Manage episode 456040060 series 3561191
As we get closer to Christmas, POD Strangely Warmed slides into the holiday spirit with special guests Santa George Campbell and Dustin Kaps. George tells the story of his unexpected encounter at Costco, leading to his becoming a professional Santa Claus. He shares with us the joys and challenges of embodying Santa, from managing numerous gigs to giving proper attention to people of differing abilities. We also discuss the deeper connection of being a Santa while being a lifelong Methodist and George’s involvement with various Santa organizations and charities, including the Lone Star Santas and the International Brotherhood of Real Bearded Santas. George's creative side also shines through his book 'Around the World with Santa,' which educates children on the different names of Santa globally while raising funds for food-insecure kids.
