About this episode

Welcome back to The Viall Files: Going Deeper Edition! To start things out, the household Zooms with Nick and Natalie on their honeymoon to get all of the details about their trip to Puerto Rico! We also talk about some true-crime headlines, the Golden Bachelorette announcement, and how we think Tom Sandoval is trying to redeem himself. Then, we talk to Laverne Cox about stardom, dating and relationships, her childhood, becoming comfortable with her body, her acting career and Orange Is The New Black. We also have a Texting Office Hours caller who is trying dating apps for the first time and doesn’t know if men's behavior is normal or if she should be doing something different.

“B*tch, that’s why I’ve been dating unavailable men!”
