  • A man, a myth and a natural talk show host

    Whether you agree with his opinions or not, Tom has a natural ability to relate to comedy, music, art, famous people, cultural events or good food. He’s seen a lot of the world and has the bruises and grace of experience to back it up. He once had a talk show in Holland, wrestled polar bears naked and flew the space shuttle. Take it from me, a pimply boar’s hiccup, Toms a great story teller and a Refreshing guy to listen to.

Q: What do you think about all this notoriety? Does it make you feel uncomfortable that you're kind of worshiped the world over?
