  <description>&lt;p&gt;This week in the penultimate episode of season five, Jim gives the merchandise of Star Wars Galaxy's Edge a piece of his mind, Scottye does lots of confusing math, and then both hosts give the Mysterious Kingdom it's own royal castle weenie! First up, Scottye takes guests into &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Home Of The Mad King&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;, a walkthrough full of clues on the history of the kingdom's former (?) ruler to potentially earn a chance to recieve (steal?) your very own royal crown. Then, Jim enters a vast garden maze to find a &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Castle Escape&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt; of one sort, only to be captured by an evil wizard and forced to find an entirely different escape (one that maybe involves some sort of rolling and/or coasting).  &lt;/p&gt;

  <description>&lt;p&gt;This week, after a rousing double dip of PassFast (our show within a show), we send guests on a quest for delicious, wonderful POINTS. First up, Jim invites his guests to tackle the &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Colosseum Champion's Quest&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt; through the use of cheap carnival games and the wonders of virtual reality. Maybe you'll even get a shout-out at the Mysterious Kingdom's daily Colosseum Action Stunt Fight Spectacular Showcase Show! Meanwhile, Scottye has stumbled upon a castle. But not just any castle. No, it is the castle of the former King of the Mysterious Kingdom! Do you have what it takes to battle the spector of the king and his fiercesome golden dragon at the peak of our very own &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Boss Rush&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;? Roll for initiative and find out!! (Insert maniacal laughter here)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Also, Jim wrote a YA novel and you should check it out via the link in these very show notes. He'd appreciate it. &lt;/p&gt;
