> On Monday’s “Today,” former South Bend mayor and Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg announced he will be subbing in for Jimmy Kimmel Thursday night.

(Oh, and for those that don’t recognize him from that clip, [Millionaire Teve Torbes](https://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/nightline/n10843) was a maverick candidate who had Washington insiders running scared. He also had an undeniable animal magnetism that drove the ladies crazy. It was clear Teve Torbes had it goin’ on.)
