Send us a text We want to clarify that the information discussed in this episode is based on reports from Reddit users and statements from Shannon and James’ TikToks or their Instagram activity. We do not claim to verify the accuracy of any claims made here.

Send us a text To know Sophie is to know her loathing of Nick Viall. But where and how did this one-sided feud begin? From his slut-shaming days as a Bachelorette contestant to his (unfortunately) ubiquitous podcast where he delivers heavily misogynistic dating advice while actively covering up a cheating scandal with his wife (a woman 18 years his junior), to his many controversies and terrible reality-TV takes, to his baby-adorned thirst traps… Sophie and Christy walk you through the Nick Viall lore from the top.
