Radio’s best mates Hamish & Andy feature on Movember mural

Former Hit Drive duo turned popular podcasters Hamish & Andy have donated their likeness to a charity mural.

Their faces have popped up on Hozier Lane in Melbourne for the fourth annual ‘MAYEIGHT!!’ campaign, run by the Movember Foundation.

MAYEIGHT!! encourages men to use the date May 8 to catch up with a mate to help tackle social isolation and improve mental health among men.

The mural was created by street artist Ling and took 17 hours to complete.

This year’s MAYEIGHT!! urges men to follow three steps to improving mental health; Step Up, Catch Up, Speak Up.

“We chose to celebrate Hamish & Andy this MAYEIGHT!! as two of Australia’s most iconic mates,” said a Movember Foundation spokesperson.

“Their mateship that has endured the public spotlight for more than 16 years, they’ve been there for each other through thick and thin and are obviously very comfortable and open in their mateship – not all mates could hang out with their Pants-Off every Friday.

“This is the kind of mateship we’d encourage all guys to nurture, and they can start this May 8 with a simple conversation.”
