00:00 Talk Python to Me, episode number zero, recorded Saturday, March 21st, 2015.

00:06 Hello, and welcome to Talk Python to Me, a weekly podcast on Python.

00:36 The language, the libraries, the ecosystem, and the personalities.

00:39 This is your host, Michael Kennedy.

00:41 Follow me on Twitter, where I'm @mkennedy, and keep up with the show and listen to past

00:47 episodes at talkpythontome.com.

00:50 This very short episode is just a small deposit to get this podcast started.

00:54 I looked around and I saw that there was really no good Python podcasts anymore.

01:00 There used to be, but for some reason they all stopped.

01:03 So I decided it's time to take some action and create a podcast for everybody out there

01:08 in the Python community.

01:08 So I hope you all enjoy it, and I hope you let me know what you think of the show by contacting

01:13 me.

01:14 First, though, I want to let you know we have some fantastic episodes and some brilliant

01:18 guests lined up for the very first set of shows.

01:21 One of the first guests is going to be Mike Bayer, who is the creator and maintainer of SQL

01:27 Alchemy.

01:27 SQLAlchemy is a really fantastic ORM that lets you talk to all sorts of relational databases.

01:33 On the other side, maybe we want to talk about NoSQL and non-relational databases.

01:39 So we're going to have Jesse Davis from MongoDB on our show as well.

01:44 And Jesse is the maintainer and the author of PyMongo, the PyMongo driver, as well as a ton

01:50 of other amazing Python open source projects.

01:53 So we're going to talk to Jesse about Python, about MongoDB, maybe even some asyncio.

01:59 We're also going to talk about web services.

02:02 We're going to focus on EVE, which is an open source REST API.

02:06 And we're going to talk to Nikola Hiroshi about EVE.

02:09 Should be a fascinating conversation.

02:11 Well, I hope you're looking forward to these conversations as much as I am.

03:02 Stating with my voice.

03:03 There's no norm that I can feel within.

03:05 Haven't been sleeping.

03:06 I've been using lots of rest.

03:08 I'll pass the mic back to who rocked his best.

03:11 I'm first a ballot first.
