How does Don Lemon introduce today's Hot Topics and set the tone?

Don Lemon 0:07
Ah, hello. Good morning, everybody. Lemon. Well, it's Hot Topics with Don Lemon. I know it says a Don Lemon show, but I don't really see these as a Don Lemon show. This is just like, this is kind of like morning coffee talk, okay? I'm in the wrong thing. Hi, everybody. How are you? I'm in the wrong thing as it relates to trying to speak with you. I got a new cell phone, and for some reason, I cannot get onto my own YouTube page. to comment with you guys. So I may have to comment from my old one, which was Don Lemon's CNN. Maybe it worked out. Let's see if it worked out. No, I didn't. I'm trying to add an account. But anyway, so if you see that one that says Don Lemon CNN, that's my old one, and I say good morning.
Don Lemon 1:03
So I'll figure it out. Hi, guys. Sorry. So I got a new – I got the fancy new phone. Can I tell you about it? Remember I told you I went to the Apple thing the other day and Tim Cook? So Tim – some of us left with a little gift. And mine was this brand new phone. But I can't get onto my YouTube. So I get into my notes, though, which I will need for this show. So thank you so much for joining us today. Where do you want to talk? Where do you want to start? Where would you like to start? Where would you like to start today? Do we start with the black Nazi in North Carolina? Do we talk about, do you guys know who Chapel Roan is? Do you guys know who Chapel Roan is? Let me know. And then there's this Ohio Senate, Republican Senate candidate who I have to, which makes a point about something that I said that I actually got in trouble for.
Don Lemon 1:55
The point that I was trying to make, he's making it, okay? So we have Chapel Roan. We also have Cheryl Hines, who is married to, oh, Ashanti. Thank you. I'm right with you. Whitley, right? And Whitley is one of them. uh... so first morning live from california go you're up early so good morning everybody come on come on in here everybody get in here so again this is uh... like our coffee talk show this is our hot topic segment where i you know i can channel uh... you know either bill maher or ladies on the view or wendy i'd like to tell yeah not about with me and uh... we got a a lot of things a lot of things to talk about okay so uh... Let's start with yesterday. Let's start with yesterday. Because if you did not see, Live at Five was lit yesterday.
Don Lemon 2:48
I mean, if you didn't see it, you really missed out. You really missed out if you didn't see it. By the way, I didn't have no powder, nothing today. This is all me. I forgot it at home. If you did not see Live at Five yesterday, it was lit yesterday. Whitley Yates, who I saw on MSNBC with my good friend Jonathan Capehart. And she made some points about, you know, should celebrities, should the vice president be leaning into celebrity? And someone like Oprah, and she's like, Oprah's a billionaire and she's not relatable. And I was like, wait, hold on, wait a minute. Isn't Donald Trump like a self-professed, self-proclaimed billionaire? He's the actual candidate. Oprah's just sitting there interviewing someone.
Don Lemon 3:40
And by the way, which I think is a huge get for the vice president, because the town hall, all town halls basically are like talk shows. Who is the biggest talk show host in the world ever? I would say it's Oprah. You know, some people might say Ellen. I don't know. Do you think Ellen and Oprah equal? No, I don't think so. I think Oprah is like the biggest talk show host, most famous talk show host in the world, correct? So I had an issue. It was not an issue. I just wondered, like, the Harris campaign, when we were at the convention, they were leaning into sort of everyday Americans, working class Americans, diversity, patriotism, and really leaning into celebrities, letting the celebrities sort of at the convention introduce the important issue.
Don Lemon 4:33
So Oprah by a mile, says Thomas Aglione. Ellen lost it, says illustrious meme. OK. Not equal at all, says Ntibi. So weigh in on these comments. Whitley was a mess, a hot mess. Let me tell you, I don't like to disparage people. I actually enjoyed the conversation with Whitney.
