One of the most iconic radio news brands is launching a new podcast that promises to dive deep into the day’s big news stories.
WTOP in Washington D.C. is launching “DMV Download” co-hosted by Edward R. Murrow award-winning journalist Megan Cloherty and Luke Garrett.
According to the station’s website, “DMV Download” will be the only local daily podcast that dives deeper into the biggest news stories impacting Washingtonians – from Anacostia to Ashburn, Silver Spring to Upper Marlboro.
Cloherty has proven to be one of the most versatile reporters in the Washington D.C. market. Her reporting has earned her numerous awards in addition to the Murrow award she garnered in 2018 for work exposing an abusive coach and his subsequent victims.
Garrett is a relative newcomer to WTOP. His podcast “Is It Normal Yet?!” examines how residents are dealing with COVID-19.
“In 20 minutes, we’ll offer listeners context on the day’s biggest stories, going past the headlines with our deep bench of sources and reporters,” said DMV Download host and investigative reporter, Megan Cloherty. “In my mind, if we can wrap up your workday with dependable, interesting content about our community, we’ve done our job.”
