    Honestly one of my favorite things so far getting more into chess videos is all the little things including sneezing in the middle of speaking, forgetting your train of thought and not cutting anything out, etc. It just feels like there's so much more normalcy and I notice they're mostly way more laid back as opposed to making a video as perfect as it can possibly be. There's just something about that which I really like.

    Hey Levi, can you start puting what openings are used in each game in the timestamps again? I liked skipping around and watching the games that used openings I like. Love your stuff!

    Day 100: Of requesting Levy to cover opposite coloured bishop endgames.
    Especially when you have a slight material advantage of being up by two or three pawns against your opponent and you both have opposite coloured bishops as well.

    Teleport bread is from a promotional animation made by Valve for an update for the game Team Fortress 2. I don’t remember what it’s called but I’ll edit this comment when I look it up.
    Edit: It’s called expiration date.
    Edit 2: The joke is from a line a character called The Soldier says. Which is in the TeleportBread guy’s profile picture.

    I got really into chess recently, after a friend asked me to teach her the rules. I knew how the pieces moved since I was a kid, including castling and en passant, but that was it, just the basics. Your videos have really helped me learn to start thinking about the game differently. I still have a long way to go, but I play all the time now.
