The radio programming in Trinidad and Tobago caters to a diverse ethnic demographic. The genesis of radio broadcasting in Trinidad and Tobago began in 1925 with British Rediffusion via a wired relay network. During World War II, the US Armed Forces Radio Service network – WVDI 570 AM Radio began broadcasting in May 1943 from Fort Reid, Chaguaramas. At that time, WVDI mainly serviced the armed forces throughout the Caribbean.

British Rediffusion now Rediffusion (Trinidad) Limited created the Trinidad Broadcasting Company in 1946 which launched Radio Trinidad 730 AM in 1947. On October 13, 1957, Radio Guardian 610 AM was launched with the state acquiring the station and renaming it the National Broadcasting Service or NBS 610 Action Radio on November 1, 1969. NBS went on to launch Radio 100 FM on October 6, 1972, being the first station to broadcast on the FM signal. On March 14, 1976, the Trinidad Broadcasting Company launched 95.1 FM, the first privately owned FM station. On January 1, 1991, Radio 105.1 FM became the first station to broadcast local and Caribbean content. In 1992, Radio 97.1 FM became the first station to broadcast pure Adult Contemporary. On July 5, 1993, Radio 103.1 FM became the first station to broadcast the East-Indian format. On December 16, 1993, Radio 96.1FM became the first station to broadcast the Urban Caribbean, R&B and Hip-Hop format. In 1997, Radio 102.1 FM became the first station to broadcast the "Talk Radio" format.
