Channel 14 presenter Yinon Magal confirmed on Wednesday that his radio show with Ben Caspit on 103fm will conclude after the upcoming elections, stating their paths are diverging. Magal announced decisively, "I have decided that after the elections, the program is ending, with God's help." He explained his reasoning, citing a feeling that the "violent, crude, vulgar talk and curses" were drawing him into a negative dynamic he no longer wanted. Magal felt Caspit was pulling him into this, a situation he wished to avoid. During their show on Monday, Magal had suggested they had "exhausted the subject" and that while no one would cut ties before the elections, he no longer felt able to broadcast with someone like Caspit. Caspit agreed, noting it aligned with a previous discussion with the station manager about reassessing their partnership after the elections. Magal concluded, "I think we have reached our end," to which Caspit replied, "Yes, it's a shame we reached our end so late."
