We start with something that's going to be very helpful for you for football season and the holidays, okay? So support comes from Z-Biotics. Now, I've got to tell you about this game changer that I use before a night out. It is called pre-alcohol. Z-Biotics is the world's first genetically engineered probiotic created by PhD scientists to help you feel great the next day. You know, here's how it works. When you drink, alcohol turns into a toxic byproduct right in your gut. And that's what makes you feel rough the next morning. It's not that dehydration where everyone says, oh, you're dehydrated. No, it's a toxic byproduct that's in your gut. Pre-alcohol produces an enzyme that breaks that stuff down.
I first tried it before a big night out dinner. I've told you before, right? The next morning, up early. Feeling great, ready to do this show, feeling like myself. And now with fall here, as I said, football weekends, tailgates, you know, they're back. So make pre-alcohol your first drink of the night. Enjoy yourself and still crush the next day. Go to zbiotics.com slash lemon to get 15% off of your first order with code lemon. And if you're not happy for any reason, they're going to refund you. No questions asked. That's zbiotics.com slash lemon. Good evening, everyone. What did you say, Snooze77? Come on now. Thank you very much. That was very kind. I just saw someone had a complimentary thing about me in the chat.
Good evening, everyone. Welcome to Lemon Live at 5. So glad that you're here. Hi, Wanda Bridges. Let me know where you guys are streaming from or watching us from. Got a big, big show for you. And you know, Lemon Nation, I just have to tell you, I'm so happy and proud of you. So... I don't know if you guys remember when I was in New York City the other night and I bumped into this guy and his name is John Heilman or some Heilman. And he is a writer and a contributor over at MSNBC. And he does all kinds of things. He used to work for the circus. I was on Showtime. And so anyway, I bumped into him. Do you remember that guy? So he said, Don, I had no idea of the power of, you know what, this is a little wide.
He said, I had no idea of the power of independent media and the power of elimination because he said, I just didn't know. He goes, I heard from, I think he said he heard from more people than when he's actually like on cable news. He said, I heard from so many people that it came back to him so many times. Like his college roommate, I think he said, or a friend from college. I forget exactly what he said. And he makes sure I'm in the middle. Am I in the middle? He put up that little thingy. You want to show everyone the behind the scenes here? Yeah, sure. ah good all right there you go thank you very much so um he said he heard it from so many people and he just said i had no idea of the reach you had he goes i knew that you had established a beachhead in independent media but i had no idea the the reach and the power and so i was like wow and so i don't think people even realize that i swear i tell you all the time and tim notices when he's out at dinner people come over to the table i'm like wow i mean i want to eat but um
I don't want to disturb the people that I'm eating with all the time, but it is very heartening. So thank you so much. So make sure that you're a subscriber, okay? Make sure that you're a member of the Lemon Nation. I have been told by everyone that my memberships are too low, but I like to keep it affordable, okay? And so there you go. So hit the thumbs up. It affects the algorithm. Hit the like, and thank you again for all of your support. So welcome to the Don Lemon Show, everybody.
