Interested in playing chess but always hear how it is difficult to learn especially if you are an adult? There is no better time to start playing chess than today, especially with all the resources available now!!! Let's learn this game together and prove that while we may never become a grandmaster, we can still have fun. We can have a great time learning the game and progress to whatever level we can get to and until someone invents a time machine, today is still the best day to start. My personal goal is to see how high I can get my rating, while being a parent and holding two jobs, and two podcasts etc. etc. just like many of you. My goal is currently 1,500 USCF and my stretch goal is 2,000 USCF. Lets see where we all can get to!2026

    L2C 065: Listener Emails and Bill's Latest OTB Tournament at Marywood

    The Doctor (and I) love nothing more than emails from our listeners. This episode starts off we a few of our more recent emails, including one from our first listener prescription request. We then go into a quick review of Bill's latest OTB tournament at Marywood.

    L2C 063: Dr Can Kabadayi on Learning Chess

    World Class Chess Instructor and prolific author of multiple award winning Chessable Courses Dr Can Kabadayi joins the podcast and we discuss a few of the more important aspects of learning chess by applying Dr Can's background in cognitive science and experience as a chess coach to help you get better at the game of chess. It was a fantastic episode and we can't wait to have Dr Can back on the podcast for part 2 of hopefully many, many more discussions.
