“Love the podcast, but the yelling/arguing is off-putting, and causes stress. Hopefully we can hear more calm family discussions. Thanks!”

“SO FUNNY. Every one of the family members brings something special (and hilarious) to the table. I love how the three kids are so close to each other. Also as someone who went through the NYC SHSAT grind (been a minute) I just want to take a minute to validate Brij 💛 Garg family, keep up the...”Read full review »

“Sorry but way too much misinformation being shared in the very first episode. A bit of a turn off. The mom proclaims she doesn’t know what’s going on, asks the kids who tell her, then she’s just like “No” … Kids say we never had the talk, and mom asserts they did. And, mom promoting abstinence as...”Read full review »

“Zarna is so funny. The family dynamic is witty, fast pace, comical with practical life advice thrown in with the drama. Brij is bold, quick witted and in on the joke. They all are and it’s fun to listen to. Zoya’s search for independence and self discovery while merging traditional Indian and...”Read full review »

“It so nice to hear another family praise and berate one another while in each others company……………..They are hysterical to listen too.
Zoya and Zarna are my favorites each episode. Smart gals who are trying desperately to talk some sense into the male members of their family lol”

“Love your show and I eagerly wait for the new episodes to launch. ❤️
My vote goes to Zoya in Home Remedies episode. Good job standing up for your mom and backing her up many times when Brij and his dad teamed up. Don’t wanna say anything about Veer , he’s just so cute and still innocent 💙”

“My parents were immigrants. I grew up convinced that I “knew” how things work, and it’s certainly not the old, backward immigrant ways. Now I’m the mum with teenagers who scoff at my old-school ways. I love your conversations with your kids where you challenge them with your wisdom & humor....”Read full review »

“I love every single second of this podcast. I mean it’s doing a great phenomenal job, cause coming from an Indian family, we do these talks a lot of time in a “hush-hush” but hats off to Zarna from bringing them to the world. It takes a lot of courage. I am lovin it.”

There are some really funny moments, even hilarious moments, but the show’s brilliance is its originality.”

“Zarna is an incredibly candid and witty host taking on topics that most parents would shy away from, and by doing so, gives us permission (and courage) to explore them in our own family dynamics. It’s time well spent - not just for the insights, but also for the laughs.”
