120 Daniel Lona is interviewed by guest host Omar Mills, fellow club player, in the second part of a special episode celebrating The Chess Experience podcast's third anniversary.

Three years ago, Daniel Lona launched The Chess Experience with a simple yet unique mission: to create chess content by and for adult improvers - a rare thing in the chess world at that time.

In this episode, he discusses:

What makes chess "real"? Is a 3-minute blitz game fundamentally the same as a 5-hour classical battle?
Finding a balance between growing chess through Esports vs preserving traditional formats.
Daniel’s #1 chess wish (and all of his answers to the rapid-fire questions he asks his guests.)

PLUS: Get a chance to win Omar Mills' new Chessable course (with full video) this week: "Chess Destiny: Lessons from an Adult Improver and His Coach.”
