    more content like this, please 😀

    Trying to buy the book, the link you gave seems very fishy. When I follow the link on the page to buy the book at barnes&noble, I'm redirected to a page that's blocked by firefox for malicious content.

    Wow one of your best videos so far. Amazing content and I hope you continue to make these historical videos when there is an interesting subject

    This was a great video! I hope it gets a lot of views!

    It's interesting that the YouTube algorithm offers me this video only after three days. I guess he was bothered by the length.
    More history! We want to hear about Luis Ramirez de Lucena.

    "Gioacchino" and "gioco piano" sound similar because you are misspronouncing "Gioacchino". Also the "gioco" but to a lesser degree. The h in italian indicates a hard sound. In english it would be pronounced a little as: "joakkino"

    It's a wonderful video, i'm a french who doesn't know anything real about chess but loves it and your videos make me grow at chess, I would love to share your video with one of my friends who has an audition problem, do you think it would be possible to make subtitles in english or in french not generated automically?
    I love your work anyway and hope you continue to make us feel your love for chess. You're making my depression going away just by sharing your true love for chess, it sounds ridiculous even for me but it's true.

    10:23 "Back in the day this is the way they played chess…swashbuckling…dangerous, etc" Welcome to my world in 2024 online chess! Thanks for the wonderful history lesson!

    Hi Levy, Can you stop yelling? You're giving me a headache. Thanks.

    OK Gotham. I admit it – you are a very good storyteller? Brilliant! 😊

    Kinda random, but if Magnus is getting bored with classical chess (and may get bored with blitz and rapid), why doesn't he try to get into chess960? If Magnus got into that, he could bring massive attention to that variation and raise its worldwide prominence

    @lightspark is probably over the moon the way gotham likes his comment

    i keep watching thsi video how good it is

    I LOVE this kind of video. Looking forward for more

    Thanks, great video, great games. Much better than "Guess the Elo"!

    Very interesting, as usual, fundamentals datas of chess. Thanks a lot for this contribution to the modern state of chess.

    Why are you able to pronounce polish sounds correctly? You are not supposed to 😊

    Thank you for this gem of a video. I am still to find a subject that is not improved by adding History to it.

    Please please please keep the deep dives coming! This was literally the only thing missing from your offerings. We all love agad, of course. But I find your delivery more captivating. My 5yo daughter literally just asked me to put on your nezhmetdinov video on the way to school. 🎉

    The Soviet school: 'You had to be in good physical shape' Does Tal mean nothing to you?

    Levy, the new content of 2024 is absolutely wonderful. I'm so glad we got this Gotham back. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the Mittens vs Mittens videos while eating etc. but this right here is quality.

    Hey man, is it possible to do a video on how you would learn chess now if you're just starting. Like what books you'd read how would you study certain things? Is playing a lot of games a good idea etc etc

    Really great video! Loved it!❤

    Just dropped by to tell that your pronounce of Gioachino is so wrong 🙂

    i don't believe i watched a history of chess straight 40 minutes even i hate history lesson so much haha

    Love history content, it gives so much context to the way we currently think about the game ❤

    best fuckin video you've made in years i love this shit

    Are there any game preserved from Ruy Lopez de Segura?

    YESSSSSSSSSS! Keep bringing this great stuff! LOVE chess history! Love classic games of the masters!

    I would love a video about the history of women in chess!

    Really enjoyed this one! Gotta get back to some swashbuckling 🤺

    4:52 note to self: if opponents queen is defended, do not sacrifice your Knight for it
    Thanks Gotham! 💪

    Would love to see a series of famous players' greatest wins in the variations named after them – Morphy winning with the Morphy defense, Tarrasch winning in the Tarrasch, etc. One video per variation, show like 3-4 of the best games

    You gotta call it the meta or the kids won’t get it

    Fischer foresaw the ruination of chess by computers. All chess henceforward should be Fischer Random, it's the only interesting game.

    what a video,very entertaining with lots of knowledge about chess history

    2 hundred years from now, this video will most likely be on display at Louvre. Epic!
