Al Madrigal: My 12-Year-Old Son Is Too Old To Believe In Santa | CONAN on TBS

[@Evija3000]

I remember how I discovered it. I was going to the toilet in the middle of the night and walked on my mom wrapping the presents in the kitchen. The fact that she looked like an awoken troll and thew me out the room didn't help with reducing my rising suspicion.

[@kinger4027]

you know there's that one kid watching this with his family on television whos like MOM DAD WHY DID YOU LIE TO ME

[@danielgordon4180]

Fun fact, Saint Nicholas was a catholic saint and bishop of Myra. Tragically he was nothing like the Americanized portrayal of him. He was a huge advocate of giving wealth to the poor and he even helped the disabled (one of his three miracles involving giving three disabled little girls some joy in their lives).

[@juicemaybe4655]

+Debonair Damsel "...nothing like the Americanized portrayal of him." "...huge advocate of giving..." "...one of his three miracles involving giving..." -_-

[@DJB1017]

+Debonair Damsel The character of Santa (red suit, fat guy with a long white beard) is probably based on The Norse god Odin, but his personality and his name I think are a nod to Saint Nicholas.

[@Nukity]

Wait, there's no santa?! MY DUCKING PARENTS LIED ALL THESE YEARS! WHERE DID ALL THE PRESENTS COME FROM!? I AM SO CONFUSED!

[@Nukity]

***** AUTOCORRECT! DUCK!

[@Nukity]

***** Lol, I will.

+Hech i got good news for you, you can't disprove santa so he exist in some dimension hahaha

god is the adult version of santa.

[@lackadaisicalllama]

This guy is hilarious!

[@silentone503]

That's the same reason my grandfather came to the US too!

[@QM571]

I knew there was no santa since I was bloody 7.

[@joebobjenkins7837]

Why did you tell my daughter Santa was locked in a Turkish prison? The same reason you told her he rides a sleigh and brings presents. I guess we both just like lying to little children.

[@gymnopedie4445]

I figured it out at 7. I would never even tell my children about Santa in the first place, but if I did you can be damn sure I'd let them know the truth by 8.

[@bertgoedeme1737]

In Europe, we know about the easter bunny. But the eggs are dropped by the Bells of Rome I guess :-)

[@bigwilly8199]

His son is 18 years old now his son is a legal adult

[@quinnjordan6699]

My whole class told me Santa wasn't real at 12

[@knaziringram4589]

No santa, no easter bunny, no problem Chi Chis Negra!

[@jessepinkmansimp6090]

i personally think 12 is the perfect age to break the news lol

[@amylee8969]

I found out when I was in 5th grade, so 10 and 11 is a good time too. By that age, the fantasy imagination phase kind of wears off so telling them the truth won't hurt them that much.

[@FluffyBuzzard2TheMax]

I remember when I found out Santa, god, and the Easter bunny weren't real

[@sharpestintheclan3195]

In this moment, I am euphoric

[@Snakeye808]

+Bahama Lynn Sawdin It's peculiar that people easily accept that Santa, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy aren't real, yet some people never accept that god isn't real despite there being the exact same amount of evidence for the existence of those other mythologies.

Hey Al! is that house worth 700k yet?

[@christianwheatcraft6518]

if your kid is 12 and doesn't know the truth about Santa something is very wrong with your kid or your family.

[@donguello2281]

My great grandfather murdered someone too. But who wouldn't to defend themselves

[@illwasteyourtime]

lmfao, believing in santa at 12 years old. I was drinking beer and smoking weed by 12, this is why there are so many 25 year old man-boys out there today.

[@amylee8969]

Yeah 12 is a little too old to believe in Santa. But then again......plenty of teens and adults who are detached from reality and believe in unrealistic things. Remember when you were 14, and believed you were going to marry your hot crush from school? Plenty of adults believe that their bad toxic habits are ok and get really angry and defensive in a childish way whenever someone calls them out on it.

[@stenvallkrista]

i never believed in santa :D. nobody told me there wasn't santa but i guess i was too smart ;). same with god XD. don't hate me

[@HooverBeast]

+Krista Stenvall tbh, people just like living in delusional bubbles

[@Unicorn-min]

What's up with all the lies people tell to their kids about Santa, tooth fairy and easter bunny? What is the purpose of this? Isn't it cruel when they found out that their parents have been lying to them all these years?? Isn't it actually better for the parents to tell them the presents are from them so the kids love, respect and appreciate them more than some fictive character?? What's the history behind these characters and do kids still believe in them this century?

[@Jeff-ob3rk]

It's incentive to make their kids behave. If they do, they will be rewarded with presents. Just be happy you didn't grow up believing in Krampus.

[@jazzy4830]

what kinda kid still believes in santa at 12 i mean really i figured it out in primary

[@SirRichieSan]

He's like a brown Baruchel

[@IButanium]

I never really felt santa was real after I hit 8 or 9 dont remember I stopped believing in santa but what I do remember is me faking the santa thing just so I could get an extra present, which In my mind it was 1 extra big present but in hindsight i probably would of got the same thing either way, as a kid I was just milking the power of santa just because I was a greedy fuck haha

[@Googlize1]

He reminds me of Mark Ruffalo

[@Melindas.Stitchy.Corner]

I never believed in santa.

[@ReadandWite]

Wow , a normal "conversation" on a YT video from an American "talk" show without asinine sketches about comic book characters or juvenile games at some sad convention where so called adults "whoop and holler" because somebody mentioned a piece of dialogue from a film or magazine. Things are looking up. Lets hope this is a future trend but I am not going to hold my breath.

[@ILuvSmexyShowgirls]

+ReadandWite Some of us here on KZbin happen to LIKE those "comic book characters", "juvenile games", "films" and "magazines" thank you very much.

[@ReadandWite]

Debonair Damsel Yes.....so I understand....but it's also nice to listen to fully adjusted human beings conversing about the more normal and mundane aspects of life in a slightly cynical way without being confronted with "special powers" or "fantasised weapon systems" or short attention span pranks that involve either trick photography or injuring members of the public unnecessarily all in the pursuit of views and peer approval clicks accompanied by stereotypical comments of "awesome", "way to go dude" , "lmao" or even "those who dislike this must be retarded".

[@ghanembelgacem8700]

+Raymond C He's right though. Two minutes of Bill Burr's politically incorrect, brilliant comedy is better than 50 hours of 99,99% of Conan's guests....No scratch that, better than 50 hours of 100% of Conan's guests.

+HufftyPuffty Al Madrigal is Funny - No need to compare the two
