Chris Evans + J.K. Simmons tell KIDS the wonder of Christmas | Recess Therapy

What do you think about Santa? He's real and I have a friend and she says that he's just a rumor and the parents eat all the cookies. Just a rumor? Carrots! Crazy talk. How's it going folks? For today's very special episode of Recess Therapy we are here with Chris Evans, JK Simmons and we are celebrating all things Christmas and holiday in anticipation of their new movie Red One. Don't miss it. It's a fun one. Right here, right now. What do you want for Christmas? I have to say I just want a Fitbit. That's all I want for Christmas. A Fitbit? Fitbit! Well what's this watch you got? You're afraid you're not getting enough cardio? Yeah. Alright, what's the number one toy you want for Christmas? A puppy. That's alright. So a puppy. Alright, puppy, Fitbit. So, have you talked to your mom about, I mean, is that a possibility do you think? Yeah. Yeah? Do you guys have any pets? No. None. Except my brother. He's like a little dog. Nice. Also, the last thing I want for Christmas is to be 89. What? Okay, one more time. You want to be 89? Yeah. You want to skip the whole... You want to wake up on Christmas Day and be an 89-year-old man? Yeah. It's that you get to have a job. But you get... Actually, a lot of people... And you don't have to get yelled at at school. And you don't have to do math and you know everything and you don't have to go through school again, so... If you're on the nice list, I'm just saying, you probably wouldn't get yelled at at school. I've never been to the Narlies, and I'm glad because I don't want coal for Christmas. Yeah, you don't want coal for Christmas. How does it work in the North Pole? How do the presents get made? Talk me through that. They get made in the factories, or Santa just buys them from Target. Right. That's smart. You know, cut out the middleman. Are the holidays about presents or spending time with family? Spending time with family. Because you can do things together and discover things together. But the presents are nice too, right? Yeah. Not the whole part. Absolutely. If you could meet Santa Solana, what would you say? Can I have all the toys in the world? So it's a little about the presents. So what's the number one thing you want for Christmas this year? Is having friends and family. That's really? More than a toy? More than a present? You just want friends and family around? Good answer. Well, I know all of these answers because I watched some of his Christmas Carol. There it is. Oh my God. You studied. This, this, this touches my heart. The Muppets Christmas Carol has everything you need to know. Well anyways, so, I guess he's going to be playing Christmas and you're going to be playing the bad guy. Yeah. How did you guess that? Because I don't even have a beard right now. And you know what? He didn't say, like, the good guy. Like, I could easily have been the hero. Nope. Not this time, pal. Malachi, have you already written letters to Santa? How would he even fit down my chimney? Because I don't even, because my building does not even have a chimney. Oh, really? It's hard in New York. Yeah. So, I guess he must have to take him the elevator. I have two elevators. Probably. He probably knows the super. Well, you know everything when you watch the Christmas Carol, the Muppets Christmas Carol. So go see Red One and the Muppets Christmas Carol. And if you have time. He's in the Muppets Christmas Carol. Yeah. Because it's everything you need to know. Are you from New York? Are you from the city? Yeah. I'm from the city. My mother, although she's from Canada. Hey, listen. I love Canada. Where in Canada? Um, I think Deep Cove. I've been to Montreal. Oh, you're not telling me that you've never been to Deep Cove. I've never been to Deep Cove. You believe this guy's never been to Deep Cove? Never? What's, like, your favorite restaurant there? Uh, in Canada? In Deep Cove. Yeah. In Deep, I mean. They got a chili. If you've been, you know all of them. You know? TGA Fridays. Probably. It's really, it hits different there. My favorite place is South Sushi's. And that was literally the first one. South Sushi? Wait, did you say sushi? Yeah. You like sushi? It's my favorite food. It's your favorite food? I didn't eat sushi until I was 22. And it took me a while to even find my footing. And that's it. It's New York kids, isn't it? My favorite is salmon avocado, so that's what I had to get. You a sushi guy? Not at all. No? Why not? Because fish should be cooked. I'm sorry. I put it out there. I just said it. Wow. Listen. That's a hot take. Some grizzly bears right next to me. They may have discovered fire a long time ago. Have you been on the nice list or on the naughty list? I've been on the nice list every Christmas. Are you sure? Prove it. Every Christmas? Yeah. Your mom would agree? Nice list or naughty list? Solana? Oh! Or in between? In between. You gotta earn your way onto that nice list. Do you wanna do act out? Kind of, should we pretend that JK is Santa Claus? Yeah. What would you like for Christmas this year? What can I have the elves make for you? Am I on the nice or the naughty list? Well, wait. Should you tell us? Who are you in this situation? The facilitator. He's the moderator. I'm helping bring the worlds of the North Pole to us mortal humans. The elves would be better. Yeah, you're right. You know what? You're an elf. We get Evans out. You're right. That's true. We get a good elf in here. Co-opting. I gotta stay in my lane. You two have any final questions before he goes? No. Roman, listen. I want you to get that puppy mom, but if you don't, just wait. It'll happen. It'll happen sooner or later. Once you're 89. I want to have it now. I want a puppy to be, like, literally fall in love with a tree. Like a puppy tree. Just catch it. An airdrop with, like, a parachute? Yeah. You know, one of the things that Christmas can teach us all is the concept of delayed gratification, which is a lot of big words, which just means sometimes you have to really wait and wait and wait for the thing you want the most, and then when you get it, it's even better. Yeah. I don't want it. I'm not getting that. If he doesn't want it, I don't want it. I don't blame you.
