EP. 9 A Beginner's Guide to Brussels Communes Part III

It's a Grand Place · Oct 23, 2026 · 50m

After a week off, Brian and Sveva are back with a bumper commune episode — and they’re covering a lot of ground.

This time it’s Evere, Ganshoren, Jette, Koekelberg, Berchem-Sainte-Agathe, Watermael-Boitsfort and Molenbeek-Saint-Jean.

Expect hidden villages, weird borders, industrial history, forests, castles, cemeteries, chicons, communes nobody can quite place on a map… and, because apparently seven communes weren’t enough, a surprise guest also invades the podcast.

Seven communes. One very long catch-up. Plenty of Brussels chaos.
