Mahjong, Misdemeanors & Mishigas | Ep. 74 🀄

Leora turns 53. Eliana has another UTI. One of these sisters is aging better than the other. 🎂🔥 This week, cousin Jamie of Mah Jongg & Mingle attempts to teach the MenOpod sisters mahjong. She brings decades of family tradition, a treasured 1942 mahjong card, and actual expertise. We bring absolutely nothing useful. Leora wants to learn a new skill and make new friends. Eliana wants to know if she can gamble, cheat, talk through the entire game, and still get invited back. Mostly, she just wants Leora to lose. Sisterhood is beautiful. 🙄 Somehow, a perfectly respectable game of mahjong leads to prison recreation, nursing-home table politics, Eliana’s questionable Scrabble ethics, couples canasta in The Villages, and their mother’s preferred response to personal questions: “None of your business.” Against all odds, Jamie actually teaches them something. Because underneath the family roasting is a little midlife wisdom: our kids don’t have to be our entire social calendar. We can still learn something new, make new friends, use our brains, and have a damn good time doing it. Preferably with chocolate. And people we can beat. 🀄🍫 Come for the birthday. Stay for the cousin chaos. Because life begins when your period ends… but apparently the UTIs are just getting started. 🔥 🎧 Subscribe, leave us a review, and share this episode with the friend you’d trust at your mahjong table—or the sister you absolutely wouldn’t. 🀄 Find our guest, Mah Jongg & Mingle, on Instagram and Facebook! 💕 Follow MenOpod: All Things Fifty Plus on Instagram and your favorite podcast app! #MenOpod #AllThingsFiftyPlus #Menopause #Perimenopause #MidlifeWomen #WomenOver50 #Mahjong #MahJonggAndMingle #MidlifeFriendships #Sisterhood #NeverTooLate #BirthdayBanter #PodcastForWomen Sent from my iPhone
