Good Morning!
What if we told you America tried getting rid of the time change 50 years ago—and people hated the result?
We all know the twice-a-year ritual. Change the clocks, lose or gain an hour, and complain about it. But there's a surprising reason we're still doing it!
In this week's Flyover Focus, Amy uncovers the strange history of Daylight Saving Time, including a bug collector, two world wars, and a 1974 experiment that didn't go quite as planned.
So what happened when America tried to stop changing the clocks? And why haven't we been able to fix it since?
