It's so good to be back recording after my big surgery. In today's episode I welcome Laurie Kapp to the podcast. We discuss so much in this episode! Our love of mahj, the devestating Cali fires that ravaged communities and left so many people homeless, mahj sets, favorite sections and hands on the card and how we both strive to share kindness in our games and in our lives. Cozy up with a warm cup of tea or coffee and listen in as we talk about our favorite game— mah jongg!!

(Fern menions it in the outro, but Liam recommends listening to Fern's other podcast, Grey Gardens! You can find it on Apple Podcasts or via your podcatcher of choice. It has a lot of fun explorations of the Edies and the history surrounding the titular estate and the varying documentaries and movies made about them.)
