Basket Traffic
Welcome to Basket Traffic!
(Formerly called, 80% There)
Brought to you by hosts Craig, Shawn and Susie. Our goal with this podcast is to blend our interests—history and entertainment—through story-telling and conversation. Craig thinks he knows history. Shawn is apparently into cinephilia, and Susie wants nothing to do with any of it. In short, we're seriously unserious and a little irreverent. We use history and entertainment as our outlet to manage this crazy world.
Have a listen and press "follow" if you enjoy it. We'd really appreciate it.
