In this episode, I address the terrible plan to switch the U.S. to permanent Daylight Saving Time. I start out our journey by covering how humanity laid out the whole system of time that we use today, piece by piece over the span of several centuries. Then I get into why the heck anyone wanted to get a law passed to change the clocks in the first place. I take you through all the crazy shenanigans of clock-changing throughout the 20th century. And then I give you all the latest dirt about how the heck the U.S. Senate "unanimously" passed permanent DST when you'd think someone there would've had enough sense to object.
Then I get into a whole bunch of different reasons why permanent DST is so bad, and why having DST at all really isn't that great. (I'm sure you'll find at least one in there that really hits home for you.) And I wrap up with some steps we should definitely push our lawmakers to take... and some that should, at least, be considered.
Lest this sound like it must be longer than your standard book on tape, worry not-- you're in and out in just over 21 minutes. And it gets more and more fun and entertaining as you go.
