Living In The Moment
Life has been sending Nikki & Brie the same message lately: Be present in the moment! Nikki & Brie kick off the episode by catching everyone up on their Dry(ish) January, Birdie’s New Year’s motivation, avoiding sugar, Matteo’s cute Trick or Treat obsession, and much more! Two different experiences led both Nikki and Brie to take a pause on capturing life moments with their cellphones and be more mindful of the beautiful moments with their children. First, after reading a book together, Birdie asked Brie to be cognizant of sharing special times with her when they were together. Then, a viral video of New Year’s Eve in Paris reinforced that subject with Brie. Nikki found some old photos from a track meet, not taken on a smartphone, that brought her back to an experience that had a huge influence on her life in the moment it happened and now years later. In grade school, Nikki was an outstanding athlete and competed in the ARCO Jesse Owens Games, what happened on and off the track shaped her forever, and the way some parents use social media today put it all in perspective for her today; you don’t need to document everything with your cellphone! Brie also shares a special Inspiration & Affirmation that focuses on taking chances and being in the moment. Check out the show this Wednesday when the Twin Love exclusives continue as Nikki & Brie are joined by Samer and Samir from the show, and they give updates on what happened once the cameras stopped rolling.

Dancing, Advancing, and Disney w/ Artem
Fresh off the Season 32 Dancing with the Stars finale, Artem is on this show this week! He’s back in Napa with the Garcia Twins, and to celebrate, Nikki & Brie pop open a bottle of wine to get the party started! Artem opens up working with Charity Lawson, seeing tremendous growth from her on and off the dance floor, her hard work, their standout dances from the finale, and what kept them out of the top two. Nikki & Brie truly appreciated what Charity brought to the show, the impact of the Freestyle Dance, and the importance of celebrating the accomplishments of the entire cast instead of trying to put down dancers they were not rooting for. And while Artem was on the dance floor competing for the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy, Birdie, Nikki, Brie, and their mom were in the crowd talking it all. However, getting to LA was a wild experience for Brie, who was traveling with Birdie and Buddy, had to deal with delays, cancellations, reroutes, two airports, dogs, and ladders. Yes, ladders on the Tarmac! Nikki was certain that Artem and Charity would be in the top two at the end of the night and shares her thoughts on the performances and Artem gives his insight into the approach for the night, scoring, and audience expectations, his respect for the other contestants, and which pro Nikki and Brie want to see back on the dance floor next season! The day after the Dancing with the Stars finale, Artem, Matteo, Buddy, Birdie, Brie, Nikki, and their mom went to Disneyland for a magical day of family and fun. Matteo’s new obsessed with rollercoasters, and Nikki learned something very important about the park: there is no Pixarland…yet. The kids loved seeing Mickey and Minnie and then Birdie got a special shout-out from Elsa, which made her day. This could be the start of a new family tradition, and The Garcia Twins are already talking about strategies for the next visit. To close out the episode, Nikki & Brie congratulate Artem for a phenomenal season, and they’re all excited about what season 33 is going to bring, and maybe that could include a Brie/Artem collaboration!

Clickbait is Wrong!
If you’re reading this, the finale of Dancing with the Stars season 32 was last night, and hopefully, Artem and Charity are celebrating a big win with the Len Goodman Mirrorball! Birdie, Nikki, Brie, and their mom were all in attendance to cheer Artem on in the finals, and we’ll have a finale recap soon! So, while they’re not ready to celebrate at this time, but Nikki has a bone to pick with a tabloid, and Brie opens up about her anxiety surrounding a business decision. It’s not often that you have a perfect week, so The Garcia Twins are ready to get on the mic and share what they worked through in the past seven days. Nikki has a problem with a tabloid that flat-out lied and painted Nikki, Brie, and someone they admire in a bad light, and then that tabloid took extreme measures to mute Nikki & Brie’s voices on the matter. It’s a prime example of a joke that was purposefully misconstrued to create clickbait. The Garcia Twins are here to set the record straight, call out the tabloid, and let their voices be heard! Then Brie reveals that after hearing what her anxiety was shouting at her, she decided not to move forward with a business deal because, after reflecting, she recognized that it wasn’t congruent with her philosophies, what she wants out of life, or how she wants to impact the world. So, she turned down a business deal and felt good about it. Nikki & Brie are ready to move past the static and embrace their truth and let the Beaver Moon reboot their mindset and release the thoughts that are holding them back. To close out the episode Nikki & Brie share an Inspiration & Affirmation from one of their favorites, Ralph Waldo Emerson, about connecting to dreams as motivation to live the life you want, and it’s okay if we all don’t have the same purpose. Nikki & Brie will be back on your feeds Monday with a great episode about their big Southern California adventure, DWTS, and much more! Please subscribe, rate, and review The Nikki & Brie Show!

This week, two BIG episodes of The Nikki & Brie Show are dropping on your podcast feed, featuring conversations with two very amazing, very different women. For today’s special Monday drop, Nikki & Brie welcome Ariana Madix from Vanderpump Rules on Bravo. After a difficult start to 2023, she’s on top of the Dancing with the Stars leaderboard, launching a new cocktail book, opening up a restaurant, and not letting anyone clip her wings. The conversation kicks off with he very unusual way that Ariana learned she’d be joining the season 32 cast of DWTS and why she had to tone down her immediate reaction. She also dives into her love of Britney Spears and why she’s so excited to dance the Rumba to “Cruel Summer” when she and Pasha hit the ballroom this Tuesday for Taylor Swift Night on Dancing with the Stars! And when you tune into Taylor Swift Night this week, look for Nikki in the audience! Nikki & Brie also talk to Ariana about her mindset when it comes to competition, becoming friends with the cast of the show, the support she’s receiving from her friends, and the shocking pre-show routines that make her a little nervous before the cameras go live Tuesday nights on ABC, something Nikki certainly has some experience with. Ariana’s also taking the world by storm as guest host on Love Island Games (one of Nikki’s favorites), a restaurateur and gives Nikki & Brie an update on the status of Something About Her, the sandwich shop she’s opening up with her Vanderpump Rules costar Katie Maloney in West Hollywood. There’s also an in-depth conversation about her new cocktail book, Single AF Cocktails: Drinks For Bad Bitches!

The Birthday Episode
Nikki & Brie are on an East Coast swing to do some press, and there’s a lot to celebrate! Twin Love, Barmageddon, MTV Cribs, and a BIG birthday! All of their hard work over the past few years is paying off, as Nikki & Brie will be dominating your televisions this week. To kick off the episode Nikki & Brie pass up the wine and champagne to Open Up with birthday cake as they’re about to enter a new decade with new possibilities and new dreams. Now that Twin Love is almost here; there’s a lot to talk about with how the show works and even a wild discussion about the reproductive system and how twins are actually created. They might not be certified experts, but they are passionate about identical twins, fraternal twins, and Twin Love! Brie is ready to commemorate her landmark birthday with something special: a tattoo! However, Nikki isn’t on the same page. Brie has been a little indecisive about what she’ll actually get, but she wants it to have a great deal of meaning for her, so she’s putting a lot of thought into it, and she’s pretty certain she knows what she’s going to get permanently inked on her body! Maybe. Going into 40, Nikki feels excited because it feels like New Year’s Eve for her, and she has a few career goals in mind. A lot has happened over the past 17 years since the world was introduced to them on national TV, while Brie has a few ideas of what 40 will bring to her life. And although they expect 40 to be a big party, they will not be throwing a birthday party for themselves for some very different reasons. As we come out of the 11:11 portal and prepping for manifestation over the next year, Nikki & Brie are grateful to connect with the Bonita Army earlier in the week and share some ideas for their shows to what they want out of the business careers to big dreams, they have a lot on the goal sheet to manifest in 2024! Nikki & Brie are also love with love, so they’re very happy to see Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce, and Nikki is adamant about highlighting the benefits of dating a professional athlete. Because this is the last episode that Nikki & Brie will do in their 30’s, they play a special edition of The 40/40 game that will certainly leave you laughing because some of their answers are absolutely absurd. This is why podcasting while eating birthday cake could be risky. To close out the episode, Brie comes in with a clutch Inspiration & Affirmation that she spent a lot of time tapping into the 11:11 manifestation portal to focus on love.

It’s their first real vacation in years just getting to be themselves without cameras around! Nikki & Brie kicked off the trip with a few days in the countryside, learning about the delicate nature of flowers, learning to make flower crowns, developing business ideas, and recalibrating their entrepreneurial spirit, and it ignited their inner Eat, Pray, Love. Pro Tip from Nikki & Brie: If you plan a City/Country vacation, go to the country first and then spoil yourself in the city. Then it was to Lake Como and a hotel that specialized in Aperol Spritz, lounge chairs, and beautiful views. Nikki & Brie had a chance to slow down, decompress, and be in the present moment without feeling rushed to go from tourist trap to tourist trap. To say that it was all a dream come true is an understatement. Brie literally had these moments on her vision board, and they came to life in Italy.

Instagram feeds, TikTok, and life experience have left Nikki & Brie with some questions and opinions on things like trying to ask the biggest superstar on earth on a date using a friendship bracelet to break the ice, where the kitchen sponge really belongs, sexy songs, and if it’s an outdated idea to keep CD’s and DVD’s in the digital age, even if they do have sentimental value.

Coma? Comma? ¿Como?
This week Brie takes a break from her summer vacation to return to Napa and hang out with Nikki on the mic. Brie’s been in Tahoe with the family over the summer while Nikki’s been traveling, so they have a lot to catch up on. First, in an effort to bio-hack and eat more cleanly, Artem has eliminated alcohol from his diet and is being more selective about what he puts in his body which is great news for his health but bad news for Nikki because she doesn’t mind a little pizza now and then. So if Nikki needs a cheat day pal for pizza, Brie’s ready for that assignment. Nikki also tells Brie the specific reason she isn’t vibing with “The Bear” on FX, despite its massive success. Brie’s fresh of an appearance on the season premiere of The $100,000 Pyramid, and it went well, for the most part. There’s one clip from the episode that has her mortified, and Nikki gets to hear it for the first time in this episode, and she has a surprising reaction. In other pop culture news, they’re both proud that Barbie and Taylor Swift are having a huge impact on the economy, but they question why the agenda of Tom Brady’s dating life is bombarding their news feeds and the topics that have been dominating their dinner table conversations like the heat wave, global waste, and endless greed! Nikki & Brie also talk over the birthday party plans for Matteo & Buddy, though one sister is more prepared than the other. The episode closes out with a timely Inspiration & Affirmation from Barbie herself.

It was a family affair for the Bellas; Nikki was watching with Matteo, while Brie was watching with Birdie, who had some amazing insights. Nikki's *husband*, Artem Chigvintsev, joins The Bellas to talk about his first dance with Heidi D'Amelio, her surprising revelation that she almost quit the show before the first episode, their post-dance reaction, and how this new season on Disney+ feels different than previous seasons. He also gives some insight into his unique approach to the next dance, why he hasn't started choreographing, and we learn why Nikki is really excited about Elvis Week on DWTS. While they have him on the show, The Bellas get Artem to join them for an all-new edition of The Elimination Game…but it seems that one of the Bellas didn't read the guidelines for the game (shocker), so maybe we're witnessing some unresolved issues from The Bellas episode of Celebrity Beef on E!. It's safe to say that The Bellas are at their best when they're breaking the rules, though. The episode closes out with Artem's contribution to Inspiration & Affirmation with something that he learned from Matthew McConaughey and uses every day.Vote for Artem and Heidi on Monday!

Bridal Bella Bliss
The Bellas are back from a whirlwind trip to Paris, and Nikki has A LOT to share…about her HUSBAND! It’s taking some getting used to, but there are some new words in Nikki’s vocabulary and some newish bling on her ring finger. This episode kicks off with Nikki sharing a lot about the wedding night she didn’t want to end, the joy that she and Artem have after exchanging vows, and the excitement about sharing this important chapter of their love story with the Bella Army on the upcoming E! show “Nikki Bella Says I Do.” Nikki & Brie have a special connection to Paris, and after spending ten days there, it felt like home. The fashion, the restaurants, the friends and family that traveled to celebrate with them, sightseeing and taking in some history and art along the way. Matteo made the trip and instantly connected with Paris, just like his mama. Brie might also have to figure out how to get Birdie to Paris soon because her little fashionista had major FOMO missing out on seeing all of the trends and styles happening all over France. Nikki also goes into detail about her wedding ring and how much input she had on the setting. Brie’s also noticed that her new brother-in-law is beaming too and that he’s captivated by the new jewelry on his ring hand too. Eventually, real life comes calling, and that means school supplies, Pumpkin Spice Lattes, and maybe a minivan in Nikki’s future now that she’s married! While they were away, The Bellas had a lot of messages on the podcast hotline, so Nikki & Brie answered questions about bladder control and C-Sections, comparing milestones of Birdie, Buddy, and Matteo. Nikki closes out this episode with an Inspiration & Affirmation about soulmates, explaining the path to marriage and all of the tests along the way and sacrifices to put family first.

School Year’s Resolutions
Let’s go, girls! Nikki’s dragging this week because she stayed up late to binge-watch Love Island, but tragically, it was spoiled for her! She’s seen a lot of growth from the cast this season, so she’s very proud of them. On the other end of the streaming spectrum, Brie turned the Shania Twain documentary on Netflix into a three-night viewing experience because she refuses to stay up late.

A Tale of Two Sisters: Popsicles, Pit Crews, Paddles, & Polls
Nikki and Brie had two very different experiences this weekend. Brie stayed in Tahoe with Bryan and the kids while Nikki went to Atlanta on a work trip that included riding in fast cars with Dale Earnhardt Jr. and hanging out with Bianca Belair. Nikki felt much better after a stomach bug wreaked havoc on the family, and the calm after that storm has allowed Nikki to live a caffeine-free lifestyle. She likes what she’s experiencing so far. Nikki took the time to research for her upcoming bachelorette party on her flight which led to some incredible ideas 33,000 feet above sea level that all centered around popsicles. While she was at the NASCAR race to represent her new show, “Barmageddon,” on the USA Network, Nikki's day was full of adrenaline rushes and triple-digit-speeds. Nikki had a few observations about the drivers but a lot more to say about guys the pit crews. So if you’re single and ready to mingle, consider swiping right on a tire changer or a jackman! Brie’s weekend was a different kind of exciting because it was full of nudity. While boating with the family, Brie encountered multiple people without clothes and without worries. Now, after seeing all that skin glistening in the sun, her internal debate about getting a boob job has ignited once again. The Bellas also catch up on Bryan’s guest appearance last week. And we get to hear how Nikki’s answers to Bellas Choice compared to the responses from Brie, Bryan, and the audience! Dipping a toe into the pop culture pond, Nikki & Brie also played Nailed or Failed, covering such topics as sharing DM’s from Doja Cat, Ryan Gosling’s underwear, Florence Pugh’s see-through dress, Elon Musk’s decision not to buy Twitter, Nicole Kidman kissing, and much more. The episode closes with a The Bellas sharing special Inspiration & Affirmations.

The whole Bellas Family has loved the time together in the great outdoors with adventures that include hikes, swimming, and nature photography excursions. Buddy has been on the hunt for snacks, Birdie's loved giving directions to all the adults, and Matteo has been throwing as many rocks in the lake as possible. Nikki & Brie came to the realization that they are in a much different phase of life now because of the visceral reactions to watching people do shots at the beach and candid disappointment with the latest crop of suits that the swimwear industry popularized for moms.

Acknowledging that her people-pleasing ways might have created a frantic moving experience, Nikki has vowed to stick up for herself and her family without hesitation moving forward. But Nikki is flowing freely now after some clarity and cleansing. Now there’s nothing but sunny days ahead for Nikki and her family. Brie’s weekend trip to Anaheim to celebrate Birdie’s fifth birthday was a great trip, but it wasn’t flawless either. But motion sickness, cranky drivers, and broken rides wouldn’t stop Brie and Birdie from having a great weekend together. And Brie beamed when telling Nikki about an airport surprise. A little distance didn’t stop Bryan from pulling out all the stops for Brie on Mother’s Day, and Nikki’s Sunday didn’t go to plan after such a wild weekend with a big move after Matteo’s nap schedule was derailed and could only be fixed with donuts and cheesy puffs, which leads to a great discussion about when and where to give into toddlers. Nikki also shares some exclusive details about her new game show with Blake Shelton and Carson Daly on USA Network and The Bellas reflect on growing up on a farm and love of Country music, Shania Twain, and Gwen Stefani. This leads Nikki & Brie to highlight some stark differences between the two of them growing up. Closing things out on today’s episode and connecting with their country roots, Brie chooses a Dolly Parton quote for this week’s Inspiration & Affirmation.Follow Nikki & Brie on Instagram for exclusive clips from this episode, and tune into The Bellas Podcast Instagram page every Friday at 12p EST/9a PST for an IG Live with Nikki & Brie!
