In September 2022, WRCE (formerly WRCO-AM) changed its format from standards to progressive talk as "News from the Center".[2] With the format change WRCE introduced a new locally produced morning show hosted by Todd Albaugh. WRCE also covers local high school sports play by play and is an affiliate of the Wisconsin Badgers football and basketball radio networks. One of the first interviews on the new format was an interview of longtime local politician Dale Schultz.
