The Viall Files

Welcome back to The Viall Files! Today we have another special “where are they now” update show where we give you updates from our past callers, to see what’s happened in their situations and relationships since appearing on the show.  We bring on our first caller who was struggling being the only single person in her work group, and had started having dreams about her ex. We find out how she handled the company holiday party and how shifting her mindset has changed her life. Our second caller was ghosted by a long term friend and wasn’t sure how to reach out or what to text her. Did she reach out, and what did she hear back?  Finally, we get an update from our caller that was debating moving abroad with her boyfriend, and find out if she was willing to take the risk.  We also have some written updates - our caller who had a situationship with her CrossFit coach and now has to see him at the gym, and our caller who was still crying daily about her ex 10 months after the break up - both write back in to let us know exactly what happened.  To catch up on all of these callers original questions please see the show numbers:   Original Episode numbers for callers: Episode Number: #519 Ask Nick - Deadbeat Dad Energy Episode Number: #515 Harry and Meghan Recap with Tara Schuster Episode Number: #442 Ask Nick - Am I A F*ckgirl?  Original Episode numbers for written updates: Episode Number: #537 Ask Nick - There’s No Medal For Staying Friends Episode Number: #550 Ask Nick - You’re Addicted to Missing Him   “Most people are better off for taking risks.”  Start your 7 Day Free Trial of Viall Files + here: https://www.viallfiles.supportingcast.com  Please make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to asknick@theviallfiles.com to be a part of our Monday episodes.  Join us for our new LIVE show on Thursdays at 9PM ET/6PM PT on Amp, available in the Apple app store.

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files: Bachelor Recap Edition! Today we are joined by comedian Ashley Gavin to talk about the finale of Zach’s season. We first discuss some Bachelor Tea - including Mike Fleiss leaving the franchise and Zach claiming that his final dates were aired out of order. Was Gabi led on to believe that she would be his final rose pick? Should he have told Ariel what happened in Fantasy Suites? We get into it all.  “Is the host supposed to provide guidance? I’d ask a stranger on the street.”  Start your 7 Day Free Trial of Viall Files + here: https://www.viallfiles.supportingcast.com  Please make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to asknick@theviallfiles.com to be a part of our Monday episodes.

Welcome back to The Viall Files: Going Deeper Edition! Today we are joined by Ariel Frenkel to talk about her time on this season of The Bachelor. What happened during her Fantasy Suite with Zach, did she know she was heading home, and what else did she wish Zach said at After the Final Rose? We ask all of the hard hitting questions that Bachelor Nation has been wanting to know - including the drama in the house, how she handled their break up, and if she was ready to become the next Mrs. Shallcross.  “We’re not having a conversation, it’s a monologue.” Start your 7 Day Free Trial of Viall Files + here: https://www.viallfiles.supportingcast.com  Please make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to asknick@theviallfiles.com to be a part of our Monday episodes.

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! We’re back to answer your burning questions about the world of dating and relationships. Before getting to our callers, we read an email from a listener who is having some sister drama before an upcoming wedding. We then get our latest Breakup Song of the Week submission, courtesy of Amanda’s personal vault. Our first caller took DNA tests with her sister only to find out that they don’t share the same dad. However, because her sister and her mother aren’t on speaking terms, it’s up to her to bring this to her mother and get answers. Our next caller is wondering if she should go on a date with a man who broke her heart ten years ago. Is it fate that they came back into each other’s lives, or is he just stringing her along? Our final caller is wondering if she should break up with her long term boyfriend because he might be a fuckboy. We discuss why he’s still in communication, and if fuckboys can ever really change.  “The ego isn’t always a bad thing.”  Start your 7 Day Free Trial of Viall Files + here: https://www.viallfiles.supportingcast.com Please make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to asknick@theviallfiles.comto be a part of our Monday episodes.  Join us for our new LIVE show on Thursdays at 9PM ET/6PM PT on Amp, available in the Apple app store and https://www.onamp.com for Android listeners.

Welcome back to The Viall Files: Going Deeper Edition! Today we are joined by actress Rachel Bilson to talk about her recent headlines about orgasming later in life, how she and Nick faked a relationship, and how she feels about dating, marriage, and open relationships. We then have a Texting Office Hours caller who has angered her friend after having sex with his roommate. Does she try to salvage the relationship, or are his actions red flags?  “Did you come up with these questions?” Start your 7 Day Free Trial of Viall Files + here: https://www.viallfiles.supportingcast.com  Please make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to asknick@theviallfiles.com to be a part of our Monday episodes.

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files: Bachelor Recap Edition! Today we are joined by Bachelor Nation’s Andrew Spencer and Susie Evans to talk about “sex week.” We first discuss some Bachelor Tea - including dating post-show and getting on Raya - before getting into the episode. How did Zach handle Fantasy Suites, and why does Andrew think Susie is to blame? Why was Gabi given a scarlet letter, is Kaity the final rose pick, and how was Zach set up to fail? We get into all the details.  “This is all Sean Lowe’s fault.”  Start your 7 Day Free Trial of Viall Files + here: https://www.viallfiles.supportingcast.com  Please make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to asknick@theviallfiles.com to be a part of our Monday episodes.

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! We’re back to answer your burning questions about the world of dating and relationships. Before getting to our callers, we discuss friendship and how hard - but rewarding - it can be to find your people. We then get our latest Breakup Song of the Week submission. Our first caller has a friend with benefits that has a list of “girlfriend criteria.” We go through his list and find out just how ridiculous his expectations and requirements are. Our next caller has a crush on her co worker’s client, and isn’t sure how to shoot her shot without stepping on toes and making work awkward. Is her friend being an unknowing obstacle, or is she interested in her client, too? Our final caller’s boyfriend scammed her out of $400 and refuses to give it back. How has he continued to dodge her requests, and why are they still in a relationship? We get into all of the details.  “If you don’t take big swings in life, you won’t have great things either.”  Start your 7 Day Free Trial of Viall Files + here: https://www.viallfiles.supportingcast.com Please make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to asknick@theviallfiles.comto be a part of our Monday episodes.  Join us for our new LIVE show on Thursdays at 9PM ET/6PM PT on Amp, available in the Apple app store and https://www.onamp.com for Android listeners.

Welcome back to The Viall Files: Going Deeper Edition! Today we are joined by Vanderpump Rules’ former cast member Kristen Doute to talk about all things Scandoval. Dating Sandoval and being close friends with Ariana has given her a front row seat to the news of Sandoval and Rachel’s affair, and she does not hold back in giving us all of the answers we need. When did the affair start, did Schwartz know, and where do Sandoval, Ariana, and Rachel stand now? And what scandalous moment did cameras catch after the news broke? “She’s definitely not the only one who faked an orgasm with Tom Sandoval.”  Start your 7 Day Free Trial of Viall Files + here: https://www.viallfiles.supportingcast.com  Please make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to asknick@theviallfiles.com to be a part of our Monday episodes.

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! We’re back to answer your burning questions about the world of dating and relationships. Before getting to our callers, we discuss what it means to be a “best friend” in your relationship, and if a romantic partner can ever be the same as a platonic bestie. We then get our latest Breakup Song of the Week submission. Our first caller wonders if she’s a fuckboy, because the guy she’s been seeing wants more commitment than she does. We dive deep if she doesn’t want a relationship right now, or if he just isn’t the right one for her. Our next caller has a very complicated issue, centering around the fact that his ex and his girlfriend’s ex are now dating each other… both parties have children, so the families are constantly involved with one another. Our final caller is worried that she’s scaring off guys by asking for too much too soon. We discuss the timing of her conversations with potential partners, and how they probably shouldn’t be happening in the bedroom.  “So you had this conversation with him when you were half naked?” Start your 7 Day Free Trial of Viall Files + here: https://www.viallfiles.supportingcast.com If you are interested in running a book club in your city, send an email to: DTYEHBBookClub@gmail.com  Please make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to asknick@theviallfiles.com to be a part of our Monday episodes.  Join us for our new LIVE show on Thursdays at 9PM ET/6PM PT on Amp, available in the Apple app store and https://www.onamp.com for Android listeners.
