<p>On 21 November last year, Chieng appeared as the show&#8217;s guest host for the first time.</p>
<p>&#8220;I am Ronny Chieng, and I am guest-hosting for one day only. Dreams do come true,&#8221; Chieng deadpanned on the episode, adding teasingly, &#8220;I just want to thank the network for believing in me for 23 minutes only.&#8221;</p>
