Toni Street on Losing 3 Siblings, Mike Hosking & a Life in Broadcasting
This week on Between Two beers we talk to Toni Street.
Toni is one of New Zealand's best and most popular broadcasters.
She's been a host on breakfast TV and been a sports reporter for TVNZ, she co-hosted Seven Sharp alongside Mike Hosking for four years, before she made the switch to radio - where she now hosts the Coast Breakfast host alongside Sam Wallace and Jason Reeves.
In this episode we talk about playing for NZ A in cricket - and if she could have gone pro, how she got her break on Breakfast TV, singing to Ronan Keating, anchoring the America's Cup coverage in 2013, the reality of working with Mike Hosking, why she walked away, the art of the interview and so much more.
Toni's life is also a story of devastating loss and recovery. Toni has tragically lost three siblings and we talk about her heartbreak and resilience.
This is one of our favourite episodes. Toni just brings the best, most contagious energy, is a world class storyteller and has the warmest personality.

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.
