“On the radio” is a fixed phrase. “Radio” is pretty much always preceded by “the”. The only situation I can think of where it’s not is when “radio” is being used as an adjective. For example:
He’s doing a study on radio waves.
In the past, people relied on radio shows and newspapers for information about current events because there was no television.
