Went to School with Iam and his brothers, and I can confirm this guy would walk around with his guitar in slippers with no backpack around school 🤣🤣🤣🤟🏾 ofa atu iam.

Omg! So much fun watching these guys with Iam! The love they show for each other! Island style! Love u guys! Love Iam!❤
I just watched this podcast and had so much fun watching all of you guys, especially Iam!! I first saw him when he auditioned on American Idol, voted for him every time and was ecstatic when he won! I have followed him ever since and have been to two of his concerts in Virginia. He is so genuine and so talented and I love watching him! By the way, I am a 74 year old Great-Grandmother who adores him. Your podcast and all of you guys are incredible! Thank you!
My favorite human. You continue to be so grounded despite your popularity and fame, reason why we are so in love with you Iam Tongi. And much respect to your Uncle Manatau, I can so much of your good nature from him. Keep happy.
Loved the podcast. The hour and 9 minutes flew by. Iam is an amazing young man. Not only for his magical voice. As a person he is just amazing. Everybody just loves him. His uncle is the best. Thanks for pulling him into the podcast. And the three hosts are just perfect. Respectful , asking relevant questions but also bringing in the fun.
