What is the world's longest-running talk show?

Talk shows are like the comfort food of television. Whether you're into the late-night laughs, daytime drama, or those round table gab-fests where everyone talks over each other (admit it, you love it), there's a flavor for every taste.

And oh boy, have they given us some moments. Remember when Tom Cruise went full gymnast on Oprah's couch? Or that time Madonna turned the air blue on Letterman, dropping F-bombs like she was getting paid per bleep? This stuff isn't just TV, folks - it's the glue that holds our water cooler conversations together!

But it's not all celebs going off the rails. These shows have their warm and fuzzy moments too. Long-lost relatives reunited, everyday heroes getting their moment in the spotlight, and sometimes, an entire audience losing their minds over free cars. (Oprah, if you're reading this, my car could use an upgrade. Just saying.)

Talk shows have come a long way, baby. They started as simple chit-chats and somehow evolved into these wild circus acts. Now we've got hosts putting their guests through gauntlets of embarrassing games and stunts that'll make you wonder if their insurance covers "death by talk show shenanigans."

Now, imagine a talk show that's seen it all. The rise and fall of bell-bottoms, the birth of the internet, and more celebrity meltdowns than you can shake a stick at. A show that's been around so long, it remembers when "tweeting" was just for the birds. Which talk show has been flapping its gums on our screens longer than any other?
