I don't understand what is going on here. What am I doing wrong?
messy_list = ["a", 2, 3, 1, False, [1, 2, 3]]
popped_messy_list.insert(0, 1) = messy_list.pop(1)

You're going to want to change your code from
popped_messy_list.insert(0, 1) = messy_list.pop(1)
to
popped_messy_list.insert(0, messy_list_item_popped_at_particular_index)
Where 0 is where you're inserting the popped item and messy_list_item_popped_at_particular_index is the result of the popped item at the given index.
