We talk about Python internals, because we work on Python internals. We joke about stuff, because we’re jokers. Episodes between 60 and 90 minutes in length. We’ve done more than a few so far and it doesn’t seem like we’ll be stopping any time soon! Hi Loren!

    Episode 27: Calling Things, Part 1

    Inside of you there are two stacks. Actually, there’s three. The system-level call stack, the CPython call stack, and the interpreter’s evaluation stack. What is all that about?
