Hi, I'm AJ, and I believe that late night talk shows are the best form of entertainment. I've always loved staying up to watch these shows. I'd watch The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, I remember Conan O'Brien, Jon Stewart, and I love Craig Ferguson. I even would go back and watch the oldies with Johnny Carson. When I was 7 years old, I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, which really wasn't easy. What helped me was late night. Whenever I was having a tough time with any aspect of my life, these comedic heroes were there for me to make me laugh and forget my troubles. Even now, whenever I have a bad day, I use these shows to escape and laugh. These shows are what I'm passionate about, and why I'm studying film TV and journalism today at Fordham. I hope someday I could have the same impact on somebody that these great comics have had on me. Thank you.
