The return of The CircuitPython Show #CircuitPython #Python

I’m happy to share that The CircuitPython Show will return on January 13th. I know, I know – back in July in my last email I said the show was done. But when Scott Shawcroft brought up the annual tradition of asking the community what they want to see in CircuitPython for the new year, the wheels in my head started to spin.
I quickly brainstormed what season five of The CircuitPython Show would look like. I decided to expand the show from just interviews with CircuitPython developers and community members to also include more topic based shows. And just like that, I had six or eight ideas and people to talk to.
I bounced the show ideas off a couple of people who encouraged me to bring the show back. I sent out invites to potential guests and the response was fantastic.
You heard it here first – here’s the schedule for season five:
January 13: Aaron Pendley (aka squid.jpg)
January 27: Building a Weather System with Jan Goolsbey (aka CGrover)
Feb 10: Designing a PCB with Bradán Lane
Feb 24: Building CircuitPython from source with Dan Halbert
March 10: Creating a CircuitPython library with Jan Goolsbey and Tod Kurt
March 24: Project Collaboration with Liz Clark and Noe Ruiz
April 7: Audio Effects & Filters panel discussion with Cooper Dalrymple, Jeff Epler, Mark Komus, and Tod Kurt
April 21: Creating games for CircuitPython with Tim (aka foamyguy)
This is subject to change as I have a couple more shows to record, but I already have a number of shows recorded, edited, and ready to go.
You can find the show wherever you get your podcasts or follow the show on Mastodon or Bluesky.
Love the show or hate it? Have feedback on the show or emails? Have a guest or topic idea or want to come on the show? Hit reply and let me know, I’d love to hear from you!
Thanks for listening and until next time – stay positive!
