While he loves all of his nutcrackers, he did reveal which one he holds especially close to his heart.

“Which nutcracker is my favorite nutcracker? That is hard to say because I’ve got the Scottish nutcrackers, I’ve got the classic nutcrackers. I have a little bit of everything, I’ve got some that are even blinged out.”

Holding up a miniature one, he adds, “I’ll show you what has always been my favorite. This is Gord, my Canadian nutcracker, and he’s pretty awesome. It’s not the size that matters, it’s the spirit.”
