Ep. 121 Ben Johnson - Perpetual Chess Podcast Host (NM)

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with NM, podcaster, and author Ben Johnson. We reflected on his recent chess journey. But we spent most of the time talking about his new book: Perpetual Chess Improvement. We discussed a wide range of topics such as the process of writing, early reviews, reasons for writing a book, imposter syndrome, and my thoughts on the book. Ben provided a lot of insights about the book including why he focused on readability and breadth over depth. If you are interested in the book, this is a must listen.
