Welcome back to The Viall Files: Reality Recap!
Jazzy Collins joins us to pull back the curtain on reality TV casting, from Love Island and The Bachelor to The Traitors, what makes someone castable, spotting clout chasers, and why villains don’t know they’re villains. Plus, Stephani Sosa from Dancing with the Stars: The Next Pro stops by to talk the competition, Ezra, dream dance partners, and that viral accidental injury moment. We also get into the In The City reunion, Kyle and Amanda, Nicolandria, and bring on TikTok’s Kayda impersonator for a very unserious villa meditation.
“Kayda, what do you think could end all world suffering?”
