Follow me on Twitter where I'm at M. Kennedy,

And follow the show on Twitter via at Doc Python.

This episode is brought to you by Retool and Linode.

Please check out what they're offering during their segments.

We'll be giving away five tickets to attend Picon US 2021.

And because it's online this year, it's open to anyone around the world.
