Nick Viall
My name is Nick Viall and I host The Viall Files, a podcast that one anonymous reviewer called “surprisingly insightful and substantive.”
The Viall Files explores all things dating and love - from post-breakup healing to salacious texts - in our three (and sometimes four) weekly episodes.
Ask Nick - Every Monday, listeners navigating a challenging yet relatable interpersonal circumstance--from a 2 year situationship to a blowout fight with their mom to a friendship feud to reigniting intimacy after 10 years of marriage--call in for Nick's signature blunt yet compassionate advice. It's ripe with the type of hard truths your friends are too afraid to say, but you're better off for hearing.
Bachelor Recap - We break down this week's episode of the Bachelor, Bachelorette, or Bachelor in Paradise on Tuesdays. This color commentary is full of hot takes, debates, jokes, and the insider knowledge only a former Bachelor can provide. Nick, Ali and Amanda are joined by special celebrity guests--you'd be surprised how many of your favorite actors and comedians are closet bachelor fans.
Freestyle - On Tuesday during the Bachelor "off-season," we dive into the hot-button, zeitgeist topics--the latest celebrity drama, trending reality tv shows, new love song/music video that everyone's obsessed with, and occasionally a months-long highly publicized defamation trial between divorced A-list actors. Our lively discussions include takeaways we can all relate to.
We also have "Texting Office Hours," a segment where we help a caller craft, edit, and press the send button on a nerve-wracking message.
Going Deeper - Every Thursday, a special guest joins the show for a tell-all interview and to discuss their latest project, their philosophies on love and relationships, plus the most relevant pop culture topics. These episodes conclude with our beloved "Texting Office Hours " segment where Nick, the guest, and our co-hosts team up to give advice to a listener on a message they need help writing.
The Update Show - The last Friday of the month, by popular demand (and we mean POPULAR) cliffhangers are resolved and burning questions are answered with updates from our most engaging callers. These much-anticipated follow-ups reveal if the caller took Nick's advice and how everything transpired, providing much-needed resolution to the callers' stories that stole our hearts and attention.
E201 Ask Nick - Nipple Sucking
On this weeks episode of Ask Nick, We first speak with a couple that is trying to work through some issues of her feeling like he is not making her a priority over his career as a comedian, which always has him traveling and him trying to explain the time he does spend with her is not his “leftover time”. Next a woman having a virtual relationship with someone and the conversation has turned sexual over text only, and she is confused when he says he is “down for anything” but he seems to shame her for her suggestions. Mental health issues are keeping our next caller from getting into relationships fearing the conversation around her biggest insecurity will keep someone from wanting to be with her and make her hard to love, and finally someone is trying to figure out if she should shoot her shot with the guy she is texting with or wait for him to make the move to meet in person. If your stuck with your family and need a break from the holiday festivities don’t worry, we got you covered this week! “Turkey, It’s like if Thanksgiving was about candy and you had to eat candy corn.” Please make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to [email protected] to be a part of our Monday episodes.

Today on the Viall Files we start the week with another episode of Ask Nick. First we speak with a woman who found out her boyfriend slept with his ex, from his ex. Now she is struggling as he tries to flip the blame on her for catching him in a lie.

Finally we speak with a person who is stuck in a lease with a guy she was hooking up with and dated and she wants to date him again but, he is not into it because she hurt him in the past. There is a a lot to unpack here but should she be packing up to move out instead. “Be a cool chick to someone who deserves it.” Please make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to [email protected] to be a part of our Monday episodes.

E181 Ask Nick - Moving Shady with JVCKJ aka Jack J
On today's episode of Ask Nick we are joined by recording artist Jack J. First, Nick speaks with Jack as we go through what his own relationships have taught him about himself and how he is able to reflect on what he's learned to ensure he finds the right relationship at the right time. Jack’s new single “You Lie” is a look at a past toxic relationship he experienced and we are so glad to welcome him as he uses that experience to help Nick out and share some different perspectives with today's callers. Our first caller is a woman who wants to know how to reassure her boyfriend of their relationship as he is about to leave to train in the police academy. Next, we speak to a woman who’s recent breast reduction surgery has her feeling a bit insecure about men seeing her scars or thinking she is catfishing them on an app that shows her older photos. And finally, a boyfriend's form of communication is screaming- not talking- and Nick and Jack help her realize that he might not be as great as she says he is. “It’s about the individual. It’s not about the past. ” You guys nominated us and now it is time to vote!

E177 Ask Nick - What, Does He Have A Magic Dick Or Something?
On today's episode of Ask Nick we dive right in with a caller who wants to know: when should you intervene in a friend's toxic relationship and how involved should you get? We then speak to someone who’s boyfriend continually emotionally cheats on her and instead of asking herself, "is the relationship good for me?" is asking how to forgive him. Finances, effective communication, and everyday chores are the issues we face with a woman who feels like her partner is not giving as much as she does. And finally we have a caller that is dating her friend's brother- again- and it did not go well the first time. So how does she tell her friend now that it is happening again? “Time served is not a reason to be in a relationship.” THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS:HIDRATE SPARK: http://www.hidratespark.com/viall to get FREE U.S. shipping RELIEF BAND: http://www.reliefband.com and use promo code VIALL to receive 20% off RITUAL: http://www.ritual.com/VIALL for 10% off during your first three months LIQUID IV: http://www.liquidiv.com and use code: VIALL to get 25% off BEST FIENDS: http://www.bestfiends.com Please go to https://pca.eonline.com/pop-culture/the-pop-podcast-of-2020 and nominate The Viall Files for The E People's Choice Awards for favorite podcast Episode Socials: Viall Files @viallfiles Nick Viall @nickviall See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

E173 The Loser Doesn’t Go Home At Sunset with Nikki Ferrell
Nikki Ferrell joins us this week as we discuss the final GOAT episode of this Bachelor summer season, Juan Pablo. As the woman who “won” Juan Pablo’s heart, she had probably one of the most unique experiences on the show and never really had a chance to speak about how she was feeling about how she was treated, what people were saying about her, and how standing by her man was a decision she would not make again. Did he ever say more than I like you throughout the relationship? Does she still have texts saved from their break-up? What is her take on Clare’s upcoming season? And what cast member came back during filming to try to talk her out of staying with Juan Pablo? Nikki is nothing if not completely honest with us, and we could not love it more. “What girl is like, 'ooh that’s a sexy wink.'

On this episode of Ask Nick we start with a woman who has two challenges when it comes to sex and dating. She speaks with Nick about how to approach 1) discussing with her partners the fact that she is deaf and 2) her fear of vaginal penetration. Next, we speak with someone whose boyfriend is sending d*ck pics to other people when she is not around and collects nudes as a hobby. Racism is the topic of our next conversation, when a woman wants to bring her black love interest to a wedding with her family that she believes is racist. Finally, we chat with a daughter who is perhaps a little more concerned about her dad's dating patterns than she should be. “What you are willing to accept is far worse than dating.” Make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to [email protected] to be a part of our Monday episodes.

On this week's episode of Ask Nick we start with a simple story: girl meets boy, boy invites girl on a date, boy says his wife died, girl Googles and finds out he lied and she is very much alive. Then, we speak with a woman who is struggling with not feeling like a priority when her boyfriend would rather spend the weekend with friends than her. Next, someone is exhausted trying to get along with her boyfriend's family- and they've been together since she was 15. And finally, a couple have both had discretions in their relationship and keep telling each other half-truths instead of just being honest. “If I was married to someone and they were telling people I was dead I would want to know.” Make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to [email protected] to be a part of our Monday episodes.

E168 A Conversation with Suicide Survivor Kevin Hines
Today we are having one of those tough but important conversations on The Viall Files. Nick is joined by guest Kevin Hines, a suicide survivor who jumped off The Golden Gate Bridge and lived to tell the story. This conversation is honest, inspirational, and educational when it comes to identifying signs of possible suicide ideations in yourself and those around you. Kevin shares his story, his immediate thoughts once his feet left that bridge, and how the experience has not only made him become a motivational speaker for suicide prevention and mental health but has motivated him to take his second chance at life at making sure that jumping off that bridge will never be an option. Committing to life is not always the easiest road; but as we learn in this episode, four words can make all the difference: "I Need Help Now." Normalizing and speaking about this topic is how less lives will continue to be impacted by suicide. “I immediately regretted it.” Make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to [email protected] to be a part of our Monday episodes.

Open relationships and making sure the open lifestyle is being considered for the right reasons is the first conversation on today's episode of Ask Nick. Is making sure that you are the right person for your boyfriend a reason to open it up? Picking someone because they are great on paper- but there is no spark- is the next topic we tackle. Then, we speak with a woman who is dating a friend who is stable and whose company she enjoys, but who also isn't feeling a spark. Deciding between having a great companion or finding a great love is her dilemma. We then speak to a woman about the stereotypes she faces as a bi-sexual woman trying to date, and finally what to do when your friend drops you every time they get into a relationship. “That is not an entry level item.” Thank you for sending in your questions, we love hearing from you.

E166 Do All Vaginas Feel The Same? with Garcelle Beauvais
Today we are joined by the talented, strong, and sex positive, Garcelle Beauvais. You may know her from Coming To America, The Jamie Foxx Show, Fresh Prince Of Bel Air, and most recently The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills, but today we get a little more intimate with Garcelle as she and Nick jump right in talking about sex, and what men and women like- or dislike- in the bedroom. Her new podcast Going To Bed With Garcelle has all those sex positive conversations so on this episode she definitely doesn’t shy away from being open and honest about her experiences; and neither does Nick. In addition to all that, Garcelle shares her perspective on speaking with your kids about sex, and dating after divorce, in quarantine, and in the public eye. So sit back (maybe check to see if the kids are around before turning up the volume) and find out why we were happy to jump into bed with Garcelle. “I like some thug talk.” Make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to [email protected] to be a part of our Monday episodes.

E165 Ask Nick - Clarity is a Detox
Today on Ask Nick we start with the question: what would you do if your friend was found kissing your boyfriend instead of her own? The answer to this situation may surprise you as we first try to help someone stuck in a friend group that has a secret about to bust it apart. We then speak to someone who received a DM from another girl her guy was seeing, exposing the hurtful things he was saying about her and giving her the confidence to walk away, but making her nervous to trust in the dating pool again. Friends with benefits- with a twist- is the next topic as our caller struggles to understand why he doesn't want a relationship with her and knowing that her current reality will ultimately come to an end. Lastly, we speak with a woman who is broken-hearted over the end of a long-term relationship she feels came out of nowhere. “This might sting a little bit.” Thank you for sending in your questions, we love hearing from you.

Revenge is on the mind for our next caller after feeling racially oppressed by her previous relationship and is trying to find the most productive way to use the energy she has to find resolution. Then we speak with someone who is in a loving long-term relationship but is at a crossroads because she wants to have children in the future and her partner does not.

E160 All the Scenarios with Ali Manno (Fedotowsky)
Former Bachelorette Ali Manno (Fedotowsky) joins us on today’s episode of The Viall Files as we talk through her experience on The Bachelorette and what really happened when tattoos, songs, and girlfriends tried to derail her love story. Nick and Ali talk about their very different experiences on the show and how the show has evolved as the seasons have gone on through the years; breaking the 4th wall, showing things they would not have in the past, and what that might look like going forward. However, the first topic of conversation between these two leads are the rumors about what is going on with Claire as Nick received some information from someone inside The Bachelor bubble just as he was walking into the studio. Having been in that position themselves, these two have a lot of ideas on how the next season of The Bachelorette could play out. One thing they agree on? They will certainly be watching. “This is my life.” Make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode!

E159 Ask Nick - Sexual Free Agent
On today’s episode of Ask Nick we first speak with a frequent dater who is realizing that she is only seeing people that validate her ego instead of her heart. Then, Nick gives some advice to a woman who, because of her religious background, has not had many sexual experiences and is wondering if she is a-sexual or just doesn't know what turns her on…yet. Next, a husband's affair with a family friend has one of our callers trying to figure out her options and if she can continue to be with someone that she doesn’t trust (and recognizing that starting over at 40 might be freeing!) Finally, The Viall Files has its first couple who moved to a new state and in together prior to the pandemic which has since forced their living situation to be the complete opposite of what they had planned. “You deserve to be with someone that you trust and didn’t hurt you. ” Thank you for sending in your questions, we love hearing from you.

E158 Improvise, Adapt, and Overcome with Paul de Gelder
What if just showing up for work one day changed your life as you knew it? How would you react? Today Nick is joined by author, motivational speaker, and host of Shark Week, Paul de Gelder. As a Royal Australian Navy clearance diver, Paul was in the water working one morning when a bull shark attacked him, resulting in the loss of his right hand and right leg. Nick’s conversation with Paul covers the changes in your mindset when adapting to a new normal, the importance of facing your vulnerability, and the power of choice which can help you decide, “do I want a good life or a shit life?” Dating, overcoming, terminators and sharks; it’s a conversation not to miss. “Going to the gym with one hand and one leg can really throw out your bench press and squats.” Make sure you subscribe so you don't miss an episode and send your relationship questions to [email protected].

Nick reconnects this week with his Dancing With The Stars Co-Star and friend Chris Kattan.

E152 Reality Check with Reality Steve
Nick is joined by "Reality Steve" Carbone today because well … 2020! This conversation is something we never thought would happen but on the The Viall Files we always say that people can learn and grow, and hopefully come out better on the other side. Nick speaks bluntly with Steve, not only about the personal impact he has had on Nick's life but how spoilers have affected other cast members in their off-air real lives and in a very real way. Dropped videos, bad sources, being held accountable, and making some wrongs right are all topics we hit in this episode. So buckle up and make sure to catch some thoughts from Nick at the end of the episode as he reflects on the conversation. “…because you realized they’re human?” Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss any episodes!
