Ahhh clubs. We've all been in one, but have you ever heard of one with such joy? Or luck?

No, never.

Welcome to The Joy Luck Club by returning director Wayne Wang (Maid in Manhattan) the second in our 1993 mini season. Starring the voice of Mulan herself, Ming-Na Wen, and Adapted from a bestseller by author Amy Tan, The Joy Luck Club explores the relationship between Chinese-American women and their Chinese immigrant mothers. There's a lot of stories, there's a lot of trauma. Content warning for this episode.

Grab a chair and join the table for a round of mahjong and let's see how joyful and lucky this club really is.
