Just saw this quote in an old interview I did from 2006. Note the Trump reference- it’s hard to remember when Trump was “just” a reality-TV host. And before that, a well-known rich guy.
(I’ll post the article below if you find it interesting)
This part was referring to an internet-based “cat reality show” I had hosted around that time-
Int: Was there a particular pun on the show you enjoyed most?
Tom “My weekly catchphrase "You are Meowta here!" Not that it's not a stupid thing to have to say every episode, but I always wanted my own TV catchphrase, like Fonzy or Freddie Prince. Or Trump.”
What a trio huh? Fonzy (Aaaaaayyyy!) Freddie Prinze (Looking Good!) and Trump, (You’re Fired)
Here’s the rest of this (remember, it’s from 17 years ago!)

After I finished talking I continued filming as I enjoyed the Westchester County sunset with Martha. If you like, you can enjoy it along with me.
Nice job on "The Big Weekend Show" on Sunday
BUT...
you should have plugged your book "Mean Dads for a Better America" in the final Fathers' Day segment.....
