Pumpkins, Puppies & Pop Culture Chaos

🎙️ In this episode of The Chunky Chat Pod, we’re catching up on life, celebrating Teddy’s 3rd birthday 🐾, and reflecting on how far I’ve come since last year — no shame, just strength and growth. I’m sharing my favorite fall things (spooky movies included 👻), shouting out my new fave podcast Camp Counsellors, and of course, diving into all the Housewives drama with RHOSLC Season 6. Plus, I’m kicking off a brand-new segment: my weekly Hot & Nots 🔥❌. Cozy vibes, pop culture chaos, and a little self-reflection — it’s all here. #FallVibes #SpookySeason #RHOSLC #Housewives #PodcastCommunity #DogBirthday #SelfGrowth #HotAndNot #PopCulturePodcast

Vegas Thrills, Summer Feels & Finding Balance Again

Viva Vegas, summer feels, and a whole lot of self-growth! In this episode of The Chunky Chat Pod, I’m catching you up on my trip to Las Vegas — from family time and foodie adventures to the thrill of an F1 driving experience. We’ll also dive into The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3, Episode 7, and chat about getting back into reading with Dating Dr. Dil by Nisha Sharma. On a deeper note, I’m sharing my journey with healthy lifestyle habits, the insecurities so many of us face in the South Asian community, and how I’m finding joy in being social again with the people I love. Grab a coffee (or maybe a peach bellini 😉) and let’s get into it!

Big Feels & Bigger Journeys

In this episode of The Chunky Chat Pod, we’re pouring a big, comforting cup of real talk. I’m diving into the messy, very human feeling of burnout — how to spot it, how to reset, and why it’s okay to not feel okay. Then we get honest about dating in your 30s after divorce — the awkwardness, the unspoken taboos, the guilt, and the bravery it takes to open your heart again. Wedding season might be winding down, but I’m sharing my favourite things about Punjabi/Indian weddings, the trends I could skip, and how I’d do things differently if I ever tied the knot again. And finally, we’re talking travel — from the Europe/Japan FOMO hitting hard on Instagram to the dream trips I’m planning and the type of traveler I actually am. It’s a mix of cozy, candid, and hopeful — like a long chat with a friend who gets it.
