Hey there, I hope you're doing well.
00:00:02.403 --> 00:00:08.115
This is a news update for you on several items for this podcast over the next couple of weeks.
00:00:08.115 --> 00:00:16.975
First, the most exciting news is that in a couple of days I'll be recording an interview with the legendary Grandmaster, Susan Polgar.
00:00:16.975 --> 00:00:19.344
I couldn't be more excited to share that with you.
00:00:19.344 --> 00:00:23.553
I'm still deciding on the release date for that, but it'll be in one or two weeks.
00:00:23.553 --> 00:00:31.242
Still deciding on the release date for that, but it'll be in one or two weeks Plus, and I know it's short notice, but you can submit a question for Susan Pulgar and I may select it for our interview.
00:00:31.663 --> 00:00:37.343
All you have to do is sign up for my Patreon and respond to the post that solicits questions for Susan.
00:00:37.343 --> 00:00:42.963
Of course, by being a member of my Patreon, you get many other benefits too, beyond just asking questions of my guests.
00:00:42.963 --> 00:00:45.548
But for this week that may be the biggest benefit.
00:00:45.548 --> 00:00:53.231
And just so you know, you'd have to join my Patreon and submit your question for Susan by Thursday, February 27th at 1pm Central.
00:00:53.231 --> 00:00:59.948
That's Thursday, February 27th at 1pm Central time, and the link to join my Patreon is in the show notes to this episode.
00:00:59.948 --> 00:01:01.171
So I hope you join.
00:01:01.171 --> 00:01:07.504
I'd love to get a question from you to ask Susan Also, because I'm spending a ton of time preparing for my talk with Susan.
00:01:08.085 --> 00:01:11.269
There won't be a regular episode this week, Sorry about that.
00:01:11.269 --> 00:01:13.930
I just want to do a really good job preparing for her interview.
00:01:13.930 --> 00:01:25.662
I'm reading an entire book of hers that she's about to release and there's just a lot that goes into it, so I'm trying to make that one extra special, one extra special.
00:01:25.662 --> 00:01:32.390
Finally, the last news I have to share and this is exciting, I think is that I'm going to start recording my interviews on video and there will be a YouTube channel where you can watch video clips from future episodes.
00:01:32.390 --> 00:01:36.602
This is a first for me in my podcast's history and I'm very excited about it.
00:01:36.784 --> 00:01:40.641
I'm also very nervous about being on camera all the time, but I think it'll be worth it.
00:01:40.641 --> 00:01:51.908
And it's still to be determined whether I'll make full video episodes available on the YouTube channel, but at the very least, there will be two to five minute video clips to watch from each episode.
00:01:51.908 --> 00:01:58.331
And, don't worry, I'll still be releasing regular audio episodes wherever you listen to your podcasts, so that won't change.
00:01:58.331 --> 00:02:00.801
That wraps up the news I have for you this week.
00:02:00.801 --> 00:02:02.926
While there's not a full episode today.
00:02:02.926 --> 00:02:07.114
There will be a very exciting one soon, in a week or two, with Susan Polgar.
00:02:07.114 --> 00:02:08.877
Thank you for listening to the show.
00:02:08.877 --> 00:02:12.331
I hope your chess journey is going great and I will talk to you soon.
