No question too big, no question too small. On Search Engine, host PJ Vogt answers the kinds of questions you might ask the internet when you can’t sleep. If you find the world bewildering, but also sometimes enjoy being bewildered by it, we’re here for you. Edited by Sruthi Pinnamaneni.
The podcast Search Engine is created by PJ Vogt. The podcast and the artwork on this page are embedded on this page using the public podcast feed (RSS).
This week we have for you ... not a whodunnit, but a what did I do? A listener tries a substance he doesn’t know much about and not long after, his life begins to change. Afterwards, he wonders — what was that, and why was it so easy to get? Search Engine investigates.

A German techno palace where the line outside can last 8 hours, and the bouncers are merciless in their judgments. The club does not explain how it makes its decisions about who can enter, but one foolish podcaster will try to explain anyway.
