Description
In this podcast, we discuss the newly released book with Jared Bhatti, staff technical writer at Google, and Zachary Sarah Corleissen, staff technical writer at Stripe (two of the co-authors).

The authors use the scenario of documenting Corg.ly, an API that translates barks, as a common thread through each of the chapters.
