The Bad Chess Podcast

The Bad Chess Podcast

As the current reigning and defending 3rd worst chess streamer, I thought it was only fitting to do a chess podcast that is so bad that it has nothing to do with chess! Join us each week as we hang with writers, actors, comedians, musicians, and pro athletes. What makes our show different than all the other content in this category? We add a d20 and make our guests roll a knowledge check before they answer questions. If the roll is too low, who knows what may come out of their mouths!
