Incoming SA: How to bring up common interests in networking circumstances

I'm an Incoming BB SA. I found through social media that one of my supervisors and I share some common interests, i.e. games, TV series, sports, like we both are big fan. I am trying to network with him over the phone but am wondering if I should ever bring this up and, if so, how I should appropriately bring this up.

Obviously I cannot say I stalk him on Twitter and Instagram.

Thanks for any insights.

Serious answers pls.
