Show Notes

He worked for CNN for 17 years. One day last year Don Lemon woke up to find out he he'd been fired. He'd won Emmys for his reporting and also hosted Don Lemon Tonight where he talked about controversial topics with politicians and newsmakers. It was after Lemon began co-hosting a morning show that he ran into trouble. He made a comment about a former Republican Presidential candidate in a discussion about age: "Nikki Haley is not in her prime, sorry." After leaving CNN, Lemon made a deal with Elon Musk to host an exclusive show on X. That fell apart and Lemon's show is now streaming on digital platforms and YouTube TV. He's also written a book called I Once Was Lost about his Christian faith. "Now What?" is produced with the help of Steve Zimmer, Lucy Little and Jackie Schwartz. Audio production is by Nick Ciavatta.
