In today's episode, Katie has 30 minutes to become an "expert" on... Dry Cleaning! Are you like us and just drop your clothes off at the dry cleaner and have no idea what they do with them? Then this episode is for YOU! Get educated on what happens to your most delicate fabrics in the magic that is dry cleaning. And wow, HUGE spoiler but, dry cleaning? It isn't dry. Crazy times!! It also isn't very environmentally friendly, but it's getting better. Dry cleaning is as old as the gross woolen togas the ancient Greeks wore, and even ties into an incredible story of Black American history. Also, we peppered in some solid advice for next time you need to get something dry cleaned (although some of it may have been funded by "big dry cleaning"). This was a really fun one, so we hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
Highlights Include:
- How spilling kerosene on a tablecloth was a happy accident!
- Green/Eco/Organic Dry Cleaning 
- An incredible Black history story - from dry cleaning!
