Monday, June 10, 2013 from 5:30 PM - WQED Multimedia
Love Free or Die is about a man whose two defining passions the world cannot reconcile: his love for God and for his partner Mark.

Next Avenue
America is in the midst of an age boom and with it, an amazing transition. In general, those of us over the age of 50 are expected to live longer than any previous generation.
Enter Next Avenue. We're a group of public television people and journalists who, for the most part, are experiencing the very same things you are. Like you, we see both challenges and opportunities and we recognize that what we could all use right about now is an abundance of reliable information that can help us figure out what's, well, next.
So we aim to deliver that—in a way that's both smart and accessible.
