Sometimes NPR One will play VPM’s local news highlights automatically, but I can’t rely on it, so this is the first thing I play on my way to work every morning. Grateful for quality local news in an audio format and wish it was longer.
Love the local news

With the loss of more and more local newspapers, I only get national news. Great to have this outlet to know what is going on in Va.
Start my day here.
