I used to play him and his dad many a time. Sean is a very decent fellow and made his father tremendously proud of him. His father was a boxer to and his uncle received a knighthood for it was his gym in Sheffield where the likes of Naseem Hamed trained.

Indeed, Sean talks about the boxing history of his family in our chat.

We're doing a Candidates Special next week and a Tony Miles Special probably in April.

Episode 6 reports on some unfortunate criminal activity at the 4NCL, and FIDE appearing to do a rendition of Sweet Caroline.

Episode 7 is a Candidates special!

Episode 8 is here, even in these circumstances. Despite the economy, despite life.

We've now started to put some bonus material up on our Twitch channel. Today brings a beginners' guide to Nepomniachtchi - Ding from today's Candidates.

Episode 9 is as irresponsible as ever. Includes us trying to make the Candidates into a Pairs at The Pig tournament.

Episode 10, already! Features donkeys, goats and toddlers.
