Basket Traffic: Entertainment Meets History
Welcome to Basket Traffic!
Brought to you by hosts Craig, Shawn and Susie. Through story telling and conversation, our podcast delves into history and entertainment and playfully examines the intersection of these two worlds. Craig thinks he knows history. Shawn is apparently into cinephilia (cinema), 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.
Basket Traffic: Entertainment Meets History
Who Really Sparked the First World War: Princip or Potiorek?
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
