GM Daniel King publishes a variety of interesting chess materials on his YouTube channel PowerPlayChess, ranging from puzzles to book reviews.
On February 10th, he interviewed American grandmaster Sam Shankland about his work "Converting An Extra Pawn In Chess". According to Shankland himself, 80% of the writing process consisted of self-study, and this shines through. He gives a number of highly instructive examples, including about piece exchanges, creating weaknesses, and the position of the king in the endgame.Â

My guest in this week’s episode is an old friend of the New In Chess Podcast, Jacob Aagaard. Jacob is a man of many trades and it’s not easy to fully describe all his activities in the chess world without running the risk that you’re forgetting something. So, let’s try. Jacob is a grandmaster who occasionally still feels the lure of competitive chess, and he is a prolific and successful writer, who has authored more than twenty books.Besides a writer, Jacob is also a publisher of chess books, and a top coach who has worked with big names such as Boris Gelfand, Nodirbek Abdusattorov, Sam Shankland and many other prominent names that we know or names that are supposed to remain a secret.You may also know Jacob from the online Killer Chess Training courses and the Killer Chess Training camps he organizes in Spain.And as if this is not enough - and as this is the New In Chess Podcast - we should not forget to mention that Jacob is the owner and head of the New In Chess publishing group.

In this week’s episode of the New In Chess podcast, I talk to none other than Judit Polgar.  Of course, the 'Queen of Chess’ needs no introduction, but then that’s something I have said about many guests - before proceeding to introduce them anyway. Let’s stick to that routine, even if there is every reason to say that this guest really does not need an introduction.Judit Polgar is rightly seen as the greatest female chess player of all time. She not only topped the women’s world rankings for a quarter of a century – I repeat, a quarter of a century, that is 25 years - but she also is the only woman ever to make it to the overall world top 10. Think about it: over the course of her career, Judit defeated no fewer than 11 current or former World Champions in rapid or classical chess.Judit became a grandmaster at the age of 15 years and 4 months, breaking Bobby Fischer’s old record and becoming the youngest grandmaster in the world at the time.
