Spotless is a podcast about cleaning

Is failing to recycle a form of weaponized incompetence? Also, what’s your Desert Island Appliance? Let’s subvert genders and talk about who does the cleaning.

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 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 the cram into their pockets while they’re cleaning. And they try to help a Scrub Jockey clean her dang air fryer thingy.

Have you ever put something off for, oh, years? Only to find that getting it done took, say, minutes? Yeah, same.

Vacuums play a central role in our lives, apparently.

Here’s a big question: Do you know what happens in the dishwasher when you start it?

A dog-sitting gig puts Hanna face-to-face with a grimy lifestyle that she and Andrew can’t quite wrap their minds around, as much as they try to be open-minded. They also investigate a couple of TikTok cleaning trends, one of which proves to be dubious.

Is our patron saint trying to kill us? Also, what kind of broom does Andrew need? And finally, death cleaning: Let’s talk about it some more.
