About the Episode

Everyone has a hobby. Some people spend their free time playing golf, other people knit scarves. Different strokes for different folks. But people that play chess? They’re built different. Big time chess player and diva, Bobby Fischer, is a great example of this.

This week on the pod, Sierra tries to classify classified ads while Colin mansplains Russia. You’ll hear our thoughts on sexy Russians, watered-down versions of former U.S. Presidents, and fresh suggestions on how to cheat at the game of chess.
