Panelist Guy Maroz recounted his unusual and overwhelming experience at the Likud party's election night headquarters, an event he attended for the first time in his life. Describing the atmosphere as "bizarre," Maroz shared his discomfort with the incessant playing of the party's anthem on an "endless loop." When the host and audience joined in singing "The Likud is in the heart," Maroz humorously exclaimed, "Okay, enough, you've already won, enough!"
The most memorable moment captured by fellow panelist Yotam Zimri and shown on the program involved a man blowing a large shofar directly into Maroz's ear. Maroz, visibly uncomfortable and covering his ears, later admitted, "It was right inside the ear, it wasn't easy," to the amusement of the studio audience. Maroz, who was wearing a red hat that read "Tie?!" during the discussion, also mentioned that he had recently engaged in other unfamiliar activities, such as putting on tefillin and a mezuzah, as part of his experiences on the show "The Patriots."
Maroz concluded his account by stating he didn't get home until around 5 a.m. and even forgot his computer in a taxi. He also joked about the post-election day interactions, quipping that neither "Bibi" nor "Eisenkot" were calling him.
