Comment:

 @rhubbardreverb I'm working a suite of unit tests for our oEmbed providers
 (see #32360) and it's highlighted the fact that the response from the
 Reverbnation oEmbed endpoint is not valid. Can you ask your team to take a
 look at the following please?

  * The `version` field in the response has a value of `1.1`. There is no
 such thing as version 1.1 of [http://oembed.com/ the oEmbed
 specification].
  * The `provider-name`, `provider-url`, `author-name`, `author-url`, and
 `thumbnail-url` fields are all incorrectly named, as their names should
 contain underscores not dashes. I suspect this is deliberate, and the
 reason why the endpoint is claiming to be oEmbed version 1.1, but
 inventing a specification benefits nobody.

 WordPress core doesn't currently use these fields, but oEmbed plugins
 often do, and core may well do in the future.

 Let me know when you've taken a look!
