It is a good interview but it's kind of long.
I made it through about 20 minutes...
Maybe this will help people find parts of interest:
Recorded on January 31, 2024 Featuring guest co-host FM Nate Solon With talk of online cheating recently dominating chess conversations, Chess.com CEO and co-founder Erik Allebest joined me (and guest co-host FM Nate Solon) to discuss the issue at length. While Erik acknowledges that chess cheating is an existential threat to the game, the research of his Chess.com team suggests that people overestimate the frequency of online cheating occurrences.
Erik also discussed Chess.com’s current and forthcoming anti-cheat measures, their policy regarding not naming suspected cheaters, and Erik’s thoughts on some recent headline-grabbing comments by GM Fabiano Caruana.
We also covered a lot of topics unrelated to online cheating, including The Magnus-Hikaru match that fell through last year, the closures of Chess24 and the Pro Chess League, Chess.com’s relationship with FIDE, and Erik’s reflections on the Niemann-Carlsen story. As Erik discussed, there will still be a lot more information coming out about that story in a forthcoming Netflix documentary. I appreciate Erik’s willingness to speak so openly about so many issues and think that you will learn a lot from the conversation.

This is actually a good interview with lots of interesting anecdotes about cheating in chess. Even a Netflix documentary about the cheating scandal coming soon? 👀
Also a specific question - 56:00 Erik mentions Sam Sevian as a possible interview on the cheating documentary, mentioning the King decapitation story was "swept under the rug." Is there more to that story than what we know? Erik seems to be inferring that there is more to that story.Â
