“…they flash their breasts and then they scream ‘woooo.’
Trust me…I did my research. Nice!
Hey ACC what are your thoughts on goodwill and the charity racket they are running?
A really great episode, and a fantastic season/
This episode was a killer last episode for the season! Can't wait for the next one! <3
Thanks for another season!
Anonymous Nobel Peace Prize to the vigilantes who created the dildo blackmail vid of this Grade A asshole.
His whole jury rant sounded so much like Donald Trump.
Truly disgusted by this guy!
I wonder if he's still friends with the Kardashians? 😂
He is.
P.s. This guy was a douche but am I the only one that felt bad for some the situations he found himself in during this story.
Hopefully.
After listening to these podcasts over and over again, I never noticed you say you produce this contact almost single handedly. All my podcast subscription come second to swindled now. I have never suggested a single podcast to so many different people with different tastes. I live for the way you pause and then bite, highlighting the douchiest of comments its absolutely brilliant. Your content is thoroughly enjoyable and after years of absorbing free podcasts I am pleased to be a Patreon of Swindled (my first). Enjoy the season break, looking forward to what comes next.
Thanks Mike!
I cannot believe my luck, while going through a twitter thread from the podcast Small Town Murder, finding a comment from one concerned citizen. The thread was surrounding the swindle pulled by a popular podcast network. Naturally he defended the victims suggesting a potential deep dive into the issue. I probably would have never found Swindled without that chance encounter but I am so glad it happened. Happy to finally be supporting a podcast I've been listening to since the early beginning.
Welcome!
Wow, both of these hit home for me! I bought a ton of those girls gone wild videos and watched all of the bum fight videos back in the day. I even met Bling Bling in San Francisco a couple years back...crazy world we live in!
