About WZRD The Wizard 88.3
WZRD 88.3 FM, The Wizard, is the freeform station of Northeastern Illinois University in Chicago, operated by volunteers who champion adventurous, noncommercial radio. Programs move freely across genres—punk, jazz, noise, folk, hip‑hop, experimental electronics—and fold in interviews, poetry, and arts features. That freedom creates space for emerging artists and deep catalog moments that rarely surface elsewhere on the dial, while seasoned hosts provide context that turns curiosity into discovery.
Rooted in do‑it‑yourself culture, WZRD maintains an open, community‑minded spirit, sharing airtime with local organizers, musicians, and independent labels. Live sessions and event calendars help connect listeners to underground venues and campus happenings, while rotating hosts bring distinct perspectives to every slot. The result is a station that prizes curiosity, risk‑taking, and the unexpected, inviting listeners to explore beyond the familiar and find new favorites with each visit to 88.3 FM and its stream.
