A city is more than just a location - it's a kaleidoscope of history, places, people and trends. This podcast looks at Prague, in the center of Europe, from a number of perspectives, including what it is now, what is has been and where it's going. It's Prague THEN, Prague NOW, Prague LATER.

THEN - Sibling Rivalry on Steroids (999-1061)
Now things REALLY heat up in Bohemia, with wars, rebellions, blindings, castrations, whole families getting wiped out and lots more fun. You'd think things would calm down after all that, but you'd be wrong. It's Game of Thrones without the dragons!
