The Viall Files

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! We want to wish you a very Happy New Year and say thank you for watching! On this show, we bring on our callers to give advice about the world of dating. Before getting to our callers, we dive into talking about being pickier on dating apps and testing the waters with a Facetime date. We then bring on our first caller, who after reconnecting with a past girlfriend, finds out that she's already dating someone. Even after seeing red flags everywhere, knowing that she's being suspicious, he still continues talking to her, wondering at this point if he should cut things off or not ask too many questions. Our next caller is wondering whether she should have her mom, who she is closest to, walk her down the aisle instead of her dad. Knowing that her dad can take things personally, she worries that she may be ending a relationship by going with her mom. Our last caller is wondering what to do after she finds old friends coming out of the woodwork after getting engaged. Now, our caller wonders how to deal with a friendship that's changed and, while important, is no longer a priority. "Spoiler alert: I think about you a lot."

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. So let's end the year by getting some last updates from our callers! We bring on our first caller from who originally called in for advice after breaking up with her boyfriend for his refusal to introduce our caller to his family. Getting back together with some red flags still present, our caller wonders how to navigate getting back together with your ex. We then get an update from our caller who wanted to shoot her shot with someone she went on a date with in the past, after this guy is leaving breadcrumbs of interest. We then get an update from our caller who appeared on our episode with Victoria and Greg. Originally calling in because her boyfriend was having trust issues and going through her phone, we get an update if our caller took Nick's advice to break up with her boyfriend tonight. We also read some updates from our callers! We get an update from our caller who received 89 text messages from her ex, our caller who canceled on due to bad weather, and our caller who doesn't want her friend coming in to bring her boyfriend.

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! We're here again to bring on our callers and help them navigate the world of relationships and situationships. We kick things off by hearing about Ali's unconventional travel hacks, an update from improv class, and Amanda revealing the break-up song of the week! After debating if it's worse to be cheated on or fallen out of love with, we bring on our callers. Our first caller is debating if she should break off her engagement with her fiancé, despite having a child with him. With this man not fulfilling her needs as both a partner and a father to her child, she wonders if it's worth it to move on. Our next caller has been single for three years and recently feeling lonely, is reflecting on a breakup from years ago. With her ex appearing in her dreams, she wonders how to detach from these feelings and hope for a brighter future. Our last caller is wondering how to handle a situation where her best friend seems to disappear when her friend is dating someone. With her finding a hard time with their dynamic changing, our caller wonders how to salvage and transform friendship into something new. "You're a better friend when you don't have a boyfriend."

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files, Going Deeper Edition! Today we are joined by actress Chloe Bale as we recap the final three episodes of the Harry and Meghan Netflix series, finishing Volume Two! After catching up with Chloe about everything she has had going on in her life, we have Michelle Tauber, the senior editor overseeing Royals coverage at People, join the episode via Zoom. We dive into talking about how the tone felt different in this volume, Henry's trauma from the loss of Princess Diana, how the media scene compares to the paparazzi in LA, the theatrical language the royals use, King Charles' thoughts on the situation, and the never complain and never explain mentality embedded in the royal family. We also get into having more empathy after this series, trying to fix family issues in the public eye, growing up being the "spare" of the family, conflicts in emotional intelligence, Meghan and Harry's expectations of releasing a tell-all, and where we think things will go from here. We then bring on our Texting Office Hours caller, who is seeking help in getting dumped by her brother's best friend. After feeling a hard time trusting this man in her interactions with him after the breakup, our caller wonders the best way to move on. "Never complain, never explain!"

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! We're here again to answer your questions and to take your calls as we navigate the world of situationships. Our first caller is thinking about dating her boss' brother after meeting him at a work party. With an age-gap, him displaying f-boy tendencies, and some questionable texts, she wonders if he's worth the pursuit. Our next caller recently got out of a two year relationship and wants to memorialize her ex by possibly getting a tattoo of his initials so that she never forgets how she felt while in the relationship. Our last caller is unhappy being stuck living with her boyfriend at her father's house after feeling like a temporary situation may be permanent. Feeling like it's an issue with his worth ethic, she wonders how long she should support her boyfriend's ambitions to become a Twitch streamer, while her father actively disapproves of this man's career choice. "You're already branded by your first love."

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files, Going Deeper Edition! Today we are joined by author, playwright, and entertainment executive, Tara Schuster! We start things off by talking about gratitude, dealing with your family over the holidays, AI-generated art, and if robots will take over the world. We then get into the recap itself, diving into the first volume of episodes, covering episodes one through three of Harry and Meghan! We get into the recap, talking about getting really invested because of this documentary and understanding why England cares so much about the crown. We talk about Harry being sensitive because of his mother, Harry addressing his past mistakes in a genuine way, discerning if some of Meghan's statements are genuine or not, and analyzing Harry and Meghan's first few dates. We get into wanting more dirt, questioning if you should profit off the brand of the Royal Family, and how this documentary compares to the Oprah interview. We then wonder why they're making a tell all, the media's focus on Meghan's family, and getting into the situation with Meghan's father. We also talk about being high character in a low character environment, trying to do good with the privilege you have, and working to heal your wounds. We then bring on our Texting Office Hours caller who is struggling after getting ghosted by a friend of ten years over a small miscommunication. After recognizing this is a repeating pattern, she wonders the best way to establish a new system of communication in order to form a relationship that isn't about trying to win. We then close by talking about Tara's upcoming book! "We're above this, but here's the tea."

Welcome back to The Viall Files: Freestyle Edition! Today we are joined by Bachelor Nation's Susie Evans! First, we start things off with some Bachelor Tea, diving into Nick and Johnny hanging out at the People's Choice Awards, Gabby not outright shutting down her flirtatiousness with Vinny Guadagnino, why Nick thinks Peter and Kelley keeping their relationship more private is the right move, filming your wedding, and Tia Booth giving birth to her baby boy. We also check-in with Susie, getting updates on how she's been since her breakup with Clayton. We ask if she's been getting any DMs, her becoming in tune with relationship advice, being there for an ex after a breakup, clearly communicating your expectations, and breaking down Susie's past boyfriends and how it's influenced her current approach to dating. We also talk about Clayton's concern that the producers would make Susie the Bachelorette, learning who to trust at the end of the show, what she's looking for in a future partner, finding balance and aligning ambitions within relationships, how to find the person who can be your cheerleader in the right kind of way, and money versus passion. We also talk about Katie Holmes' throwback denim and dress outfit, and also talk about people using AI to create profile pictures. We then bring on our Texting Office Hours caller who wonders how to navigate communicating expectations after having to get an emergency contraceptive from a hook-up. Feeling like she was the only one taking it seriously, our caller wonders how to communicate how she's feeling to her situationship. "You fan-zoned yourself."

Welcome back to another juicy and exciting episode of The Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! We're here once again, to bring on our callers and help them navigate the crazy world of dating. We start things off before our callers by talking about a romantic Hanukkah Party, if ranch is good, and how Amanda practiced woodworking as a child. First, we speak with someone who was blindsided into meeting her dad's mistress at Thanksgiving and is wondering how to break a toxic cycle she has with her dad. Then, we speak with our caller whose sister is dating our caller's old hookup from a few years ago. Now that he's coming to family functions and causing tension between our caller and her current boyfriend, our caller wonders what to do. The more the story unfolds, the more our caller realizes it's simply a matter of trust and jealousy and that she really needs to put her foot down. Finally, we speak with a caller who is in a nonsexual situationship with her roommate's brother. They've gone on a date, and really like each other, but he seems to have pulled back in their communication after having spoken with his sister. She's wondering if how she is communicating with him is needy behavior and whether or not she's already gotten the answer she thinks she's looking for. "It's your job to trust me."

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files, Going Deeper Edition! Today we are joined by Content Creator, Media Personality, and Entrepreneur, Serena Kerrigan! In this episode, we are diving deep and talking about how being on The Viall Files was on Serena's bucket list, bringing a Regina George mentality to self-love, embracing that life is short, and getting called vicious on dates. We also talk about the biggest struggles in the modern dating landscape, the importance of communication, and meeting a "turning point" man. We then play Serena's card game, "Let's F*cking Date", and get into some deep questions. We also get into some pop culture topics, talking about Keke Palmer's pregnancy announcement and the Britney Spears musical. We then let on our Texting Office Hours caller who wonders if she should pursue an old situationship after running into him last week. With her trying to see if he's interested, and him using a sunburn as an excuse to flake, she wonders if it's even worth it. After our caller we see what's new with Serena with her brand and upcoming show. "I think everything comes down to communication."
