NAB Marconi Submission: WOWO Legendary Station

For more than a century, WOWO Radio has remained one of America’s most recognized and respected radio stations.

Founded in 1925, WOWO continues to combine heritage broadcasting with innovative programming, award-winning news coverage, and unmatched community service. In 2025, WOWO celebrated 100 years on the air while continuing to expand its statewide and national presence. 

The station broadcasted live from the U.S. Capitol to help kick off America’s 250th Birthday celebration. WOWO also recently opened a state-of-the-art broadcasting facility, hosting nationally syndicated broadcasters including Glenn Beck and Clay Travis & Buck Sexton. WOWO’s legacy has been shaped by legendary broadcasters including Hall of Famers Bob Sievers and Bob Chase, whose influence helped define generations of radio excellence.

WOWO also continued its commitment to Northeast Indiana through 78 years of the Penny Pitch campaign. Over the past decade alone, Penny Pitch has raised more than $1 million supporting organizations including Shepherd’s House, Ronald McDonald House Charities of Northeast Indiana, Honor Flight Northeast Indiana, and Breastie Boxes.

WOWO has earned multiple NAB Marconi Radio Awards, including 2014 and 2022 Medium Market Station of the Year.
