Did you know that Ashton Kutcher, Sigmund Freud and Madeleine Albright all have something in common with the Czech Republic?

Czechia may be a small country, but its stories reach much further than you might think. Some world-famous people were actually born here, while others have Czech parents, grandparents or even great-great-grandparents.

In this episode of the slowczech Podcast, Nikola takes you on a journey through four surprising Czech connections.

It's a fun way to explore Czech culture, history and family roots while improving your Czech listening skills.

Useful Czech vocabulary:

  • kořeny – roots
  • narodit se – to be born
  • emigrace – emigration
  • prapradědeček – great-great-grandfather
  • rodinná historie – family history
