Massachusetts-based Titan Casket's viral ad argues for an end to changing the clocks back and forth every year

For a casket company, loss is part of the business. But losing an hour of sleep, like many will this weekend, creates an undying anger.

Titan Casket, based in Methuen, Massachusetts, is doing something about it. In a now-viral ad, the company is pushing people to join the fight to end daylight saving time.It goes through some of the reported health issues associated with the time change."We are pinching ourselves every day. This ad is just amazing," said Titan cofounder Scott Ginsberg."I think it is awesome."

Titan worked with Hollywood heavyweight Maximum Effort, the production started by actor Ryan Reynolds. It even created a website, that in character, calls on people to bury DST. "We think it is incredibly funny, and it talks about our national nuisance of daylight saving time, but also sheds light on the company and what we stand for," Joshua Siegel, another cofounder of Titan, said Friday.This isn't Titan's first brush with the limelight. Back in October of 2022, Titan woke up to the news one of its caskets was in Taylor Swift's Anti-Hero music video.

"We went viral, and millions of families went viral through the golden touch of Taylor Swift," Siegel said."We had a big vision for the company, but I don't think we dreamed this big.""Part of our mission is to normalize conversations around death and dying, and so we are comfortable being bold in our marketing and using humor as a way to turn heads," Siegel said.
