Show Notes
The year 2985. Neon skyscrapers, AI entities living alongside organic counterparts, and Keon has just arrived with his Instagram muscles and a mission to prevent the "Great Data Wipeout" — a virus threatening to destroy centuries of stored human knowledge. Yes, this is partly inspired by Busted's "Year 3000." No, that doesn't make it less serious.
The Game Master wastes no time roasting Keon's gym selfies — "let's see if these flex-for-the-gram muscles can help you flex your way through the annals of the future." Keon's opening move is to find a bar. What kind of bar? Part Star Wars cantina, part 2003 internet cafe, part Blade Runner dive. The drinks glow, the patrons have translucent cranial domes, and Keon is very much out of his depth. Whether his particular skill set translates to a future where data is more valuable than gold remains to be tested.
FutureMaster flips the entire PastMaster premise. Instead of navigating historical reality, Keon's dealing with a future entirely invented by the AI. No Wikipedia to fact-check against, no historians to correct it, just pure ChatGPT worldbuilding with the guardrails off. The AI gets to make everything up, and the results suggest it's been waiting for exactly this opportunity.
If you were sent back in time, could you survive and thrive — or would you be burnt at the stake for being a witch? PastMaster is the show that turns history into an interactive adventure game. Each episode, a comedian is dropped into the past with nothing but modern knowledge and terrible ideas. The AI Game Master is strict. The chaos is inevitable. The past will be mastered.
Era: Fiction | 2985 CE | New York City, United States
