The Mahj Salon

The Mahj Salon is where Mahjong players come for the stories and stay for the opinions. It is a show for people who care how other players shuffle, stack, and score. Hosted by Mahjong Meets Moxie’s Jennifer Hohman and Cathy Herrington, it sounds like the table talk you wish you had recorded. Fast, funny, and frank, each episode digs into pet peeves, tile choices, money at the table, and the growing business of Mahjong. Some topics feel small. Some feel huge. All of them feel like conversations you have after a long night of play.

Bougie Tiles, Bad Manners, and Mahj Misdemeanors Jun 23, 2026

Show notes

Your tile set says more about you than your handbag. And yes, people are judging.

Jenn and Cathy spill on bougie vs vintage tiles, tile obsessions, and the “Mahj misdemeanors” that should be felonies, from renaming dots to touching $500 tiles with chicken‑wing fingers.

Five Key Takeaways

1. Your tiles broadcast your personality and status just as much as your handbag or outfit, whether you’re rocking bougie, vintage, or one beloved set.

2. Many players start with trendy “bougie” tiles, then slowly fall in love with vintage sets that carry history, stories, and emotional meaning.

3. Function vs. form is real: some players need traditional, easy‑to‑read tiles for tournaments, while others crave colorful, artsy sets for open play.

4. Sensory details—tile weight, sound, and feel—matter more than people admit and can completely change how satisfying your game feels.

5. Table etiquette is non‑negotiable: misnaming tiles and touching expensive sets with greasy fingers are “Mahj misdemeanors” that might just be felonies.
