A New Time – mdw392

Why do we change times 2 times a year?

My Beagles didn't get the memo...

1
00:00:01,195 --> 00:00:04,005
Good morning, good evening, good
afternoon, whatever the case may be.

2
00:00:04,005 --> 00:00:06,445
This is Mike and this is for

3
00:00:06,805 --> 00:00:10,925
November 5th, 2023. Na Pod Pomo,

4
00:00:11,705 --> 00:00:15,885
and of course it's Mike Dell's
world. How you doing? So, uh, here,

5
00:00:15,885 --> 00:00:18,885
here's a sound that
should, uh, ring a bell.

6
00:00:24,685 --> 00:00:27,365
Actually, that's supposed to be
a clock ticking, but, uh, eh,

7
00:00:27,435 --> 00:00:29,325
doesn't sound so much like that anyway,

8
00:00:30,785 --> 00:00:32,765
as you may or may not, uh,

9
00:00:32,765 --> 00:00:35,325
have experience depending on
where you're at in the world.

10
00:00:35,785 --> 00:00:40,365
But most of us in the US
had to do the time change,

11
00:00:40,785 --> 00:00:42,645
uh, overnight last night.

12
00:00:43,585 --> 00:00:47,965
So there was two o'clock in the
morning twice yesterday, or, well,

13
00:00:47,965 --> 00:00:51,485
maybe it was one o'clock,
I don't know. But, uh, it,

14
00:00:51,555 --> 00:00:56,445
it's kind of funny that most of
the clocks that I look at on a

15
00:00:56,445 --> 00:01:00,605
regular basis auto change, my computers,

16
00:01:00,865 --> 00:01:05,805
the tablet, the phone,
my watch, television,

17
00:01:06,345 --> 00:01:09,365
uh, you know, just most of
the clocks. But, you know,

18
00:01:09,365 --> 00:01:12,885
there's some that are still analog
or not analog, but disconnected,

19
00:01:13,185 --> 00:01:18,085
not paying any attention. I have,
I don't know, three alarm clocks,

20
00:01:18,345 --> 00:01:22,765
uh, around the house. We use 'em just
for clocks, you know, not for the alarm,

21
00:01:22,865 --> 00:01:25,765
but 'cause they're nice big
displays and you can see 'em.

22
00:01:26,305 --> 00:01:27,925
All three of those I had to change.

23
00:01:29,005 --> 00:01:32,205
I had to change the microwave, the oven.

24
00:01:34,075 --> 00:01:37,685
Both vehicles are all three
vehicles, but I haven't,

25
00:01:38,105 --> 00:01:41,805
one of 'em is in storage
anyway, so that didn't count.

26
00:01:42,345 --> 00:01:46,245
And I'm looking at right now,
my weather station still, uh,

27
00:01:46,815 --> 00:01:48,685
still says the, the wrong time.

28
00:01:48,985 --> 00:01:52,485
And I have another wall clock here in
the office that I didn't change yet.

29
00:01:52,705 --> 00:01:55,605
But otherwise everything else changed.

30
00:01:55,675 --> 00:02:00,045
Even I have an older watch
that uses the national

31
00:02:01,605 --> 00:02:06,405
whatever, uh, the atomic
clock thing and had to,

32
00:02:06,525 --> 00:02:09,645
I, I didn't have to change
that one. So, pretty cool.

33
00:02:11,445 --> 00:02:13,965
Whatever happened to the
proposal they had to,

34
00:02:14,105 --> 00:02:18,925
to go to daylight savings
time all year round and

35
00:02:18,925 --> 00:02:23,805
not do any of these time
changes anymore. And I dunno,

36
00:02:23,805 --> 00:02:25,165
it seems to come up every time,

37
00:02:25,185 --> 00:02:28,805
but I had heard that there was something
already in the works for that. But, uh,

38
00:02:29,125 --> 00:02:33,045
I haven't dug into it, but I don't know,

39
00:02:33,165 --> 00:02:35,125
I guess I don't mind too much. The only,

40
00:02:35,275 --> 00:02:39,565
only drawback we have is we've got a
couple of beagles that don't pay attention

41
00:02:39,585 --> 00:02:44,325
to the time and they think it's time
to eat when really it's an hour later,

42
00:02:44,745 --> 00:02:46,205
not so bad in the springtime.

43
00:02:47,565 --> 00:02:51,365
'cause the direction of the
clock actually, that they, oh,

44
00:02:51,365 --> 00:02:54,405
we're getting fed early until
they get used to it. But, uh,

45
00:02:54,585 --> 00:02:58,805
now they're waking me up at six
30 to eat when it's normally

46
00:02:58,805 --> 00:03:01,645
7 30, 8 o'clock before
they get to eat. Oh,

47
00:03:01,645 --> 00:03:05,365
well enough of that. Uh, we will, uh,

48
00:03:05,505 --> 00:03:08,645
trudge on to tomorrow's episode tomorrow.

49
00:03:09,375 --> 00:03:13,635
Catch me later. I.
