L2C 028: Our Chess Inspirations and Aspirations

With the upcoming 2026 Candidates Tournament that will decide who will compete against Gukesh to win the Chess World Championship later this year, we thought we would go into some of the players that we find to be inspirational to our games, some of the playing styles we want to have/wish we had etc.

And don't forget to enter your team selection into our Fantasy Chess League for the upcoming Candidates tournament. The rules are posted on our social media on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube.

Please let us know if you are going to try this and please please let us know if you do and how it goes. We would love to hear all about it.

PS Bill wants to do a way off topic podcast episode based on music and can "weakly" tie it to chess background music ideas. Let us know if there is any interest in this.

Did we get something wrong? Were we remiss in not asking a question or discuss and area you are interested in?

Let us know at [email protected] If you have any thoughts, topics and/or guest ideas, or solutions, please let us know.

Welcome to the board.

We hope you enjoy the show!
