Summary

The triangle might be your favorite musical instrument and you might collect original vinyl albums from the world’s greatest trianglists. Or maybe you’ve enjoyed being “Team Edward” or “Team Jacob” in one of literature’s greatest love triangles. But unless you’re an accountant, you probably have never heard of a “fraud triangle”. This week, Catherine and Donald take a concept from the high stakes world of corporate accounting, and make it about health and fitness. If you have the pressure, opportunity, and ability to rationalize, you can commit fraud when it comes to your health and fitness goals. It turns out that the person who gets cheated is yourself. Plus, Donald cooks up an analogy, Catherine flies 3000 miles to sweep, and Ben Affleck plays Donald’s father in the movie.
