After 20 years of podcasting we now realize we documented the changes in the cleaning industry, pre-pandemic. In this episode Scott and our AI host cover the history from over 200 podcasts

This is the uncomfortable question under all the hype. Everyone—from equipment manufacturers to building service contractors—is talking about autonomous scrubbers, AI-enabled vacuums, and robotic floor machines. But as you point out, car dealerships can’t find enough mechanics, so how exactly is the cleaning industry going to support a growing fleet of robots that break, need updates, and require routine service?

In this episode we review the recent ISSA show in Las Vegas. We talk about the positives and negatives, and what is happening in the future for Bullen and the ISSA

Thanks for all of the comments about show # 200, and shout out to all of our past guests. In this episode, we are joined by our AI co-host to cover the changes with the ISSA show over the years and what that means for the coming show next week and the future. If you are at the ISSA show, look for me with the bow tie, booth # 5216

After more than 20 years, Jancast remains the first and longest-running podcast dedicated to the Jan/San industry. Over the years, we had thousands of downloads from professionals around the world.

When we launched, Jancast was audio-only, but in January 2013 we made the leap to video—and we’ve been evolving ever since. Fun fact: in our very first year, we won the 2005 ISSA Innovation Award.

In this milestone episode, my co-host Mark Warner and I take a look back at where we started, how far the industry has come, and what’s ahead. We hope you enjoy the recap!

In this episode, we talk about the coming Jancast # 200 and some new innovative cleaning technologies that are being developed or already here. We cover in detail Translational Resonance Cleaning and Probiotic Cleaners.

After my six-minute intro, for Jancast number one we got down to business with Mark and I actually talking about the ISSA trade show. From a technical standpoint, I apparently erased the real number two show, so we're calling this number two even though it's actually number three. Back then we recorded the shows on a digital recoding deck with microphones, no video, we got that around 2011. Even if you could do video there was no Youtube. We had to do some pretty tricky stuff to get the show in a stream-able state

This week we’re digging into how the recent immigration crackdown is affecting the janitorial and commercial cleaning workforce. With more enforcement actions, heavier fines, and fewer workers willing to show up, companies across the country are feeling the pressure..
