Laundry at home it\u2019s a menial task \u2014 You may not even think about it. For cherubs however, the washers and dryers of Jones hall are an epicenter for laundry room manners, forcing cherubs to take a step towards independence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">NIKHIL DANIEL: Part of being respectful is taking your laundry out. And I think if you aren\u2019t there to do it someone can do it for you. My name is Nikhil Daniel. I think if you\u2019re smart and strategic with your laundry timing you\u2019re going to have a fantastic experience. If you\u2019re not so smart you\u2019re gonna have a pretty bad experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Busy times also pushed cherub Molly Chodos to do her laundry during the week.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">MOLLY CHODOS: The first week I did it on a Sunday, which was really poor judgement. Like Sunday was laundry day, so everybody was doing their laundry. There was a lot of pulling people\u2019s clothes out of the machines. So the second week I did it on a monday and it was a lot less hectic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Timing wasn\u2019t the only challenge for cherubs washing their clothes. Some were doing their laundry for the very first time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">MOLLY: When I came to cherubs I had no idea how to do laundry, so I had to look to other cherubs to get some help and, you know, really further my laundry education.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Not only is help being shared, but supplies are too.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">NIKHIL: I\u2019ve actually contributed to the sharing shelf. I came with some detergent pods, so if you forget to bring detergent, you\u2019re going to be okay.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">All in all, Nikhil and Molly found laundry at cherubs to be quite an easy process.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">NIKHIL: It was really accessible, incredibly easy and it was free. I thought it was pretty easy to get laundry done here.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">[MUSIC]<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I\u2019m Jake Lubin, thanks for listening.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">[MUSIC]<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Music in this episode is by Podington Bear<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ever wondered how 90 cherubs could share four washing machines?
