A New Way to Access the News: Audio Versions of Our Stories Now Available
Published: February 4, 2026.
We’ve launched a new podcast on Spotify, but this isn’t your typical “podcast” with hosts, commentary, or long discussions. Instead, this “podcast” is designed as a convenient audio extension of our news coverage, giving readers and listeners another way to access our reporting when reading an article isn’t practical.
Each episode features audio versions of our written news stories, allowing people to stay informed while driving, commuting, working, traveling, or multitasking. Whether you’re behind the wheel, on a walk, or simply prefer listening over reading, this format makes it easier to keep up with important local and regional news.
The goal is simple: Make our journalism more accessible.
Not everyone has the time or ability to stop and read a full article, especially during busy days. This audio option ensures our reporting reaches people wherever they are—safely and hands-free.
Listeners can find the podcast on Spotify, where you can subscribe for updates and choose to listen to stories as they’re published alongside our written coverage.
As always, our commitment remains the same: accurate, timely, community-focused reporting, now available in both written and audio form!
