+Niki Vazou and Andres Löh are joined by guest Théophile Choutri (they/them), who
+also goes by Hécate. Théophile coordinates multiple projects and volunteer
+groups within the Haskell Foundation, notably the Haskell School project
+(intending to provide a free online open source library for teaching Haskell),
+and works on improving GHC core documentation and developing an alternative to
+Hackage. Together they discuss Théophile's introduction to Haskell and their
+ongoing projects with the Foundation and the broader community, with a focus on
+the challenges facing Haskell non-experts and how they hope to tackle them.
