Between Two Beers Podcast
Good questions. Great guests. Few beers... Steve and Seamus like asking good questions. And they love good answers.

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. Acast Hosted on Acast.
