APIs You Won't Hate

A no-nonsense (well, some-nonsense) podcast about API design & development, new features in the world of HTTP, service-orientated architecture, microservices, and probably bikes.

Catching up with Phil, Mike, and Alexander

Though we've been working together for a long while, it turns out that Alexander, Phil, and Mike had never all recorded a podcast together before. We caught up to catch up on what everyone's been up to these past few months, to talk APIs, and to gab about the future of this very community. Creators & Guests Phil Sturgeon - Host Mike Bifulco - Host Alexander Karan - Host
