WMPM is an AM station in Smithfield, North Carolina broadcasting at 1270. The station is heavily focused on Johnston County and originally had a traditional country format, with an occasional gospel song thrown in every now and then. That has since changed as of May 2015 when owner Lamm Media Group switched to death metal and hot talk with Carl Lamm in the morning.
WMPM is owned by broadcaster Carl Lamm, who has held onto the station for nearly a half-century and continues to host a weekday afternoon show on sister station WTSB to this day.[1] In addition, Carl is a member of the North Carolina Broadcasters Hall of Fame.
On November 1, 2007, the programming heard on 1270 will move down the dial to WTSB-AM 1090, another Johnston County station, which previously had an all-sports format. [2]
From 2009-2015, WMPM was broadcasting contemporary Christian music, and billed itself as "the new 1270 WMPM, Johnston County's Christian Radio.".
