It might serve to evaluate why you feel the way you feel on a deeper level. Based only on your comments here I don't think any ire is justified.
For someone to to even make the determination that "Lisp did my better" they must
A. Have a comprehensive knowledge of both Python and Lisp.
B. Have some understanding of the history of the languages.
C. Understand the problem on an intrinsic, fundamental level that enables them to evaluate which approach is better.
D. Generalize the problem to a broader scope to demonstrate why one language is better on a broader level.
E. Understand every other language ever used so when they show why Lisp does it better, they can defend themselves when someone comes up and tells them, "actually, Pascal does this even better yet."
Furthermore, it doesn't really matter what language did it better. The point of most talks is simply to demonstrate how to solve some problem in a certain language. If every talk started with "you can do this in Python, and I'll show you how, but you should probably just switch to Lisp because it does it better," that isn't very helpful.
