On August 30, 2013, a deal was announced in which Cumulus Media would swap its stations in Dubuque, Iowa and Poughkeepsie, New York (including WPDA) to Townsquare Media in exchange for Peak Broadcasting's Fresno, California stations. The deal is part of Cumulus' acquisition of Dial Global; Townsquare, Peak, and Dial Global are all controlled by Oaktree Capital Management.[3][4] The sale to Townsquare was completed on November 14, 2013.[5]

A radio station with call sign WPDA "in Cedarburg, New Jersey" is mentioned in an episode of The Twilight Zone (Season 2, Episode 20, "Static"), although this episode predates the launch of the real-life station.
