b'This week\\u2019s double episode features one more look back at the historic 2022 Chess Olympiad. We are joined by two different guests who\\xa0 just returned to their homes from Chennai. Our first guest is Lula Roberts, a 24 year-old popular Twitch streamer who got the chance to represent her country (Jersey) at the Women\\u2019s Olympiad. Lula retells her chess results and her many memorable moments at what she hopes will be her first Olympiad of many.\\xa0 Speaking of many Olympiads, our second guest is return guest and award winning author and historian, IM John Donaldson. John served as captain of the United States\\u2019 team for the 14th time, so he was able to draw on his vast knowledge of prior Olympiads to contextualize this one. In addition to discussing the Olympiad, John is a leading scholar of Bobby Fischer, so we discuss John\\u2019s latest Fischer\\xa0research and his upcoming projects later in the interview. It was a lot of fun to get two vastly different perspectives on the Olympiad, and I am already looking forward to the next one in 2024! \\n\\n\\n0:00- Intro, brief discussion of the results of the Olympiad\\n\\n4:00- Thanks to our presenting sponsors, Chessable.com, be sure to check out Grind like a Grandmaster, and Levon Aronian\\u2019s new course, along with the rest of their huge catalog of chess courses.\\xa0\\nhttps://www.chessable.com/courses/all/new/\\n\\n4:45- Lula Roberts joins the show!\\xa0\\n\\n5:00- How did the opportunity for Jersey and Lula to compete in the Olympiad present itself?\\xa0\\nMentioned: Jen Shahade\\u2019s book Chess Queens\\xa0\\n\\n8:00- Lula discusses the tournament itself, as well as how she spent time in between rounds\\xa0\\n\\n24:00- Did she like the team dynamic as opposed to individual tournaments?\\n\\n26:00- What has Lula\\u2019s approach to chess improvement been?\\xa0\\n\\n30:00- How did the Reykjavik Open compare to the Olympiad for Lula?\\xa0\\xa0\\n\\n37:00- Thanks to Lula Robert for joining the show!
