What if the Trojan Horse...wasn't a horse at all? In this epic battle of wits, Tan and Keon compete to design history's greatest deception at the walls of Troy.The siege of Troy has dragged on for a decade when our contestants arrive with modern minds but Bronze Age materials. Under the watchful eye of a science-obsessed Game Master (channeling Bill Nye), Tan and Keon's increasingly desperate attempts to create the perfect Trojan deception face the harsh scrutiny of historical accuracy. From titanosaurs that shoot bats to poisonous chocolate fountains, their creative proposals are systematically rejected until they're forced to work within strict Bronze Age limitations.When the final designs are presented—Tan's reluctantly traditional horse versus Keon's unexpected 'Tree of Peace'—the Trojans make their choice, leading to a surprise conclusion that rewrites the legendary deception we thought we knew.Set during the legendary Trojan War (around 1200 BCE), this episode explores one of history's most famous military deceptions. After ten years of unsuccessful siege, the Greeks famously constructed a wooden horse to trick the Trojans into bringing armed soldiers within their impenetrable walls. While the historical accuracy of Homer's account remains debated by scholars, the Trojan Horse has become synonymous with the concept of deception throughout Western culture.<h2>Get in touch with us:</h2>Instagram 👉 ⁠@PastMasterPod⁠ (check out our AI-generated art illustrating what our adventures might have looked like)Twitter 👉 ⁠@PastMasterAITikTok 👉 ⁠@PastMasterAIGmail 👉 ⁠*pastmasterpod@gmail.com<a href="https://www.pastmaster.ai/">Sign up to our newslette</a>r Learn more about your ad choices.
