Show Notes
Clocks spring forward this Sunday, marking the start of daylight saving time, but this shift disrupts sleep and routines, sparking frustration. Despite widespread dislike, efforts to scrap the system stall due to divided views. Permanent daylight saving time could mean early winter sunrises, while standard time could bring dark mornings. Health experts warn of risks like crashes and heart attacks. Nineteen states have passed laws for permanent daylight saving time, but federal approval is needed. Ideas like a thirty-minute shift are floated for compromise, but experts favor ending changes altogether with standard time. Until then, sleeping in an extra hour Monday could boost safety.
