This week we're covering all the mahjong chatter that's been filling our group texts. We dive into the latest tile drops, debate whether getting on the Crisloid waiting list is really worth it, and Susan is back with another edition of Sports Minute. Then we tackle a question we promise is all in good fun: Should men be profiting off mahjong? (Relax... we're kidding. Everyone is welcome at our table.)

Pour yourself a drink, shuffle those tiles, and join us for plenty of laughs, a few opinions, and maybe even a hot take or two.

This week, we're tackling one of the biggest etiquette questions in mahjong: Should players be able to make up their own table rules at public events? What happens when someone starts telling beginners to play by their rules instead of the rules everyone signed up for? We share our thoughts on handling these situations while keeping the game welcoming for everyone.

Plus, we're celebrating Catherine's birthday, Susan is counting down the days until football season is back (finally!), and Lauren shares her controversial opinion that everyone should just play with the NMJL card. Agree? Disagree? We know you'll have thoughts.

Grab your favorite drink, pull up a chair, and join us for laughs, mahjong chatter, and a little friendly debate.

We're back from our summer adventures and catching up on all things mahjong, travel, and life. We chat about sister fights (because are you even sisters if you don't occasionally fight?), share what's new in the mahjong world, and, after binge-watching Nobody Wants This, Lauren has an unexpected realization... Catherine is a shiksa, which, according to Lauren's understanding, is a hot blonde who's married to a Jewish man. Tune in to find out if she's right.

What happens when a group of Mahjong players with completely different opinions sits down at the same table?

This podcast is proof that you don't have to agree on everything to enjoy each other's company.

We're from all corners of the spectrum; different political views, different food preferences, different wellness philosophies, different backgrounds, and definitely different opinions on just about everything. One of us is trying the latest health trend while another thinks it's ridiculous. One loves bone broth, another won't touch a dead cow. We debate, we laugh, we occasionally roll our eyes.

But then we sit down at the Mahjong table.

And somehow, all those differences become part of the fun.

Join us for lively conversations about Mahjong, life, friendships, trends, culture, and the things we agree, and disagree, on. We'll share stories from around the table, discuss the latest in the Mahjong world, and prove that friendly debate and genuine connection can still exist in a world that often feels divided.

Because at the end of the day, we may not agree on politics, wellness trends, food, fashion, or much else...

But we do agree on Mahj.

Come for the opinions. Stay for the Mahjong. And remember: it's all love, until someone steals your joker. 🀄💕

This week on At the Table with SWFL Mahjong, we’re saying what everyone is thinking: some fashion trends need to stay in the group chat. We’re talking the styles we just can’t get behind, the mahjong tiles we are absolutely DYING to get our hands on, and the emotional rollercoaster of being stuck in a mahjong winning drought.

From questionable outfits to joker dreams and table superstitions, this episode is equal parts mahj talk, hot takes, and chaotic best-friend energy. So grab your coffee, shuffle the tiles, and join us at the table.

This week we chat new mahjong tile drop drama, mystery illnesses, questionable dairy choices, and a deep dive into Susan’s horse girl past.

Spring is still attacking Susan (or maybe it’s a sinus infection — the jury is out). Thankfully Dr. Catherine steps in with her completely official medical opinion on what’s going on and why cottage cheese absolutely should not be trusted.

Plus, Susan shares her insider perspective on the Kentucky Derby, what it was like growing up a full-fledged horse girl.

Come for the girls weekend chaos, stay for the medical advice you probably shouldn’t follow and the Derby energy you didn’t know you needed.

This week on the podcast we’re sharing highlights from our girls weekend in beautiful Cashiers, North Carolina with the girls from Mahj in the City, the same crew behind the Bambird Scramble League!

Mahj in the City brought players together for a fun mahjong filled weekend centered around open play, connection, and community, and High Hampton was the perfect mountain setting for it all. Between the cozy lodge spaces, incredible views, and nonstop games, it was such a special weekend at the tables.

We’re sharing favorite moments from the trip, a little mahj table drama, and why mahj getaways like this are so much fun.

In this episode Lauren calls mahj… and it was not mahj. Catherine is absolutely thrilled, and we’re breaking down how the wrong dragons made it happen and why checking your hand matters more than you think. Plus a little Mahj Lore 101 as we cover the Unger family and somehow end up discussing Khloé and Lamar drama too. Strategy, etiquette, and classic table talk all in one episode.

This week we’re covering the Masters, how we met and clearing up one very important Mahjong misconception:
they’re not blanks… they’re replacement tiles.

If you’ve ever wondered how replacement tiles work in American Mahjong or felt confused as a beginner learning Mahjong tiles, we explain it in a simple, friendly way.

Somewhere along the way we also discuss what happens if aliens take Catherine and why they’ll have to come get her.

Whether you’re brand new and trying to learn Mahjong, or already deep in your tile era, this episode is part origin story, part Mahjong myth-busting, and part completely unserious contingency planning.

Grab your tiles, pick your Masters favorites, and come hang with us.

In this episode, we’re talking about a question that’s been coming up a lot lately in the mahjong world and beyond: are we too quick to tear down women who are doing well? 

We share our thoughts following the recent conversation around Oh My Mahjong and explore what it really means to support other women—especially in growing communities like mahjong.

Then we get into another classic debate: are you more comfortable with guys or girls? (According to Lauren… there’s only one right answer.) We talk about being a girls’ girl, building strong tables, and why women supporting women matters more than ever.

We’re also joined by the sweet and seriously cool Giuliana Sisk of Palm Beach Mahjong to chat about her mahjong community, friendship at the table, and the Palm Beach mahj scene. 

Giuliana will also be our special guest at Marissa Collections on April 6, and we can’t wait to play together in person!

If you love mahjong, thoughtful conversation, and a little red-flag energy along the way… this episode’s for you.
