Today is the Leap Day of the Leap Year, where once every four years we get a precious extra 24 hours in February. In honor of Leap Day, what is a "leap," a goal, or a positive change you've always dreamed about doing in your life but never have gotten around to? Today could be the day to take the leap! Chris Duffy, comedian and host of the podcast, How To Be A Better Human, joins to brainstorm how to take leaps of faith and risk in life. (And as we begin our winter pledge drive, maybe your leap can be donating to your favorite station, WNYC!)

In the new podcast, The Recipe with Kenji and Deb, cookbook authors and home cooks J. Kenji López-Alt and Deb Perelman will discuss all things food, home cooking, and perfecting recipes. They join us to discuss their new show and take calls from listeners.

The Foundation for Bolivian Artists supports Bolivian classical musicians by covering the costs of debut concerts in New York City. On March 1, the pianist Sergio Escalera Soria will perform at the Kaufman Music Center as part of these efforts. He joins us to preview the concert with a live in-studio performance, and is joined by foundation founder Walter Aparicio to discuss the group's work.

In 2019, author Sloane Crosley lost her best friend Russell to suicide. They had a complex and beautiful relationship as friends and former colleagues. Crosley joins us to discuss her new memoir about coping with the loss, Grief Is for People.
