History
In November 2016, ABC announced that Nightlife would move to a 7-day format. This decision was met with criticism from within Australian country music circles and from Australian religious leaders as the new 7-day format prompted the ABC to remove the long-running Saturday Night Country with Felicity Urquhart from metropolitan ABC stations and to completely axe the religious and ethics program Sunday Nights with John Cleary.
Segments
The show usually has a guest in the first hour, including a large portion of the time set for audience talkback. The second hour also has guests, but without a talkback section followed by "What The Papers Say", when the major Australian newspapers reveal their main stories for the next day. The third hour usually involves a quiz named "The Mighty Challenge", while the fourth hour includes another chance for audience feedback in the "Issue of the Day", followed by a book reading.
In 2007, the popular "Not the Nightly News" segment was discontinued.
