  • 4 hrs must not be enough.

    I call myself a "PC" listener. Podcasts. I'm on the dreaded day shift (but love the sleep pattern)

    I started listening to the Ben Maller SHOW live just before his '09 vacation and got hooked upon his return. And here I am...5th HR!

    I chase that with a 5Hr Energy.
