This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke to Brad. He has made tremendous improvement rising from 1550 to 1964 in 3 years! We talked about a variety of topics such as coaching, tournaments, and handling bad tournaments. We talked about the value of tactics training and playing regularly. Brad also suggested changing openings occasionally to learn new positions.

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke to Brian. We talked about his rapid rise from 700-1100 USCF in 4 months. He has been playing the role of the underrated kid at age 52! Brian is a big fan of the Chess Dojo, so, in many ways, this was an unpaid advertisement for their wonderful program. Brian talked a lot about the value of playing long OTB board. His rating was not improving from his online rapid games. But discovering the full immersion of a 90 minute game has allowed him to unlock new depths in his games.

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke to Xander. He’s gained 700 points over the last year and a half. We talked about getting into tournaments, what he’s studied, and how math has helped his chess. Lately, Xander has made a big jump by memorizing games with attacking motifs. He has also been working on 100 Tactical Patterns You Must Know.

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke to Derek. He’s a 50’s chess player who has recently returned to the game after a 22 year hiatus. We talked a lot about what he is getting out of chess, and what his expectations are. We also chatted about his international travels with chess taking him to Scotland and the Reykjavik Open. Derek has won several tournaments, and we discussed the decision to play up or not. This is a great interview for anyone thinking about playing chess as we move on in years.

This week on Chess Journeys, it’s just me. I talked about a variety of topics such as why I came back to chess, what keeps me going, and am I happy with my decision to come back. I also discussed what I would change about my last 2 years in chess, resources that I’ve discovered in the last year, and some of my favorite chess resources.

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Trenton. He’s a college student looking to juggle life and chess improvement. Even though Trenton hasn’t been playing for long (2 years) he dropped quite a few gems in this episode. He talked about the challenge of losing to kids in tournaments, avoiding burnout, learning openings, and the value of a chess community.

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Kevin. He’s a new dad, film-maker, and writer trying to improve at chess. We had a great chat about using time wisely, how to analyze rapid games, the value of OTB chess, and the importance of identifying your goals in chess. We also discussed resources Kevin used to quickly rise to 1600 such as John Bartholomew’s Youtube series, Simple Chess, Jeremy Silman, and playing a lot of chess. It was a wonderful chat and be sure to check out Kevin’s substack Good Moves.

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Jay and Nicole Garrison about tactics. We went long discussing issues such as the importance of tactics, how to do them, and our favorite resources. We also included mini reviews of two recent resources: 100 Tactical Patterns You Must Know and my Chessable course The Chess Journeys Tactics Workbook. I think this is a must listen for anyone wrestling with the question how much should I focus on tactics?

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with National Master Craig Clawitter. The majority of the episode was spent taking lessons from kid chess players and applying them to adults. The biggest piece of advice from Craig is to stop putting pressure on ourselves to reach rating goals or other types of pressure. Most kids just play knowing that eventually they will get better. Failure is a normal part of childhood, and they take that approach to chess. We also discussed my new Chessable course: Chess Journeys Tactics Workbook: Turning Knowledge Into Skill. This is a great episode for the adult improver looking for some new ideas to help their process.

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Aidan from Don’t Move Until You See It. We talked about visualization, memory work, narrative vs. visual memories, aphantasia, and other related issues. Aidan took me through a sample blindfold exercise to demonstrate how different brains worked. We ended with an examination of my recent slump and focus on basic tactics. This episode is packed with helpful advice regarding our brains and how to unlock their full potential!

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Emily Plays Chess. Emily hasn’t been playing chess long, but she is all in! We talked about her improvement journey from discovering chess, streaming, tournaments, and resources. Emily discussed the challenges of balancing the learning opportunities with the stress of big tournaments. She also highlighted the social aspects of chess as an important part of her journey. She attributes her rapid climb from 300-1300 rapid to coaching, strategy work, playing rapid games, and most of all consistency.

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with David. We talked a lot about his journey into chess and having fun with the game. We also discussed his first tournament and his recent success in tournaments. David talked about his transition into a more serious chess player and resources such as Silman, Naroditsky, and The Butcher. David also laid out the process for starting a club, which sounds quite doable for anyone out there without a club to play at. David also discussed coaching and learning how to study chess. It was a great conversation with a lower rated adult looking to improve and enjoy the process!

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Rob. He’s trying to juggle career, family, and chess improvement. We discussed his recent rapid success, reaching 1600, and where to go next. Rob has decided to focus on studying for a few months to outline a process that will help him improve more. He’s been focused on Polgar’s mate in 2 puzzles, Calculation: A Complete Guide for Tournament Players, and Youtube videos. Rob is especially impressed by Daniel Naroditsky’s speed run series. Recently Rob started going to a chess club, and we reflected on the transition to 3d chess and interacting with actual people.

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Shaun. He’s an ICU nurse trying to juggle a demanding career with chess improvement. We discussed a wide range of topics such as his study plan, chess bootcamps, living in St. Louis and Charlotte, and chess anxiety. Most notable is Shaun’s emphasis on the positive aspects of chess. He told many stories about his encounters with chess personalities. This is a fun and uplifting interview.

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Mike. He’s a newer chess improver that has made quite a bit of progress in a short time. He talked about the importance of tactics. Mike emphasized doing them despite not enjoying them. To him they are simply essential building blocks for a successful chess player. Mike also discussed the positive impact of changing his black opening. It forced him out of his comfort zone (that was losing) and helped him play chess more aggressively. We also discussed his tournament experience and some tips for playing in your first weekend event.

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Tony. He’s a busy family man and co-founder of the Chess Sharkz. In addition to constant streaming, Tony squeezes in tactics whenever possible. We discussed the claim that everyone under 2200 should be focusing on tactics, Tony’s career in chess, his move to Charlotte, and why he plays so many Chess tournaments. We also talked about tournament preparation and why it’s so important to play in them.

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Deven. We talked about his journey into chess as an adult. He quickly rose to 1200, but got stuck there for a while. We discussed the challenges of finding a coach that works for you, and his approach to chess improvement. Deven credits much of his rise from 1200 - 1600 to his coach, analyzing games, tactics, and working on endgames. It was a fun discussion about handling lengthy plateaus and difficult tournaments.

This week on Chess Journeys, friend of the show Jay Garrison hosted my recap of 2024. We examined the highs and lows of the year, including massive rating loss and winning the club championship (U1700). We discussed goals, study plans, and results. We also brainstormed new ideas for an adult chess tournament scene like the scholastic one. In short, we covered the entire year with all the ups and downs. It was fun for me to reflect on the year, and I hope you enjoy it as well.
