This episode is from All Things Go, a podcast about the board game Go, also known as Baduk in Korea and Weiqi in China.
Travis speaks with Shawn Ray, known online as Clossius, about building a life around teaching Go, developing the Clossi approach, and making the game more welcoming to beginners and casual players. Shawn explains how he moved away from a conventional desk job, why he emphasizes simple English terminology, how players can review games without becoming overly self-critical, and why playing more games often matters more than trying to play perfectly. The episode also includes Gazza White's discussion of the gender gap in professional Go and Travis's season-ending reflections on teaching, accessibility, losing, and growing the game in the West.
