Tony Delroy's NightLife is a night light for night owls.

Tony Delroy openly admits to being a bit eccentric. After all, he does preside over the witching hour, broadcasting Tony Delroy's NightLife across midnight throughout Australia on ABC Local Radio's 60 stations.

Tony's career in radio began while he was studying for his HSC. As he tells it; 'I got a job in the 2SM newsroom. They always say start a the bottom, and the newsroom was in the basement.' After finishing his exams, Tony joined the ABC newsroom while waiting for University to begin. He then worked as a late night DJ at Bathurst, while studying journalism.

Tony joined 702 ABC Sydney in 1987, filling in on everything from breakfast to afternoons, Grandstand to news bulletins, before becoming the host of the late night program. Within two years, the program went national. Tony admits that his wide range of interests is carried into the program and he spends his spare time reading books, magazines and newspapers.

Tony had an ulterior motive behind wanting the late night shift. 'My previous job as News Director of 2UE meant rising at 3.30 every morning, and I vowed that I was going to find a job where I could sleep in'. He loves his hours and adores his late night family of listeners, who range from 9 year olds to 90 year olds.

Tony Delroy's NightLife is a diverse mix of news and current affairs, lifestyle and entertainment. Regular features include the incredibly popular quiz The Challenge and the laughs from Not the Nightly News. Money matters, science and technology, spiritual questions, human and family issues are discussed with experts, and listeners are given many opportunities for interaction and talkback.

Just listening to your travel guy. In speaking about Hawaii, you guys didn't even say you were basically talking about Honolulu/Waikiki and a bit about the north side of the island or Oahu. The other islands are marvellous paradises. So many more interesting things to dwell upon. Disappointing. - Ardsley

Please stop playing "Danny Boy" - three times in 7 days is just too much for a very loyal listener who detests this loathsome dirge.
