thenewboston is really a bad recommendation. He teaches bad habits, he teaches you wrong stuff (because he has no clue about the languages himself).

You know I was going to try to debunk your argument, but then I looked over his videos again and realized that thenewboston isn't as good of a source as I thought he was. For someone who is getting hang of python, do you have an suggestions for tutorials? I've heard about Learn Python the Hard Way, and thought I might check it out.

What really actually helped me was going to securityoverride.com and completing their programming challenges. I did all of them in python, perl, and ruby so I could get comfortable with them all.

Took a look at all the challenges. Gonna be a hell of a couple weeks, thanks. Also I found learningpython.org which seems efficient enough to teach me indeterminate concepts. With that and the python documentation I will try to do these challenges in python and learn along the way.
