What is the show's opening vibe and who is the guest introduced?
You know what that music means. You know it. You know it. You love it. That means it's time for the Don Lemon Show. Lemon Live at 5. Welcome, everybody. It's Friday. Oh, thank God it's Friday. And I just got paid. Who knows that song? Going cross town. Going to pick up my lady. Have a little bit of wow. Anyways, that's how we do it here on the Don Lemon Show. What a week it has been. Welcome. Let me know where you're streaming from, where you're watching us from. I do, right? That was the OJs. Am I right? The OJs and the Isley Brothers kind of cross over for me a little bit, but I think that was it. I think that was the same as, yeah, I think that was the OJs. Anywho, we wore that, I don't know if it was 8-track or cassette, out in our 1976 Cadillac Eldorado.
We listened to the OJs, going to New Orleans from Baton Rouge. We thought we were big time. Okay, so what a week. Remember when we thought that Signalgate week? was long and it, like, reeked. It was wracked with chaos. We were like, oh, my gosh, Signalgate, what are they doing? And then, holy schmoly, hi, Alabama, hi, Florida, hi, Ohio on TikTok, hi, North Carolina, hi, South Carolina, Cadillac, El Dorado, nice, El Dog, still great. Those doors were like, I mean, huge, enormous because they were it was a two door and the hood was longer than the entire rest of the car. So anyways, I'm glad you guys are here. Thank you so much. The Liberation Day tariffs. Watch all that unfold and said, hold my beer. They said, hold my beer and watch.
Watch. TikTok is going to pick that up like I am promoting alcohol. because they're, anyway, we won't talk about that. So remember Stefan? Do you guys remember Stefan? Stefan said, this week had everything. This week had everything. It had tariffs. It had a spiraling stock market. It had a Supreme Court decision. It had, well, Stefan talked about something in the middle of it. River, but we won't talk about that because that's not a good thing. So tariff stock market implosion. Incident of an economist. Plane crashes. A war on penguins. So it's all, look, it's insane. So you can either laugh or you can cry. We choose to laugh on this show. And guess who's going to help us with that? Help us break down all this BS.
From the week with me, that is very funny lady, stand-up comedian and author, Dulce Sloan is here. Hey, boo. Hi, Prince. How you doing?
Good. I haven't seen you since the Glenn Awards. Oh, that's right. We were hanging out. Yeah, I got nominated for my interview with my mother, Sasha Colby. I don't know if you know that I am a member of the House of Colby. Thank you so much. I heard an interview about being a happy trans person. And I lost to Jennifer Hudson. But, you know, to lose to Jennifer Hudson is to still win.
I would say that's a win. So, anyway, congratulations on being nominated. It was very good with your mom. Thank you. We will live together. We will always have a connection in history. Let me play it. The media to tell us what your resolutions are. Yes.
How did tariffs, the stock market and ‘plan all along’ claims spark the hosts' critique?
What your wish is for 2022.
You know what my resolution is? Yes. For 2022? Yes. No more broke. Okay. No more what? No more broke. No more from a man that has no money.
Did you say broke?
Yeah. See, because this is what happened. Y'all talk about the backstory, okay?
So, this is the backstory. I was just noticing Allison's daughter was sitting there like,
Oh, my God, because she looked over and was like, because she goes, my daughter. I was like, your daughter is in college. She needs to learn now. I said, also, by looking at your outfit, your daughter's not going to be having these problems, right? So here's the thing. So you asked me, because this is when we came back from the commercial break. You asked me, thank you, Amy. Before the commercial break, you were like, what's your New Year's resolution? I was like, I don't really have one. And you leaned to me and went, you're going to have a New Year's resolution when we come back. I said that? Yes. And I was like, okay. And then I was like, well, what's truly on my heart? and so that's where i was in my journey as a person because i was like i can't continue to do these things and so my friends have been saying it for years and so uh i just tried to educate
