The Zarna Garg Family Podcast

We are trying to lose weight, and we’re not too sure it’s going well. Don’t take anything we say as proper medical advice (I am begging you), but in this episode, the kids are making a fuss about what is NOT helping anyone lose weight, and the rest of us weigh in on what has been really helping us meet our health goals.

Do not offer me your snacks. I already know you made a bad decision. The Garg’s share our favorite (and sometimes disgusting) cravings, force each other to taste them, and then act shocked when your protein rich, super "gut" healthy suggestions taste like trash.

Our pants are missing, Shalabh wants credit for parenting he didn’t do (which is all of it), and let’s just say one of the Gargs shrunk a $10,000 jacket that wasn’t theirs in the first place.

Someone has to say it….wearing sunglasses indoors, your [fake] fur jacket, and your lab grown diamonds do not make you cool, and I’m not afraid to break the news. No matter how hard my husband tried, in 27 years, I discovered 0 aura. So what actually makes someone cool? Is it money? Confidence? Mystery? Tune in to this week’s episode to find out whether all hope is officially los or if there’s still a small, flickering chance to be cool at your age. Thank you to our sponsor.

The boys smuggled girls into their parents’ apartment, Brij drove without permission, and Shalabh somehow had the nerve to call Zarna an “ABSENTEE mom” despite not changing a single diaper or knowing where his kids are for the last 26 years.

From starting a tomato sauce company to launching matchmaking services, Zarna Garg’s entrepreneurial spirit has always been on display. But when daughter Zoya Garg dragged her to an open-mic event and introduced her mother to the world of stand-up comedy, the older Garg seemed skeptical. Fast-forward six years later. Now, Zarna Garg has streaming comedy specials, a best-selling book and millions of followers on social media. Host Elahe Izadi spoke with Zarna and Zoya at The Washington Post’s Global Women’s Summit. Before a live audience, the three explore Zarna’s journey to finding comedy, the changing face of the industry on social media, and how it’s never too late to launch a second act in life.
