i never tire of john’s positive attitude, even when he’s facing adversity. for me that’s as instructional and inspiring as any chess content. i hope to see you more in 2025. please don’t make me start twitch, i have enough distractions…
5:21 Aw cmon John we love the Scandi! It’s the closest I’ll get to seeing you play the Caro-Kann. Unless you decide to pick it up, whaddya say, new year, new you? In all seriousness, love to see you back, thanks for the video!
Happy new year, John! Thanks for the new “clock” video! I’ve had a whole year away from chess now, going down other paths, and this is a good welcome back (despite the rust). Have fun in Arizona!
Just started watching your videos and trying to improve my chess game. Have loved chess since a kid but never really understood how to play at a more serious level. Appreciate your content very much. Already making big strides. Happy New Year!
Thanks for all the great content, John! I’ve been a follower for as long as you’ve been posting (newmanana, chess_and_beers). Happy new year and i cant wait to check out the Scandi course when you release it
Glad to hear that you are done with the Scandinavian course. Would you say that it will come out this month (in January)? Also, have you found a platform to put the course, like Teachable?
This man along with Agadmtor got me into chess, in the 2016’s.. huge impact on my chess journey, thanks John. Missed your content, hope you’ve been well sir. Think the Vikings will do well in the playoffs?
Aww fantastic to hear - glad you've been involved in this awesome game for a number of years now. And you know, without any pretense of jinxing them, I *do* think the Vikings can get it done this year. What say you?
It comes down to can Sam Darnold be composed and compete at a high level, the Vikings have all the tools to make it far in the playoffs. I’m rooting for the Lions personally, but I’d be rooting for the Vikings otherwise.
John, I have it on good authority that if you want to be a chess improver, you should focus on playing longer games (15+10), not just pwning noobs on stream in lichess bullet arenas :)
John i like your content like how using the clock to pressure the opponent, but please make short and sweet chessable courses free again without the need of pro membership

Haven't nailed down the platform or release date yet, but first galf of 2025 for sure (wide range, I know :)). Appreciate your interest and patience!
Happy New Year John! Greetings from Australia.
Cheers! Happy New Year to you as well - appreciate you tuning in from Australia
Happy New Year, JB!
Thanks Tom - happy New Year, buddy!!
Rustiness is a real thing! A little practice and training and John'll be back in form in no time.
Somehow John gets more good looking every time he returns from a RUclips sabbatical.
Awww thanks 😊
Yes! Happy New Year!
Cheers!!
Happy New Year! More Titled Tuesdays and maybe some Banter Blitz next year. :)

Audio sounds a bit tinny. Probably have to adjust something. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching! Yeah noticed that as well - I think a setting got messed up on this recording
Missed you!
Cheers! Glad to be back
To win at Chess, I use the clock as a weapon LITERALLY.
Works like a charm every f'in time! I think I can even take on Magnus. 😈
miss your YT vids. Hope you've been doing well. HNY.
Thanks for watching. Happy New Year!

I concur!! 😊
Thanks for another one! Catch ya in 2025!
Cheers! Happy New Year to you as well
Imagine Magnus having such a session. He would've deleted his RUclips channel.
Damn, I forgot JB existed, my bad
John i like your content like how using the clock to pressure the opponent, but please make short and sweet chessable courses free again without the need of pro membership

Decide man,or you will be active on youtube or turn of your channel,what are you doing right now is very stupid...
