Rooked: The Cheaters' GambitEpisode 9: The LawsuitWe’re back with our regularly scheduled scandal, this time examining the legal implications of the Hans Niemann-Magnus Carlsen Sinquefield Cup anal beads cheating affair (say that 10 times fast). A half a billion dollar lawsuit, the Sherman antitrust act, tort law, jurisdictional requests for dismissal…this one has a lot of legal jargon. But we take you through all the twists and turns with not one, but TWO law professors to get to the bottom of exactly what happened (heh heh), speculate about NDAs, and talk about what this lawsuit means for the future of chess.

Rooked: The Cheaters' GambitEpisode 6: The PsychologyJust what exactly is the psychology of chess? Damned if we know, we’re not psychologists. But Julia Rios and JJ Lang of the chessfeels podcast do a great job of discussing exactly that, among other things…and we were so inspired by them that we decided to do our own episode on psychology (well...pseudo psychology is probably a better term for what we do in this episode, honestly.) Anyways, if you want to hear us talk about what a typical chess player might look like, and why they seem more prone than the average bear to madness (look...

Rooked: The Cheaters' GambitEpisode 5: The SportsmanshipWhat does good sportsmanship in chess look like? Does it actually matter whether its best players are good sports? Well, we think it does - and so do some other people like, oh, I don’t know, Magnus Carlsen (not sure if you’ve heard of him, but he’s kind of a big deal.) Plus our main guest for this episode, Bill Cole - aka The Mental Game Coach - thinks so, too. But, decide for yourself, I guess.

SexDie Midlife-Crisis: Gefangen zwischen Overdose-Dating und BumsfalleraSimone hat jahrelang als überzeugte Single-Frau gelebt, ist in ihren Dreißigern als "Berufsjugendliche" durchs Leben und von Affäre zu Affäre geschlittert.

Finally, the Chess scandal has a new chapter, and it is juicy.
