Show Notes
Daylight saving time begins this Sunday, extending evenings during warmer months. Originating in World War One, it became uniform in 1966. Despite widespread dislike, polls show support for abolishing it due to health risks like increased heart attacks, strokes, and accidents following the clock change. Studies confirm these risks, linking the spring switch to more fatal accidents and mood dips. A push for year-round daylight saving time is ongoing, but Congress has yet to approve it, with twenty states ready to join if passed. Hawaii, most of Arizona, and some territories already opt out.
