From chai breaks to plastic bag collections, every Desi kid knows there are some things you just can’t escape. In this episode, we’re building the Ultimate Desi Starter Pack — the must-have items, foods, traditions, and quirks that define brown households everywhere. We cover everything from masala dabbas and reusing every yogurt tub, to Bollywood classics, family WhatsApp chaos, and of course, the eternal “log kya kahenge.” Plus, we put ourselves to the test with a rapid-fire game of How Desi Are You? to see just how peak Desi we really are. Grab a cup of chai and join us for a nostalgic, hilarious trip down memory lane.
