From Sagar forgetting Andrea's name to interviewing her, we came a long way 😂

3:30 “… especially for [my sister] who worked a lot harder and deserves it more.” That’s one of the nicest things you’ve said about your sister. 👍🏻❤

This is amazing. Never seen Andrea this much clam and composed. Loved this interview.

This is the most sincere I have seen Andrea, it's almost soothing! Only Sagar's interview style can make that happen..

I am genuinely shocked seeing the difference between this Andrea and the one we see on her streams!!!!!!!!!!

Amazing interview! Great that you managed to get to meet the Botez sisters in person!

Aw the way she acknowledges Alex’s hard work and says she learns a lot from her.. so wholesome ❤️🥺

I don’t think she dropped out of high school. She decided to hold off on going to college.

So glad you were able to catch up with the Botez sisters! Big fan here of both of your channels! Also, much credit to the Botez sisters for pushing the boundaries and inspiring countless people to play chess! Cheers!

Great interview. Loved to see this side of Andrea.

Her " calm voice " is soothing ngl

This is such a well-rounded interview. Andrea was extremely articulate and put across her viewpoints very nicely. Thanks Sagar Bhai for always putting up such inspiring content.

Sagar asks the best and all the right questions!💯

Andrea comes across sooooo well here :). Seems really kind and genuine when she isn't streaming

It is really nice to see that despite all the silliness on their streams they actually put a lot of thoughts and considerations into what they are doing. They are smart people loving to be goofy!

Sending Love from India to Botez sister's ❤

Every interview ive seen with Andrea, she is a humble queen. Her wild side is reserved for content.

I like Andrea on the Botez streams, but this interview showed off a whole different part of her personality that I suspected was there but that we don’t usually see. Thank you for sharing!

It's very nice that people are beginning to notice how well-spoken, intelligent, and sincere Andrea Botez is here, but it was very clear almost two years ago that Andrea is a remarkable person, and I have long predicted that the Botez Sisters shall have the world at their fingertips. I may not live long enough to see it happen, as I am in my seventh decade, but I'm confident these ladies have a bright future ahead of them, and nothing should prevent them from becoming enormously successful. Andrea's wit, charm, intelligence, and ability to engage has been there all along, and I do believe that Alexandra has both nurtured and developed this. These women will go on to accomplish remarkable things, and it's a pleasure just to witness it. 💙 💛 💖 - j q t -

Sagar bhai can you do an interview with Eric Rosen ?

very intelligent for her age, long live the botez sisters!

Chessbase India and Botez Live! Top Chess Streamers/ content creators ❤️

I guess Andrea has already written her biography, and now she is just living her life according the chapters. Chapter 3: dropped out of Harvard to peruse passion.

Now we all know how knight moves

Just love these kind of videos... Where we get to know our favorite people a bit more and connect with them by knowing their life stories... Thanks guys for this... Keep doing what you do ❤❤❤

Another great interview. Thanks for the recording, editing, and sharing.

Sagar sir, one thing i wanted to put you to notice is that always your recordings have this kind of muffled sound from right side of the headphones, if you are using some kind of microphone for audio, it might be a mono microphone, so that might be the issue, but if you're recording the audio from the phone only then it might be a issue due to hand covering one of the mic area in phone, or maybe its just a editing issue, i can't really pin point the cause of it, it just eerily disturbs the experience...just a feedback for you if it might help you in some way

Really nice interview. Nice to see the calm and collected side of Andrea, was wondering if she even had one :)

Honestly a very well prepped and pleasant interview

What a nice interview and what a nice person Andrea is!

Now I started liking Andrea more than ever !!

She is just so beautiful. And I love their content as well. And I’m impressed by this young lady a lot.

Serious Andrea video. A rarity.

Sagar Shah: forget Andrea's name... Andrea: Saga Sha

So well spoken. American positiveness and communication is top notch and highly infectious.

I know she plays the silly younger sister a lot of time, but Andrea has a great head on her shoulders she is quite savvy at this.

What a great interview, I'm so happy I clicked on this! Really great questions and really great answers. You asked all the questions I'd want to ask!

She's been growing into this gorgeous woman on the outside and after this interview you can see the beauty is equally captivating on the inside. Wonderful woman she's becoming 😍👏🏻 excited to keep seeing the growth.

I wish the Botez’s were around when I was growing up and getting interested in chess. When I was young I went to several chess clubs but never went back, they were unwelcoming, hostile places. Chess needs to be taken out of the hands of such people. The Botez’s and many like them have grown up playing and learning chess on the internet, the new generation is much more sociable than chess players have traditionally been. I just wish I was younger and could’ve been part of this social revolution in chess. Good time are ahead.

Great interview. Andrea was brilliant.

great interview, thank you

I love Botez sisters ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Wow Andrea wasn't her usual iconic crazy and explosive self in this lol. Big fan of her and Alex for making Chess twitch streams more inclusive and fun for beginners!

Lovely interview. Both the interviewer and interviewee are very sweet people and it definitely showed. I love the coverage Sagar. Any chance of getting with Fiona Steil-Antony too? Tania? And don't forget to interview your lovely wife too. Would love to hear what she's learning and enjoying there as well. Keep it up! 👍🏼

What a lovely interview! Andrea is often known for her crazy antics but she came off here as a poised, articulate, and charming young lady.

I have mentioned or suggested on a few occasions where Netflix would make for a awesome platform for a documentary sort of series with the Women of Chess, especially with how well the Queen’s Gambit did for chess in general. I sort of see it with no particular order, yet Episode 1 could be ‘Meet the Botez Sisters; Episode 2 Meet Irina Krush and so on. Of course there are many names and stories to mention with the Polgar sisters, Phiona Mutesi, Carissa Yip, etc. My old chess coach is WFM Maria Leks (Poland) and she is awesome to work with as well.

Great to see Andrea out of the content creator character and find a very smart and kind person

I love this girl. Great personality to go with her cuteness. Always entertaining to watch.

A chess world tour like the one they just had - it couldn't get any better for these young women, popularizing chess like no one had ever before. Thank you *Andrea* , thank you *Alex* .

This is a great interview.

A well paced interview of an interesting and well-spoken subject conducted by a competent and prepared interviewer. Its a shame this is so rare to find!

She's so chill and calm when she's not around her sister lmao

Being a content creator is hard. Even with a great interviewer like this, you have to worry about things as a content creator. It was good to see this side of Andrea. I'm glad she and Alex get along.

Great interview! I'm surprised how much I learned.

Love your personality, so beautiful and funny. Hope you do well!!

The idea they have for the behind the scenes tournament is a good idea. Im a new chess player myself do to the pandemic and would like to see how it could be if I continue to play and engage fully in an actual tournament.

Sagar is the best interviewer

Great interview!

Andrea and Alex are always willing to acknowledge their mistakes. At chess and at interviews and life. I admire the fact that they are always trying to be better, which is something that people seem to ignore.

That was a nice interview.

I am very fond on the Botez sisters, keep up the good work ladies

Nice interview, Andrea is calm here and, yeah, amazing eyebrows.

Wholesome collab ❤️, Samay bhai missing

“We want to succeed together” 🙌😎❤️💫

Great interview Andrea!!!youre amazing and so cute!!!!love the way how you smile all the time 🥰

You go girl!

Most of the people love the crazy ness of andrea

Very well-spoken.

Yes, thanks for telling this story, fells like getting to know u

Wow this was a not a crossover I was expecting

Sagar.. bring the Cotez sisters to Olympiad 2022 in Chennai. That would be good for chess streamers. 👍

nice interview - we get to see a different side of Andrea

Andrea is so calm here man😂

Looking at Sagar, no one can be rude or say no..

Excellent interview! Very insightful. Serious, but still fun. Andrea's cunning college plan made me laugh.

She is a pure soul ❤❤❤❤

this time he remembered the name

She is much more grounded then the character she plays as a streamer, very cool to hear from here!

Cute and smart young lady ... I love her.

Awesome

her best is yet to come

Loved to meet her in real life

Keep going ladies

hail andrea......

she is so pretty

Sooo sooo sooo lovely…

She is a delight to watch.

Nice sir

I love the Botez sisters

Note it Andrea is either future Software developer/Product Manager/Project Manager/Tech entrepreneur at TFAMMNG XD

I came back to chess, because of Alexandra. Truth hurts.

HERMOSA

Mobamba tak se inspirational story nikaal li Sagar ne _/\_

Pretty and Smart Andrea. I'm your fan.

This is great but it would be amazing if you could have a conversation with her rather than take an interview. And instead of asking questions from behind the camera get yourself in video as well. Great video and amazing questions too

All women are beautiful, only Andrea Botez is the most beautiful :) :)

Andrea looks so ridiculously pretty here. Better than the ultra glam look she tends to go with

She also asks inspiring questions...

"Like the leaf on the river - it does not hold it back, creates not even a ripple." Master Po btw...what a beautiful young woman

Andrea has a potential to be as much of a competitive chess star as she's a pretty face on the internet today. She should try a couple tournaments.
