Joe and Al quiz chess coach NM Jesse Cohen on ways to gain a psychological advantage in chess both over the board and online. Should we be using mind games to gain advantages in chess or should we just rely on chess skill? Can the Average Joes think of ways to get into the opponent's head.

Joe talks way too much about how last week's chess challenge has affected his scrotal area. Al gets his chess artwork appraised by a pro and is shocked to hear the final valuation. Al sets the Joes a new challenge that could lead to some competitive chess training.

Joe and Al talk about their week outside of chess and have a quick chat about the chess World Cup Final results. 

Then finally, it’s time to find out what it is that the Average Joes have been exceptionally loving during the week.
