On The Nightshift, Shane Hewitt, producer Tony Tedesco and Noah kick things off with a playful take on a Frosted Flakes–Nutella merger before diving into childhood favorites—Tony proudly reps Superman (cape and all), while Noah champions Lego for its endless creativity. The show then soars into a tribute to the 1978 Superman film, with Tony praising Christopher Reeve’s iconic performance and Shane admitting he's not deep into superhero lore.
