Real Radio is a term used to describe some hot talk radio stations or radio shows in the United States. The format, or at least a definition and name for the format, seems to have originated in the 1990s.

Real Radio is also a brand of regional radio stations in the United Kingdom owned by GMG Radio. The brand was developed by John Myers around the year 2000 or 2001, who was also responsible for the similar early format of Century FM.

Currently three stations operate in the UK under the Real Radio banner:

All three stations carry programming presented by Tony Blackburn, Gary Davies and Mark Goodier. In the past all three stations carried Nick Abbot with his late night phone in show.
