Gov. Tim Walz made his first late-night appearance as the vice presidential candidate Monday, talking with Jimmy Kimmel about subjects as varied as gun violence, hotdish recipes and Diet Mountain Dew.

Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) had a friendly and generally light-hearted late night debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live tonight, with only a brief mention of last week’s debate and much focus on his past as a high school teacher.

The Minnesota governor and Kamala Harris' running mate will sit down with Kimmel with less than one month to go before the presidential election.
