  • Not an Hour

    Frustrated that this podcast is called "PBS News Hour" and most of the episodes are maybe 4 minutes. I would want a show with the word "Hour" in its name to last at least the better part of an hour.

These are the people that don't know LOVE, who don't understand it's essence, nor it's power. LOVE is not satisfiable. You can never satisfy it, nor can you conquer it.
