Yes there are - if you'd like to follow the link (below), the published
meeting-details include references.

One of my colleagues on the PUG Leadership Team has organised the
speaker, but I recall mention of "notebooks", etc. So, there may be
further resources which will be made-available during/after the talk
itself...

If you are a 'late-owl' in the (US) Pacific Time-Zone, you may like to
join us 'live'. Sadly, the timings rapidly become anti-social for more
easterly time-zones in the Americas.

If you are anywhere in the rest of the world, you will find that the
meeting falls sometime during your working-day, through to Europeans
at-breakfast!

You'll be most welcome!
