Santa Speaks
Every year we publish Santa's Annual Interview with the media. Santa talks about people who oppose him, why he
won't get a new suit, the proper way to send letters to Santa, how he has managed to stay with Mrs. Claus for all
these years and the top speed he's ever acheived on the sleigh. Santa is also a wry observer of popular culture
and isn't shy when it comes to opinions about Christmas, the blatant overuse of his likeness and the excesses
of the season. Kids love him -- and adults are surprised that Santa is such a candid character about Christmas
in today's world.
 
Santa Speaks 2009Santa talks at length about Mrs. Claus, his ongoing woes as a Chicago Cubs fan and the speed of his new sleigh which he says went so fast in test runs this summer that it set his beard on fire. Santa also speaks about the good in the world and how great Christmas can be in tough times.
Santa Speaks 2008This year Santa addresses the state of the world, the elections, the importance of talking with parents and his concerns with the Chicago Cubs -- again. Oh -- and Santa tells a joke this year, too.
Santa Speaks 2007Just as he does every year, Santa has been interviewed in advance of Christmas. And just as he has done in the past, Santa has met with an aspiring journalist, this year being 17-year-old Jeremy Hart of Fontana, California. Jeremy did something no other journalist with an exclusive interview has ever done -- he opened up the questions to the world. For more than a month the public was invited to submit their questions for Santa to Jeremy. The result is this candid conversation where we learn more about the modern Santa Claus than ever before.
Santa Speaks 2006What's on Santa's iPod? How does Santa get down all those chimneys? Just what can Santa do about the Cubs? Santa gets interviewed by a kid this year and in this candid conversation he shares new information that we've never had before. From just who his helpers are to playing with Barbies, Santa is as frank and interesting as he ever has been.
Santa Speaks 2005Santa meets with an aggressive anti-Christmas journalist and gets threatened with being charged with a crime. This candid discussion revolves around the thought that the word "Christmas" is offensive to some and why the natural disasters of 2005 have been a good lesson to the world about the Spirit of Christmas.
Santa Speaks 2004Santa addresses the difference between himself and the legendary St. Nicholas, he talks about his real name and why he is just one small element of a fantasic season of hope.

Santa also reveals what he does the other 364 days of the year and the fact that we world is filled with millions of elves helping people everyday.

Santa Speaks 2002Letter writers on are Santa's mind this year. He talks about how to write to Santa and what he does with all the Crayola drawings he receives. He also mourns the Cubs, deals with the Anti-Santa Society, and why putting up the tree is the best part of Christmas for him.
