Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files: Bachelor Recap Edition! We're back with radio host Julia Cunningham to discuss the fourth episode of Zach's season. We start out by covering the week's Bachelor Tea, including how Nick rattled cages with last week's episode, rumors that Christina flirted with the other women on night one, and Michelle's comments on Clayton and Nayte. We then dive into this week's episode and discuss Katherine's 1:1 date in the Bahamas, the drama between Kylie and Anastasia on their group date, and Brooklyn's ATV jungle date. Who is a front runner, who could be a dark horse, and who will be going home? And we discuss what drama could unfold based on the ominous trailer for next week.

E540 Ask Nick - My Mom Runs My Dating Apps

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 how to overcome dating app fatigue and feeling overwhelmed, especially in the phases between matching and going on a date. Then, we have our most recent Breakup Song of the Week submission. Our first caller met a British man on her recent cruise and isn't sure if she should shoot her shot and pursue long distance. Is their connection based on their vacation spark, or compatibility? Our next caller is concerned that moving in with her boyfriend has led to relationship problems. We discuss the difference between a clean, defined break and a vague undefined relationship, and how it's difficult but important to not feel bad for prioritizing your needs. Our final caller needs help figuring out if she should continue letting her mom run her dating apps. How can she regain control of her dating life? "It's just you and I talking here. Do you want to be with your boyfriend?"

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files, Going Deeper Edition! Today we are joined by reality TV star Joey Zauzig. Before getting into the interview, we discuss Grammy performances and losses, and play F*ck, Marry, Kill with award shows.

We then bring on our Texting Office Hours caller who needs to end a situationship after he continues to violate her boundaries.

E538 Bachelor Recap with Elizabeth Wagmeister

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files: Bachelor Recap Edition! We're back with journalist and friend of show, Elizabeth Wagmeister, to discuss the third episode of Zach's season. We start out by covering the week's Bachelor Tea, including some headlines about Nick and why The Bachelor isn't concerned with keeping up with Love is Blind. We dive into this week's episode and discuss Kaity's one on one sleepover date (what actually happened, and did they sleep in that tent?), the Bachelor Bowl 5, and Aly's skydiving adventure. Also, the cocktail-turned-pool party, several women self-eliminating, and the shocking final rose given out. Why is Zach the ideal Bachelor, who will turn into the villain now that Christina is gone, and what can we expect when travel begins next week? "Maybe ABC is putting the viewers' money where their mouth is."

E537 Ask Nick - There's No Medal For Staying Friends

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 Amanda's trip to Vegas, Ali matching with a British man on Hinge, and we Yay-SMR a listener who ended a 10 year long situationship. Finally, we have our most recent Breakup Song of the Week submission. Our first caller is debating pursuing the woman her ex girlfriend cheated on her with. Do they have a connection, or is the instinct out of spite? Our next caller has a long distance boyfriend that has a lot of opinions and criticisms of the outfits she wears. We discuss that it might be less about the outfits, and more about a lack of trust in their relationship. Our final caller is debating how to handle running into her fitness coach now that their relationship has ended. Should she leave her gym, or try to muscle through? "There's no medal for being friends with someone you have feelings for."

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files: Going Deeper Edition! Before we dive into our interview, we discuss Tom Brady's breaking news retirement and if Giselle should take him back, along with recent TikTok mascara drama. Then, newlyweds Taylor and Tay Lautner join us to talk about relationships, dating, and marriage. Was it difficult for Tay to deal with Taylor's famous exes? Who is better at avoiding online hate and reading comments? And which elements of their wedding do they regret? Finally, we end our episode with a Texting Office Hours caller whose ex ghosts her for 2-3 months at a time only to resurface with an expensive gift - most recently, sending her flowers on their anniversary despite not having seen each other in two years.

E535 Bachelor Recap(ish) with Jim Jeffries

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files: Bachelor Recap Edition! We're back with comedian and friend of show, Jim Jeffries, to discuss the second episode of Zach's season. Jim starts out by telling us just how boring this season's been so far, and some ideas he has to spice it up - including getting his assistant Jack on an upcoming season of The Bachelorette and talking about how The Bachelor Australia stars three bachelors and a polyamorous contestant. We debate if early eliminations are a sign of no connection or no attraction, and if we liked Latto's Big B*tch Energy contest. Was Tahzjuan there for good television time, or was she straight up mean? Jim creates his own sad story template to win over the lead's heart, and gives Prince Harry and the royal family some notes on future diplomacy. "Can I vote Holland back on? She would be good entertainment."

E534 Ask Nick - Playing Long Distance Chicken

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 the idea of making a dating shopping list - is it setting you up for failure by judging people too quickly, or does it reduce the amount of disheartening dates on your calendar? Our first caller just got out of a four year situationship with a "man child" she works with after he made her the bottom of his priority list. To make matters worse, he then had a public melt down - in the office. Our next caller is playing a game of moving chicken with her long distance boyfriend. He lives in their hometown and she's been commuting back four hours on weekends to see him from her new city. She knows she won't be happy if she moves back, and needs to figure out how to ask him to try out city life on a trial basis.Our final caller is wondering if her boyfriend's friend is acting too much like his girlfriend, including buying him an expensive vintage jacket for Christmas. Is there something going on between them that our caller doesn't know about? "If you get back together with him, it is 100% your fault."

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 had a tumultuous relationship with her birth mother and wasn't sure if it was better to forgive her and try to establish peace, or if she should move on and prioritize less toxic relationships. Our second caller had gone to a Harry Styles concert with a platonic guy friend from her apartment building, only to have things turn romantic. Has she listened to Nick's advice and addressed the shift in dynamic head-on? Finally, we get an update from our caller that was thinking about hooking up with her boss's - despite him showing some fuckboy qualities. Whose number did she get at the family holiday party, and who booty called her while with her boss? We also have some written updates! Our caller who was debating moving out from her boyfriend despite being financially dependent, the texting office hours question of if a guy who ended things might want to pursue her in the future, and our caller who needed to break up with her ex - again - all write back in to let us know exactly what happened.
