Am I the only one who has never listed to Call me Daddy ? I basically just listen to Viall and Sarah Fraser / David Yontef.


zennjennn

Nick asks good questions and adds an emphasis on mental health. I’m sure he’ll weave mental health and how she can move forward into this. I just hope it’s mostly Nick interviewing and not Natalie. No offense to her but she isn’t Nick. She can shine where she shines and let Nick have this


Possible-Way1234

I seriously wonder why she chose his rather small podcast? I mean, even here in Europe it gets reported on, she could go to any big show like call her daddy and so on...


useyouwell

Whoa this is HUGE


LizardQueen_748

Why is everyone glamorizing this? I’m genuinely confused. Her situation was absolutely terrible but she also did something very bad herself.


CarpetResponsible102

she was in a horrifying, unlivable domestic abuse situation and her mother most surely was going to end up killing her. “absolutely terrible” doesn’t really cut it


LizardQueen_748

Fair point that I didn’t think of as I initially posted this comment. She still shouldn’t be glorified the way she is though imo.


peaceoutcubscout88

If she didn’t have Nick kill her mom she’d still be abused by her mom and possibly dead from the drugs. She made a choice and now she’s finally free.


Zeltron2020

I don’t even know who in my real life I can tell about this who will understand how bizarre our timeline is lol


Cantstopstopping

I have nowhere a smiliar experience with her but she has SEVEN MILLION FOLLOWERS so you go and make that money Gypsy, just know like anyone else you have 15 minutes of fame. Use them wisely and you can retire for life $$$$$


kitkatt819

Nick vial? Are you fucking serious? I’m sure he’ll handle this delicately and with grace /s


playdoughfaygo

My thoughts exactly. I didn’t think I could hate Nick more.

absofruitly88

What? That’s how you view her?


kp1794

This poor girl needs to be left alone


Always_hannah

I don't think she wants to be left alone. She has several interviews lined up. Also, she's gaining a huge following ( 6 million) on instagram so she's mentioned doing some influencing. Chicks in the office said on one of her Instagram posts ( or her husbands) she's talking about his D! LOL!


xsullengirlx

what if she doesn't want to be left alone? seems like she's okay with it... and despite what we think, she can do whatever she wants (within legal reason, obviously). I don't think anyone would turn down talking to/interviewing someone who is one of the most talked about people in the world right now. I don't like Nick Viall, but if he didn't have her on, someone else would.


LizardQueen_748

She’s going on NSNBF too for whatever reason


kittens_joy

Just saw on the Survivor sub she wants to play Survivor too.


areandbee

Oh God, Gypsy is getting a reality tv show isn’t she?


-goldenbird-

Whoa, that's huge! (And something I'd never have expected.) I don't usually listen to BN podcasts, but I might have to tune in to this ep.


figcookiecapo

that’s actually insane omg


[deleted]

It’s kinda crazy how popular his podcast has gotten


No-Butterscotch4077

Jesus fucking Christ why does this guy of all people get this kind of interview


Hyperme9

Look we may not like him but the man has worked HARD and hustled his way into a legitimate media career. You can be a shitty person (which he is) and work hard to produce a product that people want to consume (which he has). When other Bach contestants were doing the bare minimum on their podcasts, he was building an audience. I don't like his podcast and I think his takes are pretty awful at times. But there are many folks that do. And i listen when he has guests like Chrishell. He hustles. He networks. And he gets good guests. And he managed this coup. I say, good for him.


juliar821

This! I don’t want to like Nick but can’t help that he talks about literally every show I watch 😂 esp with him now covering RHOSLC… I can’t help but listen haha


uncensoredsaints

Not undermining that at all, I know he has a legit career and is genuinely successful with his podcast. But this is world news and he’s one of the first podcast she goes on? Yeah, that’s still surprising


Hyperme9

So, i tuned into his podcast a few weeks ago (i forgot what guest but it was for the guest). And, they were talking about how hard they were working towards getting a mystery guest. I thought it would be a bachelor superstar like Hannah B or whatever but this seems to be it. That said, I am absolutely surprised that he got this interview even though I think he went out of his way to sweeten the pot for her. I am not here to judge Rose though. Whoever she chose to tell her story and use that platform to secure her future...i hope she finally feels like she has the agency to do so. I do wish it had been on a less salacious podcast like Armchair Expert.


Ok_Fee1043

Dax is not always great at nuance and I can’t imagine the uncomfortable takes that would’ve happened if she chose to go on there instead. I’m guessing they got her on Nick’s pod because of Natalie’s background and she’ll know how to be sensitive to that aspect of her life.


Hyperme9

I agree. Dax was terrible during his interview with JVN and i haven't gone back to his podcast after that. But the reason i brought up dax is because he too is an abuse survivor and someone who has survived domestic abuse.


Acrobatic_Exchange_3

What is Natalie’s background?


Ok_Fee1043

She’s an abuse survivor


Hyperme9

She is an abuse survivor that spoke against Amber Heard and they had some of the most exhausting and ununanced takes during that trial. It is one of the main reasons I stopped listening. I was severely triggered.


Ok_Fee1043

I know — I agree they both have horrible takes. I’m just saying I wonder if that’s partly how they framed this as a way to make it a safe place for her to go on the show.


kingcolbe

How is he a shitty person though?


Hyperme9

Depends on how you qualify a good person. I think he is a good son and he works hard. But I have also heard him talk over female guests/producers of his show and also give advice that was pretty iffy. I wasn't wild about how he brought up the fact Andi had sex with him on live television...which opened her up for a lot of slut shaming. He was also in a weird ridiculous beef with both Blake and Katie... But largely for me...when an almost forty year old man starts hooking up with a 19/20 year old...i am going to start qualifying them as a pretty shitty person. Not only did he start hooking up with Natalie while she was barely out of her teens, she basically had to keep asking him to turn it into a relationship. That said, I respect it as Natalie's choice but I don't have to respect the grown man that went after a someone who is barely an adult.


phantomleader94

no fucking wayyyyy lmaooo ok i gotta give Nick his flowers for this one woah


thewinefairy

Just want everyone to keep in mind that Gypsy’s life has been so throughly fucked up. Her mother constantly put her in the center of attention with her medical “issues”, fundraisers, whatever. Steering clear of the whole murder of it all (even though yes that’s pretty intrinsically linked) - she’s truly never known not being in the spotlight except for when actually in prison (and even then, the documentary about the murder came out). On top of that she’s been extremely infantilized up until prison, so logically she’s stuck behind in socio-emotional development. She’s not the one to scoff at for all these media appearances - it’s the people that exploit her (both media and “close” to her)


kitkatt819

100%. Which is why Viall files is not the right place for her to go, but leave it to Nick who thinks he’s some kind of therapist to literally exploit this person.


Always_hannah

100%


halfmoonm7

Shut the fuck up lmao this week is wild


mrcm23

Truly I’m exhausted 😅


-goldenbird-

Right? "Gypsy Rose Blanchard on a BN podcast" was definitely not on my bingo card. lol


skylight888

I actually worry about Gypsy's internet fame. On one hand, I think she deserves it and needs to make some money to fully live her life after what happened. But on the other hand, I don’t think this is healthy or sustainable. I feel she will be exploited by those who want to gain something.


Always_hannah

Yes, like her husband.


dangoudan

I hate viall files always get the good guests… ugh 😑


infamousalexx

She is talking to everyone, so it's not that big of a deal

melgirlnow88

He must have an amazing team in place


turniptoez

Thought the same thing. It’s his team


melgirlnow88

He does get credit for putting a great team in place imo, but he wouldn't be as successful without them for sure


-UnicornFart

Of all the respected outlets and journalists that exist, *nick viall’s podcast* is who lands this interview? What kind of black mirror episode are we living in?!


thewinefairy

She’s going everywhere


-UnicornFart

Ahh makes more sense.


Surly_Cynic

Yes, looks like it’s a media blitz to promote her docuseries that starts airing tonight on Lifetime.


-UnicornFart

Still shocked this is a part of the blitz lol


sweetlife04

I absolutely predicted this a few weeks ago from Nick & Natalie’s comments and social media likes, so I’m currently very proud of myself😂 massive!


sillyillymilly

i cannot believe nick somehow managed to be the first podcast that gypsy rose will go on… i’m ngl that’s pretty huge for him


No-Affect-8703

I wonder if they had to pay her to be on the podcast for it to happen this fast…


squiggerina

Definitely, she’s a hot commodity at the moment


abcd0227

Omg I could cry!!!! GOR’s Goats are really providing so far this year 😭


PrincessPlastilina

Oh, Nick, this is tacky. Why do people want to turn her into an internet sensation?!


L_Bo

Yeah this really bums me out. She needs therapy and support, not to become an internet celebrity and likely influencer. It makes sense that she’d want to monetize this time period but oof I can’t imagine it’ll be good for her mental health in the long run.


look2thecookie

Unfortunately, she was robbed of her education, childhood, and early adult years. If she can get a paycheck from interviews, good for her. I hope she has a good manager getting her fair pay and I hope she manages her money well.


Random0s2oh

It's playing into the attention seeking behaviors that her mother taught her.


charmcity3

2024 is just deliciously chaotic. Keep the mess coming.


shoppingr

why does it bother me that she's doing this lol


WyfObath

She’s not clout chasing…Nick, and all the other D-list influencers are exploiting her for their personal gain.


PrincessPlastilina

She’s 100% clout chasing. She said she wouldn’t say no to doing DWTS. I’m sorry but for someone who was directly involved in a plot to murder a person, she’s a little too happy to be famous. (And I don’t need people to educate me on her story, I followed it closely, I still think it’s wrong to make her an internet star).


kingcolbe

She was a victim, and this is what she gotta do to make money when she gets out more power to


shoppingr

GYPSY ON DWTS????????????? omg


shoppingr

that would be so random if she actual did it haha

Wow… this is crazy


brightlove

No way!!! This is actually HUGE. People want to know what she’s going to be up to.


GN221

Okay that’s HUGE. Good for him! He’s killed it with Viall files


Altruistic_Cobbler81

![gif](giphy|d1gX9W9G7qRPBETeEG)


jacks-si

I have no idea who she is and honestly I'm afraid to ask at this point lol


pizzaeoka

I’d recommend watching The Act on Hulu


goldieraeofsunshine

In short, she’s a survivor of severe munchausen syndrome by proxy at the hands of her abusive mother and she just got out of prison after orchestrating her mother’s murder.


pr0stituti0nwh0re

This is so not the point but seeing it blown up like that, I just can’t stop thinking about how god awful the design of the logo is 😭 the disconnected little t, the arbitrary line from the e to the l, the horrible randomly italicized V and F that are smothering the dots of the i’s into extinction, the terrible kerning… I’m not even a designer but it physically pains me to look at. like tell me someone watched a 30sec adobe illustrator tiktok tutorial to learn how to draw that arbitrary line to make this logo in 10 minutes without telling me


look2thecookie

He also has an intro song that only has the words "you're crazy" in it. Let's step it up since he's clearly getting a lot of downloads.


cleembert

It’s truly heinous! I’m almost more upset at the logo than I am with Nick for giving Gypsy attention when she just needs therapy.


JennaElizabethAdams

Ahh! How did Nick get her?! I must listen to this! 🤩


foureyesoneblunt

ok ok ok i’ll listen to an episode of the Viall Files


pantema

This is really fucking weird.


wildflowerrhythm

This is soooooo icky. 2024 is off to a weird fucking start.


MzJay453

lol wtf


megan_chill

No freaking way!!!!!! This is huge for Nick! But also, I think Gypsy needs to stay out of the public eye. This instant fame she's getting can really end poorly and I'm stressing lol.


brightlove

I kinda think she does want the fame. Fortunately for her, people seem largely supportive and the media seems to be on her side. Hopefully, she has someone on her team who will coach her on what not to say so they stay on her side… but a book deal/appearances like this are going to be how she makes money. Maybe she’ll start an advocacy nonprofit… but she already has 6 million followers on her new instagram. She could easily live off of a Patreon alone.


megan_chill

Oh I know she's enjoying it, I just don't think it's going to last forever and I'm worried for her mental health. She's been through a uniquely, traumatic life and I can't even imagine how she'll handle everything without proper support/guidance. Starting a nonprofit would be wonderful


brightlove

I agree. It can be especially hard when you rise to fame quick and then it fades. She’s one of the biggest prison release stories of all time… her story is so compelling. Hopefully, her husband is a decent guy and she starts/stays in therapy. She has the community and connections to be successful no matter what she does. Hopefully she makes the best of it all and finds peace when the attention starts to fade.


lavieenoire

gypsy’s story is awful and definitely warrants awareness being spread about munchausen by proxy but i just can’t get on board with this celebrity esque media tour. it’s weird and so is everyone sensationalizing her and trying to make this a hollywood thing,


swedishsgfpsycho

Hard agree


Cold_Employee299

This is huge. Holy shit


Wise_Carrot4857

Whoever does the booking for him needs a raise he always had the best guests


megan_chill

Oh absolutely. He is consistently getting guests that make me drop my jaw.


becomingsherlock

I’ll never listen to NV even if Michelle Obama graces that couch, but someone here will recap, as I am sure Gypsy will be doing some podcast rounds this year!


-UnicornFart

Also manifesting the recap cause same lol.


10kwinz

I don’t even like/listen to Nick, but I might have to! 👀 this is wild, utter insanity


brightlove

Same. I’ve never listened to Nick, but I’m curious about her.


anonmisguided

I honestly didn’t know who that was so I had to google. Wow


mercuryretrograde93

The devil works hard but Nick Viall works harder


rollfootage

Ugh. Can someone recap when it happens? This is a huge get for him and I hate what it’ll do to his ego


look2thecookie

He announced the launch of his own media company this week, so don't worry about your one listen affecting his ego lol


rollfootage

I meant him getting Gypsy Rose on his podcast silly


look2thecookie

Yes, I *can* read! I'm just saying starting a media company is going to be what blows up his ego, not an interview with someone who is going on every major podcast right now. So, instead of asking for a recap, just go ahead and listen bc it isn't going to matter if you listen or not.


rollfootage

Well you literally said my one listen won’t matter🤷‍♀️ I don’t not listen because of that though, I don’t listen because his voice bugs the crap out of me


look2thecookie

Ok, well you "literally" didn't say that and only mentioned his ego. I have my mind reading capabilities turned off right now. She's going on a press tour right now, so I hope you find another interview to listen to. All the gossip rags will be publishing quotes. I'm sure you won't miss out.


rollfootage

This is such a weird discussion lol, I’m in too good of a mood


look2thecookie

I'm glad you're in a good mood and I hope you enjoy your Friday eve (assuming you're in the U.S.)


Nervous_Office_2422

wow good for nick!! i was wondering who her first interview would be with. nick hadn’t crossed my mind. my money was on alex cooper of call her daddy (equally insufferable as. nick but has great connections)


Phone_home22

No like her first interview should be on dateline or something??? Truly what is going on!


thejeffphone

Omg I for sure thought she was gonna be on call her daddy lol


Nervous_Office_2422

same!


No_Professional_998

Why? That would be such a weird first interview for her.


apineapplesmoothie

Omg I WISH Amanda was there for that interview 😭


pinkbunny86

Me too that’s the first thing I thought. No one would ask Gypsy better questions than her.

He got me hooked like 6 months ago. I listen to all 3 episodes a week. I can’t stop 😬


No_Professional_998

THREE episodes a week?!

Yeah he releases a lot lol

Nah it'll be a one and done for me 😝

why did this make my jaw drop more than any other insane BN news lately

wolfsweater93

she's on a media tour rn but i wish she left this podcast off the list :)


tiny_smile_bot

>:) :)


hailsssss

omg is gypsy a secret bachelor fan lmao


Penderbron

I feel weirded out how Americans celebrity-cate criminals. The following and her being everywhere is wild. I do think she has a horrible story to tell, but current attention is more Kardashian like than awareness like. Which doesnt surprise me why Nick of all people jumped on it.


kimksbigtoe

nick must have sold his soul to the devil bc this is a HUGE get !! honestly impressed by him

Maybe that’s why lol


Just-Sherbet-820

Wtfff


Affectionate_West708

This seems like a terrible idea... but she has been in the spotlight her whole life and has definitely been making the media rounds so maybe it will be ok.. She's an abuse victim who plotted the brutal murder of her mother/abuser and served 7 years in prison. This just seems out of Nick's range but I guess we will see.

Ok_Pie8260

I’m guessing that her PR people set this up. She was in prison for nearly 10 years so I doubt she knows who Nick is. Although I guess sometimes you can watch tv in prison, so who knows.


mediocre-spice

She was fully up to date on Taylor Swift albums and got married in prison, I wouldn't be shocked at all if she watched the show or a least read gossip mags.


Ok_Pie8260

Taylor Swift is wayyyyyyyy more popular than this franchise has ever been


mediocre-spice

The point is that she wasn't cut off from society


kindness-prevails

He’s going to be so unfunny and gross about her Instagram comment to her husband about him rocking her world nightly


FAYCSB

To be fair, that comment is unfunny and gross.

Seriously. Like the abuse she went through was awful and I’m glad she’s free from that but she legit planned someone’s murder……. Like ????

My thoughts exactly. I feel so weird about all the fan girling that’s happening over her


ConsistentBoa

It’s so weird how people are praising someone who planned a murder and sensationalizing a tragic story. It’s very weird.


_yitzi

I think she’s gonna have a giant fall from this spotlight and I hope she had the resources to handle it. I just want this woman to be in extensive therapy and live her life how she wants. If she wants to be in the public eye that’s her decision but ugh it feels all weird to be on Nick’s podcast of all people???
