In addition to calling Lucille Ball the First Lady of Television, Dinah also accords Lucy the titles of First Lady of Show Business and First Lady of Comedy.
Lucy's last sitcom special "Lucy Calls the President" aired five days later.
Lucille Ball gets a stand ovation from the studio audience, who then get the opportunity to ask her questions.
Lucy says she met the US First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt. They talked about canning vegetables and raising children. She never got to know Bess Truman, who was a quiet, private woman. Lucy recalls meeting Mamie Eisenhower at the White House with the cast of "I Love Lucy." She recalls the IKE didn't let her get a word out in a receiving line. When meeting President Johnson, she asked him if all receiving lines were like that, and demonstrated the handshake. According to Lucy, during her demo LBJ was flung to the floor. Lucy met Lady Bird later at their Texas home.
Lucy talks about holding her tongue during Wildcat. She says she shut up "one too many times."
