    Great Resource
    I really enjoy this series, the host has great guests with unique but applicable perspectives. As a novice data-doer i love hearing about the potential applications of different tech tools.

    Best podcast for all things Python
    I’ve been following this podcast for quite a while now and in every episode I learn something new.
  • jjbetween
    I learned something listen one
    A lot went over my head but so much logic and previous personal experiences made sense to me about tuples from one part of the first time I listened. I will be talking this podcast on my walks with me, super great to just hear something talking about python
  • Loomis?
    Easy to listen to
    I started a training course on Python and was searching for a podcast that I could dive into and gain “live” insights into python. This show does not disappoint. It’s very easy to approach, even with my basic understanding of the language, but when they go deep into the current state of the technology it makes you want to go and research what they’re talking about. Great job everyone, I look forward to each episode.

    Excellent show, great guests, very informative
    The summary says it all. Michael has had years of experience at this point picking topics and interviewing guests and it shows. The episodes, even if the subject may not be something you instinctively would want to learn more about, will give you a well rounded understanding and leave you wanting to go out and try whatever library or technique they are taking about. This and Python Bytes are must listens for Python programmers that want to stay up on the technology!
  • JoeRecursionjoe
    Awesome podcast
    This is one of the best podcasts for Python. Michael always has guests who are interesting and most often the maintainers of popular Python packages.
  • Jason Washburn
    Never miss one
    This is the one podcast I will prioritize listening to new episodes over any other…and Python Bytes is right behind that. Best source for information about what happening and relevant in the Python ecosystem.
  • KevinSydaptic
    One of the best...
    Great interviews that covers the wide area of industries, academics, and hobbyist pursuits that Python gets used for. Always informative and entertaining.
  • phil for python
    best thing since slices!!
    Wonderful informative podcast, frequently I pick out frameworks, code snippets, libraries, and techniques which are just thrown out casually by Michael Kennedy. Amazing!
  • joost4u
    No longer relevant
    This was THE podcast to listen to… years ago. Now this has become very formulaic, too many boring interviews with a supposedly important personality, too much talk about web/html/site related environments. This and Python bites I no longer listen to. I rather would like a talk whereby the speakers fumble and stumble through using some largely unknown library or environment.

    leftist morons
    no problem with Twitter and all fascist commie democrat activist tech political censorship, lying, election interference, etc, but Twitter bought by Elon Musk, OH NO! Absolute dishonesty and delusion to claim you like mastodon for open ness when all of you were fine with twitter and all tech bias. Very transparent.
  • malfoxley
    Great show!

    Great podcast
    >>>print(‘I like it a lot’) “””If you think you know Python, listen to this podcast. This language is ever evolving and there’s always a nugget or more for any listener. I really appreciate the show notes! There’s so much content in a single episode, and having the chronological notes and links are an added bonus.””” >>>quit()
  • Imaurer
    Interesting conversation across a range of Python topics
    Michael does a great job interviewing folks from the Python community. He keeps the conversation at a good level of detail to still be useful without getting too far into the weeds. Not an easy task in an audio only format. He also brings to the conversations a broad level of expertise but is still able to ask questions that are relevant to people first encountering a topic.

    The best, but...
    Michael is the best in the Python podcast universe, but OMG I really wish he would stop saying “whatnot”
  • unix?
    This keeps me engaged doing tasks.
    Thank you for showing this perspective with the world. Was looking for a pod cast that would help me vocab build. Please keep up the grate work

    Ahmed
    Absolutely my favorite. He is such a knowledgeable developer, presenter, interviewer and he is also a great teacher. He makes his presentations very accessible and his interviews never feel like an interview. I started my python and data science journey through this I look forward to his podcast every week now. All the best michael.
  • dldnh
    Excellent
    This is an excellent podcast. The topics, the guests, the host, the interviews - really well done!
  • TX 4ever
    Great listen
    Interesting guests, host does a great job moderating and leading the conversation. Awesome for both advanced and beginner python users.
  • rbcollins
    Interesting and broad focus
    Michael does a good job of trying to represent the myriad of areas people use Python as well as the evolution of the language itself.
  • JL Texaz
    Interesting
    Not a “how-to” but addictively fascinating. It is neat to see how people are using Python.
  • Sister Motoko
    Great info, uncharismatic host
    The host speaks very quickly, and a lot of his responses feel like he’s just trying to quickly get to the next point. Relax your schedule, let people answer naturally. Calm down. Great and informative otherwise
  • Ianbttlsian
    Consistently excellent content and great guests
    Michael is one of the leading voices of the Python community. The content is always intriguing and a great way to stay motivated while learning. Keep up the great work!
  • DaButler89
    Excellent
    I love the long form, story driven podcasts. Micheal does a great job interviewing and always seems to get the best guests. I’m working on listening to every episode.
  • AJ Pryor
    Fantastic content
    I've been a fan of this show for quite some time. High-quality content that I look forward to every week.
  • Takethelguy
    Great
    5/5 podcast that is great to listen to.
  • Agent619
    Seriously a Gem
    I listen to talk python to me whenever I clean my yard because I get to do two things at once and I learn so much in this podcast about the industry itself. I learned how to code without going the academia route and I’m continuing to polish my coding craft. Hearing the testimonies here from the awesome guests really help me see that I’m not so crazy with this approach as some might think lol. I often hear Michael talking about self taught learners in a positive way. I like the guests and the insights. I especially like how they name drop favorite packages or sites that they use to help code. Michael does a great job of SHARING the tools of coding techniques. I’ve learned about some conventions worth attending like pycon or djangocon. There’s a good history lesson here as well. They’re conversations sometimes compare and contrast how things were done in the past vs how things are done today. Like the effects of cloud and how it shook up the Fortune 500. You get guests from many fields. I’ve heard data scientists, PlayStation workers, PhD grads, self taught programmers, trainers, former paramedics that transitioned into coding. It’s really an awesome group that he puts together. I even heard one guest that was slightly rude but Michael handled it with class and stayed cheerful throughout the entire interview. All in all this is a great podcast if you want some tips, techniques and inside looks at what is going on the programming with python and programming as a whole right now. Best wishes to all. Enjoy and Thanks for the talks!

    Best Python Podcast
    This is my favorite Python podcast. Here’s why: 1. Topics are very relevant to what’s trending in Data Science and applied Python in workplace 2. Great guests- I don’t know how you have so many quality guests on so consistently 3. Great host - thoughtful, experienced, engaging 4. Great production value- love the intro musical riff:) sound quality is top notch 5. Much more entertaining than most other Python podcasts - doesn’t break up content into disparate “segments” - feels more like a great conversation between host and guest; also don’t mind the ads bc I like the sound of the host’s voice

  • efstone
    If you care about Python at all, you need to listen to this podcast
    Wow. What can I say? Michael Kennedy is the best! His passion for Python is infectious. He pours it into his work and it shows. He takes the time to keep up with what’s going on and to make connections with people doing amazing things. Then he does amazing interviews with those amazing people. I look forward to this podcast more than any other podcast!
  • Dennis.Meek
    Exceptional for Those New to Python
    The podcast has been a wealth of information and has positively contributed to my efforts to learn Python. Michael interviews a great cross-section of people using Python. The biggest benefit for me has been the exposure to the various libraries and seeing the multitude of areas that I can use Python. Frankly, the podcast is the best way I’ve found to augment the training videos, documentation, and books I’ve used to learn the language. I learn a ton of new things from the podcast that I wouldn’t have exposure to otherwise.

    Exceptional
    One of the best developer related podcasts, assuming you work in python.
  • Tracksuitboss
    Interesting & entertaining
    I'm an avid listeners of podcasts going way back before this was a big thing. This is one of those special gems worth listening to, learn something new or remind myself of what is possible in python
  • Brendan Acord
    Perfect podcast for starting Python
    While I can sense the core audience of this podcast is not Python beginners, I am new to the language and practically every episode has introduced me to another cool library which I end up finding very useful. I can't recommend this enough as a resource for people getting into Python and it's very entertaining too!
  • Philarious_one
    Highly Recommended
    I've been programming for three years and working in Python on and off for just over a year now. I was looking for a podcast to help learn more about the language and expose me to new tools and concepts. After listening a few of the first podcasts I'm highly satisfied. Not only is the content great, but the host is pleasant to listen to and keeps a good flow of conversation going. I highly recommend this to anyone in the Python community.
  • BruceChyi
