Take Santa Claus. Then ditch the red suit and the flying reindeer, and you’ve got a guy who’s all about giving. On this last episode of my third season, I tell the story of the time my dad tried out the role and got more than he bargained for!

This story originally aired many years ago on NPR’s Day to Day. Thanks to my editor Russell Lewis.

As I mention at the beginning of the episode, I’m trying out a new app called Wisdom, and I invite you to join me next Wednesday, December 29th at 9pm ET / 6pm Pacific as I chat with listeners about whatever questions they might have about any of my past episodes, how I make this podcast, travel, or whatever else you want to talk about. If you have an iPhone (it’s unfortunately not available on Androids yet), open your web browser and go to https://joinwisdom.audio/scottgurian to install the app follow me so you can be notified when I go live. Hope to see you there!
