Spotless

Andrew has a retraction, a correction and a delightful new cleaning discovery, all wrapped up in one! Hanna has a cautionary tale related to a cleaning product of her own. And Spotless' #4 fan offers some help with cleaning painted floors.

Hanna and Andrew tryyyyy to help a listener clean her increasingly-dingy painted floors, but is it a lost cause? They also hear from an honest-to-gosh expert on the best way to clean a designer lumberjack.

Hanna and Andrew have some Thanksgiving cleaning tips to keep you from spending the rest of the Holiday season doing dishes. We also hear from one listener with an absolute nightmare of a carpet stain and another who wants help cleaning his lumberjack. Yes, his lumberjack.

Hanna offers some very practical advice to lovers interested in bringing a feather duster into the boudoir. Plus, a Scrub Jockey explains the concept of a "fish litter box" and how to keep your house from smelling like one. And Andrew gets some (unsatisfying) closure regarding the weird Dyson logo he saw the other day.

Hanna is considering a big, post-fire-season project. Andrew watched someone clean a table this weekend and has some THOUGHTS. And is Dyson trolling us with a logo, or are we just missing the message?

Hanna helps a listener whittle down her cleaning supplies to just 5 essential products, and a recent purchase of fragrance oil has Andrew marching down memory lane once again.

Hanna has reached "new depths of crunch" as she learns how to make her own cleaning vinegar from apple bits. She and Andrew also help a listener who finds herself in a real sticky situation.

Hanna, Andrew and the Scrub Jockeys celebrate 100 episodes of Spotless with memories of cleanings past and at least one terribly disgusting story about vermin.

If you're a cop, you have to tell us! Andrew admits to a cleaning-related crime involving a pitchfork, some bad shrimp, and the world's most disgusting yard waste bin. Meanwhile, Hanna's mom is FIRED UP, and some Scrub Jockeys weigh in on discolored towels and Hollywood's betrayal of curly-haired women. 

Hanna and Andrew find out why a Scrub Jockey has been taking a broom into the shower lately. Plus, Hanna has a Laundry Room Mystery she needs your help with. And Andrew goes down a vacuum cleaner memory lane.

Andrew dug into a project this weekend that he promises not to talk about. Andrew also loves breaking promises. Hanna's living with a new foster dog and has the most important tool in the toolbox for dog owners. And a Scrub Jockey shares a very fond memory of cleaning up after holiday parties.

Hanna and Andrew discuss the strange bliss of cleaning up after a big party (possibly with a cold hot dog hanging out of your mouth while you do the dishes.) They also offer an ode to magnets, possibly the Scrub Jockey's best friend.  

Hanna makes a deal with the dirt devil to replace her hand with a cleaning tool. A disagreement between spouses teaches Andrew a valuable lesson about dishwashers. And my god, how can anyone even think about cleaning or not cleaning while our democracy crumbles around us and our freedoms are taken away by a council of religious zealots? (But you still might want to sweep your front stoop.)

Hanna recently stayed in an AirBNB with a LOT of cleaning rules. Andrew recently refurbished his ancient cast iron skillet and he won't shut up about it. A Scrub Jockey calls in (from her closet, for some reason) with some hot takes on garbage disposals. And, in the War On Dandelions, we all must take a side. 

The Spotline is filled with listeners weighing-in on the benefits vs frustrations of in-sink garbage disposals and with advice on composting in the city. Plus, Anna in Seattle finds a magical solution to cleaning up driveway stains!

Hanna and Andrew debate the usefulness of garbage disposals and whether or not you should remove a measuring spoon from its ring before you use it. They also critique some tips on how to clean your cleaning tools.

A TikTok suggesting that we should wash our toilet seats in the dishwasher has generated outrage, and Hanna and Andrew find themselves at opposite ends of this cultural divide. Plus, Andrew explains "The Kubota Principle," a chores-related lesson he learned at a young age. 

Relationships and cleaning…the two are inseparable, as we well know. Hanna and Andrew dig into an article by someone who says he lost his marriage because he didn't wash his dishes, but there may be more to it than that. And a Scrub Jockey presents an amazing (and actually fun!) way to divvy up chores.

Bissell wants us to start vacuuming our dogs with their new Dog Vacuum. We reach out to an industry expert for analysis. (Okay, it's Hanna's sister, and she hates this thing.) Plus, Andrew is very excited about a sink, because of course he is, and Hanna has a bug problem that's really been (wait for it….) bugging her! HA!

Some big changes in Andrew's life means some new cleaning challenges ahead! He and Hanna also hear from a visually impaired listener who's developed specific systems for avoiding messes. And the Scrub Jockeys have lots of advice for Donna, who's been dealing with a mouse-in-the-house situation.

Andrew finally comes face-to-face with a cleaning situation he's been dreading for years. Plus, in honor of Valentine's day, Hanna and Andrew try to help a couple with (let's say) differing philosophies about household recycling.

What appliance could you never live without? Coffee maker? Vacuum? STOVE? Hanna and Andrew review one Scrub Jockey's definitive list, from least-useful to most. And they try to help a listener who is FREAKING OUT after an unwanted discovery in her home.

Hanna Brooks Olsen just got a brand new appliance in her kitchen, and it came along with something even better: Validation. She and Andrew also discuss the ridiculous things they cram into their pockets while they're cleaning. And they try to help a Scrub Jockey clean her dang air fryer thingy.
