We live in an Everything Should Take Twenty Minutes world. Movies are too long. SundanceTV has of-the-union-nick-hornby-sundance.html">a show that airs in ten-minute episodes. Tierra Whack has a fifteen-minute album made of fifteen sixty-second songs. Todd Rundgren's memoir has 183 one-page, three-paragraph chapters.

So today, we turn our hour over to five short, little shows about short, little things.
