Hey, everyone, we're hitting Rewind on 2025 on the Nikki and Bri Show. And what a year it's been.

But of laughter, of course. So get ready for fan favorite clips, unforgettable quotes, and everything in between. Here's to more laughs and more growth in 2026. All right, press play and let's celebrate.

Nikki (1:36)

The best of the best. This question I was thinking about, but I'm like, well, maybe this is trauma, but why do we remember embarrassing moments so vividly, but we can't even remember what we had for breakfast this morning?

Brie (1:57)

Trauma. That's why it's traumatizing when you're embarrassed. When I peed my pants front of the whole school during a play, it.

Nikki (2:03)

Was traumatizing for me, too.

Brie (2:04)

So that was. That's called trauma.

Nikki (2:06)

Your sister's dressed like a clown, then she pees her pants in front of the whole school. That was sad.

Brie (2:12)

I for sure think it deals with trauma to the brain. That. Yeah. Like something like that.

Nikki (2:16)

Isn't it weird, though, how you can, like, remember those moments so perfectly?

Brie (2:20)

It's wild.
