An example of media manipulation is demonstrated using a clip about the restoration of Apollo's Mission Control. By cutting the audio before the famous phrase "failure is not an option," the meaning of the segment is inverted to suggest the room represents American failure. This serves as a technical demonstration of how news organizations can misrepresent subjects through selective editing.

The reopening of the only gun shop in San Francisco sparked protests from local activists. One resident argued before the Board of Supervisors that the shop should be closed because 14% of the neighborhood—children—cannot enter the premises. The hosts mock this "vibrancy" argument, noting its potential application to bars and other age-restricted businesses.
