Santa doesn’t work in the toy shop – he works in the Nussbaum shop. But, only in the off-season.
Like little kids on Christmas morning, we couldn’t wait to sit down and have a jolly conversation with Nussbaum Santa Claus, Gene Reiland, who moonlights as a technician in the shop.
Share a laugh with us as Santa relives his most outlandish and memorable moments throughout the years. And, share heartfelt moments of children’s innocence and sincerity that will warm you this Christmas season.
Santa leaves a send-off message to the kids at the end of the episode – don’t forget to share it with your children (and children at heart).
