New course: Agentic AI for Python Devs

Talk Python To Me

A podcast on Python and related technologies


Latest episode:
#527 MCP Servers for Python Devs

Today we’re digging into the Model Context Protocol, or MCP. Think LSP for AI: build a small Python service once and your tools and data show up across editors and agents like VS Code, Claude Code, and more. My guest, Den Delimarsky from Microsoft, helps build this space and will keep us honest about what’s solid versus what's just shiny. We’ll keep it practical: transports that actually work, guardrails you can trust, and a tiny server you could ship this week. By the end, you’ll have a clear mental model and a path to plug Python into the internet of agents.

What listeners think

Excellent
I love the long-form, story-driven podcasts. Michael does a great job interviewing and always seems to get the best guests. I'm working on listening to every episode.

Amazing!
This podcast series is amazing, I started listening today, and I'm committing to listening to at least a series every day, till I get to the top :)) Thank you Michael! This is amazing!

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 this the best way I've found to augment the training videos, documentation, and books I've used to learn the language.
