Oprah also sat down with Hamilton creator, Lin-Manuel Miranda, where she reiterated that she is not running for President.

“What Hamilton has done is give me a big megaphone,” Manuel said about the platform that allows him to discuss racial/social issues and history. “I’m not running for office.”

“I’m not either,” Oprah Winfrey said to a roar of applause.

Oprah’s Super Soul Conversations, which also include discussions with Get Out director Jordan Peele, actress Salma Hayek -Pinault, Trevor Noah, and Stephen Colbert will air on OWN at the end of this month.

The show was opened by our two new favorites, 2 Dope Queens, Phoebe Robinson and Jessica Williams.  Check out this fan girl moment Phoebe had with momma Oprah below:
