E745 RR - Bachelor Conspiracy, Tom Brady...

Nick Viall
About this episode

Welcome back to The Viall Files: Reality Recap Edition! Today, we are joined by Josh Peck and Ben Soffer to chat about all things reality television. First, Josh gives his thoughts on attending Nick and Natalie’s wedding. Then, we dive into a conspiracy that Nick may have a hand in Bachelor casting and/or producing. We also talk about the Tom Brady Roast and getting a DM from Gypsy Rose. Next, we break down this week’s episode of Vanderpump Rules and theorize why they are pausing production. Then, we talk about The Valley and how Josh feels watching his friend Kristen Doute on the show. Finally, we discuss Summer House and if we’re Team Carl or Team Lindsay after his dad tells him he wouldn’t marry them. 

“Tom Schwartz, God bless him, is the worst!”
