The Daily
With so much news going on, it can be hard to keep up and figure out what is real and what is not. The Daily is the New York Times’ daily podcast hosted by journalist Michael Barbaro.

Home Cooking
Samin Nosrat, chef and author of Salt Fat Acid Heat, and Hrishikesh Hirway are making cooking at home during quarantine easier for us that may not really know our way around a kitchen. They allow listeners to record a voice memo and send it to their email, to then answer the question on their podcast.
I had so much fun with @CiaoSamin making the first episode of our new podcast miniseries, HOME COOKING, taking your questions on what to make during quarantine. My pal @JoshMalina joined us, as well, so the circle is complete. It’s out now! https://t.co/SDVq7C6NqB pic.twitter.com/SZ504Cm4gL
