Understand what JSON Web Tokens (JWT) are and how they’ve come to be? Me either, thankfully Jason gives us a great Jason JSON Web Token rundown. We also have joke breaks, talk about the power of redirect files, Netlify Edge Handlers, and helpful information for user authorization.

- Cassidy’s Integrating Netlify Identity Into Your Next.js Apps
- Jason’s Manage Subscriptions and Protect Content with Stripe
- Tara’s Authenticating Users with Angular and Netlify Identity
