PastMaster: Reshaping History – Détails, épisodes et analyse

With American politics constantly in the news right now PastMaster heads back in time to visit the first presidents of the USA to see what they were like.

The year is 1775. Colonial America is on the brink of declaring independence from Britain. Ryan has arrived on the scene with two goals in mind:

1) Can he make some changes to the constitution before it gets enshrined? 

2) Can he make such a big mark on history that they put his face on Mount Rushmore?

Continuing our exploration of Claude-powered GameMasters we discover that getting our way is more complex than in previous adventures...

This episode features none other than George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, John Adam, Thomas Jefferson and of course Dolly Parton.

Tune in to find out whether Mount Rushmore is getting a facelift!

Is Atlantis real? That's the question we've been pondering as Tan takes to the PastMaster hotseat to try and uncover the truth.

Travelling back to ancient Athens, the first priority is to seek out a man who is a philosopher, and yet most famously known by his wrestling name - Plato.

Will Plato give us the answers? Will GameMaster Claude be any better at solving mysteries than GameMaster Chatty G?

Is Plato any good at wrestling?

Disney's "Dark Ages" typically encompasses the late 1960s to the late 1980s. During this time the quality and success of Disney animated films suffered and it wasn’t until 1989’s The Little Mermaid that things turned around.

But what happened? Why was one of the most successful studios of all time in decline?

The answer likely lies with the man himself, Walt Disney, whose untimely death at 65 left the company struggling to find creative leadership that could fill his shoes.

It turns out that Mr Disney liked a cigarette or three and probably didn’t live the healthiest lifestyle.

What would have happened had Walt not died? Would things be different? Would the Dark Ages of Disney never come to be? Today’s guest, Em McGowan from the film-history podcast Verbal Diorama, is on a mission to find out.

Can she stop Walt Disney from smoking and encourage a healthier lifestyle? Will Disney be saved?

This week the team head to the Palace of Versailles to host a fantasy dinner party attended by the good (Jesus and Gandhi), the bad (Hitler, Stalin and Mao) prominent historical female leaders (Elizabeth I and Cleopatra) and wild card Liz Truss.

Roleplaying the Hostess with the Mostest, Tan unveils a tempting but symbolic menu for the assembled guests, trying to get them to see eye to eye.

Breaking the ice with a question about wrestling, Tan gets the party off to a good start, but with such divisive and disparate personalities at the table, how will he keep control of proceedings?

And will Liz Truss be able to follow what is happening?

The book Tan mentioned about ultra running is [The Rise of the Ultra Runners](https://www.adharanandfinn.com/the-rise-of-the-ultra-runners) by Adharanand Finn. Well worth a read. Good luck with your alpine adventure, Ryan!
