Basket Traffic: Film & TV meets History
Need a break from the intensity of life? Need a laugh? Join our podcast. We fuse Film and TV with (light) History and try to find the comedy in it.
Hailing from Vancouver, this podcast is brought to you by hosts Craig, Shawn and Susie. Through story telling and conversation, our podcast grinds and plods along a meandering path of history and entertainment. Craig brings the history. Shawn brings the cinephilia (cinema lover), and Susie wants nothing to do with any of it. In short, we're seriously unserious and a little irreverent.
Have a listen and press "follow" if you enjoy it. We'd really appreciate it.

It’s not commonly known the specific events that caused the Berlin Wall to “fall” in November of 1989. A man named Günter made some interesting choices on the days leading up to that fateful day of the 9th, and no doubt made assumptions about his new position as press secretary of the Soviet-controlled East German republic. We’ve all been there at some point where our actions have had impacts, but were they ever this large? Listen to find out why he had a very bad day.
