Production
editIn a Q&A with BBC News, the anonymous host, a former government worker[1] with a background in graphic design and audio production,[3] claimed the inception of the podcast was motivated by the immorality of a "capitalistic culture".[4] According to the Tampa Bay Times, "A Concerned Citizen" created Swindled after failing to find an existing podcast on similar topics.[1] The host explained to MEL Magazine that the underlying theme in all of the episodes is greed and a "social culture that values getting rich as quick as possible."[5]
Each episode begins with a prelude story to the main subject, followed by the theme music consisting of stringed and brass instruments, and then a structured narrative interspersed with archival audio, suspenseful scoring, and dry humor.[6]
In addition to the writing, research, and audio production, "A Concerned Citizen" creates all of the visual artwork for the podcast.[7] The show's music is written and performed by multi-instrumentalist Trevor Harte Howard using the moniker "Deformr".[8]
Since its inception, Swindled has remained independent of podcasting networks.[9] The podcast's advertising sales are supported by AdLarge Media based in New York, New York.[10]
