Episode 0 Postscript: your_questions_answered

Episode 0 Postscript Show Notes (http://pythonoutloud.com/episode0postscript): pythonoutloud.com/episode0postscript (http://pythonoutloud.com/episode0postscript) While we create Episode 1, this Episode 0 Postscript answers some of your questions, discusses our plans for the show, and announces our first giveaway! In addition, Isaiah shared some stories from PyCascades (https://www.pycascades.com/) (https://www.pycascades.com/ (https://www.pycascades.com/)), a regional Python conference held in Canada in January 2018. At PyCascades, Isaiah even gave a Lightning Talk announcing Python Out Loud to nearly 400 audience members: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrzfSU-8zVY&feature=youtu.be&t=24m50s (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrzfSU-8zVY&feature=youtu.be&t=24m50s) We recommend watching all of the other amazing talks, as well: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtWI06j1EADmEOGj2iJhSyA (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtWI06j1EADmEOGj2iJhSyA) 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?) And finally, Isaiah took the opportunity to thank friend of the show, Michael Kennedy, for now only mentioning Python Out Loud in Python Bytes Episode 62 (https://pythonbytes.fm/episodes/show/62/wooey-and-gooey-are-simple-python-guis), but also generously donating several Talk Python 2018 Annual Course Bundles (https://training.talkpython.fm/courses/bundle/2018-annual-bundle). Follow us on Twitter as @PythonOutLoud (https://twitter.com/pythonoutloud (https://twitter.com/pythonoutloud)) to find out how you can win a Course Bundle. This episode features the song "Happy Ukulele" by Scott Holmes (http://freemusicarchive.org/music/Scott_Holmes/) and the songs "And So Then" and "Puzzle Pieces" by Lee Rosevere (http://freemusicarchive.org/music/Lee_Rosevere/). Thank you for your support, and stay tuned for Episode 1. We plan to discuss problem solving in Python, focusing on the so-called FizzBuzz Challenge.
