Leonard Lopate and Sarah Jessica Parker
Ruth Reichl, editor-in-chief of Gourmet magazine, joins us along with special guests Chef Daniel Boulud and Dr. Marcia Pelchat from the Monell Chemical Senses Center in Philadelphia, for a special on-air “smell” test or jelly beans, coffee, and cheese. They’ll be exploring the relationship between smell and taste, in order to find out what the nose can tell us about the flavors of food. Then, food writer Ed Levine extols the virtues and variety of pizza in America—from New York, to Chicago, to Arizona. Next, Jonathan Wilson focuses on the theme of men in trouble with his short story collection, An Ambulance is On the Way. Finally, we continue our celebration of Leonard's 20th Anniversary at WNYC. Each day this week, Leonard interviews one of his favorite guests. Today, Sarah Jessica Parker reflects on her accomplishments so far, and looks ahead to her plans for the future.
