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!

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.

It’s always a highlight for the three of them when they see one another on red carpets, and now Keltie, a triple threat podcaster, author, and TV host, is about to roll out her brand new CBS show, Super Fan. And making people’s dreams come true is her dream come true! She worked hard to get this show on the air, from concept, to taping, to being an executive producer! Super Fan is a competition where contestants go head-to-head to see who is the biggest fan of a performer and win the chance to do something special with their favorite artist. On Keltie’s new show, she has fans compete to see who is really a super fan of artists like Shania Twain, Pitbull, Kelsea Ballerini, and more. Getting the show made put Keltie on the brink of mental breakdowns and confronting some negative beliefs that were holding her back, and she shares a new practice with Nikki & Brie that has allowed her to shed that damaging outlook. Look for Keltie on the season premiere of Super Fan on Wednesday, August 9th, on CBS, and maybe you’ll see Nikki & Brie on season 2!

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.
