MIKE HSU | Chirping Zebras Podcast | Ep 65

In this episode, we’re just shootin’ the breeze about everything from hockey refs to Celtics games and wild minor league antics. Mike Hsu joins us to break down growing up in a hardcore sports family, and we get into some hilarious stories about Richmond Renegades — yeah, those weird team names and crazy promos that only minor league sports can deliver.We dive into mascot madness, parade chaos (Dropkick Murphys anyone?), and how Mardi Gras and St. Patty’s Day celebrations stack up. Then we flip the script to the radio world — sharing behind-the-scenes stories, epic live moments, and what it’s like working with some of the best in the biz.Of course, we can’t skip the hockey talk — gripes about team injuries, the pressure on refs trying to keep the game clean, and the kind of tough calls only a true official can make. Plus, some classic sports movie nostalgia to lighten things up.We wrap it all up with stories from the ice and even some disc golf fun — because sports are as much about the laughs and friendships as the competition.Kick back, crack a cold one, and join us for the laughs and the love of the game.. even the disc one!_____________Hosted by former professional hockey refs, Mark Riley and Geno Binda Jr., with producer Josh Dolan, this is the podcast where refs, players, coaches, and fans all hit the mic. No whistles. No filter. Just old-time hockey stories, on-ice chirps, and behind-the-scenes gold from the world of officiating and beyond.We’re talking legends, locker room chaos, benders, barn burners, and everything in between.
