Summary

The world is still crazy over chess! At one point last year, chess was the most view's stream on Twitch, and it even surpassed Fortnite, which once was the most viewed game on Twitch! In this episode, I have, the Former World Chess Champion, Garry Kasparov, on to talk everything about chess, and his new platform, kasparovchess.com. I asked him all sorts of questions that I have been pondering myself for the past few months as I was trying to improve my chess rating. Can you be good at chess if you just starting out as an adult, what's the difference between Number One in chess, and Number Two in chess? If you just started, what should you focus on? We also talked about all the features on Kasparovchess, from masterclass to online video lessons, to puzzles, to podcast! Listen and enjoy! My new book Skip The Line is out! Make sure you get a copy wherever you get your new book! Join You Should Run For President 2.0 Facebook Group, and we discuss why should run for president. I write about all my podcasts!
