Abbot now presents a show on LBC from 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.<ref>{{cite web |url= https://www.lbc.co.uk/news/uk/lbc-schedule-eddie-mair-present-drivetime-show/ |title= New LBC Schedule Revealed: Eddie Mair To Present Weekday Drivetime Show |work= LBC|access-date=2018-08-30}}</ref> Abbot is also occasionally a substitute for other presenters in that time slot.

Featuring commentary and discussion on current affairs and other subjects, the Friday and Saturday night shows have a strong emphasis on humour. His links and commentaries are punctuated by short dialogue clips drawn from film soundtracks and politicians. Calls to the Friday and Saturday shows are often not on serious topics and callers are given free rein. The Sunday night show has a more formal style (featuring serious topics) and does not feature sound clips or humorous material.

Abbot also usually presents a week of A to Z themed shows on LBC during the Christmas period, covers for other LBC presenters on an occasional basis and writes a blog for the LBC website.<ref>{{cite web |url= https://www.lbc.co.uk/radio/presenters/nick-abbot/blog/ |title= NICK'S BLOG |work= LBC |access-date=2018-08-30}}</ref> In March 2017 he launched a new [[podcast]] entitled ''The Nick Abbot Habit''<ref>{{cite web |url= https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-nick-abbot-habit/id1212316368 |title= The Nick Abbot Habit |work= iTunes |access-date=2018-10-19}}</ref> with a second series started in September 2018.
