I felt many here would have seen this months ago at ChessBase and Chess Cafe, but I was sure many may have missed it. I listened to it many times and deciphered the bits which were unclear or garbled. Maybe someone will pick up something said that I missed or just improve on what I believed I heard. Indeed, Alekhine was most probably an Anti-Semite. This is a shame, and I know he was indeed a good manipulator as well. But I wanted to concentrate on the interview, rather than his shortcomings.
