DMC Weekly Edition
DMC Weekly Edition is the audio edition of the Double Mountain Chronicle, created for Paid subscribers who want to listen to the week’s articles, local updates, community stories, columns, and editorials wherever they are.
Formerly home to The ShortCut, our quick weekly news podcast, this feed is becoming a broader audio home for Premium Chronicle content. The ShortCut will still appear from time to time with fast, need-to-know local updates, but DMC Weekly Edition will now carry the weekly paper in audio form.
Listeners will also find special features, including local Veterans stories and upcoming content like Grounds for Discussion as time allows.
Local news. Real stories. Straight from the pages of the Double Mountain Chronicle.

Plus, with a critical bond election deadline approaching, we’ll break down the latest discussions from Rotan ISD’s town hall and what’s next for the district.
And in this week’s editorial, Editor Jeff Hurt takes a deep dive into Governor Abbott’s latest remarks and the impact of Texas’ economic policies on rural communities. Are we witnessing real prosperity, or just another game of political shell tricks?
