Zach Pozniak

Zach Pozniak, a fourth-generation fabric-care expert and author of "The Laundry Book," shares essential tips on washing clothes properly to extend their life and keep them looking great. He debunks myths about dry cleaning and stain removal, stressing the importance of mindful laundry practices. Entrepreneur and writer Joe McCormack discusses the significance of quiet time in our distraction-heavy lives, advocating for moments of solitude to enhance creativity and productivity. Both guests highlight how these practices can lead to a more fulfilling, intentional life.

Zachary Pozniak, an engineer-turned-operator who modernized Jeeves New York, and Jerry Pozniak, a veteran textile restorer for institutions like the Met, explain what dry cleaning really is. They talk about misleading care labels, when wet versus solvent cleaning works, museum-grade restorations, stain testing, and the limits of sustainable packaging. Short, surprising, and oddly comforting.
