Here, ASAP talks about common tropes, urban myths, or just plain zombie-information that keeps resurfacing about the complicated majesty inside your noggin.
You could probably find each part of their list somewhere on Snopes, to be sure.
They talk about how much & what type of damage drugs and alcohol do to your brain, how much of it you use, the Right-Brain/Left-Brain Creative Vs. Logical meme, and a few others.
Would have been nice if they got into just a little more detail on what the Actual stuff going on really is, instead of just quick debunks, but I guess that’s what HT is for!
-Still Fun and worth watching.
