API's (Fusion Drives)

https://youtu.be/Mqmei4BqFqI

This was an introduction to how API's work, making use of an API from NPR to walk us through the structure of an Application Programming Interface, the requests that are made, the structure of the data coming back and an example of how that structured data might be modified so that it is presented in a more human friendly or aesthetically pleasing format.
