Dino Costa
If you're looking for a sports talk radio program with some rabid bite to it, this Mad Dog Radio show is sure to satisfy. Dino's stock and trade is his high octane, no nonsense approach. Dino cuts through the clutter and delivers with a high impact dose of sports talk radio that leaves the listener with no doubt as to the feelings of “The Mile High Mouth.” No two programs are ever the same, but the non-stop need to opine on myriad topics is a consistent part of every program. Dino has done sports radio and rattled cages in places like Jacksonville, Fla., Wheeling, West Va., and Denver. He's been a part of the Colorado Rockies pre- & post-game shows on FSN Rocky Mountain and he's hosted his own sports talk television program on FSN.
