Summary

This week Greg talks about the time he tried to quit caffeine and the AsapSCIENCE office nearly shut down entirely. Mitch remembers when he was duped into drinking decaf coffee and we then break down the science behind the placebo effect.

They then debate whether or not the benefits of caffeine outweigh the horrible withdrawal symptoms that come with quitting.
