Viswanathan Anand | Long Story Short with Leslie Wilcox

Leslie Wilcox talks with Viswanathan "Vishy" Anand, five-time reigning world chess champion. Anand's mother introduced him to the game when he was six years old, and at age 18, he became India's first chess grandmaster. Now in his forties, an age considered past a chess player's prime, Anand talks about the challenges age presents and how he overcomes them. Also, a story Anand tells about traveling to a chess championship reveals how in life, like in chess, there is more than one way to win.

Poor people who don't really play chess and don't really know what the interesting questions are.

I think she did a good job. She framed her questions in a manner that they appeal not only to chessplayers audience but also to non-chessplayers.

Of course, you're 'better' than everybody. You're just not the one giving the interview.
