    #5 - What's Happening here? - Putin's War in Europe

    What a week! There's another war in Europe. War in the 21st century! Should we update all our news apps around the clock and follow the Klitschkos' Instagram stories, or just put our smartphones away?

    #6 - Porn on the Internet

    S4:E6

    Paying for things online? Never! Especially not for pornography, which is accessible 24/7. And the age restriction is even easier to bypass than the Sanifair turnstile. So, all good, right?

    #7 - Direction of Frustration: Deutsche Bahn

    S4:E7

    Honestly, our relationship with Deutsche Bahn is a case of couples therapy. They keep standing us up and making us wait, but in the end, we still find ourselves standing hopefully on one of their tracks. And they take our money, too.

    S4:E8

    Music, dance, life, passion – nowhere are these powerful concepts more united than in pop music. And pop shows are always on TV! Brilliantly produced events with special effects, stars, and all of it packed into a compact 180 minutes.

    #10 - Look like you're on Instagram

    S4:E10

    If you click through the timelines and hashtags, you'll quickly find yourself talking about cosmetic surgeries from fitness influencers. And these surgical procedures are advertised there just as casually as the latest running shoes from the human fountain of youth, Kai Pflaume.

    #11 - Clemens Tönnies – Born to Slaughter

    S4:E11

    Clemens Tönnies has them all: the mini wiener chain, the grill torch, and the crispy ham – all the delicious meat products made from ground cartilage, hooves, and bacon that we love so much on the grill. What's going on behind the butchered pigs of the slaughterhouse empire?

    #12 - Putin's Puppets in Germany

    S4:E12

    We were all deceived by Vladimir Putin—and above all, DISAPPOINTED. But at least we're now on the right side in a war. All of Germany is against Putin. Except for a few who spread Putin's propaganda here, too.

    #14 - What Germany thinks about Opinion Research

    S4:E14

    "That's a lot of opinion for so little knowledge." This sentence is often heard in editorial conferences and got us thinking. Who's constantly calling the landline, and what does the Sunday question have to do with Germans' sex lives?

    S4:E15

    We love vacations. Whether it's winter or summer break, we're basically always on some beach with cocktails and diving lessons included. We especially enjoy traveling with TUI. Let the ozone hole be the ozone hole for a while and chill out.

    S4:E16

    Who is actually responsible for prosecuting hate speech online? Each of the 16 federal states is responsible for its own actions – what could possibly go wrong? The Internet police patrol car urgently needs to be inspected.
