The Late Shift

In the latest episode, we dive into an underrated film that captures the legendary battle for late-night supremacy with wit and gravitas. Each person has their own favourite Jimmy, it’s either Kimmel or Fallon but never both. Conan O'Brien may have pivoted to podcasts and perhaps, headlining that oddball travel show but the highlight of his CV remains being one of the most compelling hosts on TV. No one loves Meyers, everyone misses Trevor Noah and few may have managed to pull off a remarkable second innings like Jon Steward. Yes, you’ve guessed it! We’re talking exclusively about those TV hosts who’ve ruled over late-night television with their astounding wit, fluid interviewing skills and that distinguished chutzpah. And in today’s episode of Lost and Found, we’re delving into a film that’s based on the real-life rivalry between two talk show hosts in the 90s – yes, we’re alluding to the 1996 film, The Late Shift.
