**Topic 1 **- Welcome back to the show; It’s been a while, let’s reintroduce you to our audience. Tell us about the types of things you work on.
**Topic 2 **- There are so many things going on with APIs these days, sometimes it’s hard to know where to start. Do you have a framework that you use to help companies think about APIs? ** **
**Topic 3 **- Are there different perspectives that developers have if they are dealing with APIs for monolithic applications vs. microservices applications vs. external APIs?
**Topic 4 **- What is some of thinking around dynamically changing environments (e.g. DevOps, Agile) and APIs (versioning, testing changes, etc.)?
**Topic 5 **- What are some of the more critical things that you’re always reinforcing and educating people about APIs?
**Topic 6 **- We’re seeing more companies emerge that just deliver APIs as part of an ecosystem of services. How has this changed application development?
