Is 2020 Billy Bush worth two in the past?
The TV personality, 48, is a changed man these days, or at least that’s what he told Dennis Quaid on the actor’s podcast called “The Dennissance.”
“I’m a much nicer person,” Bush said. “I’m much more curious about other people’s experiences.”
Bush said the 2016 release of an “Access Hollywood” tape from 2005 featuring himself and Donald Trump is what changed him.

In the now-famous behind-the-scenes tape, Trump talks about groping women and says he likes to “grab them by the p—-” while Bush laughs along.
“It’s such an ugly moment,” Bush said on the podcast. “Of course you want to delete it, but you can’t. Then it’s out there for the world to consume, and your children most importantly.”
Bush, who worked at the “Today” show when the tape was released, was fired almost immediately after and only returned to TV in September 2019 on “Extra.”
