On this episode, Paige chats with the founder of Goldielox and creator of the Menschie Mahjong set. Menschie Mahjong is a Jewish themed set of mahjong tiles that honors both the Chinese origins of the game and the Jewish celebration of it. Viv shares with Paige the idea for Goldielox and how the idea came to fruition when putting together her wedding registry. She wanted judaica pieces for their home that were beautiful and fun, but also had the quality to be an heirloom some day.
Viv shares how moving from Boston to Dallas introduced the game of mahjong by her mother-in-law. She quickly realized that the Jewish community in Dallas and across North America has a deep love and connection to this special, Chinese game. Paige and Viv chat about identity, being raised in their hometowns and how you can create a sense of identity and community wherever you end up in this world. To follow and support Viv, follow along on Instagram and check out her website.
Fact check - the movie Paige couldn’t remember in this episode is “Good Grief” (Dan Levy) on Netflix. Highly recommend!
