Steuart from The Apprentice...

Thanksgiving night, Donald Trump fired Steuart from The Apprentice.

"We had no choice" wasn't uttered. In fact, there really wasn't a reason given. He just suddenly turned to Steuart and said "you're fired".

Does Steuart even know the reason he was fired? I talked to him earlier - hear his answer to that along with his thoughts on Clint after that last boardroom, who he thinks should win the game, who's firing he was surprised by, the Anand cheating scandal, and a few more details on the Clint / Mahsa incident that was brought up in the boardroom a few weeks back.

Here's the full 8-1/2 minute interview (thanks to some radio magic, portions aired tonight on Star 102.5).

Tonight we'll find out who the final two will be. I'll be completely shocked if it's not Clint and Brandy.

So I guess I'll be rooting for Brandy. But that might not be a good sign for Brandy, as every person I've wanted to win keeps getting fired (Steuart being the latest).

The only good thing about my favorites getting fired is then I get the chance to talk with them on-air. That's usually not the case with the winners - they don't get as much media attention because the show's season has ended and there's nothing left to promote.

But speaking of my favorites, Mahsa returns to The Apprentice tonight! I just hope the heavy snow doesn't knock out the power here before then.

The Apprentice season finale is coming up next Thursday (December 9th) and it won't be a live finale. Find out more about this in Tyana's RealiTyana Talk podcast #8. She reveals the strange details on the way they had to do the final episode.
