About Criminality

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!

   Melissa and Rebekah Put Themselves ON PAUSE

   It’s Not Goodbye, It’s Just a “Pause” (Housewife Style) Like any iconic Housewife worth her tagline, Melissa and Rebekah are officially putting themselves on pause. (Let’s be honest, the pause already started, but this is the formal announcement.) In this final (for now!) episode of CRIMINALITY, the hosts reflect on how it all began, why they’re stepping back, and what’s next. Melissa is still going strong with Moms and Mysteries, now dropping episodes twice a week! Rebekah is stepping behind the mic (for now) and into a full-time PR role for podcasts, but she’ll continue yapping about something on Instagram. And don’t worry: should a new Tori Spelling docuseries drop, a Housewife get handcuffed (inevitable), or the Sister Wives saga take another chaotic turn… the mics will be ON before you can say #ThisIsaCrisis. @momsandmyteries @hi_itsrebekah ________________________________ Thank you thank you for four amazing years of loving reality TV with us because it’s NOT A CRIME!

Published 25 Jul 2025 · Transcript excerpt

[…] One of my clues. Pay attention, please. So the Heaney family is made up of Richard and Miami, who were 48 years old and 45, whenever their episode was filmed. And they have three sons. Their sons are Falcon who is six, Rio who is eight, and Bradford who is 10, all boys. So the official ABC description of this family was this quote, the Heaney family devotes their time to scientific experiments that include looking for extraterrestrials and building a research gathering, flying saucer to send into the eye of the storm. And quote, I'm really comment. Are you waiting? Okay. So as you can imagine, this family is intense and eccentric. […]
