"Now there may be a road to equality, but it really is narrow. And definitely more Naro than Ditsky." - Daniel Naroditsky, Round 14 (or 13?) of the 2024 Candidates
Danya openly said Gukesh had higher chances to win the candidates on the reddit. He is the new chess prophet.

Naroditsky and Howell are BY FAR the two best chess commentators in the world today. A perfect blend of humor, good-naturedness, insight, likability and passion for the game. While they're incredibly skilled at chess, they never talk down to the audience. And even after you've spent several hours in their company, it never gets old. We're very very lucky to have them both.

We ABSOLUTELY need part 2 & 3. Thank you so much fellas for the conversation
Thank you for publishing this great discussion, I would love to see a part 2 with Naroditsky!
Interesting how one tournament changed the narrative for Gukesh. 32:03 Danya is saying Gukesh rarely has massive failures. Really? He dumped 40 elo points end of the last year trying to win an event in order to qualify for Candidates. 🤣🤣 He is a guy take risks, burns bridges to go for wins, goes on 8/8 in olympiad and doesn't takes a draw which would have ensured team gold and loses, youngest to 2750, GM at 12. You don't become these by being solid. This candidates was exception and being at 2730-2750 level for a year and half must have helped him. Interesting how narrative is being copy pasted.

Exactly and even Vishy said that Gukesh of the indian players that were going to play the cnadidates he was the most volatile. Now of course this tournament could be the turning point and he might become mega solid, but we shall see.
@srb7683

Yeah the point Danya seems to have missed is that Gukesh has been a streak player - he goes on small winning streaks and big winning streaks and he is only now beginning to stabilize with age and experience.
@shrinivas105

Dude that is because he doesn't like draws... Games he lost were either in time pressure or he was over pressing.... He goes for the kill...if he had decided to take draws, he would have stayed there on top...

Gukesh eventually will become like every top player unfortunately but that's the only way to stay at the top

Amazing, can’t wait for part 2 :)
Great interview!
Great interview From both the host and the guest! Can't wait till part 2
Fantastic podcast! You did a great job of asking good questions and letting Naroditsky give detailed answers without interrupting or rushing him. I will make sure to watch the other episodes, and hope to see more in the future!
Loved this podcast, looking forward to episode 2!
Amazing interview waiting for part 2 😊
Such a wholesome podcast. Learnt a lot chesswise you could say😏
I would love to see another episode, great podcast and always nice to hear Naroditsky's insights
Danya is superb to listen to - him & Hess make it a nice combo of insight and energy and makes me want to watch more of the "sport" with their commentary on. Thank you for uploading this, man!

I have started watching all the chess experts on KZread only in the last couple of weeks . I have to say this Daniel Nariditsky is a great communicator. He is the best commentator I have heard. Chess needs people like him as much as it needs champion players.

New sub -- great work! Looking forward to many more
I enjoyed the interview. nicely done
Yes, full strength Ding is a piece of Tungsten with melting point around 3600 degree Celsius. Let's see if my countryman Gukesh can produce that much temperature on the board.
Great pod man
fantastic episode, one of my favorite podcasts ever
i definetly need a second part of this
Great Podcast. Love your content especially your video explaining how Gukesh's centipawn loss was around 5 in the second half. It was a point not made by anyone. Kudos!!!
Waiting for that next vid!
would absolutely watch part 2
Lovely podcast, great questions and wholesome guests 😊
Bump for part 2 for sure!
Definitely adding my comment because I want a part 2! Fantastic podcast!

Would love a second part!
Always love listening to Danya share his insights
Mustreader is an amazingly cool surname
Great guest, really good topics
danya is a legenddd . , awesome content man keep up
This was SO interesting!!!
Such a great podcast 👏
Would be amazing to listen to Danial for the second, third time for sure. He is one of the best persons in the chess world :) Always positive and kind
A interview with Danya talking about the 70 games blitz match against the gm who cheated against him would be really nice for part 2. That was so strange
great podcast!
I absolutely love to hear from Naroditsky everytime he is on some podcast. Funny down to earth guy with tremendous knowledge. I would love to hear him speak on topics of chess improvement. Especially I would love to hear tips on how to improve as adult improver at online chess when you do not have 3h+ to dump in online blitz on daily basis. Also I did get the idea that lichess vs chesscom debate could be a longer one. Subscribe and waiting for part two!
what a amazing podcast 🙏
Maybe Danya's not a podcast person, but it is an absolute pleasure to listen to him. His openness, joy an willingness to share his thoughts make him one of my favourite chess personalities. Thank you folks for the awesome episode. I'm hoping for the ep 2. :)
Danya's analysis on all things chess is awesome!
Part 2 would be great!
Great to listen to Danya.
Danya and Hess, the GOATs of Chess Commentary.
We want Naroditsky chessable courses asap!!! His speed runs are great. Make em a chessable course.
Great job to both! Leko and Danya are my favorite commentators
Даня - Душка. Спасибо за интервью
Great interview with Daaaaaaanya!
Episode 2 & 3 please! ☀ Danya, you are my favorite commentator, it really brightens my day when I listen to you! Your passion for chess and your kind nature are very inspiring. You always apologize for your 'rambling', but indeed most of us would like to listen much longer to what you have to say (or write) on any subject. You express yourself so beautifully, I learn new words and expressions very often while listening to you (I even have a file where I write down what I love). And never restrain yourself with puns, stuff like 'more naro than a ditsky' is pure gold. I wish you all the best in your journey to the top of blitz! Rooting for you always🎉 Thanks Greg for organizing this episode, we indeed do learn a lot, especially with the game at the end! And the apparition of the kitten was just the cherry on top! 🐈 such a cutie, I could look at her/him? for hours 😻😻
Great analysis by Danya about the differences between Blitz and Classical.
great ep
great episode
We need part 2!
That's what I see value in. Thank you very much for this.
Daniel and chess network have fostered my love for the game
Danya is amazing. Both his speedrun and also commentry. Especially with Hess.
Danya, please keep ranting, we love it, and we love you!
Nice interview.
part 2 waiting
It would be great to take up Danya's offer for a second or third podcast.
Insightful video
Chess never gets boring, not just because of developments on the board but also because of all the different people who are playing
Part 2 would be awesome, going to need to see the kitten again
Need as many episodes as you guys can make.
It all makes sense that Gukesh had some time management problems considering that he doesn't play blitz.
Responding for part two
Also, love the format and the "rambling"
commenting for the 2nd podcast !
So cool to see that blitz game at the end and completely winning for a moment! The competitive realisation, maybe 45s time Odds next time 😋
I'll write a thousand comments myself if I have to. Great episode, I look forward for a part 2.
Danya always has well thought-out opinions
ill follow ur podcast
The actual potential of these Candidates' players are complex numbers like 1+ i and 100+200i. You can't say which one is greater or which one is less.
waitin for pt. 2
What a great episode hope it gets to 1000 comments soon !
Commenting for 2nd part
Another comment on the road to 1000 praying for episode 2! Great episode :)
19:20 This kind of thing happened with Fabi in the crucial game vs Nepo in the final round as well. Fabi thought for only about 2 minutes and played Ka2 on move 41, ceding the advantage he had built up. Considering this move came right after he had played a series of quick moves to make the time control, he likely hadn't calmed down and calculated accurately like one should on move 41.

I think this is a different thing, since realizing there’s a difference between Ka2 and Ka1 is extremely difficult even with ample time to think
