Happy 2022, everyone! I'm joined this week by Benjamin Portheault (@BenjiPortheault), a performance coach for mental athletes who has worked with chess players across a wide range of ratings -- from tournament players to someone (anonymous) who was trying to qualify for the Candidates. This was a lovely discussion that covered a bunch of topics, from the 2021 World Championship to sleep deprivation (!!!!). I'm grateful to Benji for coming on the show and hope to have him again!

I've opened a YouTube channel called 64: A Chess Channel -- click the link and subscribe! I have some amazing content coming out there this year, and will start putting my podcasts on there later this month. You can also follow me on Twitter and Twitch :-) thanks again for listening to this week's episode of 64!
