I want to thank you for: 1. Making me laugh. 2. Encouraging me to practice more empathy. 3. Teaching me how to maintain and appreciate the things I own in this world. Parasocial relationships are weird and slightly embarrassing, but I’m grateful for you and your videos. Thanks. :-)
A surprising thing happened to me today - a friend called to visit but only gave me 20 minutes notice. I told them sure to come on over and except for 3 or 4 things that i had to put away, i was ready for a visitor. This has never happened for me before and it is partly because of your channel and a couple of others ( “a slob comes clean “ in particular). For me it was astounding. Thank you for all your tips.
Mack, I just want to say that what you've done in the last couple of months is incredible, Your new house looks amazing after everything you've done and also I hope you're going well.
Thank you for this video. I know how to clean, but suffer from depression and having something to watch that gets me up to do the basics helps so much.
It always amazes me how many people reach adulthood and don’t know how to clean. My mother taught me the majority of what I needed to know, but even now at 65 I still learn things I can use in my daily life.
Some people just don't understand how to keep their opinions to themselves when something isn't for them. I truly appreciate you doing videos like this because it helps those who need it and those of us who do know how to clean can maybe learn some new tricks and tips. Sharing knowledge is never a bad thing, no matter how pointless some people may think.
The first time I made APC, my husband was skeptical. “That’s not gonna work” Recently, he was cleaning the kitchen counter top. He shook the almost empty bottle and said “We need more mixed up”. Haha! He’s been assimilated.
I remember what your house looked like when you did the free clean of it with Jason; it boggles my mind how far you have brought it to make it your home. Thank you for bringing us along on your life journey.
Once upon a time I thought I had finally grown up enough to keep my house clean. Then I got married, and it was like having a toddler without getting pregnant. Then, he died and my entire world fell apart. I love watching your channel. It helps me remember that all hope is not lost on me. While I have improved over the years, I definitely could clean more frequently. I find solace in seeing the evidence that all hope is not lost.
I'm the eldest of 5 kids and my mother worked fulltime and then worked hard at home. I learned by observation, to clean and do laundry when I was home from school, to take the burden off my mother. I was personally motivated by my own need for cleanliness and order in my life. I also got pleasure from making order out if chaos. If I didn't iron my clothes, then the might not get ironed so I did them and expanded to do other family member's ironing. They were too young. Really, cleaning was a normal everyday skill for me. Now I am in my seventies and finding it more difficult to keep up, but I need to keep things clean!
Wish I had these videos back when I was a young adult. When I moved out of my parent’s house I had no idea how to cook or clean. I was never required to do any chores at all. I was used to the cleaning and cooking fairy giving me a clean home to live in and food on my plate every day and it took a long time for me to learn how to do basic cleaning and cooking.
My son is at university and 90% of the kids hadn’t been taught to do anything either! He’s helped them learn how to do laundry. Cook. Budget. Clean. It astounds me. You’ve done really well to teach yourself.😊
Loved the video! Yes, it doesn't matter what time it is, my kitchen is always clean before I go to bed. Even if I fall asleep on the couch and wake up in wee hours, the kitchen gets clean and is worth it every time.😂😂😂❤
So much fun to watch how you 'magically' transformed your home into such a cool place (kitchen makeover, painting all the rooms, etc.) and you very smartly record your work to make UA-cam videos for cash. Love watching maintenance steps and how you get it done!!! The silly commentary is probably what puts these uploads over the top. So good! You're such a motivating, lovable character, thanks!!!
The spray bottle bit gave me the giggles, but now I cannot un-see the scribbles and may never sleep again until I know the marks have been erased. 😅 Yes, I own a label maker. The label maker has a label on it “Label Maker” because I do have a sense of humor. Also, I’m leaving the dishes in the sink tonight because I won’t be sleeping, then waking up to a messy kitchen. Not until the scribbles have been erased. 😂😂😂😂😂
Mack walks OVER the boxes and puts something away. Me - Mack pick up the boxes. Mack puts something in the bin. Me - Mack PICK up the boxes. Mack puts something in the cupboard. Me- Mack if you don’t pick up those boxes I’m calling the police. ‘Alright alright alright - I’ll pick up the boxes’ Sheesh!
In my upbringing, I definitely had to learn how to clean things but I really didn’t click into a cleaning ROUTINE that worked for me until maybe 35 years old! Constant cycle of chaos, then clean that lasted only a day or two before going back to chaos. I wish I’d seen this years ago!
When I look around at these messes it's just so overwhelming I cannot get motivated I even try to do small things like in my bThroom but then I'm just lost destroy the mess i feel beat down. I keep watching all these videos for inspiration because you and others do help me a lot to get started. Thank you for your help in understanding my depression and how it might be contributing to the problem it helps me to know that I'm not just a loser.
It is very convenient to clean when you have few things. You need to throw away everything unnecessary, leave only the most necessary. If you have a thousand products in the bathroom - this can be very stressful
I agree with your tip about the dishes. It is so nice to come in the morning and see a clean sink. The other thing I remember was making the beds before I took the kids to school. Coming home to the beds done made the rest of the day seem doable😊. I make APC and love it!
After allllmost finishing my deep clean in november for it to be spiralled out by january because i don't know how to keep up with the routine afterwards. everything is either not dirty enough to clean or suddenly is too filthy tp touch with my sensory stuff. Edited to say I don't know why i said that except to say thankyou for these types of videos on upkeep and basics and deep cleans too. You help me a lot, I wouldn't have got to novembers level without you and i'm determined to get there again AND maintain it this time with your help.
Thank you for massaging my female ADHA brain. I grew up in a small extremely clean house where my mother did EVERYTHING. As a new wife and mother, I was obsessed with cleaning. As I got older and working and commuting 60 hours a week I started slacking. I became overwhelmed and with your videos. I began to look at things in a 3 foot space. Thank you for sharing your experience.
These videos are very helpful to a lot of people. When i was growing up we always had maids (I'm from the Philippines, it's common here) so I never learned much about keeping a place clean. When I finally left home and worked abroad, I had to hire a cleaner weekly and watched her clean so I can learn how to do it myself eventually. Living alone made me realize how much I didn't know about basic skills
Hi, Mack!!! I had to change my cleaning after having an infestation of roaches. It was the first time for me. I live in a mobile home and in the 30 years ive been here ive never experienced that. I wash my dishes before i go to bed. Trash goes out at night as well. I also vacuum every day .
I don’t typically comment on videos, but I felt like I needed to. I’ve been watching your videos for a while and I cannot tell you how helpful this video is. I grew up with two parents that were hoarders so cleaning was not a thing and often attempting to clean became a very negative experience growing up. Cleaning just in general was a skill I learned as an adult when I moved out, but maintenance cleaning is still a working process. Having routine cleaning broken down is appreciated greatly. I also wanted to mention how therapeutic your hoarding house cleaning videos have been, not just because of the cleaning, but the empathetic way you address the issue of hoarding. It’s hard to explain to a person who hasn’t dealt with hoarding that the hoard/ mess is just the physical symptom of the disease and think you address it perfectly. Thank you so much for every video.
You know what? I love this. I have been trying to explain this to my daughter in law. It’s nice to see someone else give a tutorial. I can show her this. Thank you
I was holding my breath when you walked away with the boxes, because all I could see was the 2 pieces of the boxes, you left on the floor. Ugh, I thought I was over that. I need coffee Thanks for the video, and picking up the trash🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I am floored by the ease of your bathroom maintenance. Oh yeah, I am a family of six I will have to sanitize daily. Until I empty nest. Go team get-old-fast!
When you were talking about cleaning the floors it brought back memories of my first apartment. I was 18 and still in high school. I couldn't afford a vacuum so I use to sweep my carpets. It was a one bed, one bath so all I had was the living room and my bedroom that had carpet.
I love to watch you clean and I learn a lot about myself just by listening to you! You are so kind and very funny! You have also taught me about mooses! You also motivate me to clean my house. I'm trying to get over being depressed. I was diagnosed with ADHD about 20 years ago. I was on Adderall, prozac, and xanax for 20 years and I had to get off of them about a year ago. Since then, I've been depressed, and struggling to feel okay again! I love you!
I finally just watched your other “how to” video as I really need help to teach my kids! 💜 This is an excellent addition I’ll watch again but with my kiddos! Thank you! I was raised by my Virgo Grandma who had her kids during Great Depression as well as WWII. She was a great teacher but fear was a real motivator in my childhood. I’ve had two gens of kids and suck at teaching since I don’t use fear and can’t find real motivation for them to see helping helps us all and helps them be more self sufficient. Thank you SO much for these videos!!! Hallelujah, holy sh*t! Where’s the Tylenol?!?! That’s where I’m at with teaching teens 😱🤣💜👍
Great video, as usual, Mack. I love that you lift up other channels. I've watched The Fixer now for over a year... maybe more. I don't even do any house DIY stuff, but I really enjoy watching what he does and how he explains it all. Top notch channel there.
i sanitize every other day mainly surfaces where i’ve put outside items on them like the counter from groceries or railings/light switches. I have young children and with viruses going around I try to clean. Otherwise removing basic germs with soapy water is fine
Hey Mack, you're back in your beautiful home. ✨✨I've always told my kids to work smarter, not harder. Something they used to do as kids was spill Coke or Pepsi on the carpet then grab a dry paper towel to "clean it up". 😂I cannot stand "sticky" anywhere, and the fact that it rhymes with my name double sucks. 😂👀
As an adult woman in her 70s with a pretty clean house, I thought I could not learn any more about cleaning than I already do but I actually picked up a few more tips from, MY MAN MACK! Plus, the chicken-scratching on the APC bottle was hysterical. AND, when I heard you mention BFE, I thought I’d die. I wonder how many of your viewers know where that is??!! 🤣🤣🤣
My son went off to university. I taught him how to clean. Do washing. Shop. Cook. Manage money. He’s been in shared houses. He has met one other kid who knew how to do the basics. He’s helped maybe ten who did not have a clue. I mean nothing. They couldn’t put a wash on.😮. One kid never washed up his pots and plates and declared, I have no clean stuff😂. Another spent his months money the first week then had nothing left for food. Another didn’t change their bed sheets for three months. There are definitely people who need help out there.😊
I have those same two cloths, the microfiber fluffy one for cleaning and the shinier ultra microfiber one for drying. They work great on windows, and especially the inside of the windshield. And only use water, and it comes out perfect. 😍
Wow, I thought I was the only one with butt prints on my mirrors. I was raised cleaning and raised my girls that way as well. They hated it. However about a year ago my now 22 yr old called me and said "Mom, I get it now. I'm so glad you taught me how to be a grown-up!" Her room mate didn't know how to clean or shop for groceries or do laundry. She actually been teaching her and some friends basic cleaning and shopping. Thanks for what you do. Even for those of us who already know how. Now, will you please do something about all that moose dust. I'm not putting up with it, son.
I know you mention having a bad back, have you considered at your height doing taller counters when you redo your kitchen? It is something we plan to do when we build our house this year.
I wash the dinner/dessert dishes, rinse and leave in the dish rack overnight with a teatowel over the top of them. Let them dry naturally then put them away in the morning.
Does anyone else hate those covers for the screws at the base of the toilet??? I get their purpose but can’t someone come up with a better design so they don’t fall off every time you touch them!😫
I can’t believe my new favorite channel is a cleaning channel. I’m having some sort of existential experience 🫨 my sweet grandmother is smiling down at me (I guess she’s a floor up from me within the layers of 🔥)
May I gently suggest that if a person has moose, you'll need to sanitize your food prep surfaces every single time. They'll get up on those counters when you're not there to tell them to get down.
I makes my brain feel free and relaxed when my house is in order. I can't relax and maybe do something for myself like play my dad's old records or paint my nails. I always think if you keep on top of things it's so much less work. Thanks mack we see lots of declutter videos on the Internet but I don't think I've seen actual how to clean videos. P. S. My cats are very dusty 😼
Hi, Mack I LOVE that tap/ faucet you have there! I would love one of those but I'm not sure they sell them here in Australia, I'd have to look it up. Thanks again for a great video! xx
Okay, not seeing anyone else mention it: you knocked the cap off the screw on your toilet, and the last shot of it about 17.5 minutes in showed it still missing.
Hot tip. When pouring alcohol into a bottle, pour the alcohol first, then write on the bottle with a permanent marker. If you spill the alcohol down the side, it will smudge the writing.
My mom always told me to clean the house. I don’t mean like some kids who were used as “slave labor” just that I was the only daughter and “girls cleaned” while boys “cut grass and fixed things”. The only problem was that no matter how clean I would make anything my mom would wash it over after I washed it even when it was completely spotless. She would always comment about how I wasn’t doing it good enough (even when it was cleaner than when she cleaned it). After a while I didn’t clean it that well since she was going to clean it after me anyway. 😢 When I moved out on my own my place was spotless. I had to move back in with my parents after leaving my ex and first stayed at a domestic violence shelter. Moving back in… it started all over again even though when I didn’t live with them she said my place was always clean and spotless. I gave up.
Here's a tips from a Swedish homeowner: I use fire to clean the kitchen once every week. When the shit burnt up you install a new kitchen and that is very clean. It doesn't work that well in the bathroom. I've found that the toilet doesn't burn, it just cracks. Stupid toilet! But remember to have the fire egstinguister (how the hell do you write that word?) close to you so you don't burn down the hole house. And please, don't forget to take out your moose before you start the fire. The moose will be very pissed for at least a week if you don't
I organize my papers in a symmetrical way and by the next morning, my cat has created chaos out of it. But I’m the “out of sight out of mind” with things like mail and paperwork, so I’m on a mission to find a Watson(cat)-proof way to contain the pile without putting it away. Life with Cats 🤪
I want to thank you for:
1. Making me laugh.
2. Encouraging me to practice more empathy.
3. Teaching me how to maintain and appreciate the things I own in this world.
Parasocial relationships are weird and slightly embarrassing, but I’m grateful for you and your videos. Thanks. :-)
Parasocial. I love learning new things. Seems to really fit. ❤❤❤
@@lindseypreston937 💯🥰👍
god this is the REAL problem. i was only taught to have panic whirlwind cleanings after months of neglect.
especially right before guests are coming over.
Yeah . I’ve learned to do One thing to completion. Usually i’m motivated to keep going after that one job :)
Bless you, i certainly understand because i am the same way for the same reason…..and its awful!
My mom was a germaphobe, so she taught me how to clean and sanatize.
Me too and now I hate cleaning.
A surprising thing happened to me today - a friend called to visit but only gave me 20 minutes notice. I told them sure to come on over and except for 3 or 4 things that i had to put away, i was ready for a visitor.

The first time I made APC, my husband was skeptical. “That’s not gonna work” Recently, he was cleaning the kitchen counter top. He shook the almost empty bottle and said “We need more mixed up”. Haha! He’s been assimilated.
What is APC?
You really have some cool decor in your home. You may have to put some links up for some of that😂😂😂😂❤❤
🤣🤣🤣
Nevermind I figured it out all purpose cleaner.. now all I need is the recipe 😂😂😂😂
@gloriafeck6636 I made it and explained it in the video
I remember what your house looked like when you did the free clean of it with Jason; it boggles my mind how far you have brought it to make it your home. Thank you for bringing us along on your life journey.
Flipping the bird to the bottle made my night. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤
Once upon a time I thought I had finally grown up enough to keep my house clean. Then I got married, and it was like having a toddler without getting pregnant. Then, he died and my entire world fell apart. I love watching your channel. It helps me remember that all hope is not lost on me.

Hold on to hope. Sorry for your loss. Mack is a great place for compassion and helpful suggestions.

I really appreciate the way you explain all the issues that surround a hoarding world. Thanks!
So much fun to watch how you 'magically' transformed your home into such a cool place (kitchen makeover, painting all the rooms, etc.) and you very smartly record your work to make UA-cam videos for cash. Love watching maintenance steps and how you get it done!!! The silly commentary is probably what puts these uploads over the top. So good! You're such a motivating, lovable character, thanks!!!
The spray bottle bit gave me the giggles, but now I cannot un-see the scribbles and may never sleep again until I know the marks have been erased. 😅 Yes, I own a label maker. The label maker has a label on it “Label Maker” because I do have a sense of humor. Also, I’m leaving the dishes in the sink tonight because I won’t be sleeping, then waking up to a messy kitchen. Not until the scribbles have been erased. 😂😂😂😂😂
Burp a derp cracked me up!! You are awesome!
Okay…but HOW do I spin kick a moose out of my kitchen?!
Make sure to stretch first 😄
😂😂😂😂
You'd be surprised how dusty cats can get.
😂
I can vouch for that I have four! 😹
It is so cool you ended up with a retro diner kitchen table. It sucks you couldn't restore the one from a hoard, but oh well.
Mack walks OVER the boxes and puts something away.
Me - Mack pick up the boxes.
Mack puts something in the bin.
Me - Mack PICK up the boxes.
Mack puts something in the cupboard.
Me- Mack if you don’t pick up those boxes I’m calling the police.

I like the clock in the bathroom mirror. Ive never seen that before.
I love you Mack you are awesome !!! I like that you always give shout-outs to other channels . Spreading the love ! Thank you Mack
I came for the cleaning vids. I stayed for the bedazzled jeans.
Thank you!

Hi Again Mack!! Thank You for breaking down how to clean everything in details. I wanted to ask you how do you clean vertical blinds?
Thanks for a reminder...😮
You have a beautiful home...love your color choices...🥰🥰
I really love what you have done to your house. I love all of the colors. It’s so beautiful. Huggs ❤❤
I love The Fixer channel too. He’s taught me a lot! He’s a really down to earth talented & skilled family man from New England.
I love to watch you clean and I learn a lot about myself just by listening to you! You are so kind and very funny! You have also taught me about mooses! You also motivate me to clean my house. I'm trying to get over being depressed. I was diagnosed with ADHD about 20 years ago. I was on Adderall, prozac, and xanax for 20 years and I had to get off of them about a year ago.

My cleaning angel. This was great for newbies to cleaning.
Nice of you to take the time to do this.
Have a wonderful day. ❤️❤️❤️🙏
I soooo love that medicine cabinet mirror ! 😃
Get you one of those upside-down Dawn. No flip top, no mess ...you'll thank me later. 😊
I finally just watched your other “how to” video as I really need help to teach my kids! 💜 This is an excellent addition I’ll watch again but with my kiddos! Thank you!

Amen to night time dish washing. And I notice that when you wash dishes you do not waste water by running it while you wash🎉
Dude...thanks for these posts. They are nice and help people. Enjoy your day man. 😊
Your house is looking really lovely Mack😄I love that you give shout-outs to other channels too, it's a lovely thing to do🥰

Love The Fixer UA-cam channel! His bloopers at the end are hilarious.
I love your work! Thank you
i sanitize every other day mainly surfaces where i’ve put outside items on them like the counter from groceries or railings/light switches. I have young children and with viruses going around I try to clean. Otherwise removing basic germs with soapy water is fine
Sent this to my son, who just moved to his own place. Thank you

Hey Luke!! Happy to see ya! Gonna watch and do my dishes at the same time. youre inspiring.
My 18 year old self needed this. Mum had no patience to teach us any of this. She still cleans my sister's house.
Hi Mack!! I’m so happy to see another video I’ve been always enjoying your content.👍
THE WAY I **LAUGHED** when you kept crossing out the APC tysm I really needed that
I saw you dry that big ol' knife on your pants before putting it away; haha, I've done that a time or two.
As an adult woman in her 70s with a pretty clean house, I thought I could not learn any more about cleaning than I already do but I actually picked up a few more tips from, MY MAN MACK!

I have those same two cloths, the microfiber fluffy one for cleaning and the shinier ultra microfiber one for drying. They work great on windows, and especially the inside of the windshield. And only use water, and it comes out perfect. 😍
Wow, I thought I was the only one with butt prints on my mirrors. I was raised cleaning and raised my girls that way as well. They hated it. However about a year ago my now 22 yr old called me and said "Mom, I get it now. I'm so glad you taught me how to be a grown-up!" Her room mate didn't know how to clean or shop for groceries or do laundry. She actually been teaching her and some friends basic cleaning and shopping. Thanks for what you do. Even for those of us who already know how. Now, will you please do something about all that moose dust. I'm not putting up with it, son.
I know you mention having a bad back, have you considered at your height doing taller counters when you redo your kitchen? It is something we plan to do when we build our house this year.
I live the backsplash tile. It looks like a basket weave. It looks cool with your colors. Nice ❤ oh. And I have two bottles of the APC. I love it.
This is helpful for me even if as a reminder. It’s gas instinct to see those things explained explicitly thank you!!!
Hi Mack! I really enjoy Nat's channel & agree she is cool to watch.❤
I found Nat Robb this week when she was mentioned on another Brits page Getting Tidier!
Saw you on lol cow queens cant wait to see this love your videos and your kindness and humor is so fun❤
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
Yayyyy surprise surprise! 🩵💪
Like your new glasses they match the house 😁. Your home looks great 👍
Cleaning is a skill I think. I bet you're enjoying having your own place, much easier to keep clean and tidy.🙂
26:09 I love your wall art. Faith no more.
The "Eat" sign in the bathroom will never not be hilarious
70% isopropyl is an excellent degreaser - like for greasy stovetops. It just dissolves the grease.
I wash the dinner/dessert dishes, rinse and leave in the dish rack overnight with a teatowel over the top of them. Let them dry naturally then put them away in the morning.
Does anyone else hate those covers for the screws at the base of the toilet??? I get their purpose but can’t someone come up with a better design so they don’t fall off every time you touch them!😫
I can’t believe my new favorite channel is a cleaning channel. I’m having some sort of existential experience 🫨 my sweet grandmother is smiling down at me (I guess she’s a floor up from me within the layers of 🔥)
😂😂😂
I don't know what it is about your videos, but it kicks my ADHD into gear and I get the need to clean. Not a bad thing, mind you :)
May I gently suggest that if a person has moose, you'll need to sanitize your food prep surfaces every single time.
They'll get up on those counters when you're not there to tell them to get down.
I makes my brain feel free and relaxed when my house is in order. I can't relax and maybe do something for myself like play my dad's old records or paint my nails. I always think if you keep on top of things it's so much less work. Thanks mack we see lots of declutter videos on the Internet but I don't think I've seen actual how to clean videos. P. S. My cats are very dusty 😼
13:59 77 degrees in your bathroom!! I love your mirror. It’s so coool ❤
Hi, Mack I LOVE that tap/ faucet you have there! I would love one of those but I'm not sure they sell them here in Australia, I'd have to look it up. Thanks again for a great video! xx
The spray bottle, marker -- I'm DIEING!!!!
Okay, not seeing anyone else mention it: you knocked the cap off the screw on your toilet, and the last shot of it about 17.5 minutes in showed it still missing.
Okay, the mirror buttprints got me 😂😂
Hot tip. When pouring alcohol into a bottle, pour the alcohol first, then write on the bottle with a permanent marker. If you spill the alcohol down the side, it will smudge the writing.
I very much appreciate this 😊
Thank you ❤

People really got mad🤯???
I’m glad I didn’t notice those comments!😂😂
Thank you from the appreciative population !😊
Nicely done video! Always helpful for those that need a "how to"
My mom always told me to clean the house. I don’t mean like some kids who were used as “slave labor” just that I was the only daughter and “girls cleaned” while boys “cut grass and fixed things”. The only problem was that no matter how clean I would make anything my mom would wash it over after I washed it even when it was completely spotless. She would always comment about how I wasn’t doing it good enough (even when it was cleaner than when she cleaned it). After a while I didn’t clean it that well since she was going to clean it after me anyway. 😢 When I moved out on my own my place was spotless.
I had to move back in with my parents after leaving my ex and first stayed at a domestic violence shelter. Moving back in… it started all over again even though when I didn’t live with them she said my place was always clean and spotless. I gave up.
Thank you so much!
Here's a tips from a Swedish homeowner: I use fire to clean the kitchen once every week. When the shit burnt up you install a new kitchen and that is very clean. It doesn't work that well in the bathroom. I've found that the toilet doesn't burn, it just cracks. Stupid toilet! But remember to have the fire egstinguister (how the hell do you write that word?) close to you so you don't burn down the hole house. And please, don't forget to take out your moose before you start the fire. The moose will be very pissed for at least a week if you don't
I got a self-dusting cat. Saves me sooo much time!
I organize my papers in a symmetrical way and by the next morning, my cat has created chaos out of it. But I’m the “out of sight out of mind” with things like mail and paperwork, so I’m on a mission to find a Watson(cat)-proof way to contain the pile without putting it away. Life with Cats 🤪
