title: JSONDecodeError "Expecting property name enclosed in double quotes" from file with multiple JSON documents
body: <p>Having looked everywhere on Google and having no success at finding a solution to this problem, I continue getting the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>JSONDecodeError: Expecting property name enclosed in double quotes: line 2 column 1 (char 2)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The error occurs at the line: <code>row = json.loads(row)</code> in my Python file. The JSON file contains a section from the Reddit comments from <code>2015-05</code>:</p>

  <p>The JSON file already has double quotes on everything that needed double quotes.
  If there was some other error causing this one <a href="https://jsonlint.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">JSONLint.com</a> claimed the JSON was free from them.</p>
  
  <p>I had been referencing my code from <a href="https://pythonprogramming.net/building-database-chatbot-deep-learning-python-tensorflow/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this tutorial</a>, where the tutorial's code worked fine without any errors (<em>this is according to the video attached, for using the code from the link above, I still get the error</em>). Because the tutorial used Python 3.5, I downgraded my Python version and continued to get the same error.</p>
  
  <p><strong>What's the cause of this error if the JSON is already using double quotes and valid by <a href="https://jsonlint.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">JSONLint</a>?</strong></p>
