Chess Diva episode #8 is produced!

Hey there, it's Barbara!

Episode 8 was produced last week.
Lauren and I think this episode is our best yet ever, better
than the award winning episode 6!

The three surprises really made our
show awesome.

See our surprises:

1. Meet United States president's Barack Obama's classmate from Harvard University!
Really! No joke!

2. Watch Barbara juggle and unicycle at the same time! This
new way of focusing enabled her to win more chess games.
Unicyling and juggling at the same time is challenging, yet very fun!

3. Watch Musical chess! See how chess relates to music!
The chess squares are musical notes too! Listen to a song
on the chess board.

These three unique surprises are very interesting and fun to watch!


As usual, the first 10 minutes of the show is chess instruction.
Learn about the Scholar's and Smother checkmates! Also, visit two California chess clubs.

Lauren should post the episode up hopefully next week, so please be patient.

Get ready for Episode #8

Hi everyone!
Our next episode of "Chess Diva" is coming up soon!!

In episode #8, there will be a lot of video clips and special guests.
I'm currently editing the video footage right now.

There will a lot of surprises on this episode.

Episode #8

Hi everybody!
We have been very busy!!
Barbara and I are also getting footage for episode #8.
If you have any suggestions or new ideas for this episode, please let us know!
A couple days ago for volunteer community service, I taught a blind person how to play chess.
I also got to play against other people too.
It was a very rewarding experience!

Happy Holidays and episode #8 update

Barbara and I wish you a very happy and safe holiday!

A couple days ago, we filmed at the Burlingame Chess Club for episode #8.
It was a great success! We interviewed club members and filmed players focusing on their game.

We will also have another video clip in this episode regarding chess and music.

If you have any more ideas for episode #8, feel free to e-mail us!

The actual production of the show will take place in March 2009.

Happy Thanksgiving!

We wish you a great Thanksgiving holiday! Hope you play a lot of chess during the holidays!
