Phil and Jake further sculpt the List of Every Damn Thing by ranking Daylight Saving Time, The Three Stooges, and the turn-of-the-century Catalan architect Antoni Gaudi.

SHOW NOTES:
- In our conversation, Jake refers to it as “Daylight Savings Time” but apparently the "s" at the end of “Saving” is wrong (though a pretty common mistake).
- We incorrectly guess that Hawai’i recognizes DST. It doesn’t, and neither does Arizona. Indiana does recognize DST, but it wasn’t implemented statewide until 2006.

- Shemp is the brother of Curly and Moe. Curly is the “hot” Stooge.
- Phil mistakenly refers to the Stooges' short “Disorder in the Court” as “Odor in the Court”.
- Mantan Moreland wasn’t a slapstick guy like The Three Stooges but he could have done it. Here he is at the Apollo with with Nipsey Russell.
- We briefly mention Hattie McDaniel, the first African American to win an Oscar (for her role in Gone With the Wind), but not by name.
- Phil and Jake watched We Want our Mummy in Phil's New York City apartment in the early 2000s.

- The works of Antoni Gaudi we discuss include Casa Batlló, the Sagrada Família and Park Güell.
- The famous New York City “master builder” whose name we can’t remember is city planner Robert Moses.
- We cite Moebius (who drew fantastic cityscapes), H.R. Giger (who created creepy aliens) and Salvador Dalí (who
