We're in Florida, and other places (Clare gets confused!) this time. The FBI are about to get their man, who has been committing crimes for years and years...when they make a small mistake that could have a huge impact!

This is the story of the McDonalds Monopoly Scandal, and we discuss who was behind it, and who really got harmed.

If you enjoy this episode of What's The Difference?, please, please, please subscribe, rate and review to help us get the podcast out there; it really is a small detail that makes a huge difference!

What’s The Difference? is co-hosted by Nathan Bent and Clare Paterson, two data geeks… sorry, enthusiasts, with a fascination for the small details in life that can make a big impact.

From true crime & scams, to science & technology, and everything in between.
