I don't have any particular love for dynamic typing, but I really can't find a language I like developing in more than Python. I use type hints wherever I can so I (and others) know what the hell is going on, but I have yet to find a language as expressive and productive with so many great stdlib or community packages as Python.

I started futzing with Golang but I felt like I was always typing 50 lines to do what I could in 3-4 in Python. I might circle back as it matures more and there are more libraries.

Yeah, Go is that way on purpose. You're not meant to use magic that works mysteriously, but to be a bit "step-by-step" in your code, so it's obvious what's being done.
