In this inspirational 6th episode of SUPERHEROES by Big On ‘Small’ Talk, host Manav Subodh sits down with Peepal Baba — Swami Prem Parivartan, the legendary environmentalist known as the man who planted a forest.

Known far and wide for his lifelong mission to heal the Earth, Peepal Baba’s story is not just about trees — it’s about roots: of nature, of community, and of human purpose. Born Azad Jain in Chandigarh, his journey from a curious youngster planting his first sapling at age 11 to the founder of Give Me Trees Trust is nothing short of awe-inspiring.

For over 47 years, Swami Prem Parivartan and his volunteers have planted and nurtured millions of trees — including more than 1.25 crore Peepal trees and over 20 million trees across 202 districts in 18 states of India — transforming barren land into thriving green landscapes.

In this heartfelt conversation, Peepal Baba shares:

Why good work attracts good people — and why patience and perseverance are the true virtues.

His candid views on modern society: how the average Indian youth today shies away from farming, nature and physical toil — preferring a life in malls over meaningful, grounded labor with a shovel in hand.

Why he never attends global summits or debates abroad, choosing instead to invest every resource into planting another acre of forest that directly benefits life on Earth.

This episode is a breath of fresh air — a reminder that change doesn’t happen overnight, and true progress begins when we reconnect with our roots — in nature, in work, and in our communities.

Tune in to rediscover:

What it truly means to care for our planet.

Why tree planting is more than an act — it’s a promise to the future.

How one person with purpose can inspire an entire movement.

The Logical Indian

“If you do good work, good people will surround you.” — Peepal Baba

Watch, listen, and let his wisdom on life, nature, and perseverance change the way you see the world.

Don’t miss this eye-opening episode — it might just plant a seed of change in YOU.

Double Standards | Big On Small Talk Podcast | Ft. Anuj, Manav & Guests

The episode that calls out what everyone’s thinking but few dare to say.

“She’s career-focused? Neglecting family.” BUT "She is family-oriented? Is she a gold digger who failed school and can't earn her own living?"

"Men need to be in touch with their emotions more." BUT "Why does this guy keep crying and complaining, so pathetic."

Parents will scold their child for using phones while eating meals, but those same parents will watch TV on full volume during those same meals.

Sound familiar?

In this brutally honest and thought-provoking episode of Big On Small Talk, hosts Anuj and Manav sit down with a few special guests to strip down the everyday hypocrisy we see — in families, relationships, workplaces, and society at large. From gender expectations to professional favoritism, from parental double standards to cultural contradictions — this conversation hits where it hurts.

But more importantly, it asks why we continue to normalize it all.

In This Episode:

The unspoken double standards that shape Indian households

Why “different rules for different people” exist at work

How we judge others for the same things we excuse in ourselves

The mental toll of living under society’s contradictory expectations

Real stories from guests who’ve lived both sides of the coin

This episode isn’t just a conversation — it’s a mirror held up to our collective contradictions. Expect laughs, uncomfortable truths, and those “wait, I do that too” moments
