    I got really into chess recently, after a friend asked me to teach her the rules. I knew how the pieces moved since I was a kid, including castling and en passant, but that was it, just the basics. Your videos have really helped me learn to start thinking about the game differently. I still have a long way to go, but I play all the time now.

      Does it though? Cause knight f3. Then he loses the knight but h4 is available and he can run away with the queen. Maybe I’m missing something

    Honestly one of my favorite things so far getting more into chess videos is all the little things including sneezing in the middle of speaking, forgetting your train of thought and not cutting anything out, etc. It just feels like there's so much more normalcy and I notice they're mostly way more laid back as opposed to making a video as perfect as it can possibly be. There's just something about that which I really like.
