After moderate success the executives of the station decided to turn it into a radio talk show called Boys Night Out in March 2006 with Radio Tabloid becoming one of its segments renamed to Confession Sessions.

Format and Schedule Changes

In 2010, Magic 89.9, 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 to 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 [sic] EDSA"

In 2015, they interviewed former Japanese AV Idol Maria Ozawa. [2] [3]

Boys Night Out reduced into 3 hours from 6pm to 9pm. It used to moved into earlier timeslot before from 5pm to 7pm during the whole quarantine period.

Sam YG left Boys Night Out after 17 years to pursue other hosting stints such as events and podcasts. Gino Quillamor joins as the 4th co-host of the show and later, replacement for Sam YG. Tin Gamboa (formerly known as Suzy) added as the only female co host in this show. Since 2023, Shannon Robinson also joins the show in between those days.

On May 19, 2025, Boys Night Out moved back to the 9:00 pm to 12:00 mn.

On September 30, 2025, the show silently aired its final episode after 19 years on air. The show was supposed to end on October 2, 2025 but the management decided to suspend all of the show's hosts due to remarks made by co-host Tin Gamboa during the September 29 episode.
