NO PAWN INTENDED PODCAST ON MARCH 20 AT 8:00 PM

 Watch Jesse Buss and Matt Jensen in Episode 11 in their No Pawn Intended Podcast on March 20 at 8 PM. Jesse and Matt of ChessGoals fame have started a podcast that I am sure you will enjoy. I have watched all of them with great delight. Tomorrow’s episode features James Fazzolari, the author of two ChessGoals courses: The Nimzo-Indian and the Queen’s Indian Defenses. These are great courses that are guaranteed to improve your chess.
