I highly suggest you go back download analysts and part 1 of this fascinating discussion. Don't worry we'll be waiting for you beyond the big screen. The movie kind of fades out in the ending it has a really key scene towards the end that's really painful for the writer whereas wife I don't think it might actually not be his wife it's his girlfriend dies and the captain the Stasi captain tries to stop it. But it's kind of like one of those. The whole thing where you get the taste of like there's nothing that's going to stop any of us. But they do have a scene where the Stazi captain he's been demoted and he's in a basement somewhere and the wall falls and his friend hears it on his radio and he's like oh yeah. The wall falls or something to that effect and he just walks off the job like what was it like. And those remember he says der maur is ofen is often which is like every time I hear that sentence it's just like so I think yeah anybody that grew up in Germany or like the wall is open it's just like those are just one of the most powerful sentences you can say in German like this is like ever like yeah anyway sorry. And I remember it as you know as a piece of history that as a 10 year old or whatever it was like you knew that this was something that was history when it was happening. I think that even if you were if you were something of the eye of an age where you knew that what was going on and honored that this was something that was really big that was happening. What was it like to be right there. What happened. The thing is like I was definitely too young to know exactly what was like fully understand that. But my dad was so excited and my dad is not a history buff. He's a traditional nerd like he's a software engineer. He doesn't care about kings and dates and all that. I got that from my mom but he was so excited. You know I come out of school and he's sitting there you know he's in the street with his weight and they're in his car and he's like honkies seems like Justin Travis you know get in and we jump in the car and we're still in our Fasching costumes are carnival.

It's a German movie and it's German name as Das Leben Der Anderen and we are joined by Travis Dow. Travis is really the podcasting man of all seasons. He is the host of countless podcasts including but not limited to the history of Germany.

I really felt like even watching this movie I was like Travis is the perfect guy for this movie yeah. And this is a movie that gripped me like I. Yeah definitely. Very interesting movie and I grew up in Germany and lived in Prague. And this movie was kind of like you know I and I moved to Prague for the curiosity of like living on the other side you know the life of the others to see what that was like and how the city is changing and all that. And you know what are they doing now. Czech Republic a new country and this type of movie just feeds into my curiosity of you know how it was and I eat it up for sure. Yeah. This movie is was released in 2009 but it's set in the East Germany of the mid 1980s really at the tail end of the Cold War just a few years before the fall of the Berlin Wall and as we usually do we're going to use this movie as a way to get into a deeper conversation about East Germany and the Eastern Bloc countries as well as how countries how these countries progressed after the fall of the Berlin Wall which was a critical element of this movie The Lives of the others. To some production details about the movie the director and writer was Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck. It's a German language film but it is available with English subtitles. It got a really high. Rotten Tomatoes of 93 percent. And I met a critic of 89 percent which I think is the highest of any movie we've done so far.

It was the 2006 winner of the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language film and it won just a pile of German and European awards. On top... See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Greetings, Comrades! Today's episode was made out of schedule, but it was so timely, and so urgent, that I just had to do it. Special thanks to Travis J. Dow, my Dark Myths colleague and friend from the Bohemican podcast (and many others) for inspiration here. It's about radicalism in Russia, about trolls, about how your opinion can easily be swayed and what you should watch out for. I mean, they got me! I was outraged about what turned out to be totally fake news last week. So, instead of being angry at people who're literally burning cinemas in Russia because of a movie about Nicholas the 2nd, I got worried about…nonsense. Anyhow, very complex episode, hope that you'll like it, but for the most part – this is supposed to remind everyone that in this modern day, everyone needs to adjust their angry reactions for the likely possibility of trolling.

On a special episode of the Bohemican podcast, we welcome the History of Alchemy podcast listeners with a topic focused on alchemy, a deal with the devil, and alchemical legend spanning nearly 600 years. Johannes Faust was more a myth than a man but his legend helped to inspire alchemical discoveries and create unforgettable ghost stories here in Prague well after his supposed death. A modern day archaeological find in Germany may give proof that this man really did exist. Tonight we present the legend of Faust and the Devil. Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.

The Vojna Prison was one of the largest forced labor camps in 1950's Czechoslovakia. The newly entrenched communist government began the work of imprisoning thousands of Czech citizens on the grounds of treason against the state. Anyone deemed a threat to the new order was sentenced to years of forced labor in the uranium mines of Vojna, just south of Prague.
