To (Nik) Russian with Love...and Delusions

On today’s episode, Rebekah is taking you on a real journey to a reality show you’ve probably never seen and not because it was an early aughts one-hit-wonder, but because it was never actually a show. Wait, what? Join her as she introduces you to a young man with big dreams, four names, and zero idea of how to produce a reality show —  but he doesn’t let that stop him, because Nik Russian is nothing if not a dreamer. Despite his lack of credentials, 30 willing participants give up their jobs, homes and a year of their lives for a shot at winning big and becoming famous - what could go wrong? Let Rebekah count the ways.

CRIMINALITY is a podcast for those of us who love reality TV, true crime, and want to hear all the juicy stories where the two genres intersect. Every other Friday, hosts, Melissa (one half of Moms and Mysteries podcast) and Rebekah (host of DIE-ALOGUE podcast), will share the true story of a reality personality who faced more than just champagne problems. You won’t find murder stories here, but fear not, there are crimes a plenty - fraud, arrests, mugshots, scandals, and more. CRIMINALITY: Because loving reality isn’t a crime!
