In the June 28, 2023 episode of the Ad Nerds Podcast, Spanky Moskowitz, a veteran of the advertising industry, took a different route from the usual ad industry news. Instead, he chose to use the platform for a personal public service announcement. Recently diagnosed with lower colorectal cancer, he discusses his experiences with the medical world, his impending treatment journey, and how he expects to be stepping away from the podcast for a few months. He emphasized the importance of routine colorectal screenings, expressing gratitude for his own proactive approach, which allowed for an early diagnosis. As an asymptomatic patient, Spanky underscores the crucial role these screenings play in the detection of such health issues. With a palpable air of optimism, Spanky encourages listeners to prioritize health check-ups and not fear these procedures.
