On today's episode of Ask Nick we begin by speaking with someone who says she is "highly emotional" and working on it in therapy, but doesn't think that her boyfriend should poke at her insecurities when they get into a fight. Second, we have a woman who's friendship with a guy has grown into something more, but he is moving to a different country and after a month of starting to date each other he wants to have a long distance commitment but she is unsure if it is the right decision for them. Next, a boyfriend makes plans that don't include his girlfriend over a holiday weekend which included her birthday, so in turn she uninvited him to her birthday, and now she is wondering if she was being too spiteful. Finally, we chat with a woman who spent time with someone in her friend group on a vacation and she thinks there may be something there but she has yet to hear from him and is unsure if she should make the first move. "He wants something to be certain of, knowing he is going into a world of uncertainty."

On today's episode of Ask Nick we start with a caller that is very attracted to someone who is working around her home. He is married and she knows she should not get involved but the romance novel drama of it all has her enjoying the attention and wanting more. Second, we speak with a woman who is trying to figure out the difference between red flags and flaws. Our third caller is trying to figure out what happened after she received a grand gesture from the person she is dating and then he pulled away and slowed down the communication. Lastly, we speak with someone who is trying to figuring out how to pursue a friend, who should make the first move, and if it is going to make waves within their friend group.

On todays episode of The Viall Files we are joined by the amazingly dynamic duo that is Billy Boyd and Dominic Monaghan. Most you will know them from The Lord Of The Rings but they are spending some time peeling back the layers of friendship in their new podcast The Friendship Onion. Nick speaks with the guys a little bit about their iconic work but really gets into the hard hitting topics like Billy's knees being weak cause his butt is weak, naming cars, dating, marriage, even venomous insects. These friends can take a topic from zero to 60 in the most randomly enjoyable way so be ready to be entertained this episode.

Today we recap the Bachelorette with Nick's one and only, Natalie Joy. Recording from Nick's childhood home in Wisconsin, they cover all of Natalie's hot takes on the season so far, Natalie's thoughts on Bach Nation from a newcomer's perspective, and this week's fairly drama-free episode. Together they dive into Blake's character arc thus far, why Andrew is perfect, Hunter (and his sinuses) emerging as a potential villain, and Greg's resting sad face. Nick also gets some insider details from Wells on Bach Ball, and they discuss why they appreciated Blakes response to Katie's sex-positive backstory. Oh, and did we mention we love Andrew? You won't want to miss this recap with these two. "This was a Hunter-percent a drama rose."

On today's episode of Ask Nick we first speak with a woman who is struggling with her husband's new jealousy when it comes to her co-workers of the opposite sex. Our second caller had a baby and her husband who originally wanted to have more than one child has since decided he would not like to have any more children. She still wants a bigger family and now doesn't know how to handle this without either of them feeling some resentment. Third, we chat with someone who finds someone she likes on apps, the dating is great, and then as soon as it is time to define the relationship, they flake. Finally, a woman is concerned about her sister-in-law getting married to the wrong person and doesn't know how to help open her eyes since he is basically the only guy she has ever known. "Stop calling it serial dating, it's just called dating."

Today on The Viall Files we are joined by The Bachelorette herself, Katie Thurston. Katie shares with us what we didn't see when it came to Tre & Thomas and why she used the word "unkind" upon his exit. We find out more about Blake sliding into her DM's before coming on the show and who she thought the person coming in could be. Then Nick takes some time to get to know Katie a little bit more away from the show and we learn more about what makes this strong woman, strong. "The biggest thing I have learned is not changing myself to fit their needs."
