The Scrub Jockeys come out in force to help (and help sympathize with) a listener who's suddenly responsible for cleaning fuel-soaked clothes on a tight deadline. Plus, Hanna and her mom have a lovely time extracting candle wax from embroidery, and Andrew finds out what's inside his basement walls.

Hanna solved the Mystery Of The Missing Pyrex containers in her kitchen. She and Andrew are also in the midst of some pretty significant home construction projects that they had to emotionally prepare for. And the Scrub Jockeys show up strong this week to discuss the history of dress cleaning, how to deal with clothes soaked in diesel fuel, and something else Andrew can't figure out.

Hanna and Andrew hear a food-stink horror story and try to help a Scrub Jockey clean her complicated kitchen sink. They also get to hear a bespoke reading of Pride & Prejudice involving muddy dress hems and questionable decorum.

Andrew discovers a very satisfying life hack regarding his Dyson vacuum cleaner. Hanna TCBed her Christmas tree and feels great about it. An experience repotting a plant has Andrew totally rethinking his Lomi device. And the Scrub Jockeys weigh-in on scented pine cones.

Hanna and Andrew hear from a Scrub Jockey whose life changed after spending all day cooking. They also talk about one benefit of cleaning up under a real Christmas tree. Plus, Andrew has a late-in-life realization about class, and Hanna is obsessed with a Bush-era economic recovery program for some reason.

It's Soup Season! Which means it's also Your-House-Probably-Smells-Like-Soup Season! Hanna and Andrew discuss how to deal with cooking smells trapped in your house during the winter. We also hear from some Scrub Jockeys with two very different stories about dealing with loved ones' belongings after they pass. And Andrew's attempt to gain favor with the literary elite gets stuck in the mud.

Hanna and Andrew spend today's show discussing tidiness, compulsion, and the twisted world of double negatives as they explore an article about housekeeping habits in Southern Living Magazine. (They also take a moment to consider low-rise jeans, skinny eyebrows, and side-parts, thanks to the same publication.) And they hear from a Scrub Jockey whose recent experience with family loss has her reconsidering her own belongings.
