Back to EpisodesThe Dark History of Alarm Clocks (A Dash of Info)
Description
From gentle sunrise awakenings to jarring digital beeps, the alarm clock has quietly shaped how—and when—we live our lives. In this episode, we trace its surprising evolution from human “knocker-uppers” and factory whistles to the smartphones beside our beds today. Along the way, we uncover how this simple device became a symbol of discipline, control, and the demands of modern life. Because that sound waking you up each morning? It’s not just an alarm—it’s centuries of history calling.
