I'm Hosting as Fast as I Can!

ebook
In this memoir, the charming TV host shares funny yet poignant stories from his life and career, plus his secrets to staying calm on & off camera.
Tom Bergeron, Emmy Award–winning former host of Dancing with the Stars and America's Funniest Home Videos, has always been ambitious, driven, and charming. However, as a young man, he had an enemy that posed a serious threat to what otherwise would have been guaranteed success—a bad temper. His family and friends didn't keep their concerns to themselves, but Tom's petulance remained a problem until his first date with a woman who threatened to end their relationship when, in a fit of anger, he put a dent in his car door. "If you want us to go any further, you'd better do something about that," Lois said, unabashed and unafraid. Tom, embarrassed, then and there committed himself to controlling that temper. (That woman later became his wife, by the way.)
This humorous memoir will be filled with anecdotes of how Tom, who never breaks character, stutters or so much as breaks a sweat (even when an Osmond faints at his feet on live TV), uses meditation and other regimented, relaxation techniques to stay focused, energetic, and happy on and off the camera.
Praise for I'm Hosting as Fast as I Can!
"The charm and wit that have made Tom Bergeron one of television's most popular hosts is reflected beautifully in I'm Hosting as Fast as I Can! Readers will love Tom's book." —Bob Barker
"You are a good man, Charlie Brown! Also an honest man, an entertaining man, a life-instructing man, and one hell of an autobiographer. Congratulations, Tom!" —Carl Reiner
