We all know that one student who takes Adderall before every exam. Pfft... what a flunky, right? Well... are they really all that different from you? We all have our vices, be they: coffee, energy drinks, cannabis, junk food, or otherwise. When used in excess, each of these can have serious health tradeoffs, so does it matter that someone else's vice differs from your own?
In this episode of in[Tuition], Flint and Laila challenge the 'socially accepted' definition of vices. They discuss the trade-offs of popular pick-me-ups like coffee and energy drinks, while encouraging viewers to reconsider their own 'fixes'. In the end, they discover that everyone has a vice, so what's yours?
