Show Notes
Clocks spring forward this Sunday, marking the start of daylight saving time. This annual change disrupts sleep patterns, leaves early walks in the dark, and draws complaints from millions. While many dislike the twice-yearly clock change, opinions split on fixes. Permanent daylight saving time would delay winter sunrises, while year-round standard time means sunup at four eleven a.m. in Seattle during summer. Health workers, dog owners, and sleep experts highlight the risks and strain caused by this change. Lawmakers face hurdles in passing permanent daylight saving or standard time, with federal approval needed. Experts favor permanent standard time for healthier circadian rhythms. Until then, consider sleeping in Monday and pushing for a later start.
