Episode 93. The Singing Santa Has Been Performing for 37 Years
Welcome to Episode 93 of the Adventures with Grammy Podcast. Today's guest, Tom Long, began performing as the Singing Santa in 1985 when he was 21 years old. He knew that first Christmas he had chosen the right avocation when a curly headed lad with big brown eyes said he wanted to hear Santa say, "Ho. Ho. Ho."
Throughout the years the Magic of Christmas and watching parents light up when their children sit in Santa's lap have fueled Tom's passion for performing as The Singing Santa. An invitation to work with Marie Osmond and an appearance on America's Got Talent added a bit of spice to his role. When he retires from his day job as the general manager of the largest restaurant chain in Virginia, Tom intends to up his Singing Santa productions and hopes to perform with The Rockettes and during the Macy's Parade.
Tom says his career as The Singing Santa would not be possible without the support of his wife. Even his three children help out making the Christmas season truly a family affair for the Long household.
I began our interview by asking Tom to talk about his children and how he incorporates them into his performances.

Episode 91. Mrs. Claus Shares a Christmas Story
Mrs. Claus has a busy schedule, but she stopped by the Adventures with Grammy Podcast to let you know she is ready to bake cookies with your grandchildren, tuck them in with bedtime stories, and gather around the family room to tell stories and sing songs.
We know Mrs. Claus as Debra Weller, our guest on Episode 54, who talked with us about the art of storytelling. Today she will help us count down the days to Christmas ... less than 90 days away ... and share with us a special story.
Before we hear the story, Debra will give us insight into her professional credentials and continuing education, including a recent conference she attended.
Please visit the show notes to contact Debra and arrange visits with Mrs. Claus or to learn more about storytelling.
