Twice a year most Australians are made to deliberately mess with our body clocks. When we go into daylight saving and when we come out.

Many of us love the longer summer evenings. What we don’t love is the sleep adjustment that makes us feel tired, fuzzy and out of sorts.

There are plenty of arguments about whether daylight saving is a good or bad thing.

So in this episode we look at the costs and benefits and whether it’s time to rethink the concept.
