Split Happens

Send a text

This week, the sisters celebrate Christmas, 80's animation, lots and lots of booze, and absolute stupidity with 1985's He-Man & She-Ra: A Christmas Special! Take any cinematic seriousness you might have and throw that shit out the window because it will not be needed today.

KATRINA--is somehow able to pull it together and lead the episode as the PRO. No need for trivia with this one; it's all synopsis, all the way.

ANNA--is as ready as anyone can be attacking the Christmas special for an 80's cartoon. She trained extra hard, and by trained, I mean she drank.

Good tidings! The Split Happens December Christmas train is taking a stop in Gotham City to celebrate a bat, a cat, and a disgusting penguin. Err...man penguin. A Manguin. Get your vacuum-sealed, skin tight catsuit and your army of rocket penguins ready because this week is all about Tim Burton's 1992 Batman sequel: Batman Returns!

ANNA- is the PRO and she has been gifted an early Christmas present because this one's gonna be a breeze. With Michael Keaton, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Danny DeVito on her side, how could it go wrong? A shockingly bad impression of Christopher Walken might do the trick...

KATRINA- is the CON and she doesn't understand what she did to deserve this; she's been good all year as far as she can remember! It'll be an uphill climb with this one, but she's ready to take it on.

Fah who for-aze! Dah who dor-aze! Welcome everyone to the first submission in the sisters' Christmas movie December! They start off with a divisive children's movie--the 2000 Ron Howard/Jim Carrey version of Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas. Enjoy!

KATRINA-leads the episode as the PRO and she has lots of trivia but will that be enough to cut through Anna's bad-takes distractions?

ANNA- sigh....Anna here, and once again I'm gonna need to apologize to all those who love the beloved heartthrob from a particular popular 80's movie. I don't need to get into it here, but you'll know it when you hear it and I don't want to get sued so just a reminder...this is technically classified as a comedy podcast so, please don't come for me.

Grab some blackroot and get your hands on Cherlindrea's wand because this week's episode is a dive into the delightful fantasy adventure film: Willow!
Starring Warwick Davis, Val Kilmer, and Joann Whalley

KATRINA-is the PRO this week and it's a good thing because this movie is the moon, the sun, and the starlit sky for her. She has lots of trivia at her disposal and she's determined to get a button push. Will she succeed? Listen and find out!

ANNA-is reluctantly the CON and will come out with whatever she can, be it garbage takes, misdirection,  or just straight up chucking an acorn at Katrina. She might even try to turn her into a pig, who knows?!

*DISCLAIMER FROM ANNA--"My deepest apologies for any unkind words I may have said about the red-haired community in this episode. I'm sure it will never happen again..."

Hey, who's ready for Jerry Bruckheimer and Michael Bay to teach us all about space?! Well buckle up, because this week the sisters talk through the extremely accurate disaster film in space, 1998's Armageddon. 

KATRINA-is the PRO and has seen this movie countless times. This one's gonna be a walk on the moon. That's like a walk in the park except, you know...in space. 

ANNA-is the CON and has one, and only one, trick up her sleeve: Tequila.

Are you ready to talk about a badass dragon with an even badassier name, virgin sacrifices, and a confusingly attractive Peter MacNicol? Because the Split Happens sisters definitely are. This week is a debate about the 1981 fantasy adventure: Dragonslayer starring Peter MacNicol and Caitlin Clarke!

ANNA--is the PRO this time and she is ready to smack any of Katrina's nonsense to the ground, with equally ridiculous nonsense.

KATRINA--takes the CON for this one and she's prepared to do her absolute best-ish to attack another beloved gem.

Jack Nicholson, Michelle Pfeiffer, Susan Sarandon, Cher...I mean, what more do you want?! This week the sisters talk through George Miller's absolutely brilliant 1987 film, The Witches of Eastwick.

DISCLAIMER: We refer to Jack Nicholson's character as Zamuel Samuel Satan a number of times and if that's confusing, just listen to our Warlock episode!

KATRINA-is the PRO this week and she is very happy about it, because this movie is very easy to love and tough to attack. Katrina's positive Anna will be coming with bottom-of-the-trash-can critiques and she's ready for it.

ANNA-definitely has terrible takes, but more importantly she wants to apologize to all those who like pistachio ice cream. She didn't mean it. But she stands firm on her hatred for balloons and vomit.

Happy Halloween, friends! We close out October with a bang--on location,  celebrating the pun-filled 1988 movie starring Cassandra Peterson, Elvira: Mistress of the Dark! 

KATRINA- is the PRO and has plenty of trivia and counterattacks on the ready

ANNA- is the CON and hopes to throw off Katrina's counterattacks with utterly nonsensical critiques

Telepods and gymnastics and peeling fingernails...Oh barf! This week we try to settle our stomachs and watch a beloved sci-fi horror, David Cronenberg's The Fly.  We talk about Mel Brooks, arm wrestling, an asshole baboon, and so much more!

ANNA- is the PRO this episode and she has tons of trivia to try and distract a queasy Katrina and catch a penalty.

*disclaimer from Anna: I had an allergic food reaction right before recording so apologies if I sound like I'm speaking directly though my nose.

KATRINA- drew the CON and not even sexy Jeff Goldblum will distract her from the gross-out fest that is, The Fly.

Alright everyone, who's ready for a monster apocalypse? Well step over the rope into today's episode as the sisters talk about one of their favorite 80's horror movies: Waxwork!

KATRINA- is the PRO this week and she is so excited to unpack this delightful horror movie, and though she doesn't have a book full of trivia this time, she does have an answer for all of Anna's silly attacks.

ANNA- is the CON and is given a bountiful basket of criticisms for a childhood favorite film with actors that didn't understand the "no moving" assignment for being a waxwork, a ridiculous werewolf costume, and a fantastic rubber bat.
