In this episode, Jill Beytin and Julia Joubert go clubbing! Well, almost. Berghain is the most prolific club in Berlin and one of the most famous techno clubs in the world. Bringing ravers and techno-lovers to its doors (but not always through) since 2004, they wanted to explore just what it is that makes this space so incredibly special.

Jill and Julia are joined by ex-Berghain bouncer, Kristin, who shares her knowledge and her joy for the club. From a virtual tour of the space and sharing what it’s like working there, to the music, the sex and keeping the community safe, Kristin gives us insight into the beautiful underground world of the world’s best party.
