The Viall Files

Today we are back with another episode of Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! On this episode, we are joined again by media presenter and TikToker, Hello Tefi, as we take your calls and give you advice on all things relationships and situationships. Our first caller deals with a young and eager dater who after a few dates, tells our caller that he loves her. We follow their conversation and realize that this date wants to love but doesn't know why or how to express these feelings properly. Our next caller talks about their breakup with their BFF after a recent visit showed ulterior motives. Now she has to decide if her friend was acting out of jealousy and if she's outgrown her long term friend. Our last caller struggles to communicate and set boundaries when their dates progress physical affection faster than they anticipated. She gets advice on how to convey to their date that their boner isn't her problem. "Do you miss your imperfect friend?"

We are back with another Bachelor related episode, diving into the world and drama of Bachelor Nation. Today, we are joined by Former Bachelor Producer, TV Host, Correspondent, and Founder of Heart Broken Anonymous, Naz Perez. While there is no new episode of The Bachelor itself we kept ourselves busy by talking about the hot goss in Bachelor Nation. Also we got Teddi on with us, so that we can interview her about whether she thought her behavior was manipulative or not. We talk about the spectrum of manipulation, how people in healthy relationships manipulate, and how sometimes it's important to get what you want. We also talk about how the show has changed with social media, the pull of why people watch each season, and the ever expanding Reality Television Cinematic Universe. We also address the Cassidy FWB situation and how her approach shows she isn't ready for love. "You're giving me a lot more credit than I deserve."

Today, on another episode of Viall Files, Ask Nick Edition, we dive into the world of situationships and answer your burning questions about relationships and the dating world. In this episode we are joined by our first caller who struggles with the idea that her boyfriend is hooked on weed, making it a higher priority than everything else in his life. Not growing up around it herself, this caller expresses concern that this may be a sign that their lifestyles are incompatible. Our next caller struggles with how to be supportive to her friend that has been stuck in a situationship for a long time. She asks for advice on how to help her friend ask for and get what she wants. Our next caller has been stuck in a situationship for almost two years and feels like she is getting crushed by the dreaded in-between. Now, she tries to learn how to not ask someone else to define the relationship, but rather, demand what she wants out of the situation. "You're making it more of a priority than I'm comfortable with."

On this episode of Viall Files, we are joined by Scheana Shay and Brock Davies from Vanderpump Rules as we discuss their new engagement, the true value of that massive ring, and what didn't make it on camera. We also dive into how some cast members may not approve of the engagement, who might be jealous, and how to romantically sign a prenup. We break down how they'll resolve parenting disagreements in the future, moments where they've crossed the line, and how sometimes getting therapy with your mother-in-law is a good thing.

We are back with another recap of The Bachelor as we dive into the world of Clayton's season. Today, we are joined by journalist, television host, model, and actress, Cathy Kelley as we break down the crazy moments and hot messes of episode two. On this recap we dive into talking about who pulled aside Hilary Duff, Nick's hot take about Teddi, and what manipulation is in a relationship. We also talk about how there are clearly love roses and drama roses, how a FWB situation back home may ruin a contestant's chance, the intentions of certain contestants, and how someone should go on The Bachelor purely for spite. We also discuss the ADHD situation and how disclosing information about someone else can be harmful. "I think there are plenty of hot messes in this cast."

Today on Ask Nick, we start with a caller whose best friend's boyfriend has asked her to borrow money for her friend's engagement ring. She is confused as to why he wants to spend outside of his means, and is wondering whether she should tell her friend who she knows is pushing for the engagement. But she soon realizes that maybe what she should really be questioning is whether to go into business with a friend who is rushing some very big life decisions. We then speak with someone who was ghosted by her "best friend" after her father passed away. Now they're both attending at a mutual friend's wedding and our caller is dreading the confrontation. Should she ignore the situation, or try to have a heart-to-heart before the event? "Money problems turn into other problems."

Today we are joined by actress and Too Hot To Handle contestant, Francesca Farago. In this interview we dive into the downsides about sharing relationships on social media, how to ignore the rumor mill, and how being on reality TV and wanting privacy in your personal life are two different things. We also talk about finding your love language, how society is judgmental of someone with a lot of exes, and how you can be your own person even in a relationship. We also ask about how dating greatly differs when going out with men versus with women, and how jealously from your partner can be an issue when you're bisexual. "A lot of people see exes as a failure."

Today we look forward to welcoming you back to the world of the Bachelor, kicking it off with another recap for the first episode of Clayton's season. Our guest today is YouTuber and actress, Lisa Schwartz. First, we do a report card and ask how Clayton and Jesse are doing in their roles and how the show is doing in terms of letting us learn more about Clayton, besides just his love for puppies. We dive into the Sally situation, and judge how Clayton handles a hurt contestant that is not ready for the show and to love again. We select our picks for best intros, who we think will make it to the end, and which contestants are already being edited to look like villains. We talk about how we think Teddi, a virgin, will likely lose her virginity in the Fantasy Suite, how giving away a 100 year old photo to the Bachelor may be a bad idea, and how being a good person isn't enough to be a good Bachelor. We can already tell this season is going to be fun but messy, so come join us in recapping the premiere!

Today we are back with your questions on another edition of Ask Nick. We begin with a caller who's love life has turned into a real life Hallmark movie. Should she date the buttoned up finance guy and charity donor who lives in her city? Or should she head back to her roots to pursue romance with an old hometown flame, who is comfortable and familiar, but has a bit of a bad boy image? Next, we are joined by a caller who is navigating a potential relationship with someone with an STI. She really likes him (and is normally very picky so that really means something) but she has never dated someone with an STI so she doesn't know exactly how to manage the risk. Lastly, we speak with someone who has recently found out that her ex's friends have been mocking her and her social media and potentially disrupting her future dating life. We then learn she works with some of these friends, so she's wondering how to go about blocking them, and how she can move on from feeling "crazy" after the break-up. "Your ex has a groupchat with his friends where they share your TikToks and your snapchats and talk about them."
