Ep 009 - Alternate History and For All Mankind Warming Up to the Cold War
-
- 역사
If you could change a single moment in history, what would you choose to change and why? This question has inspired an entire genre of fiction that explores worlds in which significant historical events had a dramatically different outcome. In this episode of Warming Up to the Cold War, we're discussing the merits of alternate history and using the Apple TV+ series For All Mankind as a case study. I compare and contrast the real timeline with the alternate timeline beginning with a Soviet moon landing and analyze how the arc of For All Mankind parallels the real Space Race and all of the pros and cons that come with this kind of alternate history story.
