Such a shame to see Danya dragged into all this. I get that there's cheating out there, and understand it can make honest players paranoid, but he'd be bottom of my list of people to be suspicious of. He clearly loves the game and the community, and has given so much to both. The allegations make no sense. Hope Kramnik recovers some clarity of thought and stops throwing mud around without proper justification.

Great podcast! Good job. The only negative comment is about sound quality which needs improvement. Sometimes voices are too loud and other times hard to hear. More importantly that background noise :(
Siddharth Upasani
I think the volume needs be higher.
