<description>&lt;p&gt;A two-for-one offering from The Fifth: first, the lads discuss the ongoing student stupidities, free speech and protest, Kmele at TED, and how your views are probably pretty normal (ed. note: considering the full-court coverage of the Columbia intifada, it’s sort of surprising that no one is referencing &lt;a target="_blank" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Strawberry_Statement_(film)"&gt;this terrible 1970 film&lt;/a&gt;, written by Ad-Roc’s dad). And then, some bonus content with Reason’s C.J. Ciaramella, who joins to discuss the government war on Adderall, his own ADHD diagnosis, and why it took him &lt;a target="_blank" href="https://reason.com/2024/04/23/it-took-me-months-to-get-the-adhd-meds-the-dea-says-are-overprescribed/"&gt;two months &lt;/a&gt;to get his prescription filled.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;This is a public episode.
