Then,\\xa0 as now, John is best known for his very popular Chess YouTube channel, and for being the co-founder of Chessable.com. \\xa0 John has seen the company and his following continue to grow rapidly in the past few years, and as you may have heard, Chessable merged with GM Magnus Carlsen\\u2019s Play Magnus company in September of 2019. John also has recently released a large-scale\\xa0 project, a Chessable video course , explaining the endgame classic, 100 Endgames You Must Know, and he even got to film a video testing the World Champion on the material from this vital chess book.\\xa0\\n\\nIn our conversation, John gave some behind-the-scenes details on all of these exciting events.
