The Hot Breakfast’s Mick Molloy and Luke Darcy are on a plane to Brazil for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. 

The trip is part of the Chuck a Sickie with Mickey competition, which saw listeners Australia-wide vie to take time off from work and get over to the land of Samba and Capoeira.

In partnership with BetEasy, Mick and Luke are travelling across the world with eight Triple M fans who are chucking a sickie to soak up all the ‘futebol’ festivities and to attend the Australia vs Spain game in Curitiba.

Eddie McGuire will hold the Triple M fort in Melbourne, with replacement co-host Sam Pang, and will connect live to his co-hosts in Rio de Janeiro all next week, Monday 23 – Friday 27 June. The boys are set to serve up a whole lot of hot feijoada’s for breakfast!
