At PyCascades, Isaiah even gave a Lightning Talk announcing Python Out Loud to nearly 400 audience members: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrzfSU-8zVY&amp;feature=youtu.be&amp;t=24m50s" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrzfSU-8zVY&amp;feature=youtu.be&amp;t=24m50s</a></p> <p>We recommend watching all of the other amazing talks, as well: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtWI06j1EADmEOGj2iJhSyA" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtWI06j1EADmEOGj2iJhSyA</a></p> <p>Also, while explaining why we started with Episode 0 and not Episode 1, Isaiah told us about a controversial topic in mathematics. So controversial, in fact, it involves fistfights! (Please encourage Isaiah to tell us more about the fight. Was he a participant? Were calculators involved?)</p> <p>And finally, Isaiah took the opportunity to thank friend of the show, Michael Kennedy, for now only mentioning Python Out Loud in <a href="https://pythonbytes.fm/episodes/show/62/wooey-and-gooey-are-simple-python-guis" rel="nofollow">Python Bytes Episode 62</a>, but also generously donating several Talk Python <a href="https://training.talkpython.fm/courses/bundle/2018-annual-bundle" rel="nofollow">2018 Annual Course Bundles</a>.
