. We couldn't afford my truck. So that's made it even harder to, to kind of sustain the handyman thing. I can, I can't really take equipment anywhere, ladders, whatnot, or take bigger jobs that require me to move big material.
- [93:39]
B
About three months ago, we were hit.
- [93:42]
C
With some pretty tough news.
- [93:44]
A
I was diagnosed with breast cancer, stage three. We initially discovered the lump about a month before my scheduled due date. And the baby being born early and her having the needs that she did, of course pushed any of mine off to the wayside. We just had our second round of chemo out of the 16 scheduled treatments. But we're praying through all of it and I know God has us and I know that I will do whatever it is that I can to make sure that I'm here for my kids and my family.
- [94:23]
C
That's the important part to me is I can do whatever it is to take care of and support her through this process and that our kids will have their mother in the way that she wants to be a mother. You know, Malachi, Sasha, they're really big into art. They love all that kind of stuff. You know, I guess they're both into video games. They like switches. Natasha, the little one, she's, you know, typical baby, she likes babies and, and you know, Bluey. Bluey's big. You know, it's been a huge, huge swallowing of my pride to do things like this, but I got to do everything that I can for my wife or my family. Maybe this will help. I'm incredibly grateful for you guys, for.
- [95:04]
B
Everything that you do.
- [95:05]
C
We appreciate you and Merry Christmas.
- [95:08]
A
Merry Christmas.
- [95:14]
B
Well, let's see if we can make their Christmas a little bit more merry and bright. Please welcome Brad, Anya and their wonderful children. Hello, Brad and Anya. Merry Christmas. And. Hold on, don't tell me. I can tell you. That's Malachi right there, Right? Hi, Malachi. Merry Christmas. And then Sasha right there. Hi, Sasha. Merry Christmas.
- [95:44]
A
Hi, Santa. Merry Christmas.
- [95:46]
B
And is. Is your baby sister Natasha? She taking a nap?
- [95:51]
A
No, she's upstairs. She's, like, cranky right now.
- [95:54]
B
Oh, she's cranky. You know, at a certain age, they're actually exempt from the naughty Nice list because they don't know any better. That's. That's okay. We won't. We won't hold that against her. But. But what a wonderful family. And. And mom and dad. Brad and Anya. How are you doing? I know that we were just discussing how it's. It's been a bit of a. A tough year.
- [96:14]
A
That is correct. We're doing good. Staying it.
- [96:18]
B
Well, that's one thing for sure. I understand that it's. It's as far as you, mom that things haven't spread, so we're. We're still in a state of prayer where it's. It's. It's looking good, but not fully out of the woods yet.
- [96:31]
A
That is correct. But we're fighting every day. We are gathering our strength if it takes it. You know, day by day, step by step. That's what we're doing. But we know God has us and we are always praying, always, you know, trying to stay on the positive side of things. But as far as we know, it's still contained. So we're just.
- [96:53]
B
Well, we're going to make sure to tell everyone at the North Pole and everyone who we can talk to or communicate this to that. Please send prayers to the family. And, you know, part of Christmas vacation is. Is, you know what? You can just take a vacation from your problems. Just.
- [97:06]
A
Yes.
- [97:07]
B
Not think about them for a while. And what a blessing to have three wonderful children. Let me ask you, mom and dad, have they been good this year?
- [97:15]
A
They've been very good this year, yeah.
- [97:17]
B
Yes. Malachi, is that true? Have you been helping mom and dad when they need it?
- [97:23]
C
Yes.
- [97:24]
B
Oh, that wouldn't sound too certain there. Yes.
- [97:28]
A
Yes, he has.
- [97:29]
B
All right, Mon, what does he help you guys with? Does. Does he help around the house? Does he do his chores?
- [97:34]
A
He does do his chores sometimes. Not as quickly as we would like, but he helps any other time that he can possibly be of use. He's always volunteering himself and making sure to watch his sister and, you know, just trying to take any of the additional load around the house when he can.
- [97:52]
B
Absolutely. And, Sasha, have you been good to mom and dad this year, too?
- [97:57]
A
Yes.
- [97:57]
B
Yeah. What. What kind of special things do you do for. For mom and dad to let you let them know that you love them?
- [98:04]
A
Well, usually I help them with my sister because she can get a little.
- [98:14]
B
Does that mean cranky or does that mean nut house?
- [98:19]
A
She can get a little cranky. So I just. I'll like mom. And guess what?
- [98:26]
B
Yes.
- [98:27]
A
She thinks exercises are funny.
- [98:29]
B
She thinks exercises are fun. Well, you know what? Funny. Oh. Oh, funny. Well, you know what, though? That's. They're at that age, we. We. We sort of equate them to. Around the North Pole. We used to have a wolverine problem. I remember. Very similar to toddlers. They just. They don't know any better. They destroy everything they run into. I'm. I'm sorry. There was a little bit of feedback that I missed. Missed it. But. But, Malachi, I'll. I'll start with you since. And by the way, it's okay to take a little longer. You know, you just tell mom and dad I'm taking longer because I want to do it right. You know, if they're not doing it as fast as the chores they ask. That's a. That's a get out of jail free card. Free advice from Old St. Nick. Now, I know you're 11 this year, so you can't legally obviously drive, have a car, but you like exotic cars and playing airsoft still.
- [99:25]
A
Yeah.
- [99:26]
B
Yeah. Where do you play airsoft?
- [99:31]
A
I don't usually do it that frequently. I just do whenever my friends have, like, airsoft birthday parties. There's not really a specific place.
- [99:40]
B
Right. Yeah. Airsoft is different. Back in the day, they used to play paintball with pumpkins and you had to go to a special place, and it was. It was not quite like what you have today. I. Santa's always amazed by the technology as it advances, that they're so fast and they're so light. Now let me ask you. Airsoft, obviously, that's something people go, oh, that's very boyish. That's very aggressive. In a Good way. But you also like doing. Are you still into Jiu Jitsu?
- [100:06]
A
Not as much as I used to, but yeah, I still go occasionally.
- [100:10]
B
You can always pick it back up. It's like riding a bike. It doesn't take that long to get used to it. And we have our own version of Jiu Jitsu at the North Pole. Actually Elf Jitsu. That as it's pronounced in Elvish. That's right, that's right. And actually Elf Joshua was North Pole champion until he was banned. He was disqualified because they don't allow reaping the knee. Well, I was also using performance enhancing drugs. Yes, that's right, the candy canes. Come on. You can do that. That's sugar high. Too much sugar. They say so, but it is very similar. And he was a master of the triangle choke. Have you, have you done that one? Do you know that one? Yeah, yeah. No. What's your favorite to do there? What was your specialty?
- [100:52]
A
Generally like the Kimura.
- [100:54]
B
Oh, that's a great one. You know what's great about the Kimura is if you get good at it, you can do it from any position. You can do it from top, you could do it from bottom. And that's actually Chris. That's actually my favorite. Did you. I was a kumara specialist. Yes. Because I was also a volunteer with a police force. And we have to use that to subdue some elves after too much eggnog. You know, you want something that you can control them without hurting them. And the Kimura is great for that. You don't want to see me after a gallon of nog. No, no, that's why we, we cut him off. It's just too much dairy. Well, we don't have enough previsit in the world. But I understand that you've also had to maybe slow down on some things to help focus on helping mom and the family, right?
- [101:36]
A
Yeah.
- [101:37]
B
Well, I tell you what, that's very sweet of you and I know that you're young, but that means you're growing into a great young man. Because your dad can tell you sometimes part of being a man is putting your wants, your needs aside. Because you have a duty to help those around you who need help. Isn't that right, dad?
- [101:54]
C
Absolutely.
- [101:55]
B
And you know what? For him to do that, that's not normal. That's not standard for an 11 year old boy. That means you must be doing something right, pops. So keep it up.
- [102:03]
C
That's the hope. Thanks, Anna.
- [102:05]
B
Well, don't hope. If you can hope in one hand and then Spit in the other. See which one fills up first, we say at the North Pole. So keep doing what you're doing is what I'm saying. You're doing good. Keep doing that. And do I have this right, Malachi, you still want on your wish list is a. A switch two.
- [102:24]
A
Yes.
- [102:25]
B
Yes. Okay, that's. Now, do you have a favorite game you want to play with that?
- [102:31]
A
Not specifically, no.
- [102:33]
B
Okay, I know now there's such a wide catalog. You know, back when I was early on our first video game system, there was only one game, and that's because it was made of wood. So it was just a little wooden ball that would go back and forth. And once you lost it, you had to get a whole new system. So we didn't have what we have today, but that's a very popular item this year. And then Sasha, there you go. I see you look waiting so patiently. She's so polite. Look at that. I can already tell that she's a good girl. Do you. You still really love singing and art, Sasha?
- [103:05]
A
Yes.
- [103:06]
B
Yes. What's your favorite Christmas song?
- [103:10]
A
Jingle Bells.
- [103:11]
B
Jingle Bells. Well, I don't want to put you on the spot. Can you. Could you sing a little bit for us, do you think?
- [103:18]
A
I'm not really that great right now.
- [103:20]
B
Okay. That's okay. It takes a while to warm up. I get it.
- [103:24]
A
My voice has been tingling because I'm losing my voice kind of.
- [103:28]
B
Okay. That happens to Santa, too, after you can only have so many ho ho ho's before you need a lozenge. So I. I get it. I also know that you actually, if I'm not mistaken, you helped. You helped mom this year with your birthday party and invited only a few special friends so that mom wouldn't have to go through so much work. Do I have that right?
- [103:52]
A
Yes.
- [103:54]
B
Oh, that's. That's very sweet of you because a lot of people don't know. I mean, Santa almost has the ultimate birthday party at Christmas. It's like millions of birthday parties at one night. And I love doing it. I love seeing the smiles on their faces, but it can be exhausting. I'm sure mom really appreciated that. Didn't you, Mom?
- [104:11]
A
Absolutely.
- [104:12]
B
And how were the friends who did show up? Did they. Did they leave your house a disaster? Or did they. Did they treat it pretty well?
- [104:21]
A
The party's tomorrow, so she has.
- [104:22]
C
So she.
- [104:23]
A
She decided to not invite the others that were included on the list. But she said, mom, I understand, and I'm just happy that we can have the party and that you can Be there.
- [104:35]
B
Well, you know what, Sasha?
- [104:36]
C
You will see.
- [104:37]
A
Stay tuned.
- [104:37]
B
That's right. Well, you know what, Sasha, that actually may be better because my. Do you know what my favorite birthday was? It was my hundred and forty seventh and I only had two friends because Santa was a little bit tired. I didn't want a big shindig. And so I just had elf Gerald and elf Josh. We went down to the local eggnogging hole and just reminisced. And it was better than if we had a giant party.
- [105:05]
C
It really was.
- [105:06]
B
But Josh forgot the entire event. Too much eggnogging. That's right. That's right. Be at the eggnog hard that night. Night. And these friends who you do have coming, are they your. Your closest friends, Sasha?
- [105:17]
A
Well, not really. I mean, like, some of them are.
- [105:22]
B
Some of them. Okay, good, good.
- [105:24]
A
Usually not like two of them because they can get a little crazy with my brother around because they are literally boys.
- [105:33]
B
Oh.
- [105:35]
A
He actually invited a couple of kids that are Malachi's age that we also kind of know in the friend circle just to, you know, give her brother some kids that he can play with and so she can play with, you know, the kids that are there for her. But it was incredibly sweet.
- [105:53]
B
Well, that's very thoughtful. And you don't thought about it.
- [105:55]
A
I was like, maybe I should invite Scarlet City, Caleb Jr. And Lizzie.
- [106:01]
B
Well, that sounds like quite the party. And you know, Christmas is a good time for sharing. There's nothing better to share than friends. If you can share friends, you'll never be alone. So that's a great thing to have if you can all play together. And let me ask you this. Do you still want Gabby's dollhouse? Is that still on your list?
- [106:21]
A
Yes, that's still on my list.
- [106:23]
B
Okay. And mom and dad, you believe that they've been good enough this year to get the presents that are on their list, right?
- [106:29]
A
The goodest.
- [106:30]
C
I do believe that, yes.
- [106:31]
B
Okay, well, I tell you what, Sasha and Malachi, you're lucky because if. If mom and dad said no, guess what? I'd hang up the phone call. But that's the. That's the deal, right? It's sort of Halloween is trick or treat. Whereas you put on the costume, you go door to door, you get candy. With Christmas, you're good to mom and dad, you do your chores well, then Santa takes care of you if you're bad. Well, we don't even want to get into that. And. And baby Natasha, I know she's a little bit, as you said, cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs right now, but. But I know that she still loves Bluey and everything to do with that. Right?
- [107:05]
A
Yeah, she still loves Bluey.
- [107:07]
B
Okay, well the reason, like we're so.
- [107:09]
A
Tired of it that we just. That we just have her Bluey stuffies.
- [107:14]
B
Yes. Yeah. Well, I get it. When you're older, it's easy to get tired of it. We actually have a full on ban. It's illegal to run anything Coco Melon at the North Pole. Mm.
- [107:26]
A
Same for us.
- [107:27]
B
Good.
- [107:27]
A
And alcohol's no cocoa good.
- [107:30]
B
That cocoa melon rots the brain. So Bluey is an upgrade. But I know when you're older you want something a little bit more engaging. Well, here's the thing. There's a rule, actually a lot of people don't know this, but if you FaceTime with Santa, if your parents send a very special letter, and if they say that you've been extra good, some very special children get to open one gift right now on the FaceTime before Christmas. It's a little known rule and it's grandfathered in. We used to have to do this on a rotary phone, but now we do FaceTime. So right now I believe we actually have elf Nicholas there who's going to bring out a couple of presents there for Malachi and for Sweet. Well, Natasha's upstairs, but Sasha as well, elf Nicholas. There you go. Bring it out. All right, here. Here we go.
- [108:26]
A
This is crazy.
- [108:27]
B
There you go. And you guys, you're you're welcome. And we also of course have presents for mom and for dad, but go, go nuts. Feel free to open them. Just grip it and rip it.
- [108:43]
C
Oh my goodness.
- [108:45]
A
This is wild. Celebration. Dollhouse celebration.
- [108:55]
B
There you go. That's. That's the most special dollhouse that we make this year. Well, in Malachi.
- [109:05]
A
Oh my God.
- [109:10]
B
Absolutely. You thought it was just a game. That would be. That would be a dirty trick if Santa just sent a game with nothing to play it. Oh, that's something that Krampus does. We don't do that. We get you the whole kit in caboodle and then mom and dad. I don't know if you were able to open yours yet a little. I. I'm looking.
- [109:34]
C
This is the doctor's. I can open it.
- [109:36]
B
Oh, okay. Yes, Yes. I. It's. I. It's difficult to see on the small screen.
- [109:46]
A
Oh, she's gonna love that.
- [109:47]
B
Oh, yes. That's for the little ones. Yes.
- [109:49]
A
All of the button pushing.
- [109:50]
C
Yeah.
- [109:51]
A
Thank you so much, Sandy.
- [109:53]
C
Sir.
- [109:53]
B
Now Brad, you can play with that too, if you'd like, that's right, Brad. You can play with it. Just make sure nobody's watching. Yes. I use. We used to have that with elf Josh and those Pocket Polys when they were popular. I have so many pockets. I know. I said, what's wrong with Maddenex? That's for boys. I had fun. Polly Pocket or nothing for him. I think also there. There was a small one for. For mom and dad. It's. I don't know if. Elf Nicholas. I can't see you, brother. Did you get it to them? There's a gift for a little date night card. There. There's a little date package. So you took. Oh, there you go. Oh, nothing. Nothing like hurrying there. Elf Nicholas. I apologize for him. I like how he slid it to him like the mafia.
- [110:39]
C
He's been great.
- [110:40]
A
I love that. Is this for our day?
- [110:42]
B
Oh, that's. That's for a date night for both of you. Because, hey, you know what? It's very important to keep that fire going to make sure that I know your husband and wife, but stay each other's boyfriend and girlfriend and find someone to watch the kids.
- [110:58]
A
And thank you so much.
- [111:00]
B
Oh, of course. And by the way, Malachi and Malachi and Sasha don't knock on the door when they come home from date night. You need to give mom and dad some alone time every now and then because they grew up together, they love each other very much, and that's what makes it possible for them to love you and raise such wonderful children. We also have something else for you to help, actually. Mom bring this in here to help with the treatment. I know it's been difficult bringing in Elfie. I don't think they can see you. So I'll bring it on camera. We're going to be getting you a check for $5,000 to help with the treatment to make sure that you can get the best available. And I know it doesn't solve everything. Well, save your tears because that's. That's not the end of it. We have one last thing, because I know that sometimes the biggest expense out there can be the toughest one to overcome. So, elf Nicholas the final surprise. Please give Pops there his. His little box. Oh, this is for me? This is for you, Is it? Choco Brad. And actually, I think that elf Nicholas needs to take you outside for a moment. Whole family. Let's go outside, everybody. Car. If you don't go outside now, you won't have a merry Christmas.
- [112:26]
A
Oh, my gosh. You got a car.
- [112:34]
B
Oh, look at that. El Nicholas kind of doing A Dutch angle. Brad, Anya, come on outside. That, oh, my goodness. Is for you. That's a 2025 Ford Maverick Excel to help get you on your way. Absolutely. Dad. Brad. Anya. Oh, look, they're all there. Well, Anya, we really. I'm going to assume those are. Those are happy tears, because those are the ones that we like here at the North Pole. Thank you.
- [113:09]
C
I'm blown away.
- [113:12]
B
And. Hey, Malachi and Sasha, can you do me a favor? Give mom and Dad a big hug. I want to see a big family hug right now. Now. Because I tell you what, that's what's most important. You've all got each other. And make sure that mom knows the love she has around Christmas. And no matter what comes your way, you'll all be able to. To bear through it.
- [113:34]
C
From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
- [113:36]
B
Well, no, thank you very much. And. And thank you for sending your letter and. And being an inspiration to everyone out there. Because I tell you what, I know that that's one of the hardest fights there is. And Anya, you seem to be handling it with unbelievable bravery. And you have a wonderful crew there to face the fires with you. We have to go help some other people as well and spread it around, but we love you all very much. We very much appreciate it, and we hope you all have a Merry Christmas.
- [114:06]
C
Thank you. Merry Christmas.
- [114:07]
B
Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas. Be good. Sasha. Malachi. And. And we'll see the little baby when she gets out of her cuckoo phase. Merry Christmas. Say hi.

- [114:53]
B
Here, look.
- [114:55]
A

- [115:16]
C
Wow. This is incredible. Yeah.
- [115:23]
B
This is crazy.

- [115:34]
B
At school? I guess. I guess. Yeah, I guess. We're taking this to school today.
- [115:39]
C
Sweet.
- [115:40]
A
Y. Thank you so much. This is.
- [115:42]
B
I don't even know. I don't know what to do.
- [115:43]
A
Yeah.
- [115:44]
C
Seriously.
- [115:45]
A
Thank you.
- [115:46]
C
This is the craziest thing ever.
- [115:48]
B
I'm.
- [115:49]
C
I'm, like, completely overwhelmed.
- [115:51]
B
I don't ever. I'm.
- [115:52]
C
I've never speechless you.
- [115:55]
B
I. I don't know what to do.
- [115:58]
C
You got a good poker face. You guys knew this was coming. Wow.
- [116:04]
A
Love you.
- [116:05]
B
Wow. Bye. And Santa just wants to issue a very Special thanks by, by the way to Glen Polk Auto Group. You could go to gpoke.com for helping us out and helping provide that automobile their extra hands. Santa's helpers there at Glen Polk Auto Group, hopefully that, that maverick really helps get him moving wherever it is he wants to go. So thank you so much, Glen Polk Auto Group. We appreciate the help. We'll take all we can get every year that we do this. Well, I'd say that's another, that's another great year. It always feels good to, to give back. You know, in the, in the world today with all kinds of drama going on in social media and factions, it's nice to just be able to, to give back. And it's a tradition. I, I would say it's one of my favorite traditions here that we've been doing for years now. Absolutely. It's something that we very much appreciate in every dime that you contribute with your membership. Rumble Premium, which used to be Mug Club, helps us make this happen where we try and be a little bit different from the rest of the online world and, and bring a smile instead of a tear. So we wish you and everyone in your family a merry Christmas wherever you are. And I'll tell you that, you know, you may have some difficulties, but that's part of the beauty of Christmas is overcoming it with the people you love most. Because you know who else has some difficulties every now and then is even old Saint Nick had a little bit of a run in. It's true. Santa had with the local human resources department. Yeah. Which we didn't used to have. That was a development really. I guess I'd say 90s 80s. I blame Gloria Allred. That's a fair point. Or is it Steinem? They sort of blend together. That's what happens in your old age. But I'm still pretty sharp for 942 too. So. Merry Christmas everyone. Have a wonderful 2026. We'll see you then. And I think we'll actually see a little bit of that running with hr. But Santa can melt hearts no matter who you are because kindness goes a long way from us to you. Merry Christmas everybody. Merry Christmas.
