Guests: Mata Harmeet Kaur Ji (wife of Bhai Amrik Singh Ji), Bhai Tirlochan Singh Ji, Bibi Satwant Kaur Ji, and Bhai Jarnail Singh Ji. What you’ll hear:

About the Podcast

Basics of Sikhi Podcast
A talk show about Sikhi (Sikhism) and all topics related.
Basics of Sikhi Podcast is a relaxed talk show about Sikhism (Sikhi) and topics related.

Most discussions and learning about Sikhi take place in a formal setting like a Gurdwara (Sikh temple), by way of Punjabi speaking Parchariks (educators) speaking to the congregation. In recent years, many educators have taken to online platforms such as YouTube & Facebook to inspire, educate and spread the message of Sikhi to the world, in English.

Our successful and popular YouTube channel, Basics of Sikhi (be sure to subscribe!) has been hugely appreciated as a new, interactive and modern way of learning about Sikhi, especially by the younger generation, some of which who cannot speak or understand Punjabi so much.

In a similar way, this Podcast, hosted by Sukhdeep Singh (Sikh educator at Basics of Sikhi) and Karanveer Singh (Sikh volunteer), is continuing that innovation by bringing learning about Sikhi to an informal and relaxed platform in the form of this talk show podcast. Sukhdeep & Karanveer will invite different guests to the Podcast to discuss various topics directly and indirectly related to Sikhi e.g. Sikh history, traditions, fitness, nutrition, mental health, music and the list goes on!...

We hope you enjoy this Podcast and would greatly appreciate your feedback. Be sure to follow us on social media!
