Now you've Had your basic introduction to Core perl data types (https://youtu.be/zNsew4U-quM), let's dig deeper.

In this talk, I'll dive into more advanced topics of perl internals, including:
- The Stash
- GVs and RVs
- PADs
- The "op tree"
- CVs
- MAGIC
- Perl Globals
- A light introduction to XS

To get maximal value out of this talk, it's my expectation you'll have a basic understanding of perl variables and a passing knowledge of basic C such as arrays, structs, and unions.
