Boys Night Out (radio)
Encyclopedia
Boys' Night Out is a Filipino evening radio talk show of Magic 89.9 hosted by DJ's Slick Rick (Eric Virata), Tony Toni (Anthony James Bueno) and Sam YG (Samir Gogna)

Radio Tabloid

Boys' Night Out started as a small segment of Magic 89.9 called Radio Tabloid hosted by King DJ Logan and CJ the DJ. After moderate success the executives of the station decided to turn it into a radio talk show called Boys Night Out on March 2006 with Radio Tabloid becoming one of its segments renamed to Confession Sessions. The show was hosted by King DJ Logan with the addition of Sam YG and Tony Toni. CJ was moved to host the weekday lunch show called the Big Meal.

King DJ Logan left the station to pursue a hosting career, a bar and resto business and worked for an Alabang call center for a time

Slick Rick and the 9pm-12am era

At the time DJ Eric (Eric Virata) was going to leave the Philippine radio industry to get married. He was however offered to join the Boys Night Out. He took the gig, was given a new DJ name, Slick Rick and was added to the DJ Lineup to replace King DJ Logan to complete the trio for BNO and took off with utmost success. He never regrets that moment.

The show was on a 9pm to 12am schedule from Mon-Thu.

Format and Schedule Changes

In 2010, Magic 899 at the turning point of its career as the #1 and most popular radio station in the Philippines, made several changes to its shows' format and time slots very much to the liking of its listeners. Boys Night Out was moved to an earlier and longer timeslot: Mondays-Thursdays, 6pm to 10pm. The show received positive feedback from its fans as it, to quote a listener: "helps ease the pain of traffic during rush hours at EDSA"
