What is Don Lemon's opening overview of tonight's topic and why is he 'nervous' about the election?
Hello, everyone out there in YouTube land, on iHeart, on Spotify, on Apple. Thank you so much for joining us. We really do appreciate it today. And today also on the TikTok. We are live as well on TikTok. Uh, it's CMA who's in the chat on the YouTube. What do you mean? I'm always late. I'm not late today. It's five o'clock. Well, it's five Oh two. Uh, so we were here chatting. I got lost in your comments. I got lost, like talking to the folks, uh, on Tik TOK, also talking to the folks, um, in the chat here. Cause you guys start the show show before I do. And so anyway, I'm really, really happy that you're here and you're helping us to build as we tell everyone every day, this lemon nation or, um, or that you're a lemon head.
So we're happy that you're part of the Lemon Nation that you're Lemonhead. OK, great show for you guys on every platform that we're on. As you notice, my glasses always slide down. So I have these nerdy eyeglass grips on. So I'm a nerd today. OK, I'm going to be a big nerd. I'm a big boomer. So listen, this is we're going to talk about. Feel free to weigh in on any platform that you're watching us on amid tightening polls with only 19 days. Can you believe it's only 19 days of the election? 19 days until the election. Vice President Kamala Harris has agreed to participate in her first sit-down interview, and guess who she's doing it with? She's doing it with none other than the Fox News, the supposedly we-report-you-decide crowd, okay?
Fair and balanced. It is her latest effort to try to broaden this appeal among independents and Republicans. She wants to get in new voters' conservative, more conservative voters, undecided voters. The interview airs at 6 p.m. Eastern tonight. And I don't know about you, but I'm nervous. Are you nervous? Are you scared? Are you nervous? I don't know about you, but I'm a little bit nervous about this because you never know what the guy she's going on with, okay? And we're going to talk about that. Also tonight, I have a guest to help me out to preview this conversation with Fox's Brett Baer. Also a guest who could chat with me and all of us about how to stay sane amid the chaos. calm, cool, and collected.
Without further ado and delay is none other than Victoria Jackson. Victoria Jackson, good to see you.
Good to see you. I'm such a fan and I'm excited to be part of Lemonation.
Are you going to become a Lemonhead?
Yeah, of course. I already am.
Duh. Thank you. You said you used to watch me every night on cable, right?
I watched you every night. There wasn't a night that went by that I wasn't tuning in to see my Don Lemon. You are my Don Lemon.
Oh, thank you. I appreciate that. Let me tell you about this Victoria Jackson. She's an entrepreneur. She's a cosmetics pioneer, a philanthropist. She's an author. What else are you?
Oh, gosh, I'm a mom. I'm a busy lady. I'm just, you know, I'm a human being trying to do the good work here on planet Earth.
You know what? I put this like touch up my appearance thing on by accident. It's looking a little too smooth there. I got a little blemish from, I had an ingrown hair here. Okay. So here's the thing. Also, she has a brand new book out. Okay. That we want to talk about. We all worry. We all worry. Now what? You know, I can really relate to that. It's about the steps that you can take to reduce anxiety, even in today's polarized, stressful political environment. OK, the book includes thought provoking wisdom from political icons from Arianna Huffington. You know, I just saw Arianna Huffington on a firing line broadcast years ago with William F. Buckley Jr. Remember that when she would appear?
Yes.
Why is Kamala Harris appearing on Fox News with Bret Baier and what strategic risks does that pose?
Yeah. It was about being a gay conservative or gay Republican. And this guy was a gay conservative and he had come down with AIDS and he was saying, you know, it happened because he was promiscuous in his youth. And it was very interesting time to hear how differently people are talking about the subject. OK. Arianna Huffington, Gloria Steinem, Jane Fonda, Monica Lewinsky and so on. So you're doing OK.
I'm doing great.
You are.
