So, in case you're new, I wanted to point you towards some of our favorite episodes from this year so you could work backwards. You might start with our first episode, which is called... Wait, should I not be drinking airplane coffee? It's a good one. Or some other listener favorites. Why are drug dealers putting fentanyl in everything? Should this creepy search engine exist? And who's behind these scammy text messages we've all been getting? Okay, this week's show, after some ads. Search Engine is brought to you by Rowbody. Rowbody. If you've heard of Ozempic or Wegovy, you've probably heard three things. They're effective, but they're expensive, and they're hard to get. That's where Roe comes in.
Through Roe, you can access prescription compounded GLP-1s, the same weight loss ingredient as brand name GLP-1s, at a fraction of the cost. Roe has compounded GLP-1s in stock now. You can get it in one to four days if you qualify. Roe members have support through the process. If eligible for medication, patients have access to their provider on demand for any questions. You can see if you qualify from the comfort of your home. That means no scheduling doctor's appointment, no commute to the doctor's office, and no waiting rooms. If prescribed, your medication ships in one to four days. Go to ro.co slash search engine. Memberships start at just $99 for your first month. Medication costs are separate. That's ro.co slash search engine.
Go to ro.co slash safety for black box warning and full safety information. Compounded medication is not required to and does not receive FDA review or approval. Prescription only. I'm not supposed to pick favorite questions. I claim to love all questions equally. But about a year ago, I got a question from two friends of mine. This question caused a rare amount of delight over at Search Engine HQ. So we asked the two of them to come to the studio. Okay, okay. Do you guys want to introduce yourselves?
I'm Chris. I'm Dan.
Chris and Dan, two very successful, stylish young professionals, they had an annual tradition going back years. These two friends would vacation together, sometimes to exciting nightlife destinations like Berlin, the city they'd just returned from. And what's the nature of these vacations? What is your form of relaxing?
I would say our form of relaxing is generally not relaxing. It's like partying.
Yeah.
Yeah. Okay. But, you know, respectful, healthy, wholesome partying. Yes.
Okay. And so this was your second trip to Berlin to do respectful, of whom I'm not sure.
Wholesome. What was the last thing? Healthy? Respectful, wholesome, and healthy partying. Okay.
So you guys, these are a lot of like daybreaker parties where you drink water and like do yoga afterwards or whatever. Yeah. A lot of green tea. Exactly. That's the vibe. Chris and Dan, I should tell you, more conscientious and buttoned up than most people I know. Chris, who I've known much longer, he's the kind of person where, when I invite him to a party, I can set my watch to what happens. He and his boyfriend show up exactly on time, bearing a thoughtful gift, and then Chris sneaks out the front door two hours later or half an hour before midnight, whichever comes first. not a person given to unplanned improvised fun. So I was actually surprised to learn he'd been drawn to Berlin, a city that tends to attract my more late-night degenerate friends.
So you're going to Berlin, and, like, how many days were you going for? I think it was, like, 72 hours in Berlin.
Yeah, it was a really short trip.
And what was the itinerary?
There was a very unstructured itinerary, which consisted of absolutely nothing. But we knew what the crown jewel of the trip was supposed to be. Yes. Key word, supposed to be. And that was?
Berghain. And why Berghain?
I guess it has this mythical status attached to it, which is no one can get in or very few people can get in. But once you're in, it's like this mystical palace of fun and amazing music and God knows what else because neither of us have ever been inside.
