Beretts' Best

Five world titles, a crash that nearly cost him his leg, and a second life most people never see. Mick Doohan sat down with Beretts from Monaco.
One of the most fearless athletes we have ever produced, Mick takes us from a box-frame minibike on the Gold Coast to five 500cc world championships and total dominance, the mindset it took to win, and the 1992 Assen crash and the extraordinary surgery that joined his legs together to save one of them. Plus the life after racing most people never hear about, running a global aviation business and guiding his son Jack through Formula One, with Jack jumping on to talk life at Haas. Courage, resilience and one incredible ride.

She didn’t grow up dreaming of the Olympics. She bought her first proper bike at twenty-three, and a few years later she was Australia’s first gold medallist in Paris. Grace Brown’s story is one of a kind. 
Beretts sits down with Grace on the injuries that ended her running, the imposter feeling of starting late, the seven seconds that lit the fire in Tokyo, and the perfect ride in Paris that made her an Olympic champion. Honest, humble and full of belief.

A Mad Monday costume that became Reg Reagan. A brother who was good at everything. And a son who drove him across town at beer eleven to make things right. Matty Johns sat down with Beretts and told story after story. 
Beretts gets Matty on the heart behind the humour, Brad Thorn’s hidden anxiety, growing up Johns in a coal town, life in Joey’s shadow, and the 1997 grand final that carried a whole city. Funny, honest and full of heart. This is Matty Johns like you’ve never heard him.

Six Bathurst wins. Five championships. And a health scare in 2017 that Mark Skaife has never spoken about, until now. 
Two mates of thirty years settle in for a long one. Beretts and Mark Skaife go through the mind of a champion, the day Jim Richards called the crowd a pack of assholes in the rain at Bathurst, what Peter Brock really meant to him and the loss of Holden. Then Skaifey opens up on the two strokes in 2017 that nearly took everything, and the fight he kept to himself. Honest, funny and unforgettable.

He tore his hamstring clean off the bone the same day Australia won the Ashes, and he still calls it a good day. Nathan Lyon sat down with Beretts for one of the most open chats we’ve had. Gaz takes us from the groundsman’s shed at Adelaide Oval to a first-ball wicket on debut, why the baggy green belongs to his family and not to him, the dad who keeps him grounded, and the work in the bush that means more to him than any wicket. Warm, funny and completely without ego. This is Nathan Lyon like you’ve never heard him. #BerettsBest #NathanLyon #Cricket #Ashes #Australia #Podcast
