We changed clocks - again! The whole thing is so dumb and yet we need an act of congress to make a change to the status quo....and they are much too busy doing nothing (and fighting among themselves) to be worried about such things.

Here’s my first one: stock options that I never got!
In the show I say that Devo maybe was “punk” which they clearly were not. But they embodied the essence of punk - anti establishment ideals. I think a better name is “new age”
I’m talking about the separation of church and state and the founding fathers. And of course remind you that we are not a Christian nation.

Surveys

On this podcast, I talk about surveys and their results. What makes a good survey? What do results mean? In a day where many hot topics are driven by survey results, it’s important to understand what you’re seeing and understand what it means.

Back in 1987 (yes 35 years ago!) Sagan gave a talk to the ACLU about the science, civil liberties, and democracy. The source is this: https://quillette.com/2022/07/01/science-and-civil-liberties-the-lost-lecture-of-carl-sagan/amp/
