Please do these more often. And, yes, I am watching the entire 90 minutes. I came for the chess, I stayed for the comedy.

[@adenpower249]

Jan is my favourite chess celebrity

[@explainous]

Watching this is therapeutic.

[@oldschoolwarrior]

Jan is back on Banter Blitz! Maybe this is a prelude to the return of Radio Jan! I can only hope.

[@smerdyakovkb9782]

Saying that is a good way to get Jan to do /less/ of these. Radio Jan was just Jan of the moment. Long live Radio Jan.

[@oldschoolwarrior]

@@smerdyakovkb9782 Why would he do fewer because of a compliment?

[@smerdyakovkb9782]

@@oldschoolwarrior He has explained it more than once when it's brought up in chat: requests for Radio Jan sound like complaints about just Jan as himself. It makes sense. Plus isn't it better to have Banter Blitz as a free flow of Jan's different personae? Radio Jan happened and it was funny but it's a limited format.

[@oldschoolwarrior]

@@smerdyakovkb9782 I wouldn't want it instead of Jan but in ADDITION to Jan. But if he sees it that way and he doesn't like requests for it then I guess I'll leave it at that. He just did such a great job that it was nice seeing that character.

5:20 min. I made that same stupid south park reference in the office today and no one got it. so this made my day haha

[@dracandros]

Bring back Radio Jan

[@ATX0705]

Bring back Banter Blitz

[@christophermadden5138]

Jan!!!

[@widebody123]

Thank you Jan. You have inspired me to learn this interesting game.

[@wrathofpunjabi]

He plays near perfect!!!

[@Wesssss84]

Jan is funny if nothing else

[@oldschoolwarrior]

I'll tell you what you ARE 100% on: the comedy.

[@ShurlockHolmes]

It's like the Dutch Rick Astley who plays Chess

[@NullaUK]

Jan is the most entertaining of the Blitz series. ‘It doesn’t make sense to invest 90 minutes to learn 1.5 things about chess..’

[@ccr4igg]

Hey Jan

[@davew4304]

Did he spray soul glow on his hair?
