If something is happy the first time, isn't it happier the 2nd time? Us twice married people think so (Katrina, that is), so we thought, "Hey us, why don't we try re-recording an episode that people seem to love, and put that theory to the test?"! Except this time Katrina is the pro, and Anna is the con! Genius! Get ready for the swashbuckling romp that is 1982's The Pirate Movie!
Kristy McNichol and Christopher Atkins in Australia doing a "modern" take on the Gilbert and Sullivan opera, The Pirate of Penzance...what exactly is there not to love???
This award-winning film (Nominated for nine Razzies and winner of three) has been described by critics as "unwatchable" and "excruciating" and "literally painful to get through" and is a personal favorite of the Split Happens sisters. If you'd like to see it before you listen to the episode, it's conveniently located exclusively on YouTube.

Anna and Katrina decided that there are just not enough podcasts about a benevolent animated fox and the grown human women (woman) who have developed feelings for said fox, and these women (Anna) need their (hers) voices heard! Please join us as we take a not creepy at all trip down memory lane as we discuss 1973's Disney classic, Robin Hood!
ANNA-is obviously the pro because she would have it no other way, and honestly was quite frightening during the negotiations on this topic. She comes loaded with trivia, tequila, and love, and has no time for feeble minded attacks!
KATRINA-is the con, and for the first time might be terrified of the pickle she is in. Not because she can't scrounge up a con or two. Oh no, that's not it. ANNA IS TERRIFYING WHEN IT COMES TO THIS MOVIE!!!!!!!!! But tequila makes you do silly things, like ignore overt threats.

Hey!! Who wants to be able to perform complex facial reconstruction surgeries without going to medical school??!! To quote the hot European lady from Super Troopers, "I do, I do!!!". Better yet, what if we said we have an episode about a movie that is so cuckoo bananas it needed not ONE, but TWO action stars? Enter dancing queen himself Sir John Travolta and "nepotism makes me sick but the Godfather is still a classic" Nicolas Cage. Please enjoy our equally cuckoo bananas recap of 1997's Face Off!
ANNA is the pro-and in addition to some kick ass trivia, she also brings sass, tequila, trickery, and a touch more tequila. Will this lethal combination be enough to carve, heh, heh, a button push from Katrina?
KATRINA is the con-and while she feels confident that the pure silliness of this movie in combination with her steadfast resolve to not enjoy Nicolas Cage movies since Leaving Las Vegas should make it easy to avoid a button push, she DOES love dancing, and you know that sly fox Travolta can't help but sneak a booty shake in.
