JSONDecodeError: Extra data in json.loads

[cdcme]

In the response from TransloadIt, we get:

and the extra characters at the beginning and end of the response data cause the function to blow up when the data gets loaded within the transloadit library using json.loads().

Any progress on this? We also get the same error.

I have a PR out to fix this.
