In light of comedian Jimmy Kimmel hosting this year's Academy Awards, we're revisiting his "Fresh Air" interview from 2013. In the episode, he talks about setting up camp in the 11:35 p.m. slot, which put him head-to-head with Jay Leno and Kimmel's idol, David Letterman. The late-night talk-show host put a personal mark on his show by bringing in his family to help him make it happen.

This interview originally aired January 23, 2013.
