The Zarna Garg Family Podcast | Ep. 14: Backstabbing Family Members

The Garg family is all about micromanaging their way to chaos. From taking sides, to bribing, to the lack of accountability, the air is tasting quite salacious. And then there’s Shalabh, the princess, fooling the audience take his side each time.

A+++ to Zoya. And A to both Veer and Brij. I especially loved how Brij was laughing his butt off during this entire episode. All the children realize the ridiculousness of their mom. Little Veer articulating about Zoya’s emotional intelligence was endearing. Sweet children. Zarna’s heart is in the right place, but implementation needs an overhaul.

raise great kids like her first and then give her parenting advice

[@shyneray250]

I wish Zarna could validate Zoya's feelings. But love to Zarna for letting her kids express themselves ❤

[@nicolex5908]

I can only laugh at this if I believe that off camera/stage she's much warmer/kinder to them otherwise the blatant gaslighting tactic that she consistently employs in these episodes would be beyond concerning. Meaning I can only find it funny if it's only for the camera and the sake of a laugh.

[@Isham246]

Wow Zoya and Bridge articulates so well. Love these episodes. Have to say the parents should be proud of their kids the way they’ve brought up

[@senhorita1908]

Zoya is really nailing it, Her growth and maturity is way past her years. Yes moms love us bt they really can be a handful to handle...great work all 3 of you❤(kids)

[@Just1HotPringles]

I feel bad for Zoya as it seems she knowingly/unknowingly faces lot of sexism......it's evident from the points she brings up against her parents.....😥😢 However, she's most certainly the smartest, sensible, understanding and empathetic one amongst all!

[@hilairejoseph3345]

The bond among the three kids is amazing

[@tanjamuller525]

Agreed, Zoya definitely stood up for the family and clearing up communication. I've had as a mother these issues as Zarna and that if I listened better and didn't always need the last word, I would have saved my relationship with my four boys.

[@svatisingh1]

A+ to Zoya. Anyone who calls another person "too sensitive" is possibly a bit narcissistic and Zoya handles that comment with strength and grace :)) She just wants love - I wish she finds the love of her life soon :))

[@chenpinkofficial]

If all of Zarna's family podcasts are made into TV dramas, I bet the viewing is high! Wish you, Zarna, and your family all success!

[@RosadoVid]

This was hilarious, so good and relatable - picking so much on Zarna!😂🤣 and yet who is the glue and the most responsible for such a beautiful, wonderful, loving family. ❤

[@joannedavis182]

Zoya definitely gets the A. So articulate and authentic. All of the kids are articulate and authentic. I love listening to your family!

[@Joliefleur252]

Zoya could make such a great lawyer !

[@bashusubedi7871]

A+ Grade to Zoya because she is very articulate even though I know this is meant to be a fun interaction but She loves you the most Aunty Zarna❤

[@catiesmith3864]

“Okay waitlist, okay” is criminally hilarious 😂

[@akshaykhanna1131]

Zoya looks like a very kind-hearted and caring person. I agree that some of her views reflect the 'west coast' (Berkeleyish) perspective, which is why her dad doesn't see eye to eye with her and I am with him on that. Although she does look like a sweetheart. She is not sensitive -- this is so common in a family which favors boys more, I am with you Zoya and these issues never resolve even when you are 30+ and much more successful than your brother.

[@Greenway1234]

You’re on the waitlist!!!😅😅😅 That’s just so hilarious!!😅

[@alicecain992]

Thank you so much for this. Your authenticity reminds me of myself as a Mom. You all get an A for making me laugh so hard! Totally love you all!

[@riddhinayak7028]

A grade for zoya and brij for being articulate and bringing out good points on conflict resolution

[@katinikrichena1422]

😂😂 Aunty Zarna.. Exactly like my mom.. 😂 I see an image of my mom when you try to prove urself right every single time.

[@shardashetty7638]

Being sensitive is such an awesome quality ! Makes you more human Zoya 💕

[@user-bs2mz3fx1c]

This family is superbly entertaining .. love how the leader Zarna gets the entire family to participate and be alive in their relationships ❤️and that can be so consuming.. and creates a sense of belonging and each one feels more heard than in most families.. A++ to Zarna Garg !

[@saswatideb8828]

A+ grade certainly for Zoya in this episode for articulating her views in a very structured manner. Must say, Zarnaji , you and Shalabhji are raising three wonderful kids. May God bless you all. 🙏❤

[@artbertomedia]

Now I'm invested on the waitlist. LOL

[@palakrao3218]

This was probably the most relatable episode on the podcast for me 😅😆

[@smithaday9225]

P.s telling someone they are sensitive is gas lighting

[@pds7596]

It can be but when the whole family agrees it might be helpful to make a person self-aware. As a teen or in my early twenties as much as painful and embarrassing those feedbacks are they can be very helpful to grow. Zoya is a gem. If she needs to be a lil less sensitive it will only protect her from the world.

[@theriseofyousafzai8779]

@@kirstieb8025actually you can change how someone feels come on feelings aren’t set in stones

[@constantinebodien1887]

No it isn't.

[@ishavicky]

Putting labels on everyone and everything is a mental illness

[@zonunralte4742]

Love this....what comes through amidst these funny conflict resolution and pretend fight is that the familial love in this family is damn strong ❤❤❤

[@hiyawadhwa8777]

I totally agree to zoya that elder siblings and younger ones are raised differently nd sometimes we tend to carry those habits from our childhood to our adulthood

[@reshmashah2212]

Zarna would be perfect for an Indian soap since she loves the drama and wants to be centre of everything 🎉😂

[@vinayy9500]

Absolutely love your podcast and family. Never fails to bring a smile on the face! Also, A grade to Zoya as usual 🙃

[@soniagul5603]

This is great!!! Really enjoyed this❤

[@carmencooper7220]

Too funny. Even without trying to be. You all are amazing. 😻. Thanks 🙏

[@ashitamalkani3845]

Love the bond between the siblings 💕💕💕

[@divyav0423]

wait list was so hillarious🤣

[@smithaday9225]

I love this discussion..it felt so authentic. I think you all get A

[@dheemz]

All for money 😂 nothing genuine

[@rmt5132]

Poor Zoya … they always go against her … she’s smart and kind

[@coolyoda18]

This was hilarious. Absolutely amazing. I loved every minute of it. Zarna you are tops

[@jetsun685]

I enjoy all your family podcasts sooooo very much. You guy's are so authentic, funny, humble, real and entertaining ❤. Love you all and I wish you all all the success.Looking forward for the next family podcasts ❤🎉❤

[@sallyproto2355]

Love this family! So real and FUNNY And they’re all very good looking !!!

[@natashanicholasrodrigues5939]

Every parent parents according to the parenting style they experienced as a child. There is no universal standard manual on parenting and Zarna, your parenting strategy highlights your forte as a lawyer. When I listen to your podcasts, it is evident how you keep the family together and encourage your children to think critically.

[@Mandana-ue4rc]

I do not think I have ever met anyone who is so lovable and infuriating at the same time as Lady Zarna....😂😂😂

[@justarandomperson7664]

The whole waitlist bit was damn funny 😂

[@jjbjjbh]

Love Zarna’s comedy. But sorry. Just can’t agree with her parenting tactics. Zarna seems to be the most immature one in this family. Even little sweet Veer seems to be far more mature than his mom. If this is indeed their real life and not meant as a comedy shtick, my heart truly goes out to the three children. Knowingly Punishing one child for the misbehavior of another is just a no-no.

[@suhasinig3042]

😂tear eyes gets A+by laughing, Zarna cough gets C+😂😂❤

[@arushisharma1226]

I just love your family ❤ love

[@najmahusain2689]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ nice parents showing so much love ❤️

[@shs4503]

For some reason ,I find Veer the most mature in the whole family .He speaks calmly and is mostly well spoken 🤗👍🏻

[@LoretoEsTorres]

6:36 I agree with Zoya - in all the episodes that I have seen and heard so far is Zarna’s “need” to win any argument. Zarna gives a lot of zingers to get back at someone when her argument “fails”. Love the dynamics, though.

[@ronyboylive6934]

I feel terrible for Zoya but I'm also laughing my ass off 🤣🤣

[@Fatima-dj1sf]

I agree with Aunty Zarna ! I got to say your kids are amazing and well - rounded!

[@rutujabhatambrekar7361]

A+ to Zoya . As being the elder daughter she is really trying to make all emotionally connected. And My mom is middle child so she s too practical😂

[@pinksk85]

So relatable!! I’m in my late 30s…& when I get yelled at by my mum I do tear up…though not as terrible as when I was younger! 😅

[@ashitamalkani3845]

Moms are always the wicked witches 😀 with the angelic hearts

[@chandangraham]

This is an awesome Family. Remind me of my mom(Zarna) growing up.😂

[@mariaeuv7694]

Mom said she says sorry all the time😅 when she is the one that said "words don't mean anything. "

[@rachelpenndragon1926]

Everyone loves to blame mom till they grow up and have their own families. They will be back saying I wish I had listened to my mother.

[@aesthetics31]

Zoya is always my favourite girl❤ Authentic and feisty!

[@lindaibarra1823]

Veer sitting quietly and absorbing and paying attention to everything that's being discussed around him. 😀

[@ashitamalkani3845]

Love your family. It’s okay to talk to your mom various times a day.

[@hendy553]

Being the only child when I have fight with my mom she also gets so personal. First tears and then like even my son doesn't respect me. No one does

[@Babybluepretty01]

Not her kids wait listed that took me out 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@mr.kaushikofficial]

My favourite is Zoya ❤❤. I love her for her opinions I feel that she is the kind of girl which the world require in the need of hour 😍😍😍 She is great as a daughter, as a sister and a beautiful individual and deserves the best human INDIAN 🇮🇳🇮🇳guy to get married to 🥰😍😘🥰😍😘

[@carolynmerret7330]

Zarna - I’m Falling on the side of facts !😂

[@zahrazarrini8018]

Omg are we all living the same life?😅

[@belagurung3222]

A+++++ to Zarna. Love these two young handsome boys are supporting their sister Zarna even your parents gave you top grade. The youngest Vir looks so similar to his mother Zarna. Stay blessed, safe, healthy and happy. 💯👌👏👍☝🤞😍😍😍😍😍🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤❤fm- England 🇬🇧 U.K.

[@nom5205]

You guys make me look at my own life and wonder what I have been doing wrong. I have three kids a bit older than yours...and not a single debate, disagreement, argument or problem. Everyone happy and respectful. What have I been doing wrong...???

[@NiteshSood]

Hi...loved your unfiltered podcasts...authenticity....you and shalabh are so lovely . Zarna you are too good .

[@catherinejohnson7460]

Thank you so much for keeping it real. I think this is one of the reasons I’m laughing constantly throughout all your podcasts. Zarna and Shalabh you have done a fantastic job parenting your children. It really shows.

[@MG-jk3qc]

Zarna’s waitlist is hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@pavneetkaur4371]

She has the mental maturity of 12 years old😂😂😂😂😂 lololololol

[@djohn515]

Yu more mental than her

[@ballads2020]

Love the Garg family. True they are hilarious... But, kids thrive off of love and reassurance. Especially growing up in the American culture. I think there is genuine love between the family, so perhaps we just need to all understand how they communicate and make it work!

[@viewpoint-we1fb]

Zarna is a wonderful mother and a great person. I love her. She is a precious matriarch. Zoya is a sweet child and hope that Zarna reassures her at every step. ❤❤❤

[@mariamenendez1320]

Always A+ to Brij...so articulate

[@savithriedezoysa4364]

Zoya and also the dad 😂

[@vargasfamily282]

Zarna is a mother, lawyer and comedian. That is a powerful combination! Zoya, Brij and Veer are expressing themselves very well. Money equals survival. I agree with Zoya, yes. The Garg Family is more than money. ✨💛✨

[@mariaeuv7694]

All dads go to sleep and work away when they get upset😅

[@tanjamuller525]

Zarna I am so agreeing with you on your opinions and I learned that my children have an opinion too. It's important for the children to be respectful and that way the Mom won't get fired up.😂

[@amberrodriguez9559]

She said "you're on the wait list" to Zoya asking if she's her best friend. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Then add in Shallabh and Zarna bickering I love it ❤ Such a traditional AMERICAN family. Lmao

[@aakankshanahire755]

Zoya!!! A+ all the way❤

[@yahyaamir146]

Great job Zarna, keep at it, never let up. We empathise with your struggles, martyr fr. As for the kids, they will naturally come to terms once they have children of their own.

[@abhinavburman4554]

Hammering 😂😂😂

[@ashitamalkani3845]

Zoya - gets A******** her love for the family shines thru

[@user-sp9qf5tc2e]

I wish Zarna wasn’t so mean to Zoya I know some of it is for show I get it she’s a comedian, but still she’s takes it too far. She’s funny I just kind of started to get into her and her comedy but sometimes her controlling nature comes through her jokes and it’s just not funny. Sometimes she’s hurtful and I can tell she doesn’t mean to be she is a newer comic and she’s just really trying to put herself out there but sometimes she can come off like she’s better than everybody else and it’s just too much sometimes. I like her and I mostly watch this because her kids are so sweet. She has so much to be proud of with them and her husband is really nice ! The whole family dynamic is really fun and I think she did a great job with a family podcast because not too many other families have podcasts together usually people just do it individually ,and it’s cool that she takes time to listen to her children … but she’s very passive rude. Definitely an “ uppity New York snob”

[@savitaharry4537]

Reminds me of my family ❤️😁

[@amberrodriguez9559]

She said "you're on the wait list" to Zoya asking if she's her best friend. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Then add in Shallabh and Zarna bickering ❤ Such a traditional dysfunctional AMERICAN family.. makes me feel at home. Lol😅

[@swathisudarshan6665]

Somehow the 3 kids are really sane. Dont know how😂

[@Taaraaa20]

I feel so bad for zoya cuz maybe I also experience this in my family

[@pondernwonder]

'A' grade to Zoya because she wanted to visit Oman!

[@denisebulgariu964]

A grade to Zarna !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@shivanshc]

A+ to Zoya | Zarna comes a close second

[@mn8696]

Zarna gets the A just because of the ‘wait list’ - the best - too funny.

[@stuuti2]

Always A+ to Zoya!

Poor zoya, on the waitlist. Lol.. so articulate

@2:30 - Shalab's timing. hahah

[@marmes868]

Good Job boys

[@aiswaryaaviswanathan2267]

Awww!! Zoya s so precious ❤️

[@randebrown4185]

I agree … Zarna is too hard on DIdi . There’s a unspoken and unexamined psychological component in this issue resembling jealousy . I recommend therapy.

[@karunasreejetty917]

I agree, seems like Zarna and Zoya are competing to be in the mother role of the family. While Zoya does a fantastic job at it, Zarna feels jealous her role is diminished.. Also feels like Zarna really wants approval from Brij, but he is always on his sister’s side while Zoya feels unappreciated and alone while doing all the work in the house and she takes it out on Zoya. Shalab and Veer are neutral to this Drama.

[@Deepali2010]

Omg! My 21 year old daughter is exactly like Zoya. We have the same relationship 😂😂

[@ajaybabupatel1665]

Look the face of zarna at the grade segment seeking for grade😂😂😂

[@tanjamuller525]

My dearest Zarna. Your cough concerns me greatly!!!❤ Please let me share with you a process to get rid of it. I don't want you ending up in the hospital!

[@roshnisitm685]

I am starting to think that Zarna started these podcasts just to show off her amazing kids to the world!
