Intriguing topics and presentation. And sprinkles in a little dark humor and wit. Definitely worth a listen.

Thoughtful, well researched and written

Perhaps the best podcast currently releasing episodes. Thoroughly researched and presented in a very entertaining manner, I really can't find anything to criticize about Swindled. Highly recommended!

Concerned punches up, never down or sideways. And consistently too. Dry wit is a bonus. swoon : )

In the past 3 weeks I have listened to all 97 episodes currently available. The stories range from scam artists to bad government players to companies that put profit above customer safety. Although I listen to a lot of true crime and the ilk, this podcast provided stories that I hadn’t heard before or new details to familiar stories that I didn’t know.

Episode of note:
I was young when the Love Canal controversy was hot news, so I appreciated hearing about the history. The podcast author used recordings from interviews and newscasts from the time, which is common to many of the episodes. This was a particularly powerful show and worth listening to again.

I’m probably going to become a patron so I can get the bonus episodes on Patreon, and I’m eager for the next episode to be released.

Binge-worthy

I really enjoy listening to this podcast. It is a good reality check and is very well put together and delivered. I only gave it 4 stars because it does seem that there is a lot of bias in some of these episodes that are more political. I prefer to approach some of these issues from a non bias point of view. But I still think this podcast does a great job at bringing up facts as well. Worth listening to even if you disagree on some of the bias.

Very Intriguing and Thought Provoking

This is the best researched and well written podcast out there. It is not full of a lot of gabbing or personal details but it goes straight to the CON. I love the writers voice - and dry, witty humor. I have listened to all episodes and they do not disappoint.

Hooked

Witty and well-researched with more than a few gut-punches thrown in. I recommend this podcast to everyone I know.
