Why does Don open with a message about audio and the Lemonheads community?

Don Lemon 0:23
Hello and welcome to Live at Five, Lemon Live at Five. Boy, have I got a show for you and I got a lot to get out. You know, I just realized that our folks who are watching us on TikTok right now, they can't hear the show. So producers, I'm going to change. I'm going to take my earpiece out, okay? And I'm going to put on the regular thing so everybody can hear the show because we're not actually simulcasting. So can you guys hear me, producers? Just answer me back if you can hear me. Here.
Nikki (producer) 0:53
Yeah, I can hear you.
Don Lemon 0:55
OK, good, because we need to have the show up. I just realized that. So I can't. So it may be a little bit muffled. The audio gets a little weird when I don't wear my earpiece and people are talking over each other. We're just going to have to deal with it because I want to know. We have a very special show for you today. We have our Lemonheads, some of our members who are up on the screen. They are here on New Year's Eve celebrating with us and talking about all the breaking news. So let me say hello to the Lemonheads, and then we're going to get to some business. Lemonheads, welcome to the program. Welcome to the show. Put them up. How are you guys? There you are. Hey, Don.
Unknown 1:30
Hey, Don.
Don Lemon 1:31
Happy New Year.
Unknown 1:33
Good afternoon.
Don Lemon 1:34
Hey. Afternoon? Where are you afternoon?
Unknown 1:38
Well, it's 5 o'clock here, so it's 5 o'clock somewhere, right?
Don Lemon 1:42
It's 5 o'clock somewhere, and you know what I'm saying, okay? And it's New Year's Eve, so here's a toast to you guys. Okay, so look. There's a couple things that I need to talk about before we get to the actual show, the predictions, the fun New Year stuff. I had no idea. Here I am minding my own Black business. And people are like, oh my gosh, you are blowing up the internet. Fox News is talking about you. Who else was talking about you? Did you guys hear about this controversy?
Unknown 2:18
Honestly, no, nothing. No? No. Yeah, I don't turn it on anymore. You don't turn it on at all? It's hard to get stuff today.
Don Lemon 2:28
What did you hear?
Unknown 2:31
Are you talking about the farmers that you were swearing about, Don? I saw that all over TikTok. I was like, damn. It's on YouTube. I'm talking about. They have you on the news. They have you in the news. They have you in HuffPost today. Yep, you're everywhere, dude. Don calling out the Maganuts for being dumb ass. Being dumb asses, yeah.
Don Lemon 2:55
OK.
Unknown 2:57
Being a donkey out of you.
Don Lemon 3:01
Let me say this. Let me jump in here. I'm glad a lot of you said you haven't heard because you don't watch Legacy Media anymore, right?
Unknown 3:06
No. No. I can't. What's the team? I can't do it. Election Day was the last day. That was it. That was it.
Don Lemon 3:14
You're done. No, I don't watch it. Okay, so stand by, Lemonheads. I'm so glad that you're here, so stand by. More will join a little bit later on. Let me get to this, and then we'll get to the fun. Okay, so make sure, guys, hit record, call your reporter or whatever, and tell them to watch. If you want to put this on your Fox News or on your Hill or on your Newsmax or on your Daily Mails or Post, go for it. I don't give a you-know-what, okay? I don't give a you-know-what because the hypocrisy is astounding as it relates to especially the MAGA folks right now and the right-wing media. It is astounding, the hypocrisy. Now, Let me just say this. I said something in reference to I was responding to the MAGA folks who were being racist in relation in regards to the gentleman that Donald Trump nominated to be the head of AI.
Don Lemon 4:17
They were on the Internet. Look it up yourself. Being very racist and very vitriolic about Donald Trump appointing this person. And Vivek Ramaswamy got involved and then he insulted, according to them, the MAGA people. OK, so as always, everybody gets all butthurt. I'm not referring to all of Trump supporters. I'm talking to the MAGA brain people. who will say and do anything to make excuses for any behavior that Donald Trump does, any bad behavior that the MAGA movement does. So, yes, I stand by my words. And if you don't like what I said, then too effing bad. I don't care. And let me just let me point the hypocrisy out to you, because you guys always say we are not electing.
