Following his debut as Oscar host, Alec Baldwin will expand his radio repertoire and tackle another debut by taking on Kurt Andersen's duties as host of the Peabody Award-winning "Studio 360," public radio's only weekly national show dedicated to the arts.

Baldwin has invited actress Laura Linney, currently appearing on Broadway in Donald Margulies' drama "Time Stands Still," and poet and memoirist Mary Karr, author of the highly-lauded "Lit: A Memoir" (named one of the "New York Times" Top 10 Books of 2009) to be among his special guests for the hour.

Use the audio player at the top of the page to listen to a sample of Baldwin's conversation with Karr. They trade stories about their favorite priests giving them life-changing advice.

Baldwin is currently best known for his role on NBC's "30 Rock," as lovable GE tycoon Jack Donaghy.
