Costa grew up in East Cambridge, Massachusetts, where he graduated from Cambridge Rindge and Latin School. He attended Merrimack College in Massachusetts on a hockey scholarship, majoring in English.

After transferring to Emerson College in Boston, he found a job as a disc jockey at a local nightclub. He later joined the Emerson radio station, WERS, as a DJ.

After graduating from Emerson with a degree in English, Costa worked at a few other radio stations, including WBOS, before contacting WXKS-FM "Kiss 108" in 1980 for a lifestyle/entertainment news show he proposed.

As of September 2013, the TV Diner show has been cancelled by NECN and new episodes will no longer be created.
