Tune in Thursday morning, Dan will be catching up with Mark Hadlow - star of GOMIL.
We have two double passes to give away - just tag a mate and you're in the draw.
Winner announced Friday morning.

One of New Zealand’s biggest theatrical success stories is back in the saddle! Following the phenomenal popularity of MAMIL (Middle Aged Man in Lycra), which played to over 70,000 people across the country, comes its laugh-out-loud sequel: GOMIL – Grumpy Old Man in Lycra.

From the comedic genius of writer and director Gregory Cooper (MAMIL, That Bloody Woman) and starring Kiwi acting royalty Mark Hadlow ONZM (King Kong, The Hobbit, SNAG), GOMIL is primed to bring a fresh wave of laughter, Lycra, and life’s mid-life absurdities.
