Welcome to the program, everyone. Support for the show comes from ZBiotics. Now, let me tell you about something that I actually keep around, especially this time of the year. It's called ZBiotics Pre-Alcohol. ZBiotics Pre-Alcohol is the world's first genetically engineered probiotic created by PhD scientists to help you feel better the morning after drinking. So here's the very simple version. You drink alcohol. It turns into a toxic byproduct in your gut. That buildup, that is what usually makes you feel rough the next day. Pre-alcohol helps to break that down. So I tried it before a night out, drank it before my first cocktail, And the next morning, I felt clear. Not dragging, no dragging, no fog, not foggy, just normal.
And that matters when you've got things to do and people to show up for. So you just make it your first drink of the night. You drink responsibly and let it do the work. So if you are celebrating, catching up with friends, or raising a glass this holiday season, don't forget pre-alcohol. Go to zbiotics.com slash lemon.

Hi, everybody. Happy Christmas Eve. Merry Christmas Eve. How are you?
I'm fantastic.
Awesome, dude. Rick and I, two of these things are like the other, and two of these things are like the other. I mean, you guys are wearing a light shirt and glasses. Rick and I are wearing dark shirt. Our festive hats. Yeah, we're all featuring eyewear. It's roughly the temperature of a volcano, but I'm not hating that right now. Rick, you notice that these hats are so freaking hot. What is wrong? What are they made of? What is...
Whatever it is, it's flammable. It is. It's not cotton.
Don't go near a candle.
Let's see what it's made of. Yeah. It doesn't say because it's so hot it melted the... Right. Whatever. It's probably polyester and polyurethane.
God knows.
Polyvinyl chloride. I don't know.
And who knows what it is. And if it's not made in the U.S., I'm surprised it actually made it through with the tariffs. So there we go.
It's made of joy, Don. It is made of joy.
Oh, I got it. So I'm not the one that I'm wearing, but the one I'm going to show you. Fiber content. 100%. Polyester. No real fur exists in this product. It's faux fur only. Color may be bleached when wet. Do not wash or dry clean. Made in guess where?
Was somebody wondering if that was really real fur? Because I don't really think that was a concern.
They have some of them that are.
Oh, they do?
Okay, since we're on Christmas Eve and we're on the hats, this is my favorite we got a couple years ago. My husband and I got these, and look at mine. Oh, nice. It's an actual full-up Santa. And look.
Oh, my God.
Santa's black, and he has a white one.
Wait, I have to tell you guys a funny story.
Don't show this to you know who.
When I was really little.
There were a lot of people. There was a whole conference I would love to show that to.
Oh, yes.
When I was really little, I went to the Cayman Islands when I was like seven years old for Christmas.
Who joins Don Lemon for this holiday hangout and how do they kick things off?
I went with my mom and my dad and my brother. I was little. And I went and we stayed at a beautiful place in the Cayman Islands for Christmas. And they had a Santa Claus. And the Santa Claus, my parents were like, why don't you go tell Santa Claus what you want for Christmas? And so I went up to the Santa Claus and I said, you're not Santa Claus. And he's like, why not? I said, because you don't look like Santa Claus. Why? Because he was a black Santa Claus. Think about that. So and by the way, nobody ever think that I'm like a racist. What I'm trying to say is this. It's amazing, though, what you don't get exposed to when you're growing up as a child. I like your hat, Don, because it shows a variety of the potential of what Santa Claus could look like.
Santa Claus can be black, brown, white. Whatever. Whatever. It's whatever it is. But ho, ho, ho. He's just efficient. Merry Christmas. That's his thing. It's not about race.
