Hello, hello. Can everybody hear me?

Can you all hear me?

Yes.

I feel that a person of my stature deserves a louder round of applause than that.

In fact, I feel that a person of my stature deserves the loudest round of applause you will give this evening.

So I would like that to be an agreement that we make right now.

I'm Mike Greenberg and I've had a very busy day.

I tell you that for a specific reason because it impacts the experience that we are all about to have.

And by all, I mean you and me.

I said to Dominique Foxworth this morning at work,

I'm happy to come by and do the introduction,

but I don't

have time to prepare any remarks. And he said, don't worry, I'll take care of it. So I hold

in my hand an envelope. It is sealed. We are going to read it together for the first time.

The following are the comments Dominique Foxworth has written

for me. If this is the end of my career, it's been fun. The monologue I'm about to read was

written by Dominique, so I have no idea what I'm about to say. I also have no idea who that

little guy co-host of his is.

What is his name?

Chris, Chaz.

Oh yeah, Charlie Kravitz, that guy.

Anyway, welcome everyone to the beautiful Whitby Theatre for this first live edition of the Dominique Foxworth Show.
