This week on Between Two Beers, we talk to David Downs.


This episode is a little bit different as it was filmed in front of a live audience at The Icehouse. There's about 150 in the room, and David is the perfect guest for our first ever recorded live pod.


David is a former comedian, he's a business owner. He's the CEO of New Zealand Story and the chairman of the Ice House with a ridiculous business CV. And he's also a terminal cancer survivor.


And we got all of his story in this epic chat. The energy in the room was great, and this is something we're keen to do a lot more of in future.


Huge thanks to the team at The Icehouse for helping us put this on, we had a great night and are super excited to share it with you.

Between Two Beers Podcast

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.
