Late night: Five guests to get excited for this week – January 28, 2019

Dave Salmoni on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
Jimmy Kimmel Live! kicks off the week by welcoming one back on the show’s most popular guests. Animal expert Dave Salmoni will be bringing some of his friends on Monday, Jan. 28.
Salmoni has been coming on the show for years despite Kimmel’s uneasiness around animals. Last week we told you to keep an eye out for Robert Irwin on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. Similar to Kimmel, Fallon wasn’t too eager to get up close and personal with the animals but it still made for great television.
It isn’t really a late night show if the host doesn’t have his own personal animal expert. Salmoni has been Kimmel’s choice and he always brings out an animal we haven’t seen on television before. And that may be partly the reason Kimmel is always quick to put the desk between himself and whatever animal Salmoni tries to show off.
But that is part of the appeal when Salmoni visits Jimmy Kimmel Live!. The late night host is always calm, cool, and collected around big name celebrities. But even the smallest of critters can throw Kimmel off and get the audience laughing. Be sure to tune in on Monday night and watch what happens.
