[door creak] Voice: Hey boys, if you can hear me up there,

it's daylight savings tomorrow so set your clocks back. I love you. [door closes]

Corey: Oh, I just remembered. Tomorrow is Daylight Savings, so don't forget to change your clocks tonight.

Brian: *sigh* It's weird that that's still a thing that we do.

Joey: Yeah, but the reason behind it is pretty interesting.

C: Yeah, it's... it's actually for the farmers.

They need a lot more daylight, because after they harvest all their crops in the morning, [cheerful background music]

they're all dewy and wet and they can't take them to market wet. [cheerful background music]

So they need the sun to like, bake them and dry them out before they can go sell them. [cheerful background music]

B: No, no no. So they need the sun to like, bake them and dry them out before they can go sell them. [cheerful background music]

B: It is about farmers, but it's not about crops or dew.

Back in the 1800s, we were an agrarian society. Okay? [Patriotic fife theme]

Sunday was the Lord's day, so we weren't gonna travel on Sundays.

We weren't gonna travel on Wednesdays; that's market day.

So Tuesday was the only day they could travel for Daylight Savings time.

J: No, no, no, you're thinking about voting. So Tuesday was the only day they could travel for Daylight Savings time.

J: No, no, no, you're thinking about voting.

J: N, no, no, you're thinking about voting. B: No.

Daylight savings, guys, is all about your daylight savings account.

J: Like a savings account! Like we have at a bank. We all have one.

Come on guys, spring forward: we deposit an hour.

And those hours accumulate and interest builds in our account, until we can add time before our death.

C: Maybe there just isn't a good reason why we do daylight savings.

B: Are you kidding me Corey?!? J: What?!?

B: Of course there's a reason! This is American History we're talking about! J: You're insane for thinking that!

C: No! No! [Assorted background arguing/fighting as spooky music starts]

Curt: The boys lost more than just an hour that night.

They lost their friends, their careers, their minds.

They spent the next 67 years discussing the reasons behind Daylight Savings.

Especially since we know that the real reason is the government likes to freeze time,

fly in tiny little drones to our bedrooms and take nude-y pics of us.

So whether you're springing forward or falling backwards, be sure to set your clocks twice a year for Daylight Savings.

J: That was pretty good! B:That was fine man thanks. C: That was fine, yeah.

You know I'm down to do this, whenever, if you're free for another sketch you wanna ask me...

J: Yeah maybe! Who knows? We'll let you know. Ok we'll text you.

It's been like awhile since we've done this.

B: Well we're definitely gonna... well, ya know, we might release it-
