About this listen

The writings of Isaac Asimov do not always display his quirky sense of humor. This story, however, which first appeared in a 1942 edition of Startling Stories, certainly does.

The tale takes place on one of Jupiter's moons, Ganymede, where a home sick Olaf Johnson shares the legend of Santa Claus with the "Ossies" (local inhabitants) who are employed by the same company he works for. The Ossies' embrace the story whole-heartedly and declare a shut-down in production unless "Sante" pays them a visit. Will Olaf be able to re-create this Earth legend in outer space? Will Olaf keep his job after Commander Pelham (his boss) learns what he has done? Listen and find out!

Good seasonal story.

Very good and very humorous sci-fi story. Never knew Asimov could be be so funny.
