Whanganui's traffic has been a real talking point recently.

Hey everyone, welcome to this week's edition of the Whanganui Chronicle's weekly podcast.

It's a wrap of some of our biggest and favourite news stories with a bit of insight into the Chronicle newsroom and what goes into producing your local news.

News director Zaryd Wilson and reporter Abe Leach host the show this week and are joined by sports editor Jared Smith as the special guest.

We discuss our story on Whanganui's increasing traffic congestion, the YMCA merger, the phasing out of cheques, Whanganui All Black Doug Wilson who died this month, Whanganui's shocking pokies spend and why the council have moved to randomised voting papers.

Also, can you give home baking to hospital staff?
