Hi, BTB i am deeply apologetic for my inability to interview you on Wednesday night. I hope all is well with you and my absence didn't hurt your feelings. I want to reiterate that you are indeed my hero and I know that you will overcome any obstacles in your life and chess.

I understand that you just started playing chess nearly 9 months ago, but has ascertained a correspondence chess rating of roughly 1600. What do you think is that the main reason for your precipitious gain in that short of time?
Well the main reason is because I have high functioning autism which allows me to learn and memorise things quickly.
Too bad it hasn't allowed you to learn how to play chess when there's a clock ticking next to you.
Smh...
All of this time, effort, and energy you're putting in and you're just going to have to basically relearn the game if you want to be competitive OTB one day.

This was not a troll, contrary to what people believe. I was being geniune. I was NOT making fun of him or being facetious about anything directed at BTB. I was simply trying to portray how a sports/radio personality would have conducted the interview, you know, being superfluous and trying to get views. To reiterate I do think what he has done with his autism is something this community should embrace and is indeed commendable.

I hope people understand that the "humour" part was trying to get the "feel" of a live talk-in radio show, when indeed it is just a forum.

Thanks mate :) well done on your live standard rating as well :)
Thanks BTB and welcome back to the show. So, what did you do during our little hiatus from the air? I remember you telling you that your chess rating fell a little bit, but i can see that you got it back to 1600.
A viewer question: Can you find any improvements for black in this game?

Yeah I have been busy recording and making songs. My youth club for people on the autistic spectrum has its own recording studio and I have been working on songs. I have really enjoyed it. I got my rating up to 1600 after beating a USCF expert twice
Oh that is nice to hear, so any songs that can be bought on itunes
now. So, you beat a USCF expert wow really nicely done. I was wondering if you wouldn't mind posting the game and analyzing it for the viewer's once you have sometime.

I knew carlsen would win. I just did not expect so many draws and I thought anand would get 1 win over carlsen (after all he is defending his title)
Yes, I think many people on chess.com expected Anand to win the championship, but must be shocked that he didn't even win one game. So BTB, what short term chess goals or objectives do you have coming up that you want to accomplish?
Will it be Wesley So you beat, or someone else?
Well, that's disappointing, before you wanted to be better than Luke McShane.

I would like to be better than him and have a GM title but I think because I did not start chess at a young enough age I cannot become a GM.
If you think you can or if your think you cannot then you are probably right- Henry Ford. BTB, do not let doubt and despondency impair your vision to becoming a GM. BTB, I am sorry I got to now, but we can continue this interview probably on Sunday. Also, scottrf can interview you if you please.
Or 175 ECF.
and what rating are you on atm ?
