Our podcast is the perfect tool for you. Studies show that the key to mastering a second language is through repetition and active processing. That's why each episode of our podcast features a story in Czech, followed by a sentence-by-sentence retelling that alternates between Czech and English. This approach not only allows you to fully understand and absorb the vocabulary and grammar but also provides a bilingual support to aid your listening comprehension. But we don't stop there. Research in sociolinguistics highlights the importance of culture in language learning, which is why we provide a list of vocabulary words and a transcript of the audio to help you understand the cultural context of the story.

Our podcast is not just for language learners, it's also for travelers or people who wants to connect with their roots. Are you planning a trip to Prague, Český Krumlov, or Karlovy Vary? Maybe you want to speak Czech with your grandparents from Brno?

En: The sun shone bright over Brno and Špilberk Castle prided itself on its majesty. Cs: Davy lidí procházely kolem stánků, které nabízely medové koláče a ukázky starých řemesel. En: Crowds of people walked past stalls offering honey cakes and demonstrations of old crafts. Cs: Vojtěch kráčel po hradu s kamarádem Jakubem, který ho k historické akci přitáhl. En: Vojtěch walked around the castle with his friend Jakub, who had drawn him to the historical event. Cs: „Bude to zábava,“ trval Jakub na svém, když přemlouval Vojtěcha, aby se k němu přidal. En: \"It will be fun,\" Jakub insisted when persuading Vojtěch to join him. Cs: Vojtěch sice miloval historii, ale nebyl si jistý, zda se mu bude líbit ztvárnění středověku tímto způsobem. En: Vojtěch did love history, but wasn't sure if he'd enjoy this portrayal of the Middle Ages. Cs: Přál si ale něco nového zažít a nakonec se nechal přesvědčit. En: He wanted to experience something new and eventually let himself be persuaded. Cs: Jakub zmizel v davu a Vojtěch se zastavil u stánku s ukázkou zbroje.
