What do Grammarly, Duolingo, and Chess.com have in common? What has Gorav's obsession with these three things amounted to? How can storytelling make chess fun even for people who are bad at it? This week, we chat with Albert Cheng, Chief Growth Officer at Chess.com.

Albert Cheng led Growth for three of the most successful apps in the world: Duolingo, Grammarly, and Chess.com.

What are Gorav's biggest storytelling & AI lessons so far from Wharton MBA? How did the World's Greatest Narcissist come to be? For LSPTPod's five-year anniversary, we'd like to give an update on our stories and what's to come. Thank you for staying on our journey together - we miss you dearly.

Rewind Time! This week, we celebrate the graphic novel release of Ginseng Roots by Craig Thompson with a rewind of our chat with Craig in Season 3. Pick up the Ginseng Roots graphic novel in your local comic book store!

Why is the American agriculture story relevant to you (yes, you)? Is comic book a genre or a medium? Why should you care about where your food comes from? How does the story of an herbal root connect the US-China trade?

Kevin stumbled upon an issue in the series and got super curious - what could an American artist possibly say about Northeastern China and an herbal root best known in Chinese medicine? He ended up loving the entire series. Ginseng Roots explores class divide, agriculture, holistic healing, the 300-year-long trade relationship between China and North America, childhood labor, and the bond between two brothers.

Craig Thompson is a graphic novelist and author of Blankets; Good-bye, Chunky Rice; and Habibi. He grew up in a rural farming community in Marathon, Wisconsin, world capital of ginseng.
