- Why he chose Django as a web framework and how he uses it at the company.

- What inspired him to write a highly practical (dense) book on Django.

- Some challenges he faced (and faces) with writing a "colossal" Django book :)

- Tips on learning new (complex) technologies.

- What adjacent skills are most important for the Django developer.
