The Viall Files

Welcome back to The Viall Files: Bachelor Gossip Edition! Today we are joined by Podcaster and Reality Television Star, Kail Lowry. On this episode, we dive into our reactions to Mike Tyson's brutal interaction with a taunting "fan" and discuss why celebrities decide to fly commercial air. We then breakdown the Amber and Johnny situation as everything continues to come to light as the trial has gone on. We dive into Amber allegedly keeping Johnny away from his medicine for withdrawals, admitting to physical violence on tape, and how it can be hard to leave these situations. We then ask Kail about her recent defamation lawsuit and get her insight into why the case is happening in Virginia, how each state treats these types of cases completely differently, and how the burden of proof can be extremely difficult to overcome. We then catch up on all things Selling Sunset and question if they actually sell houses once the cameras stop filming. "Can you respond to crazy with a little crazy of your own?"

We are back with another episode of Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! In this episode, we welcome our callers to answer their burning questions and to give insights into helping their relationships. Our first caller wonders if he is the fuckboy after getting different vibes from the women he's going on dates with. He worries about the expectations he's setting when with one girl it feels like a FWB situation while with someone else, it feels like dating. Now, he wonders if he knows what he wants, if he's moving too fast, and how to avoid potential disconnects. Our next caller talks about getting close to a guy friend over the pandemic, to the point where they became inseparable. After her friend spoke about progressing the relationship into something more, our caller turned him down, resulting in him distancing himself and shutting down the friendship. Now our caller wonders how to get proper closure. Our last caller struggles emotionally after she feels that her friends were not supportive enough while she was dealing with and surviving cancer. Now, she wonders if she's losing friends because of the natural process of getting older, or if her friends are completely insensitive to her situation and what she's gone through. "There is always a time in your life where it's best to be selfish."

Welcome back to The Viall Files, Going Deeper edition! Today we are joined by The Ultimatum's Colby & Madlyn! We dive into their new marriage and their soon to be baby. We ask them about why they joined the show, if they set any boundaries before splitting up, if they learned anything watching it back, and how mad Madlyn actually was when Colby said he saw other women for "her." We ask them about the jealousy, lingering regrets, proposing in front of a camera crew, and being tailgate drunk. We rehash April's breakup and talk about her finding happiness and independence after splitting up from Jake. After the interview, we transition into helping out a mediation couple who are lost in their finances when their mother-in-law meddles in their affairs. We talk about the flaws in having your mother as a landlord, and setting expectations not only for your family but also for the IRS.

We are back with another episode of Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! In this episode we dive into our first caller's situation where she, for no particular reason, is still a virgin. Now wanting to lose it with her boyfriend, she worries when her boyfriend struggles to perform because of the built up pressure. Does the first time still have to be special? And how can they make the first time memorable but also fun? Our next caller struggles when her guy gets a promotion at work. With his new role and responsibilities, he's become consumed by stress, having it seep into every aspect of their lives. Now she feels confused when it seems that everything was perfect until he got stressed. Our last caller is living with Herpes and feels comfortable explaining her situation to dates and is equipped with the proper talking points. However, our caller feels that when her dates understand, that a power dynamic is created. How can our caller balance being selective while having to explain living with Herpes to her dates?

We also talk about changing your life to pursue a new path, how judgmental people usually have the biggest insecurities, the source of Faye's one-liners, being scouted through Instagram, and Chloe's best interactions when filming Euphoria.

We are back with another episode of Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! In this episode we dive into our first caller's situation where a church guy she met comes on super strong, then pulls away. From his weird pickup lines asking if she wanted cat food, to his drug use, to him being a 32 year old virgin, his aura of mystery only likely serves to hurt. Our next caller can't stop hooking up with and seeing a guy she knows is toxic for her. From changing his contact name on her phone to an STD, she can't seem to stop herself from seeing a guy she knows isn't good for her. She asks for help with putting her foot down and moving on. Our last caller struggles with what to do after her military boyfriend got orders to move to another state, meaning she would have to pack up her life where she lives now to continue to live with him. Now, she wonders what to do considering she would have to put a stop on her career, and if an unconventional solution like having him pay her a "Girlfriend Tax" may get her what she needs to make the jump and move. "I got hooked on the potential of where it could go."

Welcome back to The Viall Files, Going Deeper edition! Today we are joined by Cindy Eckert, the billionaire behind the creation of "female Viagra" known as Addyi. On this episode we talk about why a drug like this has never been made for women, how the options given to women differ from men for a similar problem, and how Cindy was able to sell her drug to a company and win it back again down the line. We also talk about how Cindy got death threats for releasing Addyi, how this drug differs from Viagra, and how Cindy had to fight against the FDA. We also dive into pop culture, talking about the Will Smith situation, him leaving the academy, and how defending your partner can expose toxic traits. We then shift to feature an extra call from our Ask Nick episode with Justin Long where our caller deals with a flirty coworker who is stringing her along. Now she struggles to know if he actually cares for her or if she is the victim of his fuckboy tactics. "People misinterpret being sex positive as not being able to have opinions about sex at all."

The low sexual desire is troubling to them and is not due to a medical or mental health problem, problems in the relationship or medicine or other drug use. ADDYI is not for use in men or to enhance sexual performance. Your risk of severe low blood pressure and fainting is increased if you drink 1-2 standard alcoholic drinks close in time to your ADDYI dose. Wait at least 2 hours after drinking before taking ADDYI at bedtime. Your risk of severe low blood pressure and fainting is also increased if you take certain prescription, over the counter or herbal medications, or have liver problems. Low blood pressure and fainting can happen when you take ADDYI even if you don't drink alcohol or take other medicines. Do not take if you are allergic to any of the ingredients in ADDYI. Allergic reactions may include hives, itching or trouble breathing. Sleepiness, sometimes serious, can occur. Common side effects include dizziness, nausea, tiredness, difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep and dry mouth.
