0:00.0	Hello, everyone, and welcome back to another perpetual chess world championship bonus pod.
0:08.0	This will be the last bonus pod, although not the last coverage of the world championship.
0:12.4	And we are excited to bring in a guest who I teased.
0:15.5	He is an award-winning coach, chessable author, YouTuber, and streamer.
0:19.8	As I've mentioned a couple times, he's actually
0:21.9	doing a free Chessable course on this very match. So a perfect person to talk to. And as those of
0:27.8	you heard my conversation with HFM, my client heard that he was in Singapore. He's actually
0:31.8	already back in Australia. So a whirlwind few days and he still got a video recap to record for

1:18.6	making a very memorable blunder and managing his clock quite poorly. But then today,
1:23.7	obviously, shocked me as Ding with the white pieces played a brilliant game and Gukestha's
1:29.6	never had a chance. What was your reaction to all of this, Andros? Well, it's not like, you know,
1:36.0	I want to make it look like it's all about me, but as a quick side note, I would like to mention
1:40.6	that I left Singapore two days ago. And since then, we have had exactly the same amount of decisive games as we had in the nine days that I left Singapore two days ago and since then we have had exactly the same
