From 2008 until 2012, the station aired progressive talk shows as brokered time including a local show hosted by Jeff Santos. The station then changed its call letters to WUFC and returned to a sports format as an affiliate of NBC Sports Radio from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. weekdays, with a local show, "The Bawstin Diehards", from 10:00 a.m. to Noon. Yahoo! Sports Radio (the successor to Sporting News Radio) aired at other times. The NBC Sports Radio affiliation lasted until late 2013, when Yahoo! took over NBC's hours. In June 2014, the station began airing a libertarian talk radio format. On November 17, 2014, the station reverted to its original call sign, WMEX. The change coincided with the move of "The Howie Carr Show" to the station from WRKO. Carr's show returned to WRKO on March 16, 2015.
