Join us as we reminisce about our experiences growing up as children of Punjabi immigrants in America. From our families' journeys arriving in the 1980s to building communities in Richmond Hill, Queens, we share the unique perspective of being raised between two cultures.


In this episode, we discuss:

  • The central role of the Gurdwara in creating community bonds
  • Family traditions and weekend routines that shaped our childhoods
  • The excitement of American fast food as special treats
  • Our parents' incredible work ethic and sacrifice
  • The cultural emphasis on education and comparisons with other children
  • Hilarious household rules about electricity, water usage, and AC
  • How we view parenting differently with our own children today


Whether you're from an immigrant family or interested in multicultural perspectives, this episode offers authentic insights into the Punjabi-American experience.
