  • Summary

  • This week, we're speaking with radio broadcaster Neal Augenstein. Neal has been a general assignment reporter with the Washington DC radio station WTOP News since 1997 and is also a multimedia journalist and mobile journalism trainer. Because of his unique voice and insightful storytelling, he has been dubbed the “Voice of DC."

    In November of 2022, Neal was diagnosed with Stage 4 lung cancer, which for many can be incurable. But after a robotic-assisted lobectomy and targeted therapy, Neal is now, thankfully, cancer free. Since November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month, we asked if Neal could join us to discuss his cancer journey from diagnosis to treatment. What's unique about his journey is that there's been a wide audience following him on his road to recovery as he's explained every milestone.

    Neal has produced videos in which he interviewed his own care team: the oncologist, the director of thoracic surgery at the hospital where he was treated, and his interventional pulmonologist, who helped translate complex medical jargon into easily-understood messages.

    Connect with Neal by visiting the WTOP website, or by finding him on Instagram, Twitter/X (@AugensteinWTOP), YouTube, or LinkedIn.
