Whoopi Goldberg spreads her political perspective on The View, but she also regularly spreads holiday cheer — in secret — at the post office.

The EGOT-winning actress revealed on the talk show’s companion podcast Behind the Table that she secretly responds to kids’ written letters to Santa Claus each Christmas season.

The 70-year-old confirmed the gesture on Thursday’s installment, which was recorded after The View broadcast her special birthday episode that highlighted a roster of charities of Goldberg’s choice.

“I just feel like everybody needs a little help, and if you can help somebody… it’s why I try to do Santa at the post office. I try to get letters and we try to answer kids’ letters to Santa,” Goldberg said when Teta inquired about the importance of using the episode to give back to the community.

Teta told the View moderator, “I don’t think people know you do that,” but that “it’s a great thing” anyway.

“It’s a thing we can do, and it doesn’t cost a lot,” Goldberg continued. “Because you want to give people the ability to do something that brings up how they see themselves.”

Among charities Goldberg highlighted in her birthday episode were the Heifer Project International aimed at ending world hunger; God’s Love We Deliver, a group focused on ending hunger for those impacted by HIV/AIDS; One Simple Wish, which helps foster children; and multiple food banks across the country.

On the podcast, Goldberg also announced that she has political ambitions to hold a key government position in the future.

“I know this is the craziest thing ever, and it will never happen while [The View] is going on, but I still want to represent our country in another country. I’ve always wanted to me an ambassador,” Goldberg told Teta when he asked what she’d still like to accomplish in life.

She added, “I think there are terrific things about this country. I know we’re not perfect, and there’s a lot of stuff we’ve got to fix. It’s what I’ve always said: There are great things about us and terrible things about us. We fix what we can, and sometimes we fix it really well, and sometimes we don’t fix it well enough.”
