S4E14: Aussie Rules Speed Run – Death Wish Down Under
PastMaster takes a dark turn as Ryan, Tan, and guest Nick Horseman compete in a 'Death Wish Speed Run' at Port Jackson's newly established penal colony. Using DeepSeek's surprisingly sassy AI as game master, our time travellers attempt increasingly outlandish ways to meet their maker—from attacking guards with rusty spoons to unleashing venomous creatures on colonial officials.
Who will claim the dubious honour of the fastest, most stylish demise in this brutal historical setting?
In 1788, the First Fleet established Britain's initial penal colony at Port Jackson (now Sydney), Australia. Life for convicts was brutal, with harsh punishments, limited rations, and the constant threat of death from disease, violence, or Australia's dangerous wildlife. The colonial outpost represented both Britain's solution to prison overcrowding and the beginning of European settlement in Australia.
