The Sleep Stealer: Why DST is an Outdated Relic and Not a Gift to Agriculture Artwork

More Than Corn

Home of Extreme Midwestern Appreciation

Frankly, the narrative is boring--

"Why would anybody live in the Midwest? It's flat, boring, and nothing but cornfields."--a cliche that, in 2021, officially became the catalyst for More Than Corn.

Tired of the same old tune, we've set out to show that the Midwest is not as bad as some people might think. Yes, there's corn (and a ton of other agriculture, too--you're welcome).

Each week we go into, and beyond, the cornfields to bring you conversations from the best parts of the Midwestern "flyover states."

On this week's episode, we expose the absolute fabrication that DST was ever a gift to agriculture, and reveal the real, antiquated origins of this twice-a-year trauma.

Join us as we prove that this 'Sleep Stealer' is nothing more than a weird, jetlag-inducing relic that needs to be permanently retired before it forces us all to start eating dinner at 4:30 PM. Say goodbye to the clock change and hello to... well, a consistent bedtime!
