Welcome to the Don Lemon Show.

I'm so glad that you are here.

As you see, this is Hot Topics and how interesting that we're doing this on Hot Topics.

Here in New York, Hot Topics, Wendy ran in New York at 10 a.m.

She did Hot Topics.

She's now the Hot Topic on this show.

The reason I called this hot topics is because of Wendy

was the hot topics person and she was no longer doing it. And when I spoke to Sherry,

who has Wendy's time slot, now Sherry said, I'm not doing hot topics, Don, go for it. So

Wendy is our hot topics this morning. Okay. And, um, yeah. So I want to talk about this

interview that we, uh, did with, uh, Wendy, okay? And I just want to sort of give you a behind the scenes.

I don't really want to say too much, but I want to give you a behind the scenes of why someone reached out to me.

So let me give you the story.

So Wendy's niece, okay, the backstory.

There's a lot going on here.

I'd been in touch with Wendy's niece and Wendy's sister the entire time because Wendy

used to call me and talk to me randomly and then it all stopped.

And I would try to call her her old numbers.

Nothing.
