Dropcast: Episode 20 - Kind of a big deal

This episode we hit a land mark of twenty episodes, so instead of picking on Mario the entire time, we talk about our favorite moments at Drupalcon in New Orleans. Of course this is funny since half of us didn't actually attend the 'Con. Other episode titles considered: "Bob and Mario live vicariously through Mark and Ryan"
