New players Dylan, Andy, and Kiiva join us for another round of pop culture trivia this week as we make our way through season five. We’ll kick things off in round one with a game about pop culture properties and pop culture people who share an exact name, before heading to one of our most commercially crass games ever. It’s a trip to the mall to identify the pop culture origins of animals you can get at the Build-A-Bear Workshop. And there’s still some surprises in store as we make it to the lightning round!

The Riddle
While waiting for Amazon.ca,
With Knives he should not play.
He just won't grow up,
But he'll take on a dust-up.
The story worked better in black, white and gray.
Answer
In the comic and movie Scott Pilgrim, Scott expresses impatience waiting for his delivery from Amazon.ca, so he can see his dream girl again. He's dating Knives, which is a bad idea because she's too young, and is in a perpetual state of arrested development until he takes on seven evil exes in a series of fights, or "dust ups." Still, the movie wasn't as successful a story as the longer black and white comic version (which finished well after the movie came out).
