Dates & Mates with Damona Hoffman

Nick Viall & The Bachelor Beginnings: Rewind


Listen Later

Nick Viall, TV personality and host of the hit podcast The Viall Files, gets real about modern dating—from DM slides to ghosting games—and why the story we tell ourselves about love might be holding us back. In this candid conversation, Nick reflects on his years in the Bachelor franchise, what finally made love stick, and the overlooked ways women can help men feel safe, seen, and emotionally available. 


Plus, in a special Dear Damona & Dear Nick segment, the two team up to answer your toughest love dilemmas—from long-distance moving logistics to mixed signals that never quite become dates.


What you’ll learn:

  • How to slide into DMs without overthinking it
  • Why the “how we met” story isn’t as important as we think
  • What men wish women knew about emotional safety
  • How to handle a situationship that keeps circling back

  • This episode is part of our Rewind Series, where we revisit some of the most powerful and timeless conversations from the Dates & Mates vault.
