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.

Craig Fenton is the CEO of New Zealand Rugby Commercial which means it’s his job to drive the business of the All Blacks, Black Ferns and other teams in black.

But Craig is not your typical rugby administrator.

He owns a record label and a film production company, he has his pilot’s license, he was a lawyer, he worked at Google for six years, he hosted his own podcast and he’s on the cutting edge of all the latest trends and developments with AI and technology.

And he’s a great chat.

In this episode we talk about the time he rapped for the Black Ferns Sevens, the future of AI, what he learned from mixing with the best minds at Google, how he connects with his kids, why he returned to NZ after 20 years overseas, NZ Rugby’s biggest issues, the business of rugby and the future of content creation in NZ.

Craig is a larger-than-life character, energetic, into technology – in fact he’s a self-titled geek who is an exceptionally hard worker. He’s lived a pretty exceptional life so far but you get the feeling the next chapter might be his best.

We loved this chat – and took so much from it.

Craig Fenton: NZR Commercial CEO & Ex-Google Director on the Business of Rugby & Future of Content Creation

Steve and Seamus discuss Matt Heath's move away from breakfast radio, the feedback they received from their 'Luxon decision', why Steve's five-year-old is the fastest in his family, NZ's most epic untold business stories, recent episodes with Matiu Walters from Six 60 and the most interesting developments from their business channel.

Reacting to Matt Heath Leaving Radio Hauraki & Backlash From Luxon Decision

Matiu Walters is the lead singer and guitarist of New Zealand’s band Six60.

The group formed in Dunedin in 2008, and across the last 16 years have broken all the rules to become New Zealand’s biggest band.

In 2019 they became the first New Zealand act to sell out Western Springs and in 2021 became the first band to ever play Eden Park to a sold-out crowd of 50,000. 

In this episode we talk to Matiu about Otago University and the origins of the band, getting coached by Josh Kronfeld – and then performing on stage with him, their spine-tingling Eden Park show, his response to harsh critical reviews, the highs and lows of being a musician, Teddy Swims, Eli leaving the band and much, much more.

Matiu is such a great chat. Despite being one of New Zealand’s most popular musicians – there’s no ego attached. He’s as down to earth as they come, and we go deep on all of the most interesting and insightful parts of Six60s wild ride.
