Deported from the U.S.: Czech rock star and clarinetist learn tough lesson on work visas, From Iggy Pop to talks on AI: Colours of Ostrava 2025 kicks off rich lineup of acts, Lemurs from Madagascar, strange snakes, and extinct fish at Pilsen Zoo
Jeszcze kilka lat temu Czechy uchodziły za demograficzny wzór. W zaledwie dekadę państwo to stanęło przed podobnymi problemami jak Słowacja i reszta Europy - niski współczynnik przyrostu naturalnego. W Czechach i Słowacji rodzi się za mało dzieci. Specjaliści alarmują, że naród czeski może zniknąć. O tym, jak wygląda sytuacja w Czechach i Słowacji, mówi Krzysztof Dębiec, ekspert Ośrodka Studiów Wschodnich.

There is a span of nearly six decades between the first and last of the compositions on this album of piano music by Czech composer Alois Hába, with works written during various creative periods and with differing intentions. As a whole, they document both the development of the composer's musical thinking and goals and the diversity of approach to composing for the piano in the 20th century.
Przerwa obiadowa, podczas której kraj staje i trudno cokolwiek załatwić. Dziurawe chodniki i stacje metra, z których ciężko wydostać się z wózkiem. Porażająca normalizacja spożywania alkoholu i sprzedawcy, dla których klient na pewno nie jest panem. To wszystko są rzeczy, których podczas krótkich, turystycznych wypadów do Czech zwykle nie widać. Mimo to, w ogólnym rozrachunku, Czechy to kraj, w którym po prostu, na co dzień, dobrze się żyje.O ciemnych i jasnych stronach życia nad Wełtawą i oczywiście o ogólnym rozrachunku, rozmawiam z Wojciechem Stobbą, korespondentem Polskiego Radia w Pradze. Poza wymienionymi wyżej kwestiami wyjaśniamy chociażby, jak różni się polskie i czeskie podejście do wychowywania dzieci i na czym w praktyce polega czeski egalitaryzm. I jakie są praskie blokowiska. Odsłaniamy też trochę kulisy dziennikarskiej kuchni, zwracając uwagę na liczne w tej materii różnice między Polską a Czechami.Rozmowę zaś prowadzimy siedząc pod lipami w hospodzie na jednym ze zwykłych, praskich blokowisk. W jej trakcie słychać więc nie tylko innych odwiedzających to miejsce, ale też ich kłócące się psy czy latającego szerszenia. Nie słychać za to bijących się sierpówek - te wyciąłem w montażu :D***Jeśli podcast Wam się podoba i chcecie pomóc go rozwijać, możecie zostać Patronami lub Patronkami Czechostacji w serwisie Patronite.

Lord Alf Dubs is a Labour peer and former MP. He came to the UK from Prague in 1939 on one of the Kindertransport trains organised by Sir Nicholas Winton which rescued mostly Jewish children from Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia.Alf was born in Prague in 1932. His father was from a Jewish background and was brought up in what was then Northern Bohemia while his mother came from Austria. His father left Prague for London as soon as the Nazis invaded Czechoslovakia in March 1939. In June, when he was six-years-old, Alf was put on a Kindertransport train, arriving at Liverpool Street station two days later where he was met by his father. His mother eventually joined them in London the day before war broke out. Alf studied Politics and Economics at the London School of Economics and was elected as the Member of Parliament for Battersea South in May 1979. He lost his seat in 1987 and the following year he was appointed director of the Refugee Council, becoming the first refugee to head up the charity.In March 2016 Alf tabled an amendment to the 2016 Immigration Act (known as the Dubs Amendment) which asked the Government to accept 3,000 unaccompanied refugee children into the UK. The amendment passed but the Government closed the scheme the following year after accepting 480 children.In 2016 Alf received the Humanist of the Year award by Humanists UK of which he is also a patron. In 2021 his Czech citizenship was restored making him the first Czech-British member of the House of Lords.DISC ONE: It's Easy To Remember (Take 4) - John Coltrane Quartet DISC TWO: Smetana: Má Vlast, JB1:112: 2.

Hey Czech learner!
Our guests today are The Swell Season, the beloved folk duo of Irish singer-songwriter Glen Hansard and Czech pianist and singer Markéta Irglová. Since forming in 2005, they've captured hearts around the world with their emotive songwriting and cinematic storytelling, soaring to fame through the 2007 film Once, which earned them an Academy Award for “Falling Slowly” and inspired a Tony-winning Broadway musical. After releasing their second album Strict Joyin 2009, Glen and Markéta pursued solo paths, leaving The Swell Season on pause. But this year, they're reuniting with Forward—their first album together in over 16 years—which is out today. It's a record that balances evolution and nostalgia, brimming with the raw honesty and beautiful melodies fans fell in love with from the start. In today's episode, we're thrilled to welcome both Glen and Markéta to talk about Forward, how the passage of time brought them back to making music together, recording the album in Iceland, and the almost communal living arrangements they shared with their families. We also chat about the lasting legacy of Once and what it feels like to return to the stage with new music.The Swell Season: Instagram / Spotify Glen Hansard: Instagram | Markéta Irglová: InstagramFind tour dates and more information about The Swell Season hereVisit our official website here and follow us across our socials.
The Fates of Classical Antiquity not only survived in the form of related fairy-tale figures but also as the object of superstitions and rituals associated with newborns. In South Slavic and Balkan regions particularly, these customs represent a surprisingly long-lived and genuine case of pagan survival. We begin our episode examining the fairy godmothers of "Sleeping Beauty" as embodiments of the Fates. Mrs. Karswell reads a few key passages from the definitive version of the story included in Charles Perrault's 1697 collection, Histoires ou contes du temps passé ("stories of times gone by.") We learn how the fairies fulfill the historical role of godparents at the newborn's christening. We also note the peculiar emphasis on the quality of what's set before the fairies at the christening banquet, observing how a failure there leads the wicked fairy to curse the Sleeping Beauty. 1874 illustration by František Doucha for a Czech edition of Sleeping Beauty We then explore antecedents to Perrault's tale, beginning with the 14th-century French chivalric romance, Perceforest. A peripheral story in this 8-volume work is that of Troylus and Zeelandine, in which the role of Sleeping Beauty's fairy godmothers are played by Greek and Roman deities, with Venus as supporter of Princess Zeelandine (and her suitor Troylus) and Themis cursing Zeelandine to sleep in a manner similar to Perrault's princess. A failure to correctly lay out Themis' required items at the christening banquet is again again responsible for the curse, though the awakening of Zeelandine by Troylus awakens is surprisingly different and a notorious example of medieval bawdiness. Preceding Perceforest, there was the late 13th-century French historical romance Huon of Bordeaux, in which we hear of the newborn fairy king Oberon being both cursed and blessed by fairies attending his birth. From around the same time, French poet and composer Adam de la Halle's Play of the Bower describes a banquet at which fairy guests pronounce a curses and blessings on those in attendance prompted again by their pleasure or displeasure at what's set before them at a banquet. We also hear of the Danish King King Fridlevus (Fridlef II) bringing his newborn son to a temple of "three maidens" to ascertain the destiny pf the child in Gesta Danorum ("Deeds of the Danes").written around 1200 by Saxo Grammaticus. And lest listeners think such appeals to the Fates were strictly a literary motif, we hear Burchard of Worms, in his early-11th-century Decretum, condemning the not uncommon among the Germans of his region of setting up offering tables for the Fates. By this point, the connection between how fairy godmother types are served at a banquet and offerings made to the Fates to ensure a cild's fortune should be clear. We then turn back to the Greek Fates, the Moirai (Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos) and the Roman Parcae (Nona, Decuma, and Morta). Particularly in the case of the Parcae, we hear examples of their connection to the newborn's destiny in the celebration nine or ten days after the birth of the dies lustricus, during which offerings were made to the Fates. The Three Fates by Bernardo Strozzi, late 17th c We make a brief side-trip to discuss the Norns (Urðr, Verðandi and Skuld), the Germanic equivalent of the Fates. These are more distant cousins, not strongly associated with the newborn and his destiny, though we do hear a passage from the Poetic Edda, in which the Norns are present birth of the hero Helgi. We also hear a gruesome passage from the 13th-century Njáls Saga, in which the Valkyries weave out the fate of those who will die in the Battle of Clontarf. The Anglo-Saxon equivalent of the Fates, the Wyrds, are also discussed, and we hear how the witches in Macbeth partook in this identity as the "Weird Sisters," an association Shakespeare inherited from his source material, the 1587 history of Great Britain, known as Holinshed's Chronicles.

Ondřej Provazník is the writer-director of Broken Voices, a new Czech drama that is in the main competition at the ongoing Karlovy Vary International Film Festival . The powerful picture follows a 13-year-old girl as she comes under the sway of the conductor of her choir and is inspired by a scandal centred on the head of a Prague girls' choir, who was jailed on multiple sexual abuse charges. I spoke to Provazník ahead of the world premiere of the film, whose Czech title Sbormistr translates literally as The Choirmaster.
Jeremy and Svatia Mueller are Global Partners serving in the Czech Republic. As a young adult, Jeremy went on several short-term trips to Czech, and it was there that he met Svatia, who is a native. After marrying and feeling drawn to missions, they now live in the Czech Republic, where Jeremy works with university students, and Svatia seeks to be a light for the gospel through her everyday relationships. The Muellers' goal is to be a testimony to the grace of Jesus no matter where He puts them, and their perspective is encouraging to us all, whether we're called overseas, to another part of the U.S., or to live out our faith within our hometown.

Tim's back after a battle with Covid that took him out had for two days and took his sense of smell for a week. Rough.We re-hash the NA story from last week about it being not-so-healthy. We didn't think it was, but maybe some folks thought the absence of alcohol made it a health drink. I think it's just more bad press from the haters.In our Style Profile series Nate breaks down the Italian Pilsner for us and we turn to ChatGPT to get the exact scoop in the difference between German, Czech, and Italian Pilsners.We discuss our drinking habits across the seasons and whether not they change. Although we all said not really I think it changes up a bit just due to the availability of beers.

A conversation with Czech Cider Fan Dan Samek This episode brings us to the heart of Europe by way of Vermont. Ria sat down with Dan Samek, a cider enthusiast and home distiller from Prague, to talk about the evolving cider scene in the Czech Republic. They met at Kilowatt Park which is on the west side of the Connecticut River in White River Junction, Vermont. Dan Samek This was the first stop on the Cider Tour to Vermont and New York in May 2025. In this Cider Chat featuring Czech Cider 1. A Fruitful History The Czech Republic is rich with apples, pears, plums, and cherries and exports a lot of fruit. For centuries, fruit trees lined roads to feed traveling soldiers. This is a legacy left from the Barak times, in the 18th century 2. Cider by Way of Calvados Dan journey to cider started while he was working at a French winery He has an affection for Calvados and thus made cider to distill. His process blends natural fermentation and dry yeast (He favors the yeast known as 72B). The apples come from old trees in his one-acre garden-orchard near Prague. 3. Small Scene, Big Potential Early cider makers in the Cech Republic began around 2007. Prague had a cider shop (InCider) and a cider bar, but today you can find cider at most bars. Cidrerie Kliment and Utopia are two standout producers—Utopia leans all natural. 4. Enthusiasts Leading the Way Many Czech homes still have fruit trees. Backyard fermenters use presses ranging from barrel-style to hydraulic. Gardening clubs and university programs help spread knowledge. 5. Beyond Apples Dan grows quince and medlars and has a Sorbus domestica tree in his orchard. Morovia which is to the north of Prague has a Sorubus Domestic museum. There's a growing appreciation for traditional and lesser-known fruits in fermentation.

Max Trescott takes listeners inside the cockpit of the future in episode 390, as he shares his firsthand experience flying the fully electric Bristell B23 Energic trainer and talks with executives from H55, the Swiss company behind its electric propulsion system. This in-depth episode explores the technical, operational, and strategic aspects of electric flight training aircraft. The B23 Energic is a joint project between Czech aircraft manufacturer BRM Aero and H55, the latter founded by the team behind the Solar Impulse aircraft that flew around the world on solar power. Max discusses how H55 is focusing on producing electric propulsion systems—batteries, controllers, and motors—for aircraft manufacturers, rather than building entire aircraft themselves. This modular approach is designed to speed up certification and lower development costs. H55 CEO Martin Larose shares how the company is involved in several projects worldwide, including with CAE to retrofit Piper Archers, Harbour Air to electrify floatplanes, and Pratt & Whitney on a hybrid Dash 8-400. He also explains H55's plan to manufacture battery systems in both Switzerland and Montreal to serve global markets while avoiding costly and complex battery transport logistics. Max's test flight takes place at Palo Alto Airport, where the B23 Energic was on a U.S. tour. He notes the aircraft's similarities to the Piper Sport Cruiser in handling and design, due to a shared designer. The electric version offers about 60 minutes of flight time and a 10-minute reserve, although U.S. FAA rules would require a 30-minute reserve, limiting U.S. endurance to 40 minutes unless additional batteries are added. The aircraft uses NCA lithium-ion batteries and features a liquid-cooled motor and controller, but air-cooled batteries to keep things simple. While the plane's payload is about 73 pounds less than its piston counterpart, it offers dramatically lower operating costs—estimated at $8–9 per hour for electricity versus $50+ per hour in fuel and oil for conventional trainers. The certification process, especially in Europe under EASA, remains H55's biggest challenge, with 90% of company resources dedicated to achieving approval. The motor is built by Equipmake in the UK to H55's design and features dual windings for redundancy—ensuring safe single-failure tolerance. Max also interviews Laurent, the demo pilot, and Céline, a project engineer, learning about how H55 built hundreds of hours of bench testing before the aircraft even flew. Their insights underscore the care and rigorous engineering that go into preparing electric aircraft for real-world flight training environments. In-flight, Max describes the aircraft as well-balanced and intuitive, with a quiet cabin that enhances concentration—an important advantage for student pilots. He praises the center stick control, wide cabin, and visibility. The landing was smooth and predictable, and energy use during the short flight was minimal—about 6 kWh for a pattern and 360 turn. Finally, Max reflects on how quickly the electric nature of the aircraft faded into the background during flight—exactly what H55 wants. The B23 Energic is expected to launch in Europe in 2026 and U.S. in 2027, with a price of $431,000 for early buyers and $500,000 later. It will be certified for Day VFR only, making it a strong candidate for cost-effective flight training.

A new study coauthored by Dr. Vibeke Manniche shows birth rates plummeted in 2022. The Czech study reveals women vaccinated for COVID-19 had significantly lower conception rates than unvaccinated women from June 2021 to 2023. Using nationwide data from the Institute of Health Information and Statistics, researchers analyzed 1.3 million women aged 18-39. By late 2021, 70% were vaccinated, mostly with Pfizer or Moderna mRNA shots. By 2022, conception rates were 1.5 times higher in unvaccinated women. Dr. Vibeke Manniche, MD, PhD, is a Danish epidemiologist and author of 35 books on health and family. She opposed COVID lockdowns, citing disproportionate measures.
