An excellent safe way to clean what regular cleaners and soap won't, try using Castille Soap. You can get it in the health and beauty section. You can use it for household cleaning, carpets, laundry, toothpaste and more. We use it in the color manufacturing industry to remove the color from our skin at the end of our shift. It removes 95% of what other soaps won't work on. The only thing that works better is harmful chemicals.

Looks like u have some very cool topics but they're all about 40 mins. Wish u would do lil 5-10 min pieces. Obviously some topics need to be longer but there were several episodes I saw that judging by the title & description seems like they could be made smaller. Ppl r busy & I am interested but between not having alot of free time & having a short attention span, it'd be cool.
