Costas on the Radio is a weekly syndicated radio program hosted by sportscaster Bob Costas. Each two-hour show features Costas administering one or two longform interviews (usually lasting for an entire hour) of various athletes, sports book authors, journalists, and other entertainers and newsmakers not necessarily involved in the sports industry. Guests usually appear in studio, but interviews are occasionally administered over the telephone. Costas describes the show in a promo as having "something for everyone." Each show is recorded on Thursday afternoon, and Premiere Radio feeds the program to its affiliates via satellite four times each weekend. Affiliate stations have the option to tape the feed and air it anytime on Saturday or Sunday.

Packaged with the show are the daily minute-long Costas Cut and Costas Minute features, for sports and news/talk stations respectively. The features include bits from prior interviews on the main show.

The show began its run on September 16, 2006. It originates from studios in New York City and is syndicated across the United States and Canada on terrestrial radio by Premiere Radio Networks and also airs three times each weekend on XM Talk Radio 165.

The show is produced by Bruce Cornblatt, a longtime associate of Costas. Cornblatt is frequently heard on-air, especially during segments in which Costas has no guest.

Costas on the Radio succeeds Costas Coast to Coast, a syndicated call-in radio show hosted by Costas from 1986-1996.

Guests of Costas on the Radio have included (but are not limited to) the following:
