August 26, 2025 Prague Place Names and Sounding Like a Local
On this episode, I educate non-locals about how Czechs have informal place names that are shortened from the full names of places like Naměstí Miru, which locals call Mirak. So, if you want to sound like a local when talking about places around Prague, this episode is for you.

August 01, 2025 Some practical advice for people relocating to Prague
A listener named Ian asked me for some practical advice and things to consider before moving to Prague. In this episode I talk about the following things which you need to consider before and after you plan and then move to Prague.
Mail and cell phones
Online and phone apps and security
Banking suggestions
Medical/medicine considerations
Finding housing
Driving
Online entertainment and shopping issues
Miscellaneous items: power adaptors/converters and the Czech language.
Please note that I only briefly touch on things like moving your family or pets and visa and work permit related items. The former because I don't have any practical advice since I didn't move my family or any pets and the later because getting "legal" in the Czech Republic will be an entire episode by itself.
