      Highly recommended. Extra bonus in the video version: The adorably endearing bit where she refers to him as Mr. Ladyada.

      If you’re not familiar with their videos, they are a really wholesome duo and bring that along to the projects that they are involved in. Phil has a bit of a catchphrase that he’s been saying for years on their New Product videos that starts every time with “And the star of the show today, besides you Ladyada…”. And the CircuitPython weekly stand-up always has a section of the agenda dedicated to “Hug Reports” (practicing gratitude). It’s great having positive presences in the Maker/Hardware Hacking community.
