Mike Safo with Danny Shih

Joined today all the way from Taiwan, podcaster and University of Texas student Danny Shih. Danny and I talk about his upbringing in Taiwan and Beijing and what made him want to travel around the world and attend UT in Austin. We chat about his podcast “Rants with Danny Shih”, how it got started, his dream guests and some Texas sports. Danny tells us how he became a diehard Yankees fan watching Chien-Ming Wang dominate, we touch on the 2020 Yankees roster, signing Gerrit Cole and why he isn’t one of those unrealistic Yankee fans. We chat about the CPBL, (Chinese Professional Baseball League), the history of it, Manny Ramirez playing there and the cardboard cutout of fans we see in the stands. From why Taiwan is leading the world in the fight against Covid-19 to what to do and eat when visiting Taiwan. Check out Danny on twitter and listen to his fantastic podcast here:
