E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

108.338

I was rooting for them. I was rooting for them, too. I didn't watch.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

1208.26

But to squash a cheating rumor is pretty easy. It's basically being like, no, she didn't cheat on me. How does he know that?

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

1301.77

I don't think that Paige was asking this super huge, big thing of Craig just to like.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

1309.333

Yeah. I mean, I don't know. I don't disagree. But I also think that Paige has to navigate this breakup differently than Craig does because of her role, because she is a woman online. And I think that, like, I don't know. I don't necessarily think that he owes her anything.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

1327.702

But I think that when you are aware of the things that have been said about Paige, he could, and I'm not saying he has to, he could be like, you know what? Of course he could.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

1646.516

But does it feel better for her to go on her podcast and be like, yeah, I didn't want to be with him anymore, so I broke up with him?

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

1653.339

I mean, it's the truth, but could it be argued that she was trying to spare his feelings in that moment?

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

187.946

I think it was like a motivation. He was like, damn, even when I lost, I look good. And then he wasn't, you know who wasn't in Abbott Elementary? Any of the Chiefs. That's all I'll say about that.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

284.888

If Taylor really wanted to help Travis, she would have gotten on the field because I know she can run laps around them. You know what she does on those stadiums?

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3034.324

I'm a girl, dad. I'm right there. I got two girls, 12 and nine. And I was like, don't take a rocket scientist to figure out this isn't going to go well for me right now. But literally, as I was putting my vote up, you know, they cut a lot out. But I was like, well, Wes, you're going home tonight and I'm probably getting murdered tomorrow. But it was fun.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3051.206

And then I put it in there because I knew I knew the way he reacted and the way they responded to it. Logic was out the window. And I tried to bring it back home by being like, guys, I get it. But let's not be dumb and vote for the guy that we don't like over the person who is clearly. the traitor. And they were just like, yeah, we're not having it.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3068.633

And in their defense, I think, well, Dylan, I didn't realize would never have voted for Rob. I didn't realize Brittany was as positive on Rob as she was until that day. But overall, I think regardless, their thought process was, we don't like Wes. So either way, it's a win to get him out. And if he's not the traitor, we'll vote out Rob tomorrow.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3095.783

I mean, listen, I was having so much fun out there. Nick, I'm sure you're going to get the call. Do it. It was the best show I've ever done. I've only done two shows, which is not saying a lot, but it was so much fun. That's the only thing that the only regret I have is that I didn't get to play longer because production is great. The staff is great. The competitions were great.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3115.68

The place where we film is beautiful. So I was bummed watching it. I'm going to have FOMO for the rest of the season. I don't regret my move. If anything, I made the move too late. But I do regret the fact that I don't get to experience the things that they're getting to experience now. So that's bittersweet.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3141.531

Made no sense going for Wells, by the way, but I'd never vote that.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3221.141

I mean, listen, you know, the thing is you don't have a lot of time during the day to talk to each other. You really don't. And I didn't, I saw Wes for what it was. He realized they were on a tight time window. We needed people to talk and nobody was really giving anything. Like Sam and I were one night are saying, Rob, I think you're a traitor. I'm coming for you.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3239.873

And the next night they're voting for Wes. They just, it's hard when you're playing with people who don't necessarily do these games all the time. But yeah, to your point, I think, I think Wes didn't maybe read the room correctly in that moment. He said to me that he made a joke that just didn't land. That was a joke. That was his humor.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3254.943

But like you had said, they don't know him, but I will say this. Wes is his thought processes. I'm there to make a good TV show. That's why I keep getting cast on these shows. And in his defense between him and Rob, to go back to my point earlier, they've been on like 20, 30 shows together. I've been on two and I won my first show. So, you know, I guess it depends on what your goals are.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3276.037

If you're trying to get cast on the next show, probably the right move in the character that he's playing. But if you're trying to win this particular game, maybe not the right decision.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3290.694

They love it. They love it. My oldest daughter is 12, so I'm just starting not to be cool with her. But they love Dylan Efron, obviously. Of course. So I had a big premiere party. I let her invite all her friends. I was suddenly cool again. And the only troubling part was... My daughter, who was like this sweet, innocent little tenly, like never really gave me any indication she likes boys.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3314.753

And she's like, dad, can you do me a favor? The girls were wondering if you could FaceTime Dylan real quick. And I was like, sure, no problem. I FaceTimed them and no joke. It was like rabid dogs for a piece of meat, including my daughter. And I'm like, I almost had to kick her away from the phone. I'm like, all right, Dylan, I hate you. Bye. I got to go.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3333.064

But yeah, no, I'm suddenly cool again for at least the next six months.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3339.89

Nick, get ready for it, man. It was the most disturbing thing I've ever seen in my life. The way she acted in that moment, I was like, oh my God, she's never leaving the house again. That's crazy.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

335.944

They did win by a lot. I think if I was Jason Kelsey and I got to just sit back and watch my boys beat my brother, that would be really fun.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3364.261

This is the best thing that could have happened for him. His biggest downfall was his blind spot to Rob, kind of similar with me with Danielle. And him not having Rob in the game no more is going to open up paths for him because initially when I gave him the shield, I had a lot of hope for his potential. And he was so skewed by Rob that he started to lose...

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3382.737

his sight of what he should be focusing on. And that intuition kind of escaped him a little bit. And my hope going forward is now he reels it back in, realizes he's there for himself. People view him as a faithful. And so hopefully he can ride that wave and get back on track because although we're only halfway, a little bit more than halfway through, there's not a lot of game to play left.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3402.042

So you got what, three, four episodes. So now's the time you got to start getting those traders out or they're going to win.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3422.386

Yeah, me and Danielle have been close for 10 years and I always wanted to play a show with her. She's the best big brother player to not win. And so we had a personal relationship. We had a lot of, and Nick knows this, we had a lot of conversations off camera that are much more personally connected and not about the game that you remember when you're playing.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3440.273

And so she got me in the blind spot there. And I will say this in Danielle's defense, There's a reason nobody's saying her name at the round table. Yes, we were suspicious of her, especially me and Brittany after the riddle competition. But I got distracted by Brittany's behavior in defense of Rob because I was certain about Rob. And that threw me off Danielle's trail.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3459.207

But she's playing a pretty good game. She hasn't been mentioned yet. Yes, she's emotional, but she's been consistent in that emotional situation.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3467.774

emotional display that she put on she's constantly crying over everything so to the point we were all kind of perceiving it as she's just this game is too much for her she's paranoid but overall she's still there she got rid of Rob I think it was a great move giving me up for Rob to lower his guard to then just vote for him again. Right. I mean, it's a good move.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3491.28

So I know she's getting a tough edit and people are like, it's so obvious he's a traitor, but you guys have the privilege of knowing who the traitor is. Yeah.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3534.346

Yeah. And you had you had Jeremy who was on to her and he was one that I'm very close with. He's my favorite survivor player. So him saying it stuck in my head as well when he said it and then got murdered. I was like, that's not good. But I would have to be transparent now that I'm out. Like, I don't think I ever would have went after her.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3550.526

And even at the end, I don't know if I would have had the balls to cut her.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3553.61

because let's be honest you guys know this it's it's about the journey not the destination with traders like nobody's like who's gonna win the 250 000 it's more about like how are they gonna get there what's gonna happen in the meantime so i don't know what i would have done but i will say one of my biggest weaknesses in that game was my friendship with danielle for sure but i love her i have no ill will toward her or anybody else for that matter all-star traders you would go back for another run if you were offered i'm assuming

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3580.97

Yeah. I mean, it was a great experience. I would go back. Here's the thing. And you might even have more insight on this. And I'd actually like your opinion on it because I feel like this show is blowing up so much that it's kind of becoming like the next dancing with the stars and the pool of people that they're going to be able to pull from is going to be so vast.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3599.417

I think the nobody's like me, the fact that I got one shot in there is like, I better just be happy with that. I feel like it's, it's getting big now.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

360.499

Oh, he said, I would be lying if I said I don't want the Eagles to win. I want them to. But I also want Travis Kelsey to win. So that's a long-winded way of saying, I just want a good football game. And whoever wins, I'm going to be happy for that guy. It wasn't really that good of a football game. It was kind of a blowout.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3760.828

You ain't wrong. And that was part of the concept in there where you have to quickly figure out people's motives for being there.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3767.313

As you alluded to, and without saying names, there are people that their metric for success on traders is how long can I last? Yeah. Like how many, how much airtime can I get? How long can I go on the show where people like, you know, Rob and myself and we're playing the game. If I go home, I go home, but I'm playing, you brought me here to catch a killer. That's what I'm going to do.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3787.648

And if I go home early, that's fine. But yeah, you're right. We're putting more of a strategic element to the game. And I could see there were certain people that didn't give a shit who went home as long as it wasn't them. And that can be, if it's all people like that and everyone's doing throwaway votes, it could actually hurt the show. So you make a valid point. Yeah.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3824.474

Hey, listen, I'm not mad about it from your lips to God's ears. I hope I get the chance to play again. I, it was a great experience. I was my first time playing a show in 10 years. You've done the reality TV thing. It's not always a positive experience, but the behind the scenes, the mental health aspect of it. I was fucked up after big brother.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3841.728

I was in there almost a hundred days and I was an undercover detective for four years. And that was harder. And so having people behind the scenes calling you every week, even as the show's airing to be like, hey, how you doing? What'd you think? Are you cool? Is anything you need to talk about? They have doctors on staff. I was like, wow, this is definitely different than past experiences.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

3872.706

No, man, I'm just enjoyed it. Thanks for having me on. And if, uh, if I ever get to see you in there, don't be a traitor. Don't kill me.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

4143.658

He was like, I finally have respect. When he walked the trailer for the next episode, when he walks up to what? It's like they're going to kill someone face to face.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

4151.781

When he walked, he was like, you know what? I finally got the respect I wanted. If I go, I go. I died happy. I was like, you know what, Tom? I'm happy for you. No one takes him seriously. He's the perfect court jester.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

4264.716

What is it? I was like, girl, if you don't know, you're lucky. I honestly think I would have handled that challenge really well. Non-relatable.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

4489.869

The dress is too short. Not the shortest dress I've ever seen.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

528.895

I wouldn't say those are baggy. That's a good tight-fitting boot cut with a flare.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

548.925

I think that him calling out Drake like that in those jeans is the best thing that could ever happen. Like if your biggest hater wears a bootcut flare and everyone cheers for him for your demise. It's going to be hard for you to come back from that.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

579.955

He called Drake a pedophile and everyone like cheered. Drake is suing.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

597.144

Everyone in the recording academy went, a minor. And they literally, during Kendrick's performance, they unmuted the audience during that line. So you could hear everyone in the stadium yell, a minor. That was a good performance. Yes.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

6015.465

Yeah. Imagine one of the group dates is going to the Beverly Center and then the other one is a private jet. I would be so mad.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

6033.27

I'm rooting for her. I want her to win. I love her. Which one is she?

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

6038.133

She has the rocks. She's kind of a little weirdo. I like her. I'd hang out with her.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

6066.722

Why am I not? I've been working on a Britney, you guys. Why am I not out there?

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

6107.186

Can we read it? Disgusting. I guarantee I am twice the size of any man you've ever been with. I could certainly pick apart all of your anatomy, but I'll remain classy in the public eye and keep it between you and me.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

614.915

And he cheesed so hard when he said, hey, Drake. And he brought both of his ex-girlfriends out.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

6150.122

No, her Mormon trauma came back up as soon as the word Osmond got uttered.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

6400.489

It's, it's like for, for Meredith to argue with Brittany is like, It's like square peg round hole. It just does not compute. Because Meredith is so much smarter than Brittany. And to talk to somebody who is just truly not going to understand anything you're saying because of her perspective.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

6605.106

Boom. I think that if they were both back on Salt Lake City, the entire show would implode and that the balance that they've reached would be completely ruined.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

6679.035

Monica. Yeah. We need Monica. We need the only one that can take Lisa Barlow down is Monica.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

I was walking through Target the other day, and the way that they have multiple aisles of the cutest little Valentine's Day gifts, and I'm like, it really is so easy.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

6759.637

Exactly. I think the thing is, like, maybe maybe Jen comes back healed. Maybe Jen comes back with her anger issues like figured out where she is not fighting with vitriol and hate and disgust. But the thing about these girls is as much as they're fighting and as much as their hate as they hate each other, it's all out of joy. They are enjoying doing this. They're enjoying throwing these.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

6781.44

Angie, when Angie blacks out and says someone has one foot on a banana peel, she is doing that out of like a joy of fighting. And I think that Jen Shaw is doing it out of like such a deep place of like meanness and hatred that it just like sucks all the air out of the room. And I don't enjoy it on my TV screen.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

680.598

Okay, well, Drake's hiding in Australia right now where Kendrick is on stage at the Super Bowl. So I think we know who won. Yeah. Game over.

The Viall Files

E882 - Traitors w/ Derrick, Bach w/ Alli Jo, Paige & Craig, LVP Talks James Kennedy, and Super Bowl Recap

6876.189

Which the law school never actually practiced law. I'm going to miss these girls so much on the offseason.
