Saving Santa with S-expressions: The Advent of Code in Clojure:
The Advent of Code has come and gone. Santa has once again been saved, thanks to some clever Clojure coding. Norman will recap this year's Advent of Code, showing some of the more interesting problems and what you need to know about Clojure to solve them effectively.

Babashka Examples
With the overview of Babashka last month we ran out of time before we got to see much code, so this month Sam will show more examples and anyone else who's been playing with Babashka can show their examples as well.

Talks For Year Planning
We're also looking for some talks for the new year. We want to plan out the schedule early this year, so you can have a few months to work on a talk before you would need to give it. Let's all work together to give some great talks this year.
