Jennifer Shahade talks to 16-year-old International Master Carissa Yip on the newest episode of Ladies Knight. The popular two-time US Junior Girls Champ is a serial record breaker- the youngest female to defeat a GM at the age of ten, and the youngest American female in history to become an International Master.

Jennifer and Carissa talk about her recent streaming activity on twitch.tv/carissayip, where shes quickly amassed a strong following. They also talk about Yips charitable initiative, Chess for COVID-19 and her recent charity event for COVID-19 relief, that featured heavy hitters like Jeffery Xiong and Ray Robson, as well as eventual winner Josh Friedel.

Carissa gives tips for people of all ages looking to improve, from her favorite books to how to break through a tactical plateau. She also talks about her hobbies outside chess, from baking to TikTok. She reminisces about two of her most memorable victories, over Grandmasters Dariusz Swiercz and World Womens Champion Ju Wenjun.
