#26 - Want big chess improvements? Add this simple thing to your chess training

Should we be studying classic chess games? Al & Joe discuss this question and get expert input as usual from NM Jesse Cohen, owner of, and chess coach at Summit Chess.  But first… Al & Joe bring us up to speed on their chess week, giving updates on the Average Joes Chess Club and the progress of the champions that they are training.  There’s an update in the chess challenges set in episode 25, where Al had to join a dating app and engage potential chess suitors in sexy chess chat; and Joe had to apply for jobs whilst highlighting his love of chess. New challenges are set and the meaning of pegging is clarified. Al reads out a  listener's email  - someone who kindly offers to help Joe with his underpant situation. Another listener's question is also addressed - if you know the answer or want to ask next week’s question  then please email us at [email protected] and let us know. There’s a fundraising appeal for some sexy chess panties for Joe and then finally the two average Joes tell us what they have been exceptionally loving this week.  We rely on your continued support to make this podcast happen.
