TITLE - Buddy vs. The Elf

Breaking News: Nikki’s outfit to meet Santa was a hit. Last week, Brie and Kathy gave her a bit of a hard time about it when they were taping the show in Las Vegas, but the Big Guy gave the outfit his full approval. In this case, The Big Guy is Matteo. 

So Nikki took Matteo for his annual sit-down visit with Santa and ran into Bryan, Buddy, and Birdie there. All three of the kids had far different experiences. Matteo knew precisely what he wanted to ask for, and it caught Santa off guard. Birdie was hanging back to work on some arts & crafts and giving Santa some space, and Buddy was full of energy and Christmas cheer!

There might be a fashion controversy brewing in the world of Nikki & Brie. Birdie fell in love with a purse, Brie thinks it’s not a good fit, Nikki’s a fan and came up with some crafty solutions, but will Brie approve? If Nikki goes rogue, she could end up on Brie’s Naughty List this year. Again. Buddy is also working through some big feelings when it comes to having Elf in the Shelf in the house and it might be safe in the Danielson house for Chocolate Sprinkle the Elf much longer. 

Brie also gives an update on Birdie’s school year and the easiest way to sum things up is “How to Get the Ick in 10 Days.” Birdie saw something that her grade school crush did, and it totally changed things in the classroom and out of it. 

To get ready for Christmas, Nikki & Brie look back at some great memories from their childhood, from food to movies, songs, food, and near misses with Santa himself. 

Then The Nikki & Brie Show suddenly becomes a True Crime Podcast when Nikki interrogates her sister about some missing headphones. Will Brie comply with the cross-examination or does Nikki have permission to treat the witness as hostile? 

To close it out, Nikki & Brie share a special Inspiration & Affirmation that’s got a lot of heart.

Nikki & Brie are coming to you from fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada, with a special guest, their mom, Kathy Colace!  It’s a family affair in Vegas as the ladies are in town for the National Finals Rodeo and the George Strait concert. 

First, Nikki, Brie, and Kathy Pop that Bottle and Open Up with their weekend back in Brawley, California, and getting the family together for the 2024 Drummer Boy Dinner, a trip they all needed. Nikki & Brie reconnected with some early memories, and Kathy gave a history lesson on the Drummer Boy Dinner. 

Nikki, Brie, and Kathy also got blowouts to get ready for the George Straight concert, but not all blowouts were created equal, and they’re not afraid to point that out. 

Also, Kathy has boundaries and things that she doesn’t want to talk about: 

*Body counts

*One-night stands

*Strippers

*Nikki’s outfit to meet Santa

Vegas is a special place for Nikki & Brie from introducing Nickleback in concert, to wardrobe malfunctions, to taping Body Doubles, a blast from their past. 2006 to be exact. And some celebrity run-ins!

To close out the show and get ready for the George Strait concert, Nikki chooses two quotes from The King of Country to share for Inspiration & Affirmation, which leads to a group singalong.

Nikki & Brie are in the thick of it. Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, Cyber Monday, Giving Tuesday…there’s a lot going on and Christmas isn’t even here yet!

The Twins had plans to spend Thanksgiving together, but some unexpected events created opportunities for Nikki and Brie to celebrate the holiday in new ways. Then the sisters turned their attention to taking advantage of big deals on Black Friday and getting the most bang for their buck, but it’s a Tale of Two Sisters because one of them did all of her shopping online while the other took to the streets and covered all of her Christmas bases in person. 

Upon Birdie & Buddy’s request, Brie has brought an Elf on the Shelf into her house. But it’s not something that Nikki’s prepared to do for Matteo just yet. Matteo is turning into quite the artist and his latest muse is Charlie Brown, Nikki will explain. 

During the break, Brie took the kids to see Wicked and can’t stop talking about it; Nikki wonders if she will miss out on a huge cultural touchstone involving flying monkeys and incredible songs. Brie also discovered a new way to keep Birdie and Buddy from trying to steal her snacks at the movies. Is this a method that could also work for you the next time you’re at the theater?

Then Nikki & Brie map out what they want for the rest of their 2024. There’s one month left, which means you can still end the year as you wish. One is intent on not trying to overdo it this holiday season, the other is looking forward to creating balance and laying the groundwork for a better 2025. 

Nikki closes the episode out with TWO choices for Inspiration & Affirmation. Why pick one when you can have two?

This week, Brie is fresh off a big birthday, and the celebrations were far different between friends and family. She caught up with friends in New York City for a big night out, and when she got home, Bryan, Birdie, and Buddy threw her a family birthday party, and they might have been more excited than Brie was! 

As Thanksgiving approaches, Brie is grateful to spend time with the family, have her mother-in-law over, reconnect with her, and appreciate her passion for the chickens! Darlene and Bryan have been going all-out to rebuild the chicken coop to ensure Brie’s girls are safe, secure, happy, and dry!

Then Bryan joins Brie to talk about life outside of the ring. Is he actually retired? He breaks down how he’s adjusting to being more involved in the family on a daily basis and finding new ways to ignite his creativity. Some of that inventiveness could be coming up with absurd scenarios and wild questions that drive Brie nuts. He’s been off social media and has found it extremely beneficial. 

Brie also questions Bryan’s obsession with their heights and their leg-to-torso ratios. He’s fixated on it. He’s also not interested in carving a turkey again this year after she was thrust into action at the carving station last year. Will be back slicing things up this year? Maybe!

To close out the episode, Brie shares her pick for Inspiration & Affirmation, but it’s something that Bryan doesn’t quite agree with.

Brie is all in as a chicken farmer, but are the chickens keeping up their end of the bargain? She’s done everything to win them over, from feeding and cleaning to protecting, but Brie is just not seeing the egg output she thought the chickens would have by now. However, she has a few ideas on how to fix it. 

Thanksgiving is right around the corner. Brie’s getting the Danielson Family in order for the big day and looking over her Gratitude List to ground herself in appreciation and acknowledgment. Because of the holidays and the weather, Birdie and Buddy have been inside more than usual over the past few days, and it’s got Brie thinking about how different her parenting style is with Buddy compared to Birdie and creative ways to get them outside to play and get dirty. 

Then Brie has to make some tough choices with Rapid Fire Classifier: Thanksgiving. Brie HAS to decide what her favorite Thanksgiving dishes are and ultimately crown the perfect Thanksgiving food…but will it cause controversy or calmness in the comment section? 

The episode closes out with a peaceful Inspiration & Affirmation that will put you in the mindset to handle anything, even a wild Thanksgiving!
