Matthew McInnis tells the heartwarming tale of Larry Stewart, whose journey into becoming Kansas City's Secret Santa stemmed from his own struggles. Fired and broke, a gesture at a diner in 1979 sparked Stewart's vow to help others. His philanthropy grew alongside his fortunes, leading to a legacy of anonymous gift-giving totaling $1.3 million. Even after revealing himself due to illness, Stewart's mission of kindness lived on, inspiring others to embrace charity. The episode closes with a call to action: engage in small acts of kindness to foster an 'Empire of Kindness'.
