Fabiano Caruana helps usher in a new era for American chess
Twenty-six-year-old American Fabiano Caruana is poised to become the next chess world champion. Despite his success, most Americans don't know his name. Yet they still remember Bobby Fischer, whose iconic triumph over a Soviet rival is imprinted in popular consciousness. William Brangham speaks to Stefan Fatsis, of the “Hang Up and Listen” podcast, about why we don't pay more attention to chess.
