The Viall Files

Welcome back to The Viall Files: Bachelorette Recap Edition! Today we are back with another episode, joined again today by New York Times Bestselling Author, Podcaster, and mental health advocate, Allison Raskin! On this episode we kick things off by getting the latest in Bach Nation news; talking about Nayte's recent big move to Los Angeles and becoming roommates with Rodney, a recent paparazzi photoshoot of Tyler Cameron and Paige Lorenze in NYC, plus Nick's worst paparazzi moments. We then dive into recapping the episode itself! We talk about how Gabby and Rachel are handling getting both devotion and rejection from the guys, how every season challenges your insecurities, and how to manage when half the guys are not there for you. We talk about how Mario blew his chance by exploring too much, how some of the guys may flip teams from one lead to the other, and how it's a miracle Hayden is still in the game after a rough night. We also dive into Gabby breaking the mold of surface level fairytales by getting real about not having the love of her mom, and on the other hand, how some people are finding "deep" connections over the fact that their fathers would drive them to the airport. "Getting clarity isn't the end of the world."

We are back with another episode of Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! Again we welcome you, our listeners, to give you advice on all your relationships and situationship in the crazy world of dating, friends, and family. Our first caller struggles to maintain relationships with her family because of her mother's extreme mental health issues. After overhearing a conversation, she wonders how to process and deal with a parent's frustration and how to draw the lines between being accepting of a situation and also having boundaries and respect for herself. Our next caller wonders how to manage a Type-A guy she's dating that can only get dates with him when he pencils her into his busy schedule. Now with questions about a mysterious exclusive rock climbing club he's in, and the fact that they've only dated for four months, she wonders if it's best to just move on. Our last caller is placed in the middle of family drama when her mom wants the caller to uninvite her aunt from her wedding. Now, she wonders how to set boundaries with her mother without hurting her relationship. "If it feels weird, it probably is."

Welcome back to The Viall Files, Going Deeper edition! Today we are joined by star of The One That Got Away, Jeff Perla. On this episode we welcome on Jeff to dive into his experience on the show, get the tea on who he left the show with, and how the producers dug up people from his past. We also talk about if it's worth it to explore missed connections, the contestants Jeff loved and hated the most on the show, and doing body shots for a dollar at brunch. We also talk about coming out when you're an adult, and how sometimes reopening a connection can bring a lot of emotional weight. We also dive into some pop culture topics such as Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez getting married after years of being apart, Chris Evans announcing that he's ready for love and will be putting all his energy into it, and the Tristan Thompson -Khloe Kardashian situation with people commenting on her dating choices. We then welcome on TWO Texting Office Hours Callers. Our first caller wants to formulate a text to help find a reason for her to travel to see a guy that lives far away from her. Knowing that they've hit it off in the past, she learns to be direct and learn that it's better to ask for what you want rather than chase. Our next caller wonders what to do when someone she's been hooking up with begins to ask very strange personal questions regarding her and the future. Now she wonders if she should play the game and send a semi-snarky text or move on from this hookup. "Don't chase a man during Summer."

Welcome back to The Viall Files: Bachelorette Recap Edition! Today we are back with another episode, joined by Blake Moynes of Bachelor Nation! In this episode we start things off by diving into some hot questions and check-in on Blake to see how he is dealing with his breakup of Katie, how long it took him to recover, and what he's focused on now. We ask if there was emotional cheating in his relationship and then ask him about his time on the Bachelor and his interactions with Greg on Season 17 of The Bachelorette. We ask how valid it was that Katie said she knew that Greg was not the one and we solve the mystery behind Blake's censored painting. We then respond to our episode last week and talk about our approach to responding to drama and how our response to Katie differs from the situation where Blake Horstmann leaked texts. After some Bachelor Nation Tea, we dive into recapping the latest episode of The Bachelorette. On the latest episode, we find that there were a lot of upset eliminations, with Jordan the drag racer being sent home despite going on a one on one date, and how the first impression rose doesn't necessarily mean that you're safe. With two Bachelorettes, are the dynamics different and are previous signs of going far in the season now signs you'll be sent home next? We also talk about if the guys should be focusing on one bachelorette or should they get to know a bit about both, if nicknames are a sign you're not being taken seriously, and if there will be jealousy between both of the Bachelorettes.

We are back with another episode of Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! We welcome on our callers to give them advice about their relationships and situationships! Our first caller deals with dating after moving to a new state, finding it hard to connect and progress the dates she's been going on. After finding a guy she has genuine interest in, she wonders if she should put herself out there and shoot her shot, while also learning to take things slow as she recently moved and has a lot of settling in to do. Our next caller struggles when a guy she can't get over really might not be as great as she makes him out to be. Now she must learn to hold more respect for herself as the good traits this guy holds are traits she could find with anyone. Our last caller deals with conflict when her current boyfriend wants to have a massive wedding, while she is more than happy to go to the courthouse. With this conflict in mind, we ask our caller if the reasons for her preferences might be from a deeper cause.

Welcome back to The Viall Files, Going Deeper edition! Today we are joined again by Natalie Joy as Nick and Natalie call in from London! On this episode we test out our British accents and give a major update to the Lake House Situation where Nick talks about what he thinks will happen next. We also dive into some pop culture topics such as navigating hot girl summer with non-traditional relationships, Florence Pugh's Free the Nipple dress, and how the reactions to this dress say a lot about society. We then welcome on our Texting Office Hours caller who has trouble navigating a situation where a guy she's been dating has been mysterious and unresponsive. Is his job on a golf course really that time consuming? Or is there something deeper going on? We also react to an email from a fan asking for advice when she thinks that a guy broke up with her over her loud chewing. "It's a different kind of sting."

Welcome back to The Viall Files: Bachelorette Recap Edition! Today we are back as the Bachelorette season begins tonight! Nick and Natalie call in from their hotel in London because giving you the latest on Bachelor Nation drama and reacting to the premiere episode of The Bachelorette exists above all else. We bring on our guest, coming to you from the studio, YouTuber and actress, Lisa Schwartz. We kick things off discussing Katie going live and saying, "What tea do you want spilled?" Natalie reacts to getting sent a clip from a fan of Katie expressing that she blocked Nick on her phone. We talk about the last text Nick sent Katie, react to how Katie uses social media, and express how we've done nothing but try to give her a platform to help. We then get to the premiere episode of the Bachelorette with last season favorites, Gabby & Rachel. We talk about the validity of their claims of being best friends, how they'll navigate 32 men, and where the biggest sources of drama will come from. We talk about how the new format of the show feels super refreshing, how the girls should navigate calling dibs, how a drag racer is stealing hearts, and how the twins are already packing their bags to go back home together. We also talk about the worst first impressions, how the First Impression Roses seem different this season, if there will really be enough time to get to know the guys, and our predictions for the final four.

We are back with another episode of Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! Welcome listeners, and join us as we take your questions about the dating world and relationships. Our first caller feels like she has commitment issues until she starts having feelings for a guy she had a week long romance with. She asks if her insecurities are normal and how she should handle dating situations like this in the future. Our next caller has been happily with her boyfriend for eight years, but starts raising questions when she begins to realize that he may be a spoiled man child. With continual reminders that he does the bare minimum, our caller wonders if she should move away closer to her mom and reconnect with her. The last caller questions if she should be honest with her finance about how she feels staying at his grandparents' truly gross and disgusting house. She loves him and respects that they are his family but she just can't take how awful it is. Now she wonders how to save herself from disgust without breaking his heart. "You had a week love affair."

Welcome back to The Viall Files, Going Deeper edition! Today we are switching up our typical Going Deeper format to welcome some Mediation Callers! We bring on friends and couples to help them hash out their disagreements and see what we can do to help them find some common ground. Our first callers are looking for advice on how to deal with the boyfriend going out and drinking while the girlfriend stays home and worries. He finds going out to be the perfect outlet and doesn't mean to worry his partner, but he finds himself struggling to stay disciplined with communication and promises. Our next callers wrote in about one of them wanting a dog and the other not yet being sure. As they just moved in together, literally 24 hours ago, they wonder if their lives are too busy to get a dog. And with them potentially moving to another state in the future, are there too many roadblocks to commit to a pup? Should they just get a dog and figure it out or wait a beat and make sure they are truly ready? Our last callers were best friends but had a falling out a few years ago. They get back together in the same room for the first time to try to figure out how to mend this relationship right on The Viall Files. They ask how to best get past their issues and move on from the things that occurred and put strain on the friendship. Can they restore their relationship back to what it was before? Or because of the falling out, can they never be as close again. "It's okay to have a different kind of friendship."

Welcome back to The Viall Files: Bachelor Gossip Edition! Today on our freestyle episode, we are joined again by Eilise Guilfoyle to cover the rest of juicy Bachelorette Men Bios in anticipation of the next season of The Bachelorette starting next week! Diving into the bios, we talk about how the language the men use shows a lot about their expectations, we debate if the men are the ones writing the bios themselves or just answering questions, and the weirdest fun facts from the guys. We also take a look at the troublesome party-loving twins coming on this season, who already has the description of villain written all over them, and how a guy asking for a low maintenance girl can be the biggest red flag of them all. Be sure to tune in next week on July 11th, where we go back to our usual recaps as we dive into the next exciting season of The Bachelorette with Gabby and Rachel!
