Best radio presenter ever?

Love listening to him of a night. The late night quiz is the best radio segment around. What The Papers Say is also quite good.

What are peoples thoughts? Has anyone called in, or is anyone a Late Night Quiz regular?

I called in once, got a question right about the Famous Five.
 
I used to listen to his after midnight quiz when I was 15 or 16 (man, I was a player back then...) and every few years I tune in to make sure it still exists.

And yeah, Tony is a class act.

Love listening to him and his show, especially the Challenge; hate the people who ring up during it to tell him whatever boring stuff they did and didn't do during the day and WON'T ANSWER THE DAMN QUESTION. See also the people who clearly don't know the answer and probably never have but um and ah for ages and won't go - hang up and let someone else have a shot.

Apart from that though, great late night show.
 
Great radio presenter. Always have Tony going home from work.

Love Hollywood Hot Goss - always a laugh.

Cannot stand Clare Clavet.."im not a prude but.." BORING.

Did actually win the Challenge once. Won a book on how to become rich in 5 years or something, a magazine and some other things that dont matter.

Won it on coming in on the last question that had taken out a few before me.

Q - who wrote MONKEY GRIP?


Answer below



As this is a regular question on Nightlife I remembered with the combo - Helen Reddy the singer married Joel Garner the cricketer she would be HELEN GARNER.

Haha! Same.

"Here come da judge..."

"The remainder of this quiz will be conducted in a clue... free... zone."

Mint.
 
I cant stand Jeramiah. He is a cheat and a nuisance, and it is too hard to understand him. Tony knows it now, so gives him nothing.

But when Tony is away he milkd the kindness of the new hosts to try and get clues when in the clue free zone. I just wanna punch him in the head!
 
Haven't heard it in a long time, but the one guy I couldn't stand was Nevin. A know-it-all who then phoned in under a different name when he wasn't allowed to play.

I used to listen to it for a while. Listen to SEN most nights though.

Everyone always asks Tony Can i ask the brains trust???
The brains trust are probably on google searching for the answer as we speak!

i agree love listening to him. a great presenter
 
Always liked Tony. We don't get SEN in the ACT so there isn't alot of choice.

Quite like Trevor Chappell as well. Did anybody ever hear that phone call he took from a guy who had been 'taken' by a creature near the Pillaga Forrest. That was damn creepy. I won on Trevor's quiz with a question about an Australian olympic swimmer - can't remember who it was now. Won a DVD that I gave to my parents.

Rod Quinn is ok too, as long as you don't ask him for an opinion.

When in Melbourne, I must admit to being a fan of Red Symons as well. Although I to tend to find myself listening to SEN when I am within broadcast range.
 
Yeah Trevor Chappell is quite good if you listen on the weekend from about 2-6 i think.

After 26 years presenting the NIGHTLIFE on ABC radio around Australia, Tony Delroy is hanging up the microphone.

Tonight, Friday 2nd September 2016 will be Tony's last night on his show from 10pm.

Dominic Knight takes over in a temp capacity until a permanent replacement is found.

I haven't been able to listen a lot in recent years. But I'll be stopping what I'd normally do to make sure I listen to the whole show tonight.

The show has a life of it's own, and should pretty much remained unchanged despite a different host. It will be fascinating to see who they replace him with.
