Bobby Fischer: Chess, Communism and a WAYLT Case Study

If you’ve been knee deep in The Queen's Gambit, we’ve got the story of a real chess celeb that will have you asking a LOT of questions. After stumbling upon the Wikipedia of Bobby Fischer while recording a few weeks ago, we just couldn’t actually leave the rest of his story alone. It’s a wild tale of communism, The Cold War, reckless nationalism, and perhaps a childhood that was a bit of a pressure cooker. Here comes the Dark Triad... Because if you’re paranoid that the government is watching you, but the government is *actually* watching your mom... is it even paranoia? Brace yourselves for a case study with so many deplorable sound bites that we have to beg you not to take them out of context. Our move? Checkmate.
