'When you don't have a real audience - you have to fake one just like Trump's inauguration,' Pete Buttigieg joked as he took over hosting duties for JimmyKimmelLive without a live audience
Later in his monologue, Buttigieg addressed why he was chosen to host"A lot of folks are wondering how I ended up getting booked to host this show - and all I can say is that Iowa Caucus app really screwed everything up," he said. Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?"You know some people have been skeptical about me hosting a show like this. They’re like 'you’re too inexperienced… you’ll never be a good late night host.
Joking that after ending his presidential campaign he's "got nothing else going on," Buttigieg says he felt was right to walk away unlike others who have chosen not to. "Some candidates know when it’s time to get out of the race, and some candidates are Tulsi Gabbard." "I do hope - at the very least - my presidential run has inspired some people. I mean right now - somewhere out there in America - there could a young kid thinking: “One day - I too can run for president while dressed like the manager of a Carmax."
"And although we didn’t win, we did achieve some pretty big milestones. I’m the first gay person to ever win a presidential primary or caucus. And the first gay man in thirty years to wear pleated pants. We all have our journey." Later in the night, Buttigieg welcomed guests Sir Patrick Stewart and Tony Hale. He also interviewed at Wetzel's Pretzels to jokingly find a job. Though the manger said he wasn't "Wetzel's material," he proceeded to hand out free samples to pedestrians outside.
