Fletch - From null to Maybe? What is a Maybe Monad?

We call "third-party" code (Like our Repos, SDKs, Frameworks, or other NuGet packages), and so we wrap our external calls in Try-Catches, we check the returned result for `null`, we do our best to determine if the value we received back is useable or if we should log an issue and cut out (or use a default). Or worst-case scenario, we just make the call and hope everything works out.

I mention Maybe Monads in a lot of my talks, let's get into what they are and how they shift responsibility, logical thinking, and boilerplate code.
