Luke Burbank (born May 8, 1976) is an American radio host and podcaster who hosts the Portland, Oregon-based syndicated variety show "Live Wire Radio" and the Seattle-based former radio program and current podcast Too Beautiful to Live. He was most recently co-host of "The Ross and Burbank Show" and host of "The Luke Burbank Show" on Seattle's KIRO-FM radio station. Burbank is also a correspondent for CBS News Sunday Morning.

Burbank was raised at Lighthouse Ranch, on Table Bluff, in Humboldt County, California, where he spent his private time listening to radio shows. In the 1980s his parents moved to Seattle, Washington, where he also attended high school.

Early in his radio career, Burbank worked in Seattle as a producer for the conservative talk show host Kirby Wilbur, as well as the public radio station's KUOW 94.9 FM local talk show The Conversation and the public radio satire show "Rewind". Later, Burbank moved to Los Angeles, California, where he began booking appearances for the National Public Radio (NPR) program Day to Day and worked as an assignment reporter on shows All Things Considered and Morning Edition. On November 2, 2001, he had a story aired on This American Life.
