I feel like when I was a kid watching the Apollo missions, a massive crowd turned out, just like in the old days, to witness the first manned moon mission since 1972 at Cape Canaveral. One space fan, I believe, captured the true spirit of the moment. Why do you want to be here? Why do you love space? Why do you love being a part of history?
We're going back to the Moon, that's right. Yeah. You tell them, camera head kid. That says it all. Reminds me of that famous children's book, Goodnight, Motherf.
That was funny. That was pretty funny. But that kid did say that live on television. He literally did. What do you mean?
Here's the story. This is why it's so disingenuous. The unnecessary censorship. This is what he said, cut fifty seven. Why do you want to be here?
Why do you love Why do you love being a Part of history. We're going back to the freaking moon, that's why. Oh, okay.
So it went from parents are not proud of him to parents think what he said was funny anyway. Exactly. You watch Colbert, you think this kid's dropping F-bomb.
Well, you know what's funny is I listened to this on the five last night, and they didn't bleep it. But I was listening to it in headphones, and I thought he said the bad word.
So then when I just heard this bleep version, I was like, oh no, the five made a big mistake, but they didn't. Right.
So they so the Stephen Gobert can't even get that right. I know. This poor little kid looks like he's just dropping the F-bombs. I think it's, I love how excited he is about space, though. Right.
I mean, yeah, we are going back to their friends. Who knows if he's really excited about space or he just, I mean, it's just so much to be a breath of fresh air not to talk about Trump for one minute. I know, right? You can't obviously inject Trump into the story, though, because NASA is a government organization. I mean, this wouldn't be happening without him.
He's into space. Yeah, and into the fact that we need to beat China back to landing on the moon. Would you listen to the show yesterday? The Brian Killme show? No.
Which one? Your myriad of shows. Yes, I did listen to the show.
So you know this whole write-up Isaacson admitted, he said, there's a good chance that China will be on the movie with us before us. I know. I mean that that bothers me so much because I mean, so make it twenty twenty seven. Remember twenty twenty eight. Trump will be gone by then.
Yeah, I know.
Well, and that's the other thing that he said when people question if we went to the moon to the first place. You know, that's like a big narrative right now. The way that I think it was Isigman that described it too. He says we got like 600 pounds of rocks that only are they're unique to the moon on top of that. You know that?
Uh I did not know that. Oh yeah. We got if we did. Oh if we brought that back as proof. Oh, I see what you're saying.
Hey uh Eric, you you're into space. Can you go on YouTube and just look at the different launches and walks? And aren't some of them in color? I believe the last couple were. Yeah.
Yeah. I mean, so this is, it got so, we weren't even watching it. And I was. Six, whatever. But no one's watching it.
Because in the beginning it was like I I was too young, but it was such a big deal. And then by the time we're done, we're like, oh, there's it's up again. You know, Apollo 13, they made a movie about it. They had one thing go wrong. Like you're saying that we kind of took it for granted in that 50 years.
Well, and what I was what I want to say was that one of the reasons it's taken so long is because it is by the will of the president. And there are certain presidents who were into these missions and there are others who weren't. And then you start and stop, depending on who wins office. And now we have a current administration that's Space Force and beyond.
So we're going back. I think it's so cool. Yeah. I mean, the astronaut spoke last night. Here's Reed Wiseman from as he's the commander on our Artemis two forty four.
Well, we are still technically in Earth's orbit, although we did just do our translunar injection burn. And so we are definitely 100% on our way to the moon. The lunar gravity will take over in a couple of days here and start pulling us around the far side. At the end of our translunar injection here about an hour and a half ago, we just really looked at each other. And I know the United States has done this 1968 through 1972, but it's just, this is unbelievable that we can put our minds to something and pull it off.
This is an unbelievable technical accomplishment. And it's a better capsule. It's a better, you know, better technology, obviously. Yeah. And, you know, I mean, I just think that these astronauts are so brave because you think about a successful mission and what we all lived through.
Some of us did. Missions that weren't. And you always think about that when it's launching, like, dear Lord, please let this work. And then it did. But then, okay, so now they're going towards space.
And you mentioned this on Vox and Friends this morning that they're not. propelling forward. The force that they already have. You know, Newton's law of motion, uh moving objects continues to move, but they do have to navigate during certain times or else they will literally slam into the moon. Right.
Ahead of time, or just continue to fly into space in perpetuity. There's a movie about that. Right.
A couple of things. Um I think we ought to land there quicker. Number two is I think we all should start seeing footage from the sixties and seventies.
So we could stop dealing with these things with people who are very well educated who keep saying we've never been to the moon. Don't you think? Yeah, we do, because last week I was a little bit of a moon denier myself. And then now that I am all into this this week I've changed my mind.
So do you know the Challenger and Columbia? What do they have in common? They both exploded. Katie, my daughter, had no idea about the space shuttle. I go, what are you talking about?
So I had to show her how horrific that was in 86, and then back again. And 2003. Right.
Well, it was before she was born. Yeah. But you know, one was Reagan, had to explain it. The other one was Bush. We had to explain it.
A teacher was on board. And here's the reason why, Brian, people are now saying, Did we ever really do that? Because it has been so long. And so people think, well, why has it taken us so long to get back? If we could do that in the 60s, why is it so challenging right now?
So those are the questions that people have. But then there's a lot of things. And it takes an investment. What they really want to do, and I did that story about five years ago in NASA about what they were working on. And the one thing they want to do is like Musk wants to go to Mars.
So they go, SpaceX, they want to get started on the moon, but they're thinking Mars the whole time. They want NASA to do moon, and Musk wants to do Mars. But the main thing is, they don't want to have to depend on earth. They want to grow their own food. They want to be able to sustain their own energy.
Wow. I know. So this is their goal: not to worry, not to need Earth.
So here's Jacek Isaacson. He's Isaacman, the NASA administrator, CUT 43. We are starting to build a moon base. We are going to have uncrewed landings on a near-monthly cadence.
So, these are robotic landings starting in the beginning of 2027. This is how we're going to test out mobility, crewed uncrewed, power generation, surface comms, orbital comms. We're going to put up orbital observation satellites. We've even created a moon base website and a moon base social channel so people can log in, watch us building the base in near real time until we build up to maintaining that enduring presence on the moon. It's just a wild concept.
And then you do we start talking about like who colonizes the moon? Oh, yeah.
Well, China's going to try to claim it. I mean, they got to try to claim a YouTube channel. But what are the rules?
Well, actually, I was like, you can't claim the moon. And then I was like, well, America can. Right.
Yeah, I mean. I want to.
Well, we know no one's coming.
So we could do anything. Yeah. Golf or whatever.
So they already had one problem, bathroom problem. Yeah, they had a fan in the bathroom that wasn't working, and that became a story. But those are the things that engage people. You know, it's a headline that you click on. I certainly did.
So in the four-in-person crew, there's a woman and there's a black man.
So I thought this question was so great. And the way Victor Glover answered that he's black, Cup 46. It is a big question, and I want to highlight, I guess, maybe one facet of this is the tension, I call it. I live in this, you know, this dichotomy between happiness that a young woman can look at Christina and just physicalize her passion or her interests, or even if it's not something she wants to do, she can just be like, girl power, and that's awesome. And that young brown boys and girls can look at me and go, hey, he looks like me and he's doing what?
And that's great. I love that. But I also hope we are pushing the other direction that one day we don't have to talk about these first, that one day this is just, and I listen to this, that this is the human history. It's about human history. It's the story of humanity, not black history, not women's history, but that it becomes human history.
That's the most well-rounded answer I've ever heard. It's true. There is a level of the first this, the first that.
Okay, cool. But it's really about people. Yeah. There is so much more that unites us than separates us. We don't always have to focus on the 2020.
You said that in 2020, it must be some NAGA lunatic who doesn't understand that they're really a minority. They've been brainwashed. For example, I mean, this is the way it should be. Like, you ever have somebody from a small town makes it to the NFL or Major League Baseball, they go, no one from this town ever made it before.
Okay. Noted? But then, once you start playing, you're no longer the small town guy. Yeah. You're just or woman playing basketball at UConn who never had a basketball player recruited from my town.
Yeah, that's noted. But then, when it comes to playing, you just play. Good player. And then if you do a documentary, bring it up. But it shouldn't, your origin story shouldn't be out there.
It should be, what are you doing now? It's so cool. And I mean, that's what Martin Luther King Jr. was talking about the entire time. And I loved that response.
And beyond that, all of these astronauts have been asked about the achievements that they've, you know, they're history-making people. They're going to go down to history. And their answers are all very selfless in that, and I really do believe that they think this, that they're just doing this and this is their moment, but they're doing it for the next astronauts to go even further than them. It really feels like a whole team effort. They're a family.
If you took an astronaut, they all feel a part of the same group. But let me who don't even know each other. But a couple of things. I also think that one thing that happened is when we beat the Russians. That's part of the reason why we stopped Being obsessed with it.
Because we did it. Because we want. And maybe that, I'm just thinking now, maybe that's why they don't want to get caught up in a China race. It's not that they don't think we can win, but they're worried about when we win. Are you going to lose interest?
And I just think there's going to be sustained interest this time that's going to be yeah, and you know what? Speaking of interest, I know that you feel this way about sports and you know, like the Olympics and the World Cup, yeah, and how important it is for young people to see that and get inspired. And, you know, he played the clip of the little kid before who didn't curse. But I love that. And that is what.
This mission did for a lot of kids. I, for the first time, was able to watch this with my son, who's becoming old enough to somewhat conceptualize what's going on. He was so into it. He pretended to be a rocket ship afterwards. He was like, I love that rocket ship.
You know, it's like, he won't remember, but it was an exciting moment for him. And I think it, you know, will. You know, get the wheels turning a little bit. The next time there's a blast off, lift off, he's gonna say, Watch. I wanna watch.
Yeah, he'll have something to pull from. Yeah. And that's nothing but positive. Right.
And do you know if you're having a boy or girl? This time around, I'm having another boy. You have another boy? Have you picked out a name? No, Brian, help me.
Oh my gosh. Can your callers call in with name suggestions? Name suggestions. I have no idea. I like.
What is your husband playing a role in this? Yeah, well, like 20%. 80-20, okay.
So he does have a sex. And he knows that. There's this country song. It's like, you name the babies, I name the dogs. Blake Shelton sang that.
I feel like if you're physically carrying the baby, you have like a little bit more. I think you should. But we both have veto power. Like, he's vetoed some names.
Well, Brock's a good name. Thank you. Yeah, I always remember that you said that. And I know that's a good idea. My dad said that's a good name.
I got it.
Well, so here's the thing. I feel like people, maybe it's because I call him by his name and not my son, but I feel like it's a little bit memorable. I don't know. But I think a lot of people do know his name. And my husband wants this baby to be named Jack, which is a name that I love, but it's more common, although I do like it.
So that's the pickle that I'm in. Right.
I want to name the cash. Should I say it? Should I say what I want to name the baby?
Okay. Right now, who's winning? What name is winning? My husband, because I don't know if I'm 100%. I want to name the baby Stone.
Oh, I love that. You do? Don't don't you love that? Do you like that?
Okay. What do you think? A lot. I mean, I'm getting more negative feedback than positive, and I can be easily swayed by other people's opinions on names. No, I think it's really good.
You know, everyone's going to say Stone Phillips of 2020. I don't know who that is. Wow. Do you guys know who Stone Phillips is? You guys do, right?
Of of the show 2020. Yeah. Oh, okay, yeah, I've heard of him before. Yeah. So that's the only time I ever heard the word stone.
So now we're thinking Jack Stone, Stone is a middle name, but nobody knows your middle name. You could use it. Yeah, I'm just saying, I don't know. Yeah, I know.
I know. I don't know. Yeah. All right. I think of that a lot.
Do you like the name Bear? Isn't did you a dog? Yeah. See, I like the name bear for a boy, too, but my husband's like. That our child, you're not giving birth to a dog.
But Bear Grylls, that's got to be a nickname. That's got to be a nickname. That can't be his real name. I think it's his middle name, actually. I Googled it.
Wow. You did look it up. All right. So, listen, if you could name Carly's kid. Yeah, name Carly's kid.
Oh. How much time do we have? Can we do a telethon? I'll pay you. Name my kid.
All right. How much time do we have? Oh, till July. Till July 25th. Oh, we got time.

Asked for help from the Brian Kilmade radio show, and people are jumping on the lines. Carly, naming your second baby, the first one, his great kid, full of energy, future quarterback in my view, or middle linebacker, Brock. Yes. I love the name. Thank you so much, and thank you to everybody who just is who's into the Name That Baby game.
Okay, here is Wally. In St. Pete Beach, Florida. Wally. Give Carly an idea.
Carly, I I've worked on this for a while. You name the baby on the birth certificate TBD. And then for the fifth birthday, let the boy or the girl Choose the name they want. Oh, you call the kid, the young boy, TBD for five years? Mm-hmm.
Well, that's just for the birth certificate 'cause they're gonna want something.
So to be determined. That is hilarious.
Well, it's five years old. What if he's like, I want to be named Buzz Lightyear? I know. That's true. Carly creative, thinking outside the box.
I love it. 10 out of 10. Rudy in Topeka, Kansas. Rudy, what should Carly name her baby? Yeah.
Binnett. B-N-N-N-E-T-T. Our name, our boy's name is Bennett, and we love it. Do you use the full name or you go Ben? No, we just go Bennett.
Bennett is on my short list. I'll tell you that right now.
So we are on the same page, my friend. Cool. Thank you. That is awesome. How about Tony in Florida?
Hey, Tony. Hey, good morning. Carly, I think you should try doing something that we've done with my family. It's a real easy formula. If it's a boy, the first name is named after the somebody in the father's family.
The middle name is taken by someone in the mother's family, and vice versa for a girl. If it's a girl, then the first name comes from somebody on the mother's family, and the middle name comes from somebody on the father's family, and this keeps your family heritage going.
Okay, so if you do this, could you give me a name?
Okay, so it would be Leo, because that's a big family name for my husband's family. And then my side of the family, my dad's name is Edward.
So it would be Leo Edward if we followed that formula. Wow. And lastly, thanks so much for the call. Thank you. That was great.
We were talking about the African-American astronaut and how he said, I just don't want it to be that's the most important thing. Eric in North Carolina. Eric, what's your perspective? Hey, how you doing? I'm Eva, black male who served in the Navy for twenty years and um you know a a golfer you know, a a sports enthusiast, you know, we naturally and organically Got rid of the term black quarterback because that was a thing.
We naturally and organically got rid of the term black golfer. And we naturally and organically got rid of Black Navy SEAL and other Special Forces titles. And I believe that they will come as we continue to excel as people. But as a black male, yes, I do want to represent. Gotcha.
I love that. Thanks so much for the call. Yeah, and that's what the astronaut was saying. I love that. Carly, best of luck.
We gave you some ideas. I love it. Buzz Light Year. Got some ideas. Number one.
