If you're watching us on Substack, we appreciate you here on Substack. We're going to put the show live on Substack for a bit, but then you're going to have to go over to Substack. Or if you folks are on Substack, you're going to have to come over to YouTube sometimes to watch us.

What is Don Lemon announcing and why is he broadcasting from an awards event?

Don Lemon 1:49
And then you folks on YouTube, we also have content that we air on Substack. We do lives on Substack. I did one today. And I wrote something today on Substack. Pull that up for later if you don't mind, Andy. Or if you can get it now. I don't know if you can get the Substack up. And so I wrote something about our 750,000 subscribers. That's where we are. And we are celebrating our success. I think you should celebrate every single moment, every single success that you have. Don't you think? Do you guys disagree with me? Because you, you never know what I've gone through this past year or year and a half with family members with in the last couple of years, family members with what happened at CNN, all kinds of things.
Don Lemon 2:33
You would think that some people would think that I would not be standing. And so I'm sitting right now, but I'm also still standing. So it is, I am so extremely grateful to all of you for helping us to build this community. And again, For tonight, let me tell you what the award that we're getting, just so you know how fancy we are. And I'm kidding a little bit, but actually not. Because we're getting an award that really means a lot. We are getting the Chairman's Circle Award, I think it is. Yeah. We're presenting our Chairman's Award to veteran journalist and author Don Lemon. And also with the former deputy mayor, Maria Torres Springer, will be getting an award tonight. But they are recognizing small businesses.
Don Lemon 3:22
They're recognizing entrepreneurs and successful small businesses, especially minority small businesses. I'm a minority, especially so they are honoring us because not a lot of folks make it when they open businesses. Everybody has an idea and a dream. And it doesn't always pan out, but this one is panning out. So whoop, whoop. Thank you. OK, so will you please hit the thumbs up? Please hit the like. Please thumbs up. Become a member because it keeps us. Oh, that's right. We can't pull it up because we're live on Substack right now, but we'll pull it. Go on Substack and look at it. It is called Betting on Yourself or Bet on Yourself. What I've learned over the last year and a half. Thank you, Jane R., for gifting.
Don Lemon 4:00
Five memberships. Thank you. Because of your generosity, five people get to become members of the elimination. Okay. Grateful that you're here. But one thing I'm not grateful for is this is so embarrassingly cringe. Donald Trump always likes to talk about having respect for the Oval Office and the MAGA people say have respect for the Oval Office when he does not have respect for the presidency or for the Oval Office or for the position that he has.
