Ep. 23: The Chess Cheating Epidemic & More: Talking with FM Alex King

**Note: Alex King earned the FM title after this was recorded. The episode title has been updated but the original show notes are below.

This week I spoke with National Master Alex King who resides in Memphis, Tennessee. Alex is an active tournament player, teacher, and writer. His 6-part article series for Chess Life magazine on the Tarrasch Defense begins with the March 2022 issue. Alex is also an accomplished musician, and he composed and performed all the music in this episode. Some of our talking points include:

  • Chess improvement tips for amateurs
  • The prevalence of chess cheating
  • The relationship between music and chess
