Basket Traffic: History versus Hollywood
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 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.

Welcome back to the show where we combine film, history and comedy.
As the nights grow longer and shadows creep across the land, one name still sends a chill through the centuries—Dracula. But before he became the immortal count of gothic legend, there was a real man behind the myth: Vlad the Impaler, a 15th-century prince whose brutal rule inspired Bram Stoker’s timeless tale of blood and fear.
Today, Shawn, Susie and Craig will sink their teeth into the history behind Halloween’s most iconic monster—exploring how folklore, fear, and fact intertwined to give birth to the world’s most famous vampire.
