The Flava Breakfast Podcast.

SPEAKER_2 (0:03)

Flava Old School, Humonga and R&B, we are so excited to have him back, Konrad Hurrell. Yeah, boy. Okay, MMT, Morena, good morning.

Charlie (0:14)

Morena, my doggo. What are you up to, man?

Azura (0:18)

MMT, baby.

SPEAKER_2 (0:20)

How good was that word, doggo?

Charlie (0:22)

Talk to me.

Konrad Hurrell (0:23)

It was very good, man, very, very good, very good. I think it's very good for all Tongans, working up this morning, feeling good.

Azura (0:33)

Can I just ask you a question? And I don't know if you were reading the comments on the video that we did. It was the same story on the TikTok, on the Facebook, on the Instagram.

People were pretty disappointed that you didn't run around the field naked like you said you would.

Konrad Hurrell (0:49)

Nah, at first, to be fair, there was cops around. But when I, I think they took all my clothes off, but they were going to arrest me because I had a big shotgun on me. So I had to stop doing it. I had a big bazooka on, so they said.

Charlie (1:06)

You're carrying a weapon, eh, Toco?

SPEAKER_1 (1:08)

But then again, I heard it was-

Konrad Hurrell (1:09)

They said to put my clothes back on, so yeah.

Charlie (1:11)

Yeah, I mean, people did send through some videos, Toco, and because it looked like it was pretty cold from their videos. Was it cold like that night?

Konrad Hurrell (1:23)

I think they were doing the video in the 0.5, I think. They went to the normal camera, they would have, yeah, it would have been a different story.

Azura (1:31)

Can I ask a question to the both of you? Because I'll be completely honest, and I couldn't figure it out online, I don't know what tautautau means.

Like I've actually honestly got no idea. And everyone keep commenting that in the comments, and I promise you, I have no- I still do not know what that means.

Charlie (1:48)

I want to let Connie explain what tautautau means.

Azura (1:51)

Did I just say something that I shouldn't have said? You didn't hear it.

Konrad Hurrell (1:54)

No, it's good. That tautautau means is in Charlie's point of view is, yeah, something to do with the bazooka.

Charlie (2:04)

Because, okay, so the reason why it's bad, like you gotta say it three times. I thought it was bad. But when you're saying it twice, like tautautau, that's something else.

Azura (2:17)

See, I don't know what you're saying, and I don't want you to keep saying bad words on the radio.

Charlie (2:21)

We're not saying bad words on the radio.

SPEAKER_1 (2:22)

It's not bad. No, never.

Charlie (2:24)

Okay.

Azura (2:24)

But you know, how is everyone feeling after the game? Because it was so full on, and I mean, they gave everything.

Konrad Hurrell (2:35)

Yeah, it was.

Obviously, the last couple of years, since the last World Cup, the boys still had that feeling of disappointment. And I think after last night, it was kind of like a weight on their shoulders, get off their shoulders. And I think it's just good to get the win. Overseas, even to Samoa, I don't want to be on the disappointing side, but I think this game last night was good for the World Cup, and good for the Polynesian people as well. Just to see those two small nations, to bring everyone together, and bring the whole of Australia, and all these other fans around the world, to come and watch the two little nations having a go at each other, I think that's what made it even more special. But yeah, the boys, I think they're still on the high at the moment, but I think we'll try to get over that win already, and focus on the Kiwis this week. But yeah, we did enjoy that win, to be fair.

Charlie (3:34)

Man, it's gonna be amazing. I've seen a lot of the Lebanese, they're gonna be supporting Tonga and Samoa. They're bringing the drums. So man, it's gonna be another spectacle this weekend, Toko, and all the best to you guys.

And thank you very much for all the hard work you do on that side, Docs.

Konrad Hurrell (3:49)

Thank you again for having me. MMT, baby!

SPEAKER_2 (3:52)

MMT, baby!
