The Zarna Garg Family Podcast | Ep. 28: Family Bonds and Fatherly Wisdom
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 มิ.ย. 2024
- Tune into this week’s Father's Day special, where my husband Shalabh and our kids dish out the messy truth about fatherhood. Laugh at Zoya's gym adventures with her dad, his desire to look all buff and big for you viewers, and Shalabh’s epic fails at balancing work and family chaos. We explore South Asian stereotypes as Shalabh encourages our daughter to speak her mind and defies the traditional Indian dad mold...something I’m still deciding whether or not I appreciate.

A father's support goes a long way. Zarna Ma'am - I understand how painful it must be for you to not have this whole-hearted support. But you broke the generational curse by marrying your husband who's a good father to his daughter. A job exceptionally well done ✅
Oh Zarna, I love that you finally said something nice and genuine about Shalabh 😂😊 I always wondered what he and his mom thought about the MIL jokes 😂
Love this dad. Lovely fella, smart, kind, chill, hardworking, disciplined, responsible, caring, calm, big dreamer, articulate, relaxed, sweet, funny, yet remains the strong silent type and lets his wife take the limelight, self effacing, and his pearls of wisdom and witticisms when he thinks he is being very entertaining and relevant are hilarious, even though unintended. Also, loves his wife but hasn't given up on his mom who lives so far away. Adores and always openly praises and raises up his kids. Very unlike the typical Indian male in many ways.
Zoya's story is long but I like her.But let others talk.
Wow my respect for uncle shalabh has only skyrocketed after this. Got a bit teary listening to zoya and zarna story. Hats off to king shalabh 🤴
Zarna, your last story made me tear up. What a great partner to have to such a fierce warrior.
Shalabh deserves an A grade for being someone who is empowering each of his family members, specially all the women in his family.
All Indian dads are not the same. I am 54 years old and my dad was very supportive and forward thinking - encouraged me to be independent financially and emotionally. Remember him always saying don’t think there is any difference between a man and woman and never take shit from a man. Feel blessed.
If there was a bad dad award, my dad would be a top contender too. Aunty Z, thank you for saying it so plainly. It’s hard to find a brown woman from your generation who doesn’t justify or excuse the bad behavior or faults of her father. It is weird when you have so many negative memories attached to your father. Thank you for putting it so succinctly and clearly. I appreciate you and your outspoken-ness.
Uncle Shalabh is the Best!!! Garg kiddos are very blessed to have Auntie Z and Uncle S as parents ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
That’s what attracted me to this show and your family is your loving discipline.
A to everyone. It's heartwarming to see how much respect Shalabh has from entire family and rightly so. Great that he is good example for the kids in how to treat and respect women. And glad that kids actually recognize the quality in their father and that they appreciate. What Brij said is deep, about having a dream. Regardless of how many jokes Zarna makes, it is admirable to see how much she respects Shalabh.
I absolutely loved this episode. Shalabh should be so proud of the influence he has had on his children. He is so calm, composed and such an eloquent gentleman. I also love how he also speaks highly of Zarna and all his children, even during the times when they all tease and disagree with him. A grade to this Dad!
My A once again goes to all of them as this family and their success story is truly a package and may god always bless this family ❤❤
A grade to Shalabh ! He is an exceptional husband and dad . I especially loved that he spoke out during that dinner supporting his wife saying that the reason that they are teasing her is because they know that she will get it right and will be unstoppable. Zarna , you are unstoppable !And you have both done an excellent job in raising your children.
Shalabh, real role model in so many ways . Hats off to you .
Great podcast as always, my A grade goes to Mr. G, i love the way you treat your wonderful wife and daughter ❤
Love them all.A- grade to everybody. Can't wait for their show/ podcast everyweek.
Big fan of Shalabh🎉
He is a phenomenal man.. love this family
I love to watch your podcasts with your family. Your kids are too good. I love Zoya may be I always miss having daughters. Zarna, always keep coming with new podcasts.
Hands down one of my favourite episodes! Shalab is wonderful 🎉
Amazing work
I wait for your new episodes.
Thank you so much for the great work,behind the scenes and wonderful contant
wow! Such a wholesome episode! Zarna, your experiences are so touching and they hit at a different level. A++++ grade to Shalabh of course!
Zarna - this was a special episode for Father’s Day. Zoya and the boys used the opportunity to sing his praises which he deserves 💕
This episode touched my heart! 💓
Such a beautiful episode! cheers
Incredible family to look up to! Love oozes out of you guys!
I loved this episode.The kids and Zarna expressed their love sooooooo beautifully. I appreciated the honesty of Shalabh. . I am trying to get my kids to watch you guys. You are an inspiration. You tackle so many topics which are so interesting.
Thank you. I appreciate all of you and your perspectives. Shalab is very wise. Zarna is a great partner. So nice to hear from Veer.
I would have loved to have parents like these 2.
Amen.
Kudos to ma'am for her great achievements. Guys, life can change-you never know... She was in an era where her one-word description was not 'humor.'"for her ❤
I will never get tired of these. Thank you for another amazing episode!
The best episode so far! Cheers, to the Gargs💕💕🌹🌹🙏🙏
Everytime you mention IIT I get traumatised of the past😂. I tried, and failed badly to get into. But the dinner table story was so nice. I see and I think it makes sense now to me how Zarna and Shalabh are made for each other
It’s always great to hear you all. But how many podcasts have you all recorded in a same day?😂
I'm sure they're taking advantage that Zoya is home.
Lots of content creators do, they record as many they can in one day.
Such a wonderful episode! Loved it! Veer and Shalabh rocked!
To me Shalabh is a mature modern father - who supports his wife 1000%. Doing hard things is very true - however the hardest is to follow your path and be successful to your own expectations and to your true level of want. Education is key. Not everyone is meant to be an Elon Musk or a Jeff Bezos of a Richard Branson not everyone 'wants' to be. The hardest thing to do is to be your true self in the face of cookie cutter mediocrity & empty superficial meaningless ambition. What I love and appreciate about your family The Garg family - is that you are your beautiful and inspiring selves. Don't be anything other than your true selves pursuing what YOU truly WANT at the level you WANT nothing less. Big love .... I so enjoy your sharing. 🙏🏽
A to Shalabh and also an A to Zarna for acknowledging her husband's support and also speaking for him. Veer is continuing to come into his own.
Totally Honest episode. It is appreciated you count your Mother in law your family.😊😊❤❤
You are all so lovely and beautiful people.. I enjoy all your videos .. Do not stop ever!!! please ❤
Thanks for sharing that last piece of "table story". What an incredible partner you have found for yourself, and such an amazing father to your children. Shalab is an amazing human being all around. And he was definitely correct, you are now unstoppable, sure all those people feel embarrassed about themselves now. Bring some of them to the podcast lol :D A+ to Shalab.
My father has been a role model for me.. with respect to the dedication at workplace and loyalty to the family. He had been one of the most hardworking and sincere person trying to be the best.. in whatever he did
. Dear Zarna, you must be really proud to have a partner like that and all your kids looking high up to him... Veer sharing his soft memories of getting a toy, whenever he had a hard day.. must have touched the father.. A grade to the truly deserving father🎉
I think not all are same and specifically there are different versions of Bharatiya (indian) Fathers as well. My father gave us (his kids) wings to fly and flourish. And so my friends' Fathers did the same.
(Bharatiya) Fathers:
Love - he expresses by doing deeds for you. Being there for you when you need him!
Trust - he lets you fly with no expectations
Respect - he treats you as his pride!
Discipline - he applies strictly with no compromise! 😇
One sports, one musical instrument made mandatory of a kid's choice, of course - LOL!
Eduation and Nutrition -he makes sure to provide kids best education and best nutrition via nourishing food, apart from mom.
Fun - he travels, plays sports, teaches defense techniques ( specially to daughters to protect oneself ) 👍 , enjoys family fun activities, celebrations 🤩
...
Father - the man of less spoken words, lead by an example!!
...
List goes on!!
At the least myself and my friends are blessed with forward minded, best of the bests fathers!! Bharatiya Fathers rock!! 😎❤ 26:51
Sounds a lot like Jewish fathers including my Dad A”H
Hmm...interesting! My dad has couple of Jewish friends including other ethnicities!! Bharat (India) is melting pot of many ethnicities!!
What wonderful parents and children! Every woman needs a father and husband like Shalabh!
you killed it in the end, Zarna... AAAAA to uuuuuu
That last part, the dinner table story you told us needs to be made into a reels.
All hearts for this episode ❤❤❤
This was great!!! Auntie Zarna you are so funny😂😂
Cheers Shalab … 🍻
Beautiful!
Love Shalabh. A family man, driven ambitious, Intelligent, articulate, caring, but willing to let his children discover and pursue their own dreams. That he is also an I.I.T. Graduate is pure icing on the cake. Sigh. Too bad he is taken. A grade to Shalabh.
I love it when Shalabh mentions his mother!
lol zarna and zoya expression when shalab said my sister-in-law, very nice person
❤ A grade for the whole family!
Nice to hear Zarna praising her husband.
The last story I’m going to cry 😢
Shalabh is the best in this episode . Such a nice father to these beautiful kids 💕💕 and ofcourse Zarna you are our always favorite inspiring mom 💗💗 Father is ofcourse a big part of our lives and my dad is 88 now , he will always be my #1 hero and I will continue to make him proud 🥰🥰
A+ to the entire family especially to Dad Garg ❤
This episode was beautiful, gave me a new perspective on life in some ways or at the very keast soem renewed motivation.
Also 10Mileper hour is really an insane speed, as an indian our treadmills runs kn km/hr and even then 10 is an effort
Subservient made me laugh😅😅🤣 That wouldn’t be a description of any woman in the western world.😂 Once again a great episode. You guys are all incredibly smart and amazing. I love the dinner table story. Shalabh is a great family man. Thank you for yet another interesting conversation.
If u want to be a good father, be a great husband first.kids learn more from observing how you treat others than from listening to lectures. Mr. Garg is such a great example
So happy to see the truth of Zarna-Shalabh relationship
A no brainer....'A 'grade to Shalabh all the way..
Shalabh A++ amazing man, father, husband.
The dad is a super dad.
❤❤❤
The scream ratio is real
Zarna!question!! I watched ALL the Garg podcasts on your youtube (i love them). You mentioned the dinnertable story twice now..this time you mentioned how after Shalabh defended you, the table went quiet...but im dying to know what the response actually was afterwards??im so curious! Like was it just ignored & everyone acted like nothing happened?? & if so, did you notice the peers talk more respectfully towards you & never joked about it again?? Curious on how Shalahbs strong response resonated afterwards!!! Would love to know those details!! Thank you❤❤❤
Congratulations Shalabh. My A grade goes to you hands down!
My A grade goes to Zoya and Uncle Shalab collectively
Yeah my A grade also goes to shalabh!
It seems real conversation.IITians not sure but he seems very calm supportive and intelligent ofcours!
I believe woman needs to nurture but man of the house is always driving force of any household.He can make or break things very easily....yes no doubt woman can still stand and make it work but that makes her journey hard
A to the father
as olways ❤
There are a cheaper line of phones that have location and everything . try xiaomi, mororolla, etc. youll get base models w all the good features and cheaper cost like $200.
I have a funny question for garg family, why all five wear same Clothes in all episodes 😂
Yes I noticed that too 😂😂
I think they filmed multiple episodes at one time while they are all together. I noticed this time too 😊💗
I think they recorded 8 episodes in one go. I saw something like that on Zoya's insta story.
A goes to Shalab.
rare to find someone from IIT with a little bit more empathy
CIRCA 1990s, BOYS from small towns in INDIA got their lessons of treating girls as equal in their colleges, IIT girls certainly kicks **** ( Read the book, who said she can't by Rashmi Bansal) and their fellow students -boys know that they are equal contenders at all levels., *no matter how conservative family they come from*
Ratio of girls to boys then was 1:250. it has improved greatly since then.
My relationship with my father was bad he left when I was little and didnt see me much when I was younger and ended dying when I was 19… before he died we did try to fix it cause he wanted it I didn’t but was willing to give one last chance and he ended up dying…. I ended up bitter and hate the woman he was with before… for personal reasons hahah
The last few minutes was endearing ❤
Mum and Dad get A grades
Ok on the phone story.. there's dumbphones in the market for young kids.
Mothers screaming is very much different from a father. A mother’s screaming is a love in its own form but same can’t be said about fathers
Brij was so quiet in this episode.. what was wrong nephew?
You can get a Motorola for $200-$250
Love the video. I do however think that a parent can be involved and spend time and yet the screaming may not always be justified or constructive. I think some amount of discipline is important and inherent in Indian parenting but screaming should not always be justified on the grounds of it being a trade off with involvement.
yes, I agree with your point, but I also see the point Zarna is trying to make because she said yelling should not be the ONLY form of interaction that Shalab has with kids
If you never scream on your kids , you are not spending enough time with them. That’s a fact !
I know Zarna tries to act funny. But its ok, if Shalabh praises his mom. We will be in the same place, once our sons are married :-). Even if mother-in-law is never appreciative of daughter in laws (mostly they will be critical), we can give them some credit for raising a good son (fairly good at-least).
Just buy cheaper Android phones which provide all the features you need for kids their age!
I think you guys are not aware that so many times in these podcasts you guys stereotype indians in a negative manner. When you say "you are not a traditional Indian man/dad..." And go about how you are better than them. But in reality many of the Indian dads who consider themselves as traditional and are good as your dad, don't deserve to distance themselves from the word 'traditional' or 'trypical'.
Love you guys ,
but sometimes you need to also look at your good sides and introspect if it's coming from your indian-ness, and speak it out loud.
Just to inform you guys Indian men are not like that (the perception you have) even in India. People have evolved a lot in last few decades and men are supporting their daughters like anything.
How American do you have to be to say there are no cheaper versions to iphone 😂😂while whole India uses other (cheaper) smartphones. A lot of them do use iPhones as well though but majority not
Zoya make your contributions shorter and to the point.
The daughter should talk less and let others talk. Its irritating how he interrupts in everything.
I was so jealous of brij's prom where i was getting counselling for government engineering college 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲
