.@swindledpodcast "THE HOSTAGE - Dead Man's Line" - "A two-day kidnapping; a gun-at-head press conference with a sawed-off shotgun, modified into something called a "Dead Man's Line," pointed at Tony Kiritsis' nemesis, president, mortgage company - the man who done him wrong, now hostage of Kiritsis - the fruition of a fraught, unhinged feud you won't forget, or don't remember. And just when i think 'A Concerned Citizen' (dear deadpan narrator) is going to let joke-fruit hang, he breaks through the sacred third, or minor fourth wall (Leonard Cohen joke) ... but black comedy and gallows humor come at the least expected time and place. The only chance Americans like giving more than a second chance, is NO second chance at all! This is schadenfreude-vigilantism: a Podcast pounded into a schnitzel of retrospective reconstruction; justice-mongering for the present, sent as a much-needed gift from the past." - by @mrjyn
SEE THE FILM SITE: Dead Man's Line for full story, AND click video to watch at least 8 of the most amazing LIVE CLIPS OF KIRITSIS! Swindled is a podcast that utilizes narrative storytelling, archival audio, and immersive soundscapes to tell true stories of white-collar criminals, con artists, and corporate evil. The anonymous host, using “A Concerned Citizen” as his moniker, recounts tales of real life, financially motivated crimes including embezzlement, frauds, potion schemes, environmental disasters, corporate negligence, corruption, and more.
