The END of the Hans Niemann Controversy?

What does Danny Rensch regret about the Hans Niemann controversy? Danny joins Chess with Mustreader to talk about what happened between Hans, Magnus Carlsen, and Chess.com. They discuss why Magnus said he felt gaslit by Chess.com, which parts of Hans’s account Danny disputes, and what he wishes he’d done differently. Danny also talks openly about how the situation affected him, why he was unhappy with Netflix’s Untold: Chess Mates, and what he thinks the film left out. They cover Magnus’s relationship with Take Take Take, why Danny dislikes Reddit, the future of chess, and Chess.com’s ban of Brandon Jacobson (Viih_Sou). And of course, the podcast finishes with a blitz game — don’t miss it!
