Good questions. Great guests. Few beers... Steve and Seamus like asking good questions. And they love good answers. After over 20 years of friendship, they bought a microphone and started a podcast, allowing them to sit with, and learn from, the most interesting people they can access.

From Kiwi legend Marc Ellis, to media personalities Jeremy Wells and Paddy Gower, Rugby coach extraordinaire Wayne Smith, sexologist Morgan Penn, and Olympian Dame Lisa Carrington...  Between Two Beers has produced countless hours of incredible stories, career highs, lows and moments of raw vulnerability. And it’s only the beginning.

His company represents many of NZ’s biggest stars, from Scott Robertson, Ian Foster, Beauden Barrett and Dan Carter to Dame Valerie Adams, Suzie Bates, Gemma McCaw and Willie Apiata.

His knowledge of sport in NZ and sponsorship contracts is second to none.

In this episode we talk about the realities of being NZ’s top sporting agent – and what separates the good from the great, behind the scenes of representing both Razor and Ian Foster during the All Blacks coaching saga, his role in connecting NZ Rugby with Japan, the problems with rugby in NZ, where cricket is headed, and much, much more.

Simon is one of the cleanest, sharpest thinkers in NZ sport and this was an entertaining and insightful peak behind the scenes of his world.

We Did the AM Double - Kevin Milne & Mediawatch, Live Podcast Next Friday! Hambassadors #26

Brooke’s life story actually needs a long-form podcast to do it justice – and to cover all his  twists and turns.

He was an X Games medalist, who at 19 co-created Senate, a skate company that was turning over $14m a year, while touring with Tony Hawk and Matt Hoffman. He lost it all, moved to NZ, opened the legendary Pony nightclub in Auckland, was a star on TV3’s hit show Target and has been the Organiser of many of New Zealand's largest national televised fundraisers – collectively raising over 10 million in the last decade.

These days, he describes himself as a Futurist and has co-founded several groundbreaking companies focused on the emerging creator economy, Web3 and the metaverse.

There’s just so much goodness in this one, from Brooke’s role in the All Blacks’ 2007 demise, to how he got Taika Waititi and Joel Little to collab, to all the best stories from his Pony Nightclub, where Lady Gaga, Tommy Lee and Elle Macpherson would visit.

Brooke is an open book and this was such a fun chat filled with a ton of laughs. And his explanation of what the future looks like might bend your brain.

We’re also super stoked to tell you about the business we’ve built. If you’d like to hire one of our incredible guests to speak at or MC your event, check out our epic lineup at B2Bspeakers.co.nz and get in touch.
