The Israeli lunar lander Beresheet crashed on the moon's surface after a failure in its inertial measurement unit caused the engines to cut out. Despite the failure, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu remained positive about future attempts. The hosts question the media's use of the word "glitch" and mock the idea that Israel would have been the "first nation" on the moon, ignoring the Apollo missions.

Israel announced plans to land a probe on the moon in 2019, using a Falcon 9 rocket built by Elon Musk's SpaceX. The hosts express skepticism about the mission's success and mention that Musk has been "unmasked" as a top donor to a Republican PAC. They joke about the possibility of a "moon race" and the return of Saturn V technology.
