"A bourbon on the throne of France? And why not a Ricard while we're at it!" (Victor Vauthier-Melun, aperitif, October 22, 2017).<p> "De Gaulle, his famous appeal of June 18, that was at the end of August, right?" (Rosalie Barnier-Angers, dinner with friends, June 16, 2017).</p><p> Why do such absurdities come out? Alcohol? That's not all. "Every year, rampant ignorance claims thousands of victims in France, and our country can no longer afford to neglect its past," the Minister of Culture reminds us. A points-based history license is now in place. Have you just lost yours?</p><p> Luckily, the effervescent Christine Berthier, your coach, is there to help you rediscover them. Moving seamlessly from Christopher Columbus to Ryan Gosling, or from Julius Caesar to her grandmother, this history enthusiast will surprise you in more ways than one. Like Merlin with Arthur, she journeys through the ages, enriching her narrative with anecdotes more outlandish than the last, so that humanity may finally feel grateful and respectful of the fabulous adventure that is human history.<br><br> With her, "you don't learn while having fun" but "you have fun while learning." You'll leave this show disheveled, shaken up, but happy to have laughed so much at these juicy anecdotes and her colorful, cheeky style.</p>
