In this lively episode of Billified: The Bill Moran Podcast, Bill and Kevin welcome Kevin’s son’s youth hockey coach, the one-and-only Joe Occhino, into the studio. Joe’s no ordinary coach—he’s a powerhouse who not only leads his son’s team but also his daughter’s, sharing insights from years on the ice and wisdom gained from coaching today’s generation of young players. Hear Joe’s take on motivating kids, knowing when to push, and the delicate art of handling the parents—some more challenging than others!
Dan joins the conversation with his unique take on the Buffalo Bills’ upcoming clash with the Kansas City Chiefs, sparking a debate with Joe, a frequent gambler whose bets are firmly on the opposite side. Both, however, agree on one thing: despite the stats, Josh Allen is putting up some of the best football of his career this season.
Joe takes us back to his college days in Geneseo, where he invented “The Occhino Slam”—a legendary game still alive on campus today. And in a round of “Closest to the Pin,” Joe puts his skills to the test in-studio. Play along to see if you can beat the legend himself! Bill then dives into the mystery of a car pulled from Canandaigua Lake, hinting at questions that still linger and a missing piece he believes is captured on Snapchat.
Packed with stories, laughs, and competition, this episode reveals why Joe Occhino is a legend both on and off the ice. Enjoy the ride!
