The station launched in the mid-1990s and initially featured music mostly from Rock and Roll's formative years. By 2008, WOGB had transitioned to a Classic Hits format, featuring primarily hit songs from the 1970s and 1980s. WOGB is owned by Cumulus Media.

It participates annually in the "Coats For Kids" campaign, and helps a variety of charities with fundraising efforts, including The American Heart Association, the Breast Cancer Family Foundation, Rebuilding Together of Greater Green Bay, the Brown County Volunteer Center and a variety of other public interest groups and charities. Since 2012, WOGB has been directly involved promoting the City of Green Bay's annual "Kid's Day" activities, held every June 25.

The station's current on-air lineup includes Rachel Williams (6am-9am), Jeff Kelly (9am-2pm), Dan Markus (2pm-7pm), and Joel St. John and Jenna Jakes (weekends).
