All of this happened during lockdown.
So the craziest thing was I was just kind of in my house
and then the Internet was telling me that things were happening,
but I don't believe it.
So I'm like, OK, fine.
And then I landed in New York and I was like, nope, this is different.
Must run.
But I think the thing that I love the most is the disparity between ages,
because you have like really little kids that love it.
And then you have like 87 year old people that are like Beth.
And I love that.
That's my favorite.
Yeah, I bet it is.
Yeah. Do they want to tell you their interesting chess stories or what?
What did they just say?
You were very good in it.
Um, no, sometimes they want to play me at chess.
But the thing is, it's like,
A, I don't carry one with me.
Sorry to disappoint.
But B, the thing about jumping from project to project
is that you gain skills for that particular project.
So I'm like, yeah, chess was like two years ago.
Now I'm like good at cars and stuff like that, so sorry.
Do people challenge you at other games?
At other games? Yeah.
Oh. Rock, paper, scissors right now.
One, two, three. Ha!
