3. The Chess Experience
Follow Play
Website Apple Spotify
Chess improvement as an adult is harder than it should be. Plus, the journey can sometimes feel too stressful and serious. This show aims to fix that by 1) interviewing experts who can offer clarity on the best ways to improve; and 2) giving you a heap of fun with 'chess entertainment' shows that discuss chess culture, events, movies, etc. Most episodes feature a guest, but sometimes I'll do a solo show on a topic. This is all brought to you by me, Daniel Lona. I'm a dedicated chess amateur and the owner of Adult Chess Academy.MORE Producer/Network Daniel Lona
