NSTS Episode 133 - Broadcasting Legend Mark Hebscher
Episode description
This week I host someone I used to stay up late to watch as a teenage sports fan - broadcast legend Mark Hebscher. Since his days hosting the innovative Sportsline, Mark has done a number of other things including having written a new book entitled The Greatest Athlete You've Never Heard Of.
Hebsy is also a massive music fan, and we chat about all sorts of stuff - Mick Taylor, Paradigm Phantoms, being introduced to Los Lobos, why catchers paint their fingernails, and how he got to hear an early version of The Hip's "Ahead By A Century" as it was being written by the band.
Hebsy's playlist:
King Crimson - 21st Century Schizoid Man
Traffic - The Low Spark of High Heeled Shoes
The Rolling Stones - Can't You Hear Me Knocking
Los Lobos - Theresa
The Tragically Hip - Ahead By A Century
