DrupalEasy Podcast

A quick live podcast featuring a reaction from Mike and Ryan about Dries' Drupal 9 Blog Post. Recorded on YouTube Live, and this audio version is reposted to our podcast channel for your convenience.

Almost all of the DrupalEasy Podcast hosts congregate to take a look back and a look forward at Drupal 8. We discuss some of our favorite things about Drupal 8 as well as what we're looking forward to the most in the coming year.
