Reissue: DHP Ep. 0198: Fµ©!≤ Daylight Savings! (The DHP vs DST)

by | Mar 11, 2025

Subtitle: “Daylight Savings as a Rebellion Against Nature.”

This is a reissue of DHP episode 198, which was originally published back in early March 2020, only about a week before the covid crap hit the fan.

Join CJ as he discusses:

  • Where the idea of biannual time changes & Daylight Savings Time (DST) came from historically. (Hint: As is often the case, Woodrow Wilson bears some of the blame.)
  • Some of the problems, costs, and even dangers of DST
  • The origin of standardized time zones (which originated more in the private sector) as a contrasting case study
  • The idea of DST as a rebellion against nature
