Will be heading to Prague on Wednesday/Thursday, joining a Rick tour on Saturday, and heading to Budapest the following week. Would anyone like to recommend a SIM card that would work well in both locales for a two-week period? Wouldn't mind having a data plan but voice only would probably be OK, depending (a little) on the price difference. BTW, I have a new Moto E4 (Android).

The EU has done away with most roaming charges, so you can buy a SIM in Prague that will work in Hungary at no extra cost. Some SIM plans may not allow roaming at all, so just ask when buying it.
Here's some info that might help:

FYI, if you happen to be from the US, you can use Google Hangouts to make free phone calls home to the US, even to landlines. Install it before you leave the US, while on WiFi or using mobile data. You can use it to make calls to European phones too just not for free (a few cents per minute) - but if you buy a Czech SIM, you can of course just use that for local calls instead.
I hope you enjoy your new E4. That may be my next phone - I have an older Moto E (2nd gen) and love it for the cost.
