#116 End Game First, First Move Second - Eugene Brown, Big Chair Chess Club

felony inc podcast

Thanks for being our guest again and bringing your inspirational story to us, Eugene Brown! Author of the book, "From Pawns to Kings" and portrayed in the movie, "Life of a King", Eugene spent 18 years in prison for participating in a bank robbery at 20. The game of chess in prison taught him much more than a game, or to think, or to compete. It taught him the moves you make in life will make you a pawn or a King - the choice is yours. He has been making great moves since then and the biggest one is to pass that lesson along to others, especially the young people. Having an end-game is the most important thing to know before you make your first move. Eugene stresses that ignorance is the biggest impediment to everyone's enlightenment and the more we can shine light in a dark corner, the better society gets.
