Ep. 11 - GM Ben Finegold & Karen Boyd

The streaming duo Ben & Karen come into The Chess Lounge with two big intentions: roasting the chess world and getting canceled. Ok, that's just the bonus. Ben Finegold is a Grandmaster with a depth of wisdom and a dry humor with his wife Karen brings a fun balance to their streams. In this episode we talk about a wide range of topics from Ben & Karen's early chess life, playing poker and the crossover between the games, what it was like in the 80s, Hans Niemann, Kramnik going crazy, different play styles, how to get bad at chess and more.
