Welcome to the first edition of the Whanganui Chronicle's podcast.

Our plan is to provide a weekly 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.

Different staff members will be on the mic each week and we'll also release bonus episodes from time to time featuring interviews and audio from the field.

Listen below and check out some of the stories discussed in the links further down.
