NaPodPoMo Day 24: Spring Forward, Fall Back, and Maybe Calm Down

from Outrage Science Bites · host Outrage Overload

In this episode of Outrage Science Bites, we take a lighthearted look at the outrage associated with daylight saving time (DST). We discuss the history of DST, its benefits and drawbacks, and our collective tendency to get worked up about it. We conclude by encouraging us to embrace the absurdity of the situation and appreciate the relative simplicity of our modern timekeeping system.Resources:* Outrage Overload podcast: outrageoverload.net* Outrage Science Bites podcastCall to Action:* Take a moment to appreciate the relative simplicity of our modern timekeeping system.* Raise a glass to the absurdity of time and our relentless pursuit of its measurement.* Subscribe to the Outrage Overload podcast and the Outrage Science Bites podcast for more thought-provoking content.
