Thanks a lot, @aktualnecz.zpravobot.news.ap.brid.gy, for having me in the Krotitelé Bossů podcast. We discussed a lot of topics, including how is the game development seen in the Czech Republic. It was great to share my opinions, in Czech.

🎙️Podcast #354: KCD2 a... programátoři

Pokračuju v sérii rozhovorů s vývojáři @WarhorseStudios. Po @pettka.bsky.social (mluvil o DLC Barvy smrti) jsem pozval Martina Štýse, který vede tým programátorů (je jich ~30) a současně je technický ředitel studia. Hype netřeba, velký "borec"! #modrakfriends

Kids working on goods for their e-shop to fulfill their dream - a journey to a sea

Yay, my youngling was on TV 🥳
I shared news about the project at Základní škola Liška where kids decided to craft some accessories and opened an e-shop (check their web). It got some traction and they appeared even on ČT Déčko (part of the national Czech TV): www.ceskatelevize.cz/.../1026574....

My oldest youngling (8yo) is a part of a school project where they create, describe, capture and even sell small crafts to get money for a school trip. And I'm proud as a parent that they learn such things at this early age. Feel free to check their story: www.lesniskolaliska.cz/eshop

I'm as proud of my kids as any parent could be. And I'm happy for the education that they get at Základní škola Liška - the kids there just started their own e-shop to fulfill a dream. It's clear to me that they won't get lost in the real life 🥳
