About this listen
We live by time, but rarely stop to examine it.
In this episode, Carl explores and shares how human beings came to measure, organise, and structure life around time—from early sun tracking and seasonal rhythms to the invention of clocks, calendars, and modern schedules.
Part 1 covers the origins of timekeeping: how different cultures made sense of the passing day, how time became standardised, and how tools like clocks and wristwatches shaped modern work and daily routine.
Part 2 looks at our emotional and psychological experience of time—why it feels fast or slow, how it’s affected by culture and technology, and what it means to live more intentionally with time rather than constantly manage it.
This episode offers a clear look at how time went from a natural rhythm to a structured system—and how it continues to shape nearly every part of modern life.
