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.

Shawn and Susie join me as we try to figure out who actually deserves the heavy weight champion title of starting World War One. It's not exactly a title that any one wants or deserves, but someone has to be responsible! If you're even a little interested in history then this episode is for you. Who doesn't love a story about love and assassination? Why does a lonely young man, who had difficulty with women, get inspired to murder for love of country? Press play to find out.
-Gavrilo Princip, Frank Ferdinand, Oskar Potiorek
