March is all about luck...or is it? This week's podcast is chock full of tips and strategies from the book by Elaine Sandberg: Winning American Mah Jongg Strategies. Grab a pen and paper and get ready for some great info to up your game. These tips will be helpful with our upcoming 2021 NMJL card too!

In todays episode Fern talks with guest Mindy Bogin about playing, teaching and sharing mah jongg memories. Mindy played both in the states and in Israel where she shared her love of mah jongg by teaching new players and creating social circles through the game. These are the tiles that bind and connect us to one another. They are the tiles that fill the “craks” in our lives with friendship, sociability and mental stimulation. Bam! It’s so much more than just a game to us all. Listen in and take away a mahj playing tip too!

Join Fern and her guest Lorraine Urist as they discuss Lorraine’s fifty year mah jongg journey. Lorraine learned as a teenager and developed a love for the game that went cross country from New York to California. Lorraine has taught over 2,000 players and has some great tips and strategies to share with us as well as some fun and heartwarming teaching stories. Listen in for some mah-ja-lus fun filled conversation.

Join Fern and her guests Erika Marcus and Lauren Kesten discuss their marvelous experience being extras on this amazingly popular Prime series.
