Nicotine: Deadly Killer or Nootropic?

Nicotine is one of the most widely used psychoactive compounds in the world, trailing only behind caffeine.

This week, Casey reviews a recent study investigating the effects of nicotine on cognitive performance and archery. Check it out if you've ever wanted to learn a bit more actual SCIENCE about the compound, rather than listening to TV blitzes and billboards.
