• Ep. 190 Kevin (1600 USCF)

  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.Kevin’s Substack Good Moves:https://makegoodmoves.substack.com/My Chessable Course!https://www.chessable.com/chess-journeys-tactics-workbook-turning-knowledge-into-skill/course/268850/Chessnut Link/Code: Code - KEVINSCULLhttps://www.chessnutech.com?sca_ref=7643464.HueBIKWTYEGet 20% off GM Noël Studer's courses with Coupon chessjourneys20Beginner Chess Mastery for players below 1200 Chesscom / 1400 Lichess -> https://courses.nextlevelchess.blog/courses/beginner-chess-mastery?ref=04f5d8Next Level Training for anyone trying to train better and more efficiently -> https://courses.nextlevelchess.blog/courses/next-level-training?ref=04f5d8Use this link to purchase Next Level Chess: https://courses.nextlevelchess.blog/courses/next-level-training?ref=04f5d8My Road to 2200 Youtube series: https://youtu.be/BzKYDt5oBU8Be sure to check out the Chess Journeys Merch Store!

• Ep. 189 Tactics Talk w/ Jay Garrison

  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?Chess in the Queen City: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lBr6wOImJEMy Chessable Course!https://www.chessable.com/chess-journeys-tactics-workbook-turning-knowledge-into-skill/course/268850/Chessnut Link/Code: Code - KEVINSCULLhttps://www.chessnutech.com?sca_ref=7643464.HueBIKWTYEGet 20% off GM Noël Studer's courses with Coupon chessjourneys20Beginner Chess Mastery for players below 1200 Chesscom / 1400 Lichess -> https://courses.nextlevelchess.blog/courses/beginner-chess-mastery?ref=04f5d8Next Level Training for anyone trying to train better and more efficiently -> https://courses.nextlevelchess.blog/courses/next-level-training?ref=04f5d8Use this link to purchase Next Level Chess: https://courses.nextlevelchess.blog/courses/next-level-training?ref=04f5d8My Road to 2200 Youtube series: https://youtu.be/BzKYDt5oBU8Be sure to check out the Chess Journeys Merch Store!

• Ep. 188 NM Craig (ChessToImpress)

  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.NM/OLM Craig is NMChessToImpress on http://chess.com, instagram and YouTube. You can find all of his links: https://linktr.ee/ChessToImpress To book an online lesson: https://nmcraigclawitter.weebly.com/book-a-lesson.html… New students get 20% off for their 1st lesson!Chessnut Link/Code: Code - KEVINSCULLhttps://www.chessnutech.com?sca_ref=7643464.HueBIKWTYEGet 20% off GM Noël Studer's courses with Coupon chessjourneys20Beginner Chess Mastery for players below 1200 Chesscom / 1400 Lichess -> https://courses.nextlevelchess.blog/courses/beginner-chess-mastery?ref=04f5d8Next Level Training for anyone trying to train better and more efficiently -> https://courses.nextlevelchess.blog/courses/next-level-training?ref=04f5d8Use this link to purchase Next Level Chess: https://courses.nextlevelchess.blog/courses/next-level-training?ref=04f5d8My Road to 2200 Youtube series: https://youtu.be/BzKYDt5oBU8Be sure to check out the Chess Journeys Merch Store!

• Ep. 187 Aidan - Don’t Move Until You See it

  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!Aidan’s website: https://dontmoveuntilyousee.it/Chessnut Link/Code: Code - KEVINSCULLhttps://www.chessnutech.com?sca_ref=7643464.HueBIKWTYEGet 20% off GM Noël Studer's courses with Coupon chessjourneys20Beginner Chess Mastery for players below 1200 Chesscom / 1400 Lichess -> https://courses.nextlevelchess.blog/courses/beginner-chess-mastery?ref=04f5d8Next Level Training for anyone trying to train better and more efficiently -> https://courses.nextlevelchess.blog/courses/next-level-training?ref=04f5d8Use this link to purchase Next Level Chess: https://courses.nextlevelchess.blog/courses/next-level-training?ref=04f5d8My Road to 2200 Youtube series: https://youtu.be/BzKYDt5oBU8Be sure to check out the Chess Journeys Merch Store!
