  • I love this podcast. I am not a teacher in the traditional sense but I try and teach others what I have learned as a software developer. Kelly and Sean do a great job talking about how they teach python in school, the issues teachers face, etc. They really seem like they love python and bring others into the mix who do the same. If your a teacher or a developer or both them you really should give them a listen. Keep up the great work!

  • Great podcast

    Loved episode 35, and Sean and Kelly’s easy way of distilling and extolling the benefits of learning to code. Worth the listen for anyone teaching or learning to code.
