Nick Viall
About this episode

Welcome back to The Viall Files: Reality Recap Edition! Today, we are joined by Tara Schuster and Ciara Robinson to chat about all things reality television. First, we talk to Jessica Vestal about her time on Love is Blind Season 6. Then, we talk about Vanderpump Rules and Tom Sandoval’s dark thoughts (Trigger Warning). We also get to ask Tara about being on Watch What Happens Live with Rachel Leviss and Scheana Shay the night Scandoval broke. Next, we talk about Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and what we thought of the finale. Then, we tackle Episode 9 of Traitors. Finally, we talk about the Bachelor and how we finally saw a different side to Joey. 

“They act like they can convince themselves that they’re in love.”
