b'This week on Perpetual Chess we are joined by award winning chess author and renowned trainer, GM Jacob Aagaard. It has been more than 2 years since our last long-form interview, and we had tons of topics to cover. We discussed topics including the rise of the top young talents in the chess world, potential World Championship format chances, and chess business news.\\xa0There was also\\xa0plenty of talk about chess training and improvement. Our talk about improvement was particularly focused on endgames, because Jacob has recently released an ambitious and highly informative new book, A Matter of Endgame Technique. This book is nearly 900 pages in length and is packed with practical\\xa0tips and illustrations of moments at which Grandmasters have gone wrong in endgames. Although Perpetual Chess is an audio only format, we tried to extract a few lessons that listeners can apply to their own games. GM Aagaard is never hesitant to share his opinions, and I always learn a lot from speaking with him. You can find timestamps of the topics discussed, as well as links for topics referenced below.\\xa0\\n\\n\\n0:01-\\xa0\\nPerpetual Chess Link Fest Sign Up-\\nhttps://benjohnson.substack.com/\\nGM Jacob Aagaard Blog post about his experience working with GM Hans Niemann\\xa0\\nhttps://forum.killerchesstraining.com/t/paranoia-and-insanity-by-jacob-aagaard/856\\n0:02- Jacob discusses the \\u201ctidal wave\\u201d of young chess talents emerging from India and elsewhere.
