    Thanks for the update, Ben. Sad to see you go. You have been my virtual coach for a number of years now. I remember going all the way back to the goldfish method videos, roosters running around in the background, kittens climbing over you, a Perpetual Chess interview with Ben Johnson, and a handful of one-on-one lessons. You have taught me a ton and I've been thoroughly entertained. You've always been kind and responsive to my comments and occasional e-mails. I truly appreciate you. All the best on the next endeavor. Hope to see you continue to post videos with less frequency!

    Hey Ben, I've been a sub for almost three years now. You've helped me get to 1000, especially your advise to just slow down and do a sanity check. I'll miss you.

    Thank you chess boot camp legend. I can finally hit 1000 Elo. When that day comes I’ll pour a drink out for you in your honour - for all those late nights grinding away.

    Just a big thankyou from a subscriber. It’s a great shame as most RUclipsr chess players are so egotistic. I found your videos so helpful and relatable. I would only say that I also had a lot of life changes, but always found time for hobbies that I loved. The very best of luck. 👍👏👏👏

    I agree with you about the addiction to online chess, especially blitz and bullet when you only want to play a few games but end up playing for hours. I have recognised that in me so now only play 15+10 and daily as always regret spending that long after. Don't know if its dopamine release (you probably know better given your knowledge about this stuff) but imagine it is similar to video game and gambling addictions.
    Also check out the 'chessfeels podcast episode 2: this is your brain on blitz', would be interested to hear you thoughts

    Will the Chess Boot Camp continue to exist with the zoom sessions? Are you still going to be one of the leaders of the zoom group? And the files of past videos stored there and the woodpecker method and help sections?

    95% dark chocolate bars are healthier than the 100% per a nurse's tip. The blood sugar levels are lower, not sure why but kind a odd about the twist, less is more!

    Well brother… At the end of the day some income has to be made. Very understandable that you’ll be making less chess content. Are your plans of making content on substack still on?
