The Chesspit Podcast

Episode 41 is a Queen's Gambit special, of sorts. We review (without spoilers!) the Netflix series, and do our best to see it through non-chess eyes. This week's quiz also celebrates Beth Harmon.

There's also stuff on chess and politics, with particular reference to leading players being public-facing just like any other sport. And can any of the guys pronounce Arpad Elo's hometown?

Episode 42 answers the following questions that nobody asked:

- Who is the Bobby Charlton of chess?
- Which actor would play Magnus Carlsen in a biopic?
- Which chess player shares their name with a Baywatch featured extra?.

Enjoy!
