Dojo Talks Doggers

According to my records, I've had Youtube's ChessDojo channel on the short list for monthly featured video a total of 16 times since 2021. After four years the channel finally gets the recognition it deserves.


The Chess Revolution w/ Peter Doggers | Dojo Talks (1:00:31) • '[Published on] Apr 3, 2025'

The description said,

IM Kostya Kavutskiy, IM David Pruess, and GM Jesse Kraai talk about the book The Chess Revolution with guest journalist Peter Doggers on today's episode of Dojo Talks, the ChessDojo podcast!

For an earlier post mentioning the same book, see World Championship Yahoos 2024 (November 2024). There I highlighted an introduction to the book by Doggers and quoted him saying,

2024-11-19: The Chess Revolution: Understanding The Power Of An Ancient Game In The Digital Age (chess.com; PeterDoggers) [...] It is for chess fans but definitely also for non-chess playing readers. I am super excited that almost two years after starting this project, the book hit book stores in October. Let me tell you more about it and the writing process.'

The book is currently no.16 on Amazon's list of best sellers for chess, just behind 'Dinosaur Bingo' (?!). No.1 on the list is currently 'Check & Mate' by Ali Hazelwood: 'Life's moving pieces bring rival chess players together in a match for the heart.' I'm sure I would enjoy the Doggers book more than the Hazelwood book.
