How Blitz Can Help, Time Management, & Trash-Talking w/ IM Greg Shahade

037 IM Greg Shahade always brings a good time.

His charisma and relaxed humor make for a dynamic, fun conversation in every interview he gives.

And this one is no different!

We cover a range of topics, including the difference between improving at chess versus trivia (it helps explain why chess is so difficult!), his spontaneous approach to life, and:

• Why blitz can improve your chess if you follow his two suggestions
• Time management advice for those who play too slow (and too fast!)
• Will he ever do chess boxing?
• Classic trash-talking segment against his recent rival, IM Lawrence Trent
