Episode notes
Ketchup Milkshake Gone Wrong
- Dennis and Reggie try a ketchup milkshake and make a huge messy blender disaster.
- The attempt shows playful curiosity but poor food-safety and mixing judgment.

- Researchers measured a robot comedian's jokes and found it was funny about 16% of the time versus 33% for humans.
