E491 Going Deeper - Tino Franco Speaks

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files, Going Deeper Edition! Today we are joined by Tino Franco to hear him tell us all about his experience on the last season of The Bachelorette and the devastating situation that led to heartbreak with Rachel. We kick things off with a bit of Pop Culture Hot Goss, talking about Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber being photographed together at the Academy Museum Gala, and reacting to the concept of surprise weddings, talking about Robert Kraft's ceremony. We then welcome in Tino, to answer all of your burning questions after his AFR appearance and breakup with Rachel Recchia. Tino tells all as we check-in by asking how's his heart, what made him fall in love with Rachel, and if he believes in the phrase "once a cheater, always a cheater." We also get into how they handled the pressures of a public relationship, his thoughts on AFR, and what challenges began to arise in their love together. We then get into it by having Tino break down the incident, explain why he cheated, and talk about how he told Rachel. We talk about insecurity leading to desire, why Tino didn't come clean sooner, and how Rachel reacted after hearing the full truth. We then get into the house confrontation, if Tino knew there would be cameras, and if Tino genuinely feels regret for cheating. We then talk about Tino being remorseful, what he's done since the breakup, and how getting help with his mental health has been a huge step for him. After that, we tackle your burning questions about the ring conversation, what Tino's purpose of the journal was, if Tino heard from Aven after AFR aired, and if Tino is still in love with Rachel. "I let her down by having my insecurities run wild."

Welcome back to The Viall Files: Bachelor In Paradise Edition! In this episode, we're going back to paradise again, breaking down and recapping the two episodes of Bachelor In Paradise released this week. We're joined by Natalie Joy and Keaton Milburn to help us dive into the latest suntanned drama on this season of Bachelor in Paradise!

We then get into the episode itself, opening with Peter and Brittany going on a date that did not end well, talking about how Peter has some fighting words, and Casey fainting. We also debate if Danielle's relationship feels forced, Victoria serving as the voice of reason this season, and the shocking announcement that the women on the beach would be leaving temporarily, leading to a lot of shock and tears. We talk about Jill's breakdown, Kate breaking her promise to not step on toes, Jacob hiding that he's being a f*ckboy by acting goofy, and being naked and howling at the moon. We also talk about the guys' extreme workout routines, if giving your rose to someone fun or loyal is better, and Lace being aware that she was getting set up for heartbreak. We also talk about Tyler not getting much attention despite being Thor's body double, Tantric Yoga, the ethics of shopping dates, and not getting a kiss goodbye.

E487 Going Deeper With Kit Keenan - F*ckBoy Dating, Plus Powercouples: Tom & Gisele/Adam & Behati

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files, Going Deeper Edition! Today we are joined by model, fashion designer, entrepreneur, and Bach Nation star, Kit Keenan. On this episode, we catch up with Kit and ask her about her dating life, the importance of setting expectations with communication, and how anyone in hookup culture can be guilty of becoming a f*ckboy. We also talk about how you can start a relationship knowing that it isn't for forever, if it's better to have a roster or one person when casually dating, and how your parent's relationship can serve both as a standard and a pressure. We then get into some pop culture news, laying out the updates on the developing drama and divorce rumors between Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen, and dive into speculations of Adam Levine's relationship dynamic with his wife, Behati, after he acknowledges the DMs but denies that he was having an affair. We then bring on our two Texting Office Hours callers! Our first caller wonders if she can lock in a date with a guy her aunt scouted out for her at a wedding. Never meeting this guy in real life, she wonders if she should be bold and take a chance with this man. Our next caller matched on a dating app with her first kiss and first boyfriend from 15 years ago. Focused on what their relationship used to be, she has to learn to ask better questions to understand how this guy has changed in the past 15 years from what she used to date. "Every fuckboy wants a family one day."

E486 Bachelor In Paradise Recap w/ Bri Springs

Welcome back to The Viall Files: Bachelor In Paradise Edition! We're back with another episode, joined by Bri Springs of Bachelor Nation, to break down the latest episode of this season! We kick things off by getting into some Bach Nation Tea, breaking down the Justin and Kira drama where Justin called out Kira for not seeing her at Stagecoach, Kira's clapback that they hangout, and breaking down Teddi's post reflecting on her departure from this season, where she calls this environment cruel and one that crossed her boundaries. We then get into the episode itself, where we get into what could've made Teddi stay, Rodney and Justin's risky pickup lines, Rodney and Lace having an unexpected romance, and Aaron acting like a baby instead of taking accountability. We also talk about Genevieve and Shanae acting like a group of mean girls towards Sally, the missed opportunity to make Brandon the next Bachelor, and Brandon's authentic emotional approach to dating. We also talk about Sierra and Michael navigating what taking things slow means, how people can tell if you're interested based on how you phrase things, and the real reason why more guys aren't courting Brittany. We also talk about the guys being overly concerned about the edit they'll get, knowing when it's your turn to leave the show, and Peter having bad role models. We also talk about Jacob using humor as a mask, Ashley and Jared farting in bed, Casey doing nothing on the beach, and exploring who would go on the naked date.

E485 Ask Nick - Emotionally Unavailable Or A Jerk?

Welcome back to another juicy and exciting episode of The Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! On this show, we're here again to help you navigate through the crazy world of dating, relationships, and situationships, by taking your calls and answering your questions! We bring on our first caller who wonders if she should confess the feelings she's developed for her brother's best friend after flirting with him. Now that this guy says he no longer has a girlfriend, our caller wonders if it's best to be direct, asking him out to get an answer to the question of if he's actually interested in something more than a flirt. Our next caller joins and asks for advice about what to do after her best friend seems to have ghosted her. Struggling with what seems to be the death of a friendship, our caller wonders if she should reach out or just try to move on, finding a healthy new chapter in her life. Our last caller feels that she isn't getting the emotional support she needs from her consistent monogamous friends with benefits she's been seeing for over a year, with this guy giving very unsupportive and disengaged responses when our caller reveals that her mom is in the late stages of cancer. Feeling the desire to focus on her family and move on, she wonders if all jerks are replaceable. "He 'customer serviced' you!"

E484 Going Deeper With Jason Alabaster - Tells All, Try Guys Drama Plus Brad & Leo Dating Stories

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files, Going Deeper Edition! Today we have a very exciting episode where we welcome on Jason Alabaster from this last season of The Bachelorette! First off, we dive into some hot goss on all things pop culture, talking about Lil Nas X delaying a show because of stomach issues, the scandalous cheating situation involving Ned from The Try Guys, and Emily Ratajkowski hanging out with Brad Pitt after her recently getting cheated on by her ex. We also discuss sharing your streaming service logins and if you should kick your ex off your account if you catch them watching Game of Thrones. We then get deep with Jason, reflecting on his time on the last season of The Bachelorette! We check-in on how his heart is doing, what drove him to come on the show, and what made him initially interested in pursuing Gabby. Jason also talks about sitting by the fireplace instead of talking to people most of Night One, the pressure of potentially getting engaged to someone when you've talked for less than ten hours, and accidentally stepping on Gabby's foot. We also see where Jason is at in the healing process, his reactions to comments that he led Gabby on, and breaking up in the Fantasy Suite. We then welcome on our two Texting Office Hours callers! Our first caller feels attracted to her physical therapist and felt inspired to call into the show after hearing about our other caller that shot her shot with her chiropractor. Now she wonders about the perfect date, where she can make it romantic, but can also have an escape plan to friendzone him if things don't go well. We then bring on our next caller who left the possibility of being friends with her ex after they broke up. Now that her ex wants to reconnect, and with him sending over 100 long diary entry style text messages, our caller wonders if she bit off more than she could chew and the best way to move on from someone that has an unhealthy attachment to the hope of something more. "We basically broke up in the fantasy suite."
