Even better than the flash back, I was wondering if you could reinterview, not too long, people you spoken with in the past. I personal re listen to my favorites. So the flashback is useless to me. But I think we would all love if you revisited a few folks to see where they are at and how they currently feel about chess.
I was surprised you didn’t know about FIDE Online Arena. Many people from all over the world use this forum. I thought it was a big deal in the chess world because it’s associated with FIDE…maybe not🤔
Love your podcast and hearing relatable stories of folks on their chess journey like me.
I bought the chessnut pro using your code tonight. I play in a lot of the unrated clubs around LA and hope playing longer time controls on the chessnut will prepare me for OTB rated games some day.
I like Kevin’s unassuming style and informative programme contents. He is a great podcast host with a focus on adult improvers. I find listening to the podcasts as addictive as playing bullet chess—the difference being that this is good for your chess, while we all know bullet isn’t! Thanks, Kevin, for all your work.
As a 57 year old chess improver the podcast had been both inspirational and motivational to my development. It’s great to hear how other people are going through the same difficulties as I am, whist trying to manage chess study around my family commitments and my job. Lots of great tips and book recommendation's to help any improver progress thank you from myself and all adult improvers. 👍
