The Viall Files

Welcome back to The Viall Files: Bachelor Gossip Edition. Today we are joined by Sports Illustrated Model and Bachelor Fan, Ella Halikas.

We first get into talking about the slap heard around the world, Will Smith's and Chris Rock's fight on National T.V. during The Oscars. We then bring on Serene to get the update on how she is doing, what she has been up to since the show, if her thoughts on the season have changed since seeing everything play out week to week, and if we'll see her in Paradise. We then dive into the new contestants appearing on the next season of The Bachelorette, talking about who we're most excited about, and who we think Gabby and Rachel will place into their Top 4s.

We are back with another episode of Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! We want to say congratulations and thank you for listening, because we are hitting Episode 400 with this release! On this episode we are joined by our first caller who is unsure what to do when her guy friend shares messages from his past fling that seems concerning and troublesome. The twist is that our caller and her guy friend have been romantic before and currently have feelings, but she feels hesitant after seeing these messages. She wonders how to navigate transitioning from friendship to relationship and how to deal with these red flags. Our next caller talks about a dream job turned nightmare after getting a job straight out of college from her friend's aunt. Our caller has a great relationship with the person who hired her but when her friend's aunt becomes her boss, everything changes with her strict and rigid expectations. Our last caller struggles to navigate a situation where the person she's dating has a condition that will limit his life expectancy. She struggles to define the relationship when she realizes that because of his condition, he will always make himself a priority over her. Now she must decide if she should pursue this relationship knowing it'll differ from something more traditional, or if she should give him space and move on.

Today we are joined by the incredibly talented and hilarious Tik-Tok star, Chris Olsen. On this episode of Going Deeper, Chris opens up about his very public break-up as well as his time in recovery, what that was like for him and his family, and how his life has changed. After that, we break down his thoughts on Love is Blind Season 2, the reunion, and his thoughts on Deepti and Shake. We also talk about how Shake finally got his "perfect" girl, when he reveals his new blonde girlfriend that he can put on his shoulders. We also discuss the ever-evolving Kanye and Pete Davidson drama, after news breaks out about Pete's new tattoo. We dive into what the attraction is, if this relationship seems too flashy to be true, and how public relationships can only survive media coverage and never benefit from it. We then go to a mediation where a couple is having issues with where to live after his residency: She wants the California Beach life and he wants the mountains. But, after the girlfriend talks about their deal where they would live in California for 4 years and he would get to decide where they move for forever, we wonder if she really had a scheme in the background to never let him leave California. How can they come to a decision together that benefits both of their needs, without anyone holding resentment afterwards? "There's no winning in disagreements, I have found."

Welcome back to The Viall Files: Bachelor Gossip Edition. Today we are joined by journalist, host, model, and fan favorite, Cathy Kelly! We're here to cover the fallout of the Bachelor finale, reflecting on how much Clayton has grown since the show ended, why Susie is dating him, and how the show will change for the next season with two bachelorettes. On this episode, we spill the tea on the insider scoop of what rose ceremonies will look like next season, getting to the bottom of if Clayton likes to be choked after a shocking social media post, how fan favorites can be just saying the right things instead of being good people, and if Bachelor In Paradise will happen after the next Bachelorette season.

We are back with another episode of Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! On this episode we answer your burning questions to help you navigate the crazy world of dating. Our first caller doesn't know what to do after her mom shows up to a bar drunk and hooks up with the caller's friends. Feeling betrayed by both her mom and her friends, our caller feels that her trust in all of them has become completely shattered. Now, she wonders if she should try to forgive or if these actions are too egregious to get over. Our next caller is in a very happy relationship with her boyfriend while they are both in the military. But quickly, her reality is warped when she learns that her boyfriend has a wife and four kids back home. After finding out more while he is deployed, our caller confronts her boyfriend about everything. Now, she wonders where to go from here and if she can preserve any aspect of the relationship. Our last caller is having issues after having a major falling out with her younger brother when she asks him to be in her wedding. Our caller feels that her brother's girlfriend is influencing him, when on the flip of a switch the brother says that being close to your family and having a good relationship with them is weird and unusual. Now our caller asks how to potentially navitate helping her brother who may be in an emotionally abusive relationship and how she can repair relationships that are being ripped apart. "It's hard to stay contained under a pressure cooker situation."

Today we are joined by Susie Evans directly from tonight's After the Final Rose from HELL! On this episode of Going Deeper, we ask Susie all the hard questions and dive way deeper into this insane season's drama. We get Susie to give us a timeline of what happened after that night in Iceland, what the cameras didn't capture, and what changed after she left. We also get her thoughts on Gabby & Rachel's heartbreak and seeing the fallout of Clayton saying he "loved her the most." We also ask about how Clayton has grown since the season, how Susie is happy to end this relationship at any time if it isn't working for her, and how her sliding into his DMs blossomed into a relationship. We then go to a mediation where a couple is looking to heal from cheating. They wonder how they can move on and not instigate each other with his past discretions. We break down what each person's expectations should be, boundaries they need to set and how to manage the risk of trusting again. We end the show asking Susie where she is in her relationship with Clayton as she shares that she really wants them to do a pulse check and continue to talk realistically about their future and not just get engaged. "He realizes that this is bigger than just our love story" Please make sure to subscribe so you don't miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to asknick@kastmedia.com to be a part of our Monday episodes.

Today we are joined by Vulture Writer, Emmy Award Winner, and Bach Recap Fan Favorite, Ali Barthwell, to break down the ending of this scandalous and chaotic season of The Bachelor. On this episode of Bachelor Recap we talk about the explosive Bachelor Finale! We dive into how Clayton's apologies show his immaturity, Gabby standing up for herself, and how Rachel was led to believe she was the one. We also talk about what Susie must have seen in Clayton to choose to take him back, how she'll have to make a PR campaign to fight off any questions she gets, and where Clayton needs to grow. We also talk about the next season of The Bachelorette and how the show will work with two women as leads and how they work together to find love in the next chapter.

Today we are joined by both Christina Harris and Natalie as we dive into talking about the first night of the finale to Clayton's insane season. After some Hot Goss about Clayton's different press appearances leading up to the finale, we dive into part one of the episode itself. On this episode we focus on the Rose Ceremony "From Hell" where people are crying, people are storming out, and people are having their hearts broken in front of everyone else. We talk about the problematic nature of Clayton loving Susie the most, how Clayton's apology and tell-all still holds a lot back, and how honestly would have prevented a lot of this drama. We also talk about how being The Bachelor means being a leader instead of having things your way and how Clayton appears like he has a lot of dating maturity to build. "He expected everyone to adapt instead of him having to empathize."

We are back with another episode of Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! On this episode, our first caller is enjoying life as a digital nomad traveling from place to place and going on dating apps. After her and a date quarantined together they left with feelings but also without applying a label on the situationship. Now, wanting to maintain her casual digital nomad lifestyle but also wanting to pursue things with this guy further, our caller struggles on how to approach and define what she wants. Our next caller's sister is throwing a birthday party for herself and the costs are just too high for her and her husband. When our caller expressed concerns about rising prices for the event, her sister turned into a Birthday-Zilla saying that finances shouldn't be an excuse. Now our caller wonders how to lay things out and communicate without creating problems with her sister. Our last caller is in a work related situation with a man she just isn't interested in. Her coworker gets incredibly jealous when our caller mentions going on dates. Now, she wonders how to put him in line while also being able to keep her work about doing work and not participating in drama.

Today we are joined by Twilight's Ashley Greene and host of The Twilight Effect podcast out March 15th. On this episode of Going Deeper we talk about Ashley's former co-star, Robert Pattinson who stars as Bruce Wayne in the new movie, The Batman. We talk if his performance stacks up and if Rob plays the moody goth Bruce Wayne we really needed all along. Next we talk about the phenomenon that is sweeping the nation, Euphoria. We discuss the controversy of sexualising teenagers and wonder how the show will develop in the next season with so many cliffhangers and loose ends. From there, we talk sex scenes in movies and how it's a mistake to watch "R" rated movies with your grandma and on a plane. We then talk about marriage and how destination weddings can be the move to keep things more intimate. Next, we invite Love is Blind Season Two cast members, Nick and Danielle, on for a mediation where they talk about their struggles when their cleanliness habits and routines conflict.
