For this week’s show, I wanted to play a few rarities related to Michael Jackson, so I reached into the archives for a few very cool things, including one from the “Motown Remixed Vol. 2″ CD, the Miami mix of the Jackson 5’s “Dancing Machine,” which reimagines the Jackson...  

A blooming flax field is not a common sight in the Czech Republic. Here’s a picture of a field of flax growing right in front of my eyes as I type from my summer getaway spot. And a closeup of the pretty flowers:  

There is a cocktail bar we love here, called Hapu. Even after 8 years of drop by visits, we still don't know where its name comes from, but to us Hapu means cool atmosphere, drinks that deserve to show up on a dessert menu, and lots of memories.

I hadn’t been to the Prague Zoo for a few years and didn’t remember it as anything special. It was badly damaged in the 2002 flood and when I was there a year or two later, there was lots of reconstruction and new construction going on. Lots of promise in the air, but a pretty bare place at...

This week’s show had some excellent new music from The Whitest Boy Alive, Little Dragon, Boozoo Bajou and Rosalia de Souza, as well as some straight-up classics from Joao Gilberto and Marcos Valle. But the happiness was also mixed with sadness about the passing of Curtis Jones, who died this...  

Our last and final day in Prague. We decided to take a tour to Kutna Hora which is about 70 miles from Prague. It is one of the oldest towns and used to be a huge silver mining town at one time with a population greater than Praguersquos. Now it is a small town of 20000. Probably the main reason that people...  

Day 52  

Yesterday I woke up before 5am to go Obama speak at the Prague Castle at 10.It was a beautiful morning and it was nice to see the sunrise over St.Nicholas which you can see in the background behind Obama during his speech. Obama did a great job of inserting pieces of Czech history into is speech saying that...
