Show Notes

Our calendar and system of keeping time are rather unique. 


It isn’t nice and tidy like the metric system. It is a collection of odd time units, leap years, and rotating calendars. 


As such, many people throughout history have thought that they could do better. 


So they have made proposals for changing our calendar, some of which would be very different from the one we are used to.


Learn more about proposed calendar reforms on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
