I've never heard that caffeine prevents the clearing of adenosine receptors, a quick google didn't show anything with that side affect, do you have a particular citation? I'd definitely change coffee consumption habits if that is the case.

Sources should be in the show notes of the corresponding podcast episodes.
Anecdotally: I can tell the difference.
If it's not a peer-reviewed published research (actually, multiple) it's not credible.
It doesn't mean it's wrong, but presenting it as a fact like the OP did is wrong and potentially extremely harmful.
Nah, c'mon, Most of us are unqualified to synthesize the dozens (if not hundreds) of sources it takes to be an expert in a field. Saying podcasts and reddit is the same as no source is like saying "People are no source" -- it entirely depends on the person.

That's a decently trustworthy source to trust for physiological information.
I mean, do you force your GP to provide sources and then go read them before you take their advice? Even if you do, it's not advisable for the majority of people.
It's akin sayin "he's developer for 10 years, clearly nothing he said about software is wrong", which would get you laughed out of the room

> So if you drink caffeine in the first ~90minutes of waking then you dont actually clear the adenosine as well, and then when the caffeine hits it's half life (about 6 hours later) you'll feel tired again. Solution: let your body clear adenosine naturally before you consume caffeine.
That is a very specific claim. Your cite is about caffeine antagonizing adenosine receptors, but what the comment above is talking about is that caffeine slows your body from clearing adenosine in your blood which is very different.
I'd like to read a cite about the above quoted claim. Simplying googling "adenosine and caffeine" doesn't immediately support it, because again "antagonizing adenosine receptors" and "dont actually clear the adenosine as well" aren't remotely the same claim.
