Programming

WZZL airs a mixuture of classic rock and mainstream rock. After WZYK changed formats, dropping classic rock, WZZL adjusted their ratios to attempt to fill some of the hole left by WZYK, but were not able to do so before WJLI went Classic Rock 5 days after WZYK dropped the format. Prior to that time the music mixture was 20% classic rock to 80% mainstream rock. Afterwards it was closer to 70% classic rock and 30% mainstream rock.

The station also carried the syndicated The Bob & Tom Show weekday mornings, until January 2016. After Bob Kevoian retired and Kristi Lee was fired, WZZL optioned to no longer carry the program.
