Unashamed with the Robertson Family
Unashamed with the Robertson Family

The Robertsons are unashamed of their Christian faith and want to share the Gospel with everyone, from new believers to longtime followers of Jesus. Phil, Al, Jase, Zach, and their special guests go beyond the four walls of the church to share God's Word and study the Bible with you. Pour a glass of tea, and experience fun and inspiring stories of faith and family, straight from West Monroe, Louisiana.

Jase, Al, and Zach are joined by Lisa for a powerful conversation about how abuse, lies, and pain shape every family, even the Robertsons, and how truth can lead to real healing. Reflecting on the deeply personal story behind their new film, Al and Lisa’s daughter, Alex, offers a unique perspective on hearing her parents’ story as an adult. They explore how trauma impacts identity, why so many people carry shame in silence, and how opening up in the right community can break its hold.  In this episode: Revelation 12, verse 11; Genesis 2, verse 10; 1 John 5, verse 18; Hebrews 10; Matthew 18 “Unashamed” Episode 1325 is sponsored by: https://rocketmoney.com/unashamed — Join Rocket Money and let them help you reach your financial goals faster.  https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian take a deeper look at key figures in America’s founding years, like Ben Franklin, William Penn, and Thomas Jefferson. The guys highlight how early America was shaped not just by shared beliefs, but by a surprising diversity of cultures, languages, and perspectives. They reflect on whether a society can maintain those values without a foundation in God, and what America’s early struggles reveal about the challenges we’re still facing today.

Jase, Al, and Zach tackle the growing tension around global conflict by walking through current events and the questions many are asking about Israel, Iran, and biblical prophecy. The guys draw an important distinction between letting faith inform your worldview and using ancient scripture to justify modern warfare without proper context. They explore what the Bible actually says about God’s promises, the identity of Israel, and how those promises are fulfilled. The guys remind listeners that no political leader is the Messiah and that the real power of God is found in the Gospel.  In this episode: Deuteronomy 6, verse 4; Genesis 25, verse 23; Matthew 24, verses 6–7; Luke 23, verse 43; John 21, verse 12; Romans 1, verses 1–5; Romans 9, verses 1–8; Romans 9, verses 30–33; Romans 11, verses 25–29; Romans 15, verses 4–12; 1 Corinthians 3, verses 16–17; 1 Corinthians 15, verses 35–44; 2 Corinthians 1, verse 20; Hebrews 7, verses 11–12 “Unashamed” Episode 1323 is sponsored by: Get 15% off OneSkin with the code UNASHAMED at https://www.oneskin.co/unashamed #oneskinpod https://chministries.org/unashamed — See why Christians are ditching health insurance for good.

Jase taps into his inner Phil during a clash over grown men like Zach using Gen Z slang. The guys wrestle with the idea that while culture constantly redefines language and meaning, truth itself doesn’t change. Using vivid examples like adoption, family bonds, and even “faith tourism,” they challenge listeners to move beyond surface-level belief and into a daily, active walk with God that produces real transformation. In this episode: Genesis 3, verses 1–5; Psalm 139, verses 23–24; John 10, verses 27–28; John 15, verse 4; Romans 8, verses 14–26; 1 Corinthians 6, verse 19; 2 Corinthians 5, verses 18–19; Ephesians 3, verse 16; Hebrews 4, verses 14–16; Hebrews 10, verses 19–22; James 4, verse 8; 1 John 1, verse 7; 1 John 4, verse 17; 1 John 5, verses 14–15 “Unashamed” Episode 1322 is sponsored by: https://ruffgreens.com — Get a FREE Jumpstart Trial Bag for your dog today when you use promo code Unashamed!

Jase is left on the hook by Uncle Si for a birthday request that doesn’t come cheap, and Zach’s upchuck reflex is nearly activated again by a bathroom disaster in the Duck Commander offices. But the conversation turns deeper as the guys break down what happens when people try to live disconnected from their Creator, such as the biosphere experiment in Arizona. They challenge the common belief that faith is just about getting to heaven, making the case that we’re called to something much bigger: living as the place where God dwells, growing into spiritual maturity. In this episode: Genesis 2, verse 15; Genesis 4, verse 1; Hebrews 5, verses 11–14; Hebrews 6, verses 1–3; Hebrews 10, verses 19–22; 1 Corinthians 3, verses 16–17; 1 Corinthians 6, verses 18–20; 2 Corinthians 6, verses 14–16; 1 Peter 2, verse 9; Revelation 1, verses 5–6; Revelation 5, verse 10; Zechariah 6, verse 12; 1 John 1, verses 3–4; 1 John 3, verse 24 “Unashamed” Episode 1321 is sponsored by: https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Jase, Al, Zach, and Jep open up about the reality of facing sudden health scares, from Jep’s life-threatening seizure and coma to Jase’s unexplained months-long illness and Al’s recent trial with heart issues, the guys reflect on moments when life felt fragile and uncertain. Zach reflects on his wife Jill’s frightening medical crises after giving birth. Through those experiences, they share what carried them through, why fear is a natural response, and how faith reframes even the hardest situations. They discuss what it really means to be “whole” in Christ and turn to legacy, family, and moments of weakness that can lead to deeper purpose and stronger faith.

Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian step into the origins of America in celebration of the approaching 250th anniversary. The guys explore the courage, faith, and conviction that drove a small group of people to leave everything behind in search of religious freedom. As they walk through the Pilgrims’ journey, the harsh realities of the Mayflower, and the formation of America’s first self-governance, they reflect on overlooked stories of faith, bravery and how the American spirit was forged through both belief and struggle.

Jase, Al, Zach, and Missy reflect on a season of new beginnings, from a triple graduation celebration to the arrival of baby George. A jaw-dropping Hurricane Helene survival story emerges during a mass baptism, while Jase and Zach recount moments when powerful displays of faith were unexpectedly interrupted by law enforcement. Missy also shares an emotional update on her mentoring weekend for young women, where several made life-changing decisions to follow Jesus.

Jase, Al, and Zach wrestle with a deceptively simple question: what does it actually mean to know God? They explore the role of the Holy Spirit, the struggle with rejection and belonging, and how even cutting-edge artificial intelligence is exposing the limits of human knowledge and what we can truly know.  In this episode: Romans 9, verses 6–8; Galatians 3, verses 26–28; Galatians 4, verses 1–7; Galatians 5, verses 2–6; Galatians 5, verses 13–26; Galatians 6, verses 14–15; Ephesians 2, verses 14–22; Ephesians 3, verse 6; 1 John 2, verse 1; 1 John 2, verse 28; 1 John 3, verses 1–2; 1 John 3, verse 14; 1 John 3, verse 20; 1 John 5, verses 13–20 “Unashamed” Episode 1317 is sponsored by: Exclusive $25-off Carver Mat at https://on.auraframes.com/UNASHAMED.

Hot takes are everywhere, and in a culture driven by TikTok clips and instant opinions, it’s getting harder to tell the difference between confident voices and actual truth. Jase, Al, and Zach push back on the growing trend of soundbite theology, where complex biblical ideas are reduced to quick, oversimplified answers that often miss the bigger picture. Using current debates around Israel and broader theological disagreements, the guys highlight how easily people can present personal interpretations as absolute biblical truth. In this episode: 1 John 5, verse 13; 1 John 5, verse 20; Romans 11, verse 26; John 14, verse 6; Galatians 3, verse 28; Hebrews 12, verses 1–2; Hebrews 12, verses 22–24; Hebrews 3, verse 1; 1 Peter 2, verse 9; Revelation 1, verse 6; Revelation 5, verse 10; Exodus 19, verse 6; Romans 1, verses 16–17 “Unashamed” Episode 1316 is sponsored by: https://www.covesmart.com/unashamed — Use code UNASHAMED at checkout for up to 70% off your first order! https://unashamedgold.com — Get a free 2026 Gold & Silver Guide and a no obligation consultation!  https://texassuperfood.com — Get 35% off your first order when you use code Unashamed.

Jase, Al, and Zach reflect on the childhood nostalgia and wonder that space exploration inspires, and Al contrasts humanity’s growing knowledge with its shrinking sense of awe. The guys jump into a discussion about Jesus’ voluntary sacrifice and what it really means to follow God’s commands—not as burdens, but as invitations into life. Jase offers a direct challenge to how most people think about faith: testimony isn’t about your story, your turnaround, or your effort, it’s about Jesus.  In this episode: John 10, verses 14–18; 1 John 5, verses 6–11; Romans 6, verses 1–11; Romans 8, verses 1–39; Ephesians 5, verse 1; Ephesians 5, verse 21; 2 Timothy 4, verses 7–8; Revelation 5, verses 8–14 “Unashamed” Episode 1315 is sponsored by: https://chministries.org/unashamed — See why Christians are ditching health insurance for good.

Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian kick off with a generational clash as Gen Z slang completely derails a conversation. The guys dive into early Christianity’s clash with the Roman Empire, where believers faced intense persecution and were often used as scapegoats during times of cultural and political chaos. They highlight how Christianity challenged broken systems, elevated the value of women in a degrading culture, and continues to call believers to live out their faith boldly wherever they are. In this episode: Luke 2, verses 1–7; John 18, verse 36; Acts 2, verses 1–47 Today’s conversation is about Lesson 7 of Ancient Christianity taught by visiting Hillsdale Professor of History Kenneth Calvert. Take the course with us at no cost to you! Sign up at http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/. More about Ancient Christianity: Christ entered the world during the reign of Caesar Augustus. The tensions between Christianity and the Roman Empire shaped the daily practice of the Christian faith and led many Romans to distrust and persecute the early Christians. But Christianity also benefitted from the Roman world. And when Rome collapsed in the West, Christianity provided the hope for preserving civilization. In this free, eleven-lecture course, Professor Kenneth Calvert will explore: How the Jewish, Greek, and Roman cultures all contributed to preparing the world to hear the Gospel. Why many Romans distrusted and persecuted the early Christians. The inspiring stories of Christ, His apostles, and faithful ones throughout the first four centuries of Christianity. The arguments of key early Christian apologists—Ignatius, Irenaeus, Justin, Athanasius, and more—who defended and defined the Christian faith amidst the animosity of the Roman world. The conversion of Constantine and how he brought stability to Rome, and how the rivalry between his sons almost returned Rome to paganism. How Augustine’s writings helped preserve the message of Christianity during the collapse of the Roman Empire in the West. You will discover the uncertainties, trials, and triumphs of the earliest Christians as they confronted controversies within the faith and persecutions from outside it. Join us today to discover the improbable and miraculous story of Christianity.

Jase turns a frustrating local government failure into a hands-on mission, sparking a neighborhood lesson on what it really means to love your neighbor. Zach brings in a wild real-life dilemma with black bears overrunning his neighborhood, forcing the guys to wrestle with authority, personal rights, and the limits of control. The guys pivot into a powerful breakdown of the tension between obeying God’s commands and truly loving Him; where obedience flows naturally—not out of pressure, but out of transformation.  In this episode: 1 John 5, verses 2–5; Matthew 5, verse 17; Romans 7, verses 7–25; Romans 8, verses 5–9; Romans 12, verses 1–2; John 10; Hebrews 5; Genesis 2–3; Galatians 5, verses 22–23 “Unashamed” Episode 1313 is sponsored by: https://trustandwill.com/unashamed — Get 20% off and protect your legacy today! https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Our culture’s growing addiction to fear comes into focus through a surprisingly relatable moment—one that exposes how far we’ll go to avoid discomfort and uncertainty. Jase, Al, and Zach connect it to a much bigger issue: the way constant headlines and global tension keep people stuck in a cycle of anxiety and overreaction. The guys push back on that instinct by revisiting what Jesus actually said about wars and unrest, highlighting a message that’s often misunderstood and misapplied. They point to a deeper perspective rooted in faith, clarity, and trust in God’s bigger plan. The conversation ultimately reframes how believers should respond to fear—not by numbing it or giving in to it, but by stepping out of the cycle entirely and living with confidence grounded in truth.

Jase, Al, and Zach dive into the growing buzz around end-times prophecy and rising global tension, making the case that what Jesus finished on the cross reshapes how Christians should see it all. The guys explore why so many people still misunderstand the role of the temple and what it means to live under a new covenant. A chaotic mix of travel mishaps, MRIs, and a golf-game breakthrough turns into a surprisingly sharp lesson about changing your approach when something isn’t working.

In a culture that rewards staying quiet about religious beliefs, Jase, Al, and Zach challenge whether that kind of faith actually works. The guys reflect on Phil’s turning point after his baptism, when he chose to go public with his belief in Jesus—a decision that shaped the rest of the whole family’s lives. Jase digs deeper into what “confidence before God” means and explores the instructions the Bible leaves us about how to stand before the Lord without shame.

Willie Robertson’s lifelong love of burning things is back on full display, and it all traces back to Phil’s unique outlook on work and life. Al, Zach, Christian, and John Luke shift to the rise and fall of the Roman Empire and why Jesus entered history at just the right moment to challenge its power. The guys reframe Jesus’ statement about the “gates of hell,” showing how God’s kingdom advances rather than retreats, even in the face of intense persecution. Zach makes a confession that illustrates the envious side of human nature. In this episode: Matthew 16, verses 13–20; Matthew 11, verses 7–15; Hebrews 11, verses 13–16; James 3, verse 16 Today’s conversation is about Lesson 6 of Ancient Christianity taught by visiting Hillsdale Professor of History Kenneth Calvert. Take the course with us at no cost to you! Sign up at http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/. More about Ancient Christianity: Christ entered the world during the reign of Caesar Augustus. The tensions between Christianity and the Roman Empire shaped the daily practice of the Christian faith and led many Romans to distrust and persecute the early Christians. But Christianity also benefitted from the Roman world. And when Rome collapsed in the West, Christianity provided the hope for preserving civilization. In this free, eleven-lecture course, Professor Kenneth Calvert will explore: How the Jewish, Greek, and Roman cultures all contributed to preparing the world to hear the Gospel. Why many Romans distrusted and persecuted the early Christians. The inspiring stories of Christ, His apostles, and faithful ones throughout the first four centuries of Christianity. The arguments of key early Christian apologists—Ignatius, Irenaeus, Justin, Athanasius, and more—who defended and defined the Christian faith amidst the animosity of the Roman world. The conversion of Constantine and how he brought stability to Rome, and how the rivalry between his sons almost returned Rome to paganism. How Augustine’s writings helped preserve the message of Christianity during the collapse of the Roman Empire in the West. You will discover the uncertainties, trials, and triumphs of the earliest Christians as they confronted controversies within the faith and persecutions from outside it. Join us today to discover the improbable and miraculous story of Christianity.

Jase celebrates the arrival of his newest grandson and the surprisingly old-school name that immediately sparked interest. Jase relates a powerful story of an Iranian family who didn’t believe in Jesus until a miraculous occurrence led them to faith they couldn’t deny. Al and Zach reflect on how moments like these reveal the real, lived-out power of the Gospel. The guys start a thought-provoking discussion on what the King James Version may have gotten incorrect and why it matters today.

Al, Jase, and Zach circle back to a powerful conversation about the subtle ways the enemy works to destroy our families. A deep dive into the origin of sin turns into a gut check on modern life, especially how constant busyness can quietly pull people away from God without them even realizing it. Zach connects the fear of death and the tendency to hide from judgment as part of a bigger spiritual battle most people underestimate. But Jesus points to a better way: real rest, real life, and a relationship with God that replaces fear with confidence and peace.  In this episode: 1 John 5, verse 19; Hebrews 4, verses 11–13; Revelation 1, verses 12–18; Hebrews 2, verses 14–15; Revelation 12, verses 9–11; Revelation 14, verses 6–13; 1 John 4, verses 13–21; John 6; John 14 “Unashamed” Episode 1307 is sponsored by: https://preborn.com/unashamed — Visit the PreBorn! website or dial #250 and use keyword BABY to donate today. https://texassuperfood.com — Get 35% off your first order when you use code Unashamed. https://cozyearth.com/unashamed — Get up to 20% off when you use our link and code UNASHAMED! http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Check out At Home with Phil Robertson, nearly 800 episodes of Phil's unfiltered wisdom, humor, and biblical truth, available for free for the first time!

Al, Jase, and Zach wrestle with a tension a lot of Christians feel today: how to live with conviction without completely withdrawing from the world. The guys ponder where to draw the line and whether avoiding everything you disagree with actually misses the point. The discussion shifts into a deeper look at what Jesus meant by life, death, and eternal life, and how many of us may have misunderstood it all along.

Jase, Al, and Zach highlight Granny Robertson’s timeless wisdom and the responsibility parents carry to model discipline, truth, and real love in their homes. The guys spark a conversation about what Jesus may have actually looked like, and challenge common misconceptions about heaven, death, and what it means to be alive in Christ right now. Jase looks deeper into how modern culture has watered down the meaning of “miracles,” contrasting everyday blessings with the truly supernatural events seen in Scripture.  In this episode: Romans 8, verses 19, 23, 25; Philippians 3, verse 20; Hebrews 9, verses 27–28; 1 John 3, verse 2; John 11, verses 3–44; 1 John 4, verses 10–21; 1 Corinthians 13, verses 1–13 “Unashamed” Episode 1305 is sponsored by: https://www.quo.com/unashamed — Try QUO for free PLUS get 20% off your first 6 months! https://www.covesmart.com/unashamed/ — Use code UNASHAMED at checkout for up to 70% off your first order! https://chministries.org/unashamed — See why Christians are ditching health insurance for good.

John Luke, Christian, and Zach witness Al’s unexpected confession about a “girly” habit that he swears by. John Luke offers his perspective on why God doesn’t reveal Himself in obvious, overwhelming ways, and why Jesus followed that same pattern during His life on earth. The guys wrestle with modern skepticism, pointing out that many people reject God for not acting the way they expect. They dig into early church history, exposing how ancient false teachings about Jesus’ humanity and divinity are still resurfacing today in new forms.  In this episode: 1 John 4, verses 1–3; 2 John, verse 7; 1 Corinthians 15, verses 1–8; John 1, verses 1–14; 1 Timothy 3, verse 16; 1 Corinthians 6, verse 19; Romans 5, verses 12–21 Today’s conversation is about Lesson 5 of Ancient Christianity taught by visiting Hillsdale Professor of History Kenneth Calvert.

Jase highlights a growing cultural crisis surrounding children in need of stable homes after being especially moved by the women in Missy’s mentorship group who are stepping up to the challenge. Al challenges the idea of treating Christianity like a checklist and instead points to a relationship with Christ as the foundation for a transformed life.

Jase, Al, and Zach take a deeper look at the story of Noah’s flood, revealing a darker and more complex backdrop than the version most of us grew up with. The guys explore the unnatural evil plaguing the world before the flood and why it led to such a dramatic reset. They shift to the resurrection of Jesus and why it’s the moment that makes the entire story of Scripture come into focus. Jase highlights an often-overlooked detail that points to a physical, restored future that changes everything about eternity.

Christian sparks a little "beach envy" by checking in from Florida while John Luke is stuck with the oily pond next door, and the guys get a lighthearted update on life with newborn twins. Zach and Al help trace how Jesus entered a world driven by power, fear, and control. With Rome, religious leaders, and the crowd all fighting to protect their influence, the same forces driving their decisions still show up today, pointing to a bigger story where surrender—not control—defines true power. In this episode: Matthew 3, verses 13–17; Matthew 4; Mark 9; John 1, verse 29; Psalm 139; Psalm 51; Hosea 11, verse 1; John 11; Acts 6; John 18; 1 Corinthians 15 Today’s conversation is about Lessons 4 of Ancient Christianity taught by visiting Hillsdale Professor of History Kenneth Calvert.

Jase, Al, and Zach on the growing cultural obsession with self-affirmation, “manifesting,” and the idea that truth comes from within, warning how these popular beliefs subtly replace God with self. They’re joined by author and Christian apologist Melissa Doherty, who shares her journey out of the New Thought movement and explains how feel-good spirituality can distort the Gospel while still sounding Christian. The guys relive their chaotic crawfish business that ended in blood poisoning and helped redirect their lives. They land on a powerful contrast between self-made truth and the light of Jesus, challenging listeners to consider whether they’re drawn to the light—or avoiding it.

Jase, Al, and Zach kick things off with a nostalgic dive into classic rock, using songs from Foreigner, Sweet, and AC/DC to highlight how culture has long wrestled with defining love. The guys open the door to a deeper look at how modern views on love, sexuality, and identity have drifted from their original intent. Zach contrasts cultural messaging with a life-giving model of love rooted in sacrifice, purpose, and connection. They offer a simple but powerful filter for life: whether our choices lead to fullness and life or isolation and destruction.

Jase, Al, and Zach wrestle with what it means to live unoffendable in a culture fueled by outrage, echoing Phil’s reminder that a life rooted in Christ can’t be canceled by the world. Al lightens things up with a quirky breakdown of the Robertson family archetypes. They unpack Jesus’ words in Mark 12 about being “close to the kingdom,” challenging the difference between simply believing the right things about God and fully surrendering to him.  In this episode: Mark 12, verses 28–34; Colossians 2, verse 14; 1 John 4, verses 7–8; Daniel 7, verses 13–14; Matthew 26, verses 62–64; Galatians 2, verse 20; Ephesians 5, verses 1–2; Genesis 22, verse 2 “Unashamed” Episode 1296 is sponsored by: https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Jase, Zach, and Al challenge the modern idea of love and romance, pointing out how shallow, consumptive, and ultimately unsatisfying it’s become. Zach confesses his covetous heart with a funny story about Willie’s fancy new gadget that turns into a bigger realization about how easily our desires are shaped by algorithms and constant scrolling. Jase contrasts that with Phil’s example of a life lived free from the noise and untouched by the pressures of modern culture. It all leads to a bigger question: if everything around us is shaping what we want and believe, who—or what—is really leading us?

John Luke and Zach respond to sharp criticism, pushing back on a mindset that shuts down honest questions instead of engaging them. Al walks through the historical events that set the stage for Christianity’s explosion onto the world scene, including Nero’s brutal persecution of Jesus’ followers.

Jase spots a bug crawling in a stranger’s hair and steps in to remove it himself, triggering a mix of relief, shock, and secondhand embarrassment. Al and Zach join Jase’s attempt to detect a subtle message from a Pink Floyd hit about who—or what—is really influencing us. The guys lay out a clear, practical litmus test for recognizing false prophets, especially when faith starts to look more like a business than truth. They confront the real damage that can be done when spiritual voices miss the moment people need them most, and how to hold onto what’s real when everything else feels twisted.

Phil’s bold line resurfaces as the guys reflect on his lasting impact and what it means to carry his legacy into a new era without him. As the Robertson family grows and roles begin to shift, they wrestle with what it looks like for men to lead well and for older generations to train the next. Jase pushes back on a phone-obsessed culture that avoids hardship, arguing that real growth still comes the hard way. The guys investigate testing truth by its fruit, why real faith can’t be faked, and how following Jesus always leaves its mark.

Phil Robertson had a surprising way of settling arguments with his boys when they got into trouble, and the guys dig into a bigger conversation about why so many men today struggle to lead their families. Turning to Genesis, the guys examine the roles given to men and women—roles humanity has wrestled with since the beginning and that modern culture only seems to complicate further. Zach helps explain how believers can test the spirits and recognize truth through Scripture and the fruit of the Spirit. In this episode: 1 Thessalonians 5, verse 4; 1 John 3, verse 13; Revelation 3; Genesis 2, verses 15–17; 1 John 3, verse 18; Colossians 1; Matthew 18; 1 John 3, verses 19–21; 1 John 4, verses 1–6; 1 John 5, verse 9; Galatians 5, verses 19–24 “Unashamed” Episode 1291 is sponsored by: https://fastgrowingtrees.com — Get 20% your first purchase when using the code UNASHAMED at checkout. https://timtebow.com/tree-unashamed/ — Get your copy of If the Tree Could Speak by Tim Tebow on Amazon today! https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Korie reflects on the joy of a growing Robertson family and what this new season of life with Willie looks like as grandkids, changing roles, and everyday sacrifices reshape their perspective on love. Jase recounts his embarrassing loss in a showdown with a bear on Willie’s putting green and the real story behind the infamous HOA chicken dispute that made its way into a “Duck Dynasty” episode. Korie shares about the emotional tribute to Phil in “Duck Dynasty: The Revival” and the powerful legacy he left behind. The guys, Korie, and Jill wrestle with what true greatness really means and why Jesus flipped the world’s definition of it upside down through love, sacrifice, and service. In this episode: 1 John 3, verse 16; 1 John 3, verses 19–20; 1 John 4, verse 4; 1 John 5, verse 9; Matthew 16, verses 13–23; Matthew 18, verses 1–4; John 3, verse 16 “Unashamed” Episode 1290 is sponsored by: Text UNASHAMED to 64000 and get a FREE pocket pivot & 10-pattern sprayer with the purchase of ANY size Copper Head hose! https://preborn.com/unashamed — Visit the PreBorn! website or dial #250 and use keyword BABY to donate today. http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Check out At Home with Phil Robertson, nearly 800 episodes of Phil's unfiltered wisdom, humor, and biblical truth, available for free for the first time!

John Luke celebrates the arrival of his twin daughters, instantly becoming a father of five and giving the guys plenty to talk about when it comes to the miracle and chaos of childbirth. John Luke, Christian, Zach, and Al swap stories about witnessing labor for the first time and reflect on how the arrival of new life can feel both overwhelming and deeply spiritual. That leads into a bigger discussion about why Christianity makes such a bold claim: that the Creator of the universe chose to enter the world the same way every human does, through birth. The guys connect that moment to how the humble birth of Jesus reshaped human history and still anchors the story we’re all living in today. In this episode: John 1, verses 1–4; John 1, verse 14; Genesis 1, verse 1; Genesis 3, verse 15; Acts 17, verses 22–31 Today’s conversation is about Lessons 1 & 2 of Ancient Christianity taught by visiting Hillsdale Professor of History Kenneth Calvert. Take the course with us at no cost to you!

Uncle Si gets a surprise emotional reunion with Miss Kay after not seeing each other in a long time, and it’s as precious as you’d expect. Zach sends his better half, Jill, as his stand-in, and she gives the lowdown on Zach’s delicate temperament, touring music with her kids, and the challenges of parenting teens. Jase and Si look back on the tough spot they were in while Phil and Al were running hard during their prodigal years. The guys and Jill reflect on how the Robertson family has seen firsthand that God is greater than our sins and shame.

Zach tears up watching his kids stop a country crowd cold with a 200-year-old hymn, turning a Larry Fleet concert into an unexpected worship service. The guys wrestle with the healing of the man at the Pool of Bethesda, confronting the uncomfortable truth that some people would rather stay sick than be healed. Jase shares a longevity tip that traveled from Clint Eastwood to Morgan Freeman to his ears, and Willie Robertson crashes the recording mid-Bible study with his entourage in tow.

Jase, Missy, Al, and Lisa offer solutions to what they believe young men and women are missing in their lives today. Along the way they reveal their own shame, shortcomings and how mentorship and grace from God have changed them from the inside out. Jase jokes that he has spent his life researching whether marital relations will be part of heaven, but agrees that whatever God’s plan for eternity is, it’ll be better than we can imagine.

Missy discovers a rare family photo of Phil Robertson wearing a suit that was taken during one of the most difficult seasons in Robertson family history. Al and Lisa open up about the betrayal that nearly destroyed their marriage and the painful road to repentance, forgiveness, and rebuilding trust. The guys, Missy, and Lisa reflect on how God can restore even the most broken relationships when people surrender and choose faith over bitterness. They also share lessons on mentorship, marriage, and the pursuit of godly character drawn from Proverbs and Job 31.

Phil kicks things off with a question: When was the last time you heard the word sin in our courts, schools, governments, or Hollywood? This leads Phil, Jase, and Zach into a candid discussion of counseling, psychiatry, and the relationship between spirituality, sin, behavioral problems, brokenness, emptiness, mental illness, and the human dilemma.

Jase, Al, and Zach reflect on how their unique experiences around success have given them a front-row seat to the dark side of it—the jealousy and rivalry that often go unspoken but have been damaging families since the beginning of time. Using the story of Cain and Abel, the guys explore how envy can quietly grow into bitterness, division, and even hatred. The conversation highlights the powerful contrast between Abel’s blood demanding justice and the blood of Jesus offering mercy. In this episode: Genesis 4, verses 1–12; Exodus 32, verses 1–35; Matthew 23, verses 33–36; Hebrews 11, verse 4; Hebrews 12, verse 24; 1 John 3, verses 11–18; James 3, verses 13–16; James 5, verse 16; Proverbs 6, verses 16–19; Revelation 12, verse 11 “Unashamed” Episode 1283 is sponsored by: https://rocketmoney.com/unashamed — Join Rocket Money and let them help you reach your financial goals faster. https://ponchooutdoors.com/unashamed — Get $10 off your first order and free shipping! http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Check out At Home with Phil Robertson, nearly 800 episodes of Phil's unfiltered wisdom, humor, and biblical truth, available for free for the first time!

Jase feels nature’s emergency call at the worst possible moment  in full view of small-town traffic! Revisiting the moment Moses pleaded for mercy and God relented, Zach, Al, and Jase wrestle with what it means for us today— whether our prayers can truly move the heart of God or if His will was always unfolding as planned. The guys explore the “lawlessness” of sin and why loving your neighbor could be the difference between mercy and destruction.

A blood moon sparks fresh waves of end-times predictions, apocalyptic charts, and doomsday rhetoric — but is that really the point? Jase, Al, and Zach push back on the obsession with “when” and “where,” arguing that Scripture shifts the focus to who you’re with and whether you’re ready. From 1 Thessalonians to Jesus healing on the Sabbath, the conversation reframes heaven not as escape, but as meaningful work in a renewed creation.  In this episode: 1 Thessalonians 4, verses 13–18; 1 Thessalonians 5, verses 1–4; 1 John 3, verses 16–19; John 5, verses 1–17; Matthew 11, verse 28; Romans 8, verse 19; Genesis 1, verse 28 “Unashamed” Episode 1281 is sponsored by: https://texassuperfood.com — Get 35% off your first order when you use code Unashamed. https://trustandwill.com/unashamed — Get 20% off and protect your legacy today!  https://chministries.org/unashamed — See why Christians are ditching health insurance for good.

What if Satan’s strategy against mankind hasn’t changed since the time of Job? The guys examine how the evil one attacks three core areas of a man’s life and how Jesus restores what’s been taken. A ten-second exchange in a meet-and-greet line sparks Jase’s deeper dive into the “new heaven and new earth.” Al and Zach find that the only way to please God isn’t through striving, but through trusting what Jesus has finished. In this episode: Ephesians 5, verse 33; Job 31; Proverbs 31; 1 John 3, verses 1–3; Hebrews 2; 2 Corinthians 12; Matthew 24; Romans 1; 1 Corinthians 15; Romans 6, verses 8–10; 1 Corinthians 1, verse 30; John 20; John 21; Hebrews 9, verses 23–25; John 14; Ephesians 2; Ephesians 6; John 17; Exodus 33; John 1, verses 16–18 “Unashamed” Episode 1280 is sponsored by: https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

The culture’s biggest lie about good and evil is that they’re equal and opposite forces locked in an endless cosmic tug-of-war. Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian explore why that idea quietly reshapes how we see God, Satan, heaven, and hell — and why C.S. Lewis insists it falls apart under real Christian theology. From Jesus’ temptation in the wilderness to Lewis’ picture of hell as a shrinking, hollow existence, the guys explore how evil is a distortion of what God created as good. In this episode: Matthew 4, verses 1–11; 1 John 2, verses 15–17; 1 Timothy 6, verses 11–16; 2 Corinthians 12, verses 7–10; Hebrews 12, verses 26–28; 1 Kings 8, verse 27; Acts 7 Today’s conversation is about Lesson 7 of C.S. Lewis on Christianity taught by visiting Hillsdale professor Michael Ward. Take the course with us at no cost to you! Sign up at http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/. More about C.S. Lewis on Christianity: Encounter the faith & wisdom of C.S. Lewis C.S. Lewis’s writings bring the great questions of the Christian faith to life. Through his imaginative and invigorating style, Lewis answers these questions in ways that are compelling to those outside Christianity and energizing to those within the Christian faith. In this free, seven-lecture course, Professor Michael Ward—a leading scholar of C.S. Lewis—will explore Lewis’s: argument for objective moral value in response to the rise of modern subjectivism; bittersweet path to conversion and the role of enjoyment in the Christian life; advice regarding the proper way to pray and read the Bible; teachings concerning the purpose of pain and how to confront suffering and loss; insights about the nature of heaven and hell. This course examines these fundamental topics not only through his classic works—including Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters, and The Abolition of Man—but also through Lewis’s personal experiences with doubt, conversion, suffering, grief, and joy. Through this course, students will discover Lewis’s core lessons regarding the truth and goodness of the Christian faith and how to apply those lessons to one’s life.  Join us today in discovering C.S. Lewis’s enduring lessons about the meaning and practice of Christianity.

A Frank Sinatra hit song, a COVID-era mask callback, and a brutally smelly airplane converge into one uncomfortable truth: spiritual independence sounds great…until it doesn’t. The guys center on John 15 and the difference between staying connected to the source of life and slowly drifting into spiritual decay. Along the way, they land on two words they argue may be the most important in all of Scripture and figure out how to become best friends with Jesus. In this episode: Matthew 28, verses 18–20; Acts 17, verses 24–28; John 15, verses 1–17; 2 Corinthians 2, verses 14–16; Ephesians 1, verses 4–10; 1 John 2, verse 6; Hebrews 2, verses 5–9; Hebrews 12, verses 26–28; Psalm 8, verses 3–6 “Unashamed” Episode 1278 is sponsored by: https://timtebow.com/tree-unashamed —  Get your copy of If the Tree Could Speak by Tim Tebow on Amazon today! https://cozyearth.com/unashamed — Get up to 20% off when you use our link or code UNASHAMED! https://preborn.com/unashamed — Visit the PreBorn! website or dial #250 and use keyword BABY to donate today. http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Check out At Home with Phil Robertson, nearly 800 episodes of Phil's unfiltered wisdom, humor, and biblical truth, available for free for the first time!

Jase and Al welcome John and Paula Godwin to reflect on the kind of community that shows up in the hardest moments from medical crises to marital collapse and everything in between. They revisit seasons of fear, loss, and uncertainty, including Paula’s HIV needle-stick scare and the painful surgeries that tested Jase and Missy’s resolve. The conversation builds to the powerful “even if” faith of Daniel 3 — trusting God not only when He delivers what we ask for, but even if He doesn’t.

Uncle Si insists his kids are proof there’s a God and that grace can transform even the most unlikely dad. He, Jase, and Al agree the greatest treasure isn’t gold at all, and while Si claims he’s discovered the fountain of youth, he’s still planning his own eulogy just in case. The guys dive into a deeper discussion about “special knowledge” in 1 John, what truly changes a man, and the difference between knowing about Jesus and actually knowing Him.  In this episode: Proverbs 21, verses 30–31; Hebrews 11, verse 6; 1 John 3, verses 16 and 24; Romans 5, verse 10; 1 John 3, verses 1–10; 1 Corinthians 15, verse 17; 2 Thessalonians 1, verses 7–8; John 10, verse 18; Acts 2, verses 22–24 “Unashamed” Episode 1276 is sponsored by: https://chministries.org/unashamed — See why Christians are ditching health insurance for good.

Jase repents to Tim Tebow after admitting he sorely misjudged him when they first met, assuming his bold faith was an act. Tim opens up about fatherhood, marriage, and the conviction that sparked Tim’s new book — imagining the crucifixion from the perspective of the tree that held Jesus. The guys wrestle with a piercing question: when we stay silent about Christ, is it because we don’t really believe the gospel or because we don’t love people enough?

The guys confess their most egregious romance fails from forgotten birthdays, last-minute Valentine’s plans, and bookstore traditions gone stale to wildly different philosophies on “setting the bar” in marriage. Al uses the pain of romance to highlight another truth: there’s pain that hurts, and pain that alters. That distinction becomes personal as Zach opens up about his mother’s long battle with early-onset dementia and the complicated grief that followed her passing. The conversation turns to one of Christianity’s hardest realities: if God is good and all-powerful, why does so much suffering continue in the world?  In this episode: Ecclesiastes 3, verse 11; Psalm 90, verse 12; Hebrews 12, verse 2; Colossians 2, verses 20–23; Romans 1, verses 24–25; Romans 8, verses 20–23; 1 John 2, verses 15–16; 1 John 4, verses 8–10 Today’s conversation is about Lesson 6 of C.S.

As cultural division deepens and politics dominate everyday life, Jase, Al, and Zach turn to First John to ask a harder question: if we claim to love God, do we love people who disagree with us? John writes, “This is how we know,” pointing back to two simple commands — believe in Jesus and love one another. In a polarized world fueled by outrage, love is the real test of faith. Plus, Jase has an unexpectedly emotional encounter in an airport terminal that leaves tears flowing and a life changed.  In this episode: 1 John 1, verses 6–9; 1 John 2, verses 1–6; 1 John 2, verses 28–29; 1 John 3, verses 1–3; 1 John 3, verses 10–24; 1 John 4, verses 2–13; 1 John 5, verses 2–3; 1 John 5, verse 20; Romans 4, verses 18–21; Matthew 18, verses 1–4 “Unashamed” Episode 1273 is sponsored by: https://www.bruntworkwear.com/unashamed — Get $10 Off at BRUNT with code Unashamed at checkout. https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Young people today are pushing past their skepticism toward religion to reconsider Jesus in a politically charged, post-truth global culture — something Jase witnesses firsthand after a particularly authentic Gospel presentation. Al meets a young man who “loves Jesus but loathes religion,” prompting the guys to consider the very real concerns people have about the ways human sin has affected churches and organized religion. Zach offers insight into what it truly means to be “born again” in an age obsessed with time, trends, and technology. Plus, Jase teaches young husbands how to execute a “pro move” when it comes to giving gifts to their wives.

With partisan politics taking center stage instead of athletic excellence at the Olympic Games, Jase, Al, and Zach wonder what happened to simple national pride. What was once a rare moment of unity now feels like another front in the culture wars. That frustration leads to a wild look back at the Robertsons’ own dangerously reckless “Backyard Winter Olympics,” where frozen ponds, car hoods, and homemade skis somehow didn’t end in tragedy. Beneath the cultural chaos runs a deeper question: if grace is real, why do we have to worry about doing what’s good and right?  In this episode: 1 John 2, verses 28–29; 1 John 3, verses 1–10; 1 John 4, verse 7; Romans 1, verses 1–5; Romans 5, verses 12–21; Romans 6, verses 1–11; Romans 7, verses 1–6; 1 Peter 1, verses 18–23; Hebrews 11, verse 1 “Unashamed” Episode 1271 is sponsored by: https://meetfabric.com/unashamed — Join the thousands of parents who trust Fabric to help protect their family. https://homechef.com/unashamed — Get 50% off and free shipping on your first box plus free dessert for life! https://rocketmoney.com/unashamed — Join Rocket Money and let them help you reach your financial goals faster. https://chministries.org/unashamed — See why Christians are ditching health insurance for good.

As headlines warn that artificial intelligence could upend jobs, industries, and even human identity, Jase, Al, and Zach take a sober look at why the AI age feels so apocalyptic. From stock market panic to viral deepfakes and doomsday predictions, the guys acknowledge that massive cultural shifts are coming. But instead of giving in to a tailspin of fear, they pivot to Revelation and the steady promise that no technological revolution can dethrone Jesus. In a world drowning in information but starving for meaning, communion, love, and knowing Christ are the only answers that outlast every empire, every innovation, and every so-called “end of the world.” In this episode: Revelation 1, verse 1; Revelation 1, verses 4–8; Revelation 3, verse 3; Revelation 22, verses 7, 17, 20; Daniel 7; Ephesians 3, verse 10; 1 Thessalonians 4, verses 16–17; 2 Thessalonians 1; John 14 “Unashamed” Episode 1270 is sponsored by: https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Zach, Al, Christian, and John Luke dig into why unanswered prayers can feel like personal rejection from God—and how faith survives that silence. Zach surprises everyone first with his unexpected knowledge of cosmic anomalies, then with an embarrassing middle school dance rejection story he’s clearly still not over. The conversation turns to C.S. Lewis’s struggle with loss, doubt, and the “sincerity spiral” that nearly drove him from faith. His journey becomes a hopeful illustration of how to move your prayer life beyond fear and into something both deeply sincere and thoughtfully rooted in Christ. In this episode: Romans 12, chapters 1–2; Romans 8, verses 18–27; Genesis 1, verse 28; John 1, verses 1–2; John 1, verse 14; John 5, verse 39; Luke 24, verses 13–35; Colossians 2, verses 20–23; 2 Peter 1, verse 4 Today’s conversation is about Lesson 5 of C.S.

Jase, Al, and Zach welcome MercyMe frontman Bart Millard for a raw discussion about childhood abuse, inherited trauma, depression, and the weight of fatherhood. Jase relates a surprising connection between Bart and his oldest son, Reed, early in Reed’s music career. The guys reflect on the grief and pride that comes from watching your children rise up stronger through the very pain that once nearly broke you.

Jase sets the record straight after media outlets exaggerate his chainsaw mishap and plane story, sparking a bigger conversation about headline culture versus truth. Al experiences a surreal moment known only to people who’ve had actors play them, and Jase risks it all to make Missy happy. The guys shift into 1 John to unpack anti-Messiah, fellowship versus division, and what it means to abide in Christ. In a culture driven by spin, they remind listeners that God’s faithfulness, not hype, is what allows believers to stand unashamed.

Bill Gates, Barack Obama, and Donald Trump all get labeled the Antichrist, but the truth may be far closer to home than anyone expects. The guys ponder why modern culture is obsessed with naming a single villain and what Scripture actually teaches about the spirit of deception at work in the world. They explore how darkness erodes relationships and how Phil once refused to compromise his teachings for financial gain. In this episode: 1 John 1, verses 1–7; 1 John 2, verses 11–14; 1 John 2, verses 18–27; 1 John 3, verse 24; 1 John 4, verses 1–4; 1 John 5, verses 4–5; 1 John 5, verse 19; John 16, verse 33; Romans 12, verse 21; Ephesians 2, verses 1–3; Ephesians 6, verses 10–18; 2 Thessalonians 2, verses 1–12 “Unashamed” Episode 1266 is sponsored by: Get an extra 25 cents back for every gallon on your first tank of gas when you download the FREE Upside App and use promo code UNASHAMED!

The Super Bowl halftime show sparked outrage, but Jase, Al, and Zach argue that reaction misses the real issue. Using Bad Bunny’s performance and TPUSA’s alternate halftime featuring Kid Rock as a contrast, they cover why cultural moments like this reveal a deeper spiritual battle.  Plus, Jase makes the case that when it comes to lasting hope, the Easter Bunny is still the better bunny anyway.

Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian wrestle with why intimacy feels so difficult for American men—both with God and in marriage. Following along with C.S. Lewis’s Surprised by Joy, they explore how knowledge alone can’t produce real closeness, and why desire and longing shape the way men actually live. The guys challenge the idea that faith is about mastering concepts instead of participating in a relationship. They point toward a hopeful vision of intimacy that isn’t forced or performed, but rediscovered through joy, presence, and learning to live inside God’s story rather than observing it from a distance.

The Epstein files spark a sobering conversation about corruption, secrecy, and the cost of unchecked power. The guys examine why evil operating in darkness should never shock us, and how history, Scripture, and human nature all point to the same outcome when desire goes unrestrained.

As the world feels increasingly dark and chaotic, Jase, Al, and Zach argue that what we’re experiencing isn’t just cultural or political—it’s spiritual. They discuss why evil thrives when it goes unchallenged, how desire can quietly turn destructive, and why fighting the wrong enemy leaves people trapped in confusion. The conversation ultimately points to hope, reminding listeners that Christ came to destroy the work of evil and that true joy is made complete through union with Him and participation in His life.

Jase, Missy, and Al dive into an unfiltered conversation about cheating, confession, and the judgment that often follows when sin comes into the light. Joined by longtime friend, author, and counselor Kasey Van Norman, they confront the lie beneath adultery and why hiding can feel safer than healing, especially in church culture.

The Robertsons dig into why truth doesn’t always play well in modern culture, and why Jesus wouldn’t be popular in a TikTok world built on virality and approval. The guys talk through everything from their long-running distrust of dentists to why being pro-life isn’t a matter of personal preference or opinion. They reflect on how stories like The Chronicles of Narnia communicate hard truths better than arguments ever could and why true change is often so uncomfortable. Today’s conversation is about Lesson 2 of C.S. Lewis on Christianity taught by visiting Hillsdale professor Michael Ward. Take the course with us at no cost to you!

Lewis—will explore Lewis’s: argument for objective moral value in response to the rise of modern subjectivism; bittersweet path to conversion and the role of enjoyment in the Christian life; advice regarding the proper way to pray and read the Bible; teachings concerning the purpose of pain and how to confront suffering and loss; insights about the nature of heaven and hell.

As the Robertsons begin wrapping up their first full duck season without Phil, they reflect on legacy, hard work, and the faith that shaped their family. Phyllis joins the conversation to look back on Phil’s later years, the weight of the words “I never knew,” and the healing that followed Phil’s honesty instead of silence. The guys and Phyllis discuss trauma, forgiveness, and how truth spoken even late in life can still bring restoration.  To hear Phyllis’s story from the beginning, watch her first Unashamed appearances in episodes 95 and 96 here:  https://youtu.be/9n4Ab6mL9W0?si=YD9337YYIr5_AC6n https://youtu.be/kA4BCl5mhbY?si=MJgoQOfNB0EXjkwk And pre-order her book I Never Knew at https://ineverknewbook.com  In this episode: Hebrews 12, verse 11; Romans 12, verse 2; 2 Corinthians 5, verse 17; Philippians 3, verse 13 Check out At Home with Phil Robertson, nearly 800 episodes of Phil's unfiltered wisdom, humor, and biblical truth, available for free for the first time!

Jase opens up about late-season duck hunting, exhaustion, and a call he wishes he could take back, owning a miss that came from pushing himself too far. Phil’s old-school wisdom and the legendary ham bribe prove  lessons that still hold up when put to the test. The guys turn to why confidence and self-help can only take you so far when it comes to real change. Plus, Jase discovers Napoleon Dynamite about 25 years too late!

Jase wakes up expecting a quiet morning and instead finds himself facing a household mess that leads to an honest, awkward conversation with his daughter Mia about late-night choices and personal responsibility. Al reflects on a painful season when his marriage felt like it was on the brink. Looking back, he shares how learning to see past failure made it possible to imagine a future again, even when hope felt out of reach.

Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian reflect on a moment when Phil, a man who rarely got emotional, was moved to tears after witnessing the reality of unimaginable evil. The guys launch into a sobering conversation about why atrocities like the Holocaust can never be reduced to opinion or explained away, and why denying such evil ultimately erodes the very idea of right and wrong. Drawing on the works of C.S. Lewis, they wrestle with where moral truth comes from, why it exists beyond personal preference, and how abandoning it opens the door to history’s darkest chapters.

President Trump being given the Nobel Peace Prize by the Venezuelan opposition leader creates the perfect moment to contrast the world’s version of peace with God’s. The guys argue that in moments of chaos—like what’s unfolding in Minnesota—Christians are called to be the eye of the storm, not trapped in an Us vs. Them mindset. They connect true peace to faithfulness in parenting, marriage, and everyday relationships, reminding listeners that humility, responsibility, and forgiveness, not cultural wins, are what actually bring lasting peace.

Jase, Al, and Zach condemn a Minnesota church protest as “pure chaos” while expressing sympathy for the pastor forced to restore order as kids cried and the service unraveled. The conversation widens to how protest culture, immigration clashes, and nonstop crisis headlines are driving national anxiety and division. As “storm of the century” headlines fuel panic across the South, the guys cut through the hype with chainsaws and confidence. Zach points out how Jesus isn’t confined to one side of the political aisle, his love is open to socialists, MAGA, and everyone in between.  In this episode: 1 John 1, verse 5; 1 John 1, verses 6–7; 1 John 2, verses 1–2; John 16, verse 33; Ephesians 1, verses 4–22; Ephesians 2, verse 6; Ephesians 2, verses 14–16; Ephesians 3, verses 6-10 Check out At Home with Phil Robertson, nearly 800 episodes of Phil's unfiltered wisdom, humor, and biblical truth, available for free for the first time!

Jase, Al, and Zach reflect on Phil’s uncanny ability to see through people, often calling out the truth before anyone admitted it, and how that instinct shaped the way he raised his sons. Jase shares stories from his teenage years about standing alone, losing friends, and learning to “trash talk for Jesus” on the football field. The guys dig into why confession isn’t weakness, why the cover-up of sin is always worse, and how walking honestly with Jesus changes everything—whether people like it or not.

Al shares how he ended up on Fox News defending his podcast comments about liberal policies in major cities, while the guys laugh about the media repeatedly crediting the wrong Robertson for the same quotes. Bill Maher’s growing distance from woke orthodoxy sparks curiosity and even has Jase joking about inviting him into the studio for a real conversation about Jesus. The guys turn to Jesus’ prayer in John 17, exploring eternal life as active participation with God that reshapes how believers live, suffer, and face death.

Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian conclude their study of David by confronting the truth that forgiveness does not erase consequences. They trace how unaddressed sin and lingering guilt created a leadership vacuum that fractured David’s family, fueled rebellion, and led to civil war and the death of thousands. The guys show how private sin inevitably becomes public and why silence after repentance can be as destructive as the original failure. They close by pointing to Jesus as the true Shepherd-King who restores what sin deforms and leads with justice and mercy.  In this episode: Psalm 51; 2 Samuel 7, verses 12–16; 2 Samuel 12, verses 1–14; Genesis 4, verses 1–8; 1 Samuel 16, verses 1–13; 2 Samuel 21, verses 1–14; 2 Samuel 24, verses 15–25; Matthew 1, verses 1–17 Today's conversation is about Lessons 7 & 8 of The David Story: Shepherd, Father, King taught by Hillsdale Professor Justin Jackson.

The David Story: Shepherd, Father, King explores the lives of Israel's first two kings—Saul and David—to discover the Bible’s profound lessons about fatherhood, the nature of sin, and the consequences of sin on both a family and a nation. While David suffers great tragedies due to his own transgressions, he models a path to redemption through repentance.

Jase and Al celebrate Miss Kay’s latest unexpected milestone that reflects her strength and progress after a difficult season. The guys emphasize that real faith isn’t just something you claim but a relationship that transforms you from the inside out. That leads into a thoughtful discussion about a “reformed” adult film star who publicly professed Christianity before returning to her old life, raising hard questions about belief, trust, and lasting change. Plus, the guys dig into Scripture to explore why people in the Old Testament lived hundreds of years and what that reveals about age, time, and eternity. In this episode: 1 John 1, verses 1–10; 1 John 2, verses 1–2; Genesis 6, verse 3; Psalm 90, verses 1–17; 1 Corinthians 2, verses 6–16; John 3, verse 36; John 5, verse 24; John 15, verses 9–12; John 16, verses 22–24; Romans 5, verses 1–11; Romans 6, verses 1–11; Philippians 4, verses 10–13; Ephesians 2, verses 8–10 Check out At Home with Phil Robertson, nearly 800 episodes of Phil's unfiltered wisdom, humor, and biblical truth, available for free for the first time!

Jase shares some of the most dangerous moments he’s witnessed in the woods, explaining why hunting safety has become non-negotiable after too many close calls that nearly cost lives. He demonstrates how getting pressured into an awkward auction led to a chain of events that convinced him coincidences aren’t real. The guys turn toward the difference between pain that merely hurts and pain that actually changes you, drawing on real experiences of risk, loss, and growth. The guys wrestle with why avoiding pain often leads to worse outcomes and how joy is often forged on the other side of endurance rather than comfort. In this episode: James 1, verse 2; First Peter 1, verses 6–8; John 15, verse 11; John 16, verse 24; John 17, verse 13; James 1, verses 13–15; Proverbs 13, verse 14; Proverbs 12, verse 28; Romans 8, verses 35–39 Check out At Home with Phil Robertson, nearly 800 episodes of Phil's unfiltered wisdom, humor, and biblical truth, available for free for the first time!

Jase, Al, and Zach connect recent headlines about the Minnesota daycare fraud scheme to a deeper biblical truth: life built outside God’s wisdom always collapses into dust. Drawing from Proverbs and real-world scandals, the guys dive into how deception thrives in darkness but never survives the light of truth or God’s design for human flourishing. Jase reveals the shocking move he made when his daughter Mia brought home her first boyfriend—and how it traces back to the time he himself was threatened with death just for walking through a girlfriend’s front door.  In this episode: Proverbs 8; Proverbs 14, verse 4; Proverbs 21, verses 6, 9, 19, and 30; Proverbs 22, verses 6 and 29; Proverbs 30, verses 15–16, 18–19, and 24–28; Colossians 3, verse 23; James 1, verses 13–15; James 3, verses 13–18; 1 John 3, verse 8; Hebrews 12, verses 26–28; Genesis 1, verse 1; Genesis 2, verses 15–17; Genesis 3, verses 1–7 Check out At Home with Phil Robertson, nearly 800 episodes of Phil's unfiltered wisdom, humor, and biblical truth, available for free for the first time!

Jase skips duck season for a few days to go treasure hunting and stumbles into a reminder about how quickly towns—and priorities—can disappear. Uncle Si’s joke resurfaces and Jase finally understands after it took decades to land. The guys pivot into a deeper discussion of wisdom, drawing from Proverbs to argue that wisdom isn’t a list of rules, but the grain God built into creation itself.  In this episode: Genesis 9; Acts 10; Leviticus 18; John 1, verses 1–14; Hebrews 1, verses 1–4; Proverbs 8, verses 1 and 22–31; Matthew 11, verse 19; First Corinthians 1, verse 24; First Corinthians 1, verse 30; Colossians 1, verse 15; Colossians 1, verse 28; Colossians 2, verse 3; Ephesians 2, verses 8–10; First John 1, verses 1–3; First John 2, verse 6; First John 3, verse 5; First John 3, verse 24 Check out At Home with Phil Robertson, nearly 800 episodes of Phil's unfiltered wisdom, humor, and biblical truth, available for free for the first time!

Christian, John Luke, Al, and Zach reflect on how objectifying women leads to far-reaching consequences, using David’s downfall as a sobering case study. They examine how lust distorts responsibility, turns people into collateral damage, and quietly erodes families and faith long before the fallout becomes public. Al uses his own experience with infidelity in a marriage to point to hope rooted in Psalm 51, which urges repentance, humility, and restoration as the only path forward after failure. In this episode: 2 Samuel 11, verses 1–27; 2 Samuel 12, verses 1–14; 2 Samuel 12, verses 15–23; Psalm 51, verses 1–19; Genesis 1, verse 28; Genesis 39, verses 7–12; Exodus 1, verses 1–8; Revelation 12, verse 11; 1 Kings 2, verses 1–4; Ezekiel 23, verses 1–35 Today's conversation is about Lesson 6 of The David Story: Shepherd, Father, King taught by Hillsdale Professor Justin Jackson.

Jase admits that trusting Amish healing advice briefly turned him into something resembling a human blowtorch. The guys explore the difference between idolatry and dominion, arguing that when people surrender control to creation instead of cultivating it under God, chaos follows. They reflect on how God’s light reveals truths we can’t understand when we’re determined to live in our own darkness. In this episode: Genesis 1, verses 1–4; Genesis 1, verse 28; Psalm 19, verses 1–6; John 1, verses 1–5; John 9, verses 35–41; Colossians 3, verse 4; Ephesians 2, verses 8–10; Second Corinthians 6, verse 1; First John 1, verses 1–7 Check out At Home with Phil Robertson, nearly 800 episodes of Phil's unfiltered wisdom, humor, and biblical truth, available for free for the first time!

Jase offers a painfully funny account of a pre-dawn mishap that leaves his family jewels in serious jeopardy and the rest of the room somewhere between laughing and wincing. Al celebrates turning 61 and reflects on feeling healthier than ever—even as Jase’s story proves that the margin for error gets slimmer with age. The guys lay out an overview of 1 John, as well as an account of John’s remarkable life. They also dig into why the early church had to defend the truth that Jesus really appeared in the flesh, not as an idea or symbol, but as a living, tangible person.  In this episode: Proverbs 6, verses 26–29; John 20, verses 30–31; 1 Timothy 3, verse 16; John 17, verses 20–26; 1 John 1-5 “Unashamed” Episode 1242 is sponsored by: https://chministries.org/unashamed — See why Christians are ditching health insurance for good.

Jase commits a legendary family group text faux pas that spirals into chaos, disbelief, and a full-on wager among Willie’s kids. John Luke—and the rest of Willie’s crew—start betting on whether Jase could really have written the message himself or if artificial intelligence had to be involved. The conversation asks if artificial intelligence can ever move with the Holy Spirit or if it’s limited to imitation, no matter how impressive it sounds.

Jase, Al, Zach, and Willie welcome world-famous financial advisor Dave Ramsey for a blunt conversation about the parenting lie quietly raising generations of entitlement. Dave shares hard-earned wisdom on money, discipline, and why trying to make life “easy” for kids often backfires for American families. They explore how debt, instant gratification, and misplaced ideas of fairness undermine responsibility and character. The guys challenge parents to rethink how to raise kids who are prepared for real life—not needing to be rescued from it. http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Check out At Home with Phil Robertson, nearly 800 episodes of Phil's unfiltered wisdom, humor, and biblical truth, available for free for the first time!

Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian explore one of the Bible’s most sobering warnings about sexual sin through the story of King David. The guys explain why pornography and sexual temptation rarely begin with desire alone, but with idleness, boredom, and abandoning responsibility—long before the “rooftop moment.” Al explains David’s repentance in Psalm 51 as both a warning and a hope, reminding listeners that while sexual sin carries real consequences, God’s covenant faithfulness still offers a path back. In this episode: 1 Samuel 13, verse 14; 1 Samuel 16, verse 7; 2 Samuel 7, verses 8–16; 2 Samuel 11, verses 1–27; Psalm 22; Psalm 23; Psalm 51; Psalm 139, verses 13–16; Matthew 12, verses 43–45; Hebrews 12, verses 28–29 Today's conversation is about Lesson 6 of The David Story: Shepherd, Father, King taught by Hillsdale Professor Justin Jackson.

The “Duck Dynasty" family shares joyful news as two new babies are welcomed into the next generation! The guys dive into to legacy, responsibility, and how moments of new life often prompt deeper reflection on faith and purpose. Jase and the guys explore Peter’s restoration after failure, focusing on how Jesus meets people where they are and calls them forward rather than leaving them in guilt. They tie new beginnings to the hope of resurrection and the grace that keeps God’s family growing. In this episode: Matthew 28, verses 18–20; Mark 16, verses 15–19; Luke 24, verses 36–49; John 2, verses 1–11; John 10, verses 1–18; John 13, verses 36–38; John 20, verses 30–31; John 21, verses 1–23; Acts 1, verses 6–11; Acts 10, verses 9–48; 1 Corinthians 15, verses 12–20; Galatians 2, verses 11–14; Hebrews 11, verses 35–40; 1 Peter 5, verses 1–4; Deuteronomy 29, verse 29 Chapters: 00:00-06:47 The meaning of faith “incarnate” 06:48-14:16 Will there be marriage in Heaven? 14:17-23:58 Jump OUT of the boat!! 23:59-32:40 Three types of love 32:41-39:55 Peter lives his own foretold death 39:56-46:10 Thank God for unanswered prayers 46:11-54:06 At the end of the day, Jesus gives rest — Learn more about your ad choices.

After pushing himself to the brink trying to live up to the pace and standards Phil carried for decades, Jase walks away with a new appreciation for just how much his dad handled. The guys explore how Scripture reframes work and rest as part of God’s design rather than opposites, especially in light of Jesus’ resurrection. They close by reflecting on the difference between perishable and imperishable bodies, and why the hope of new creation gives meaning to both our limits now and what lies ahead. In this episode: John 20, verses 19–29; Luke 24, verses 13–35; John 21, verses 1–14; Genesis 1, verses 1–31; Genesis 2, verses 2–15; Hebrews 2, verses 14–15; Hebrews 4, verses 1–11; Ephesians 2, verses 1–10; Revelation 21, verse 27 Chapters: 00:00-07:32 God’s perfect engineer 07:33-14:13 Wrapping up a sprawling study of John 14:14-23:43 Perishable bodies vs. imperishable bodies 23:44-32:37 What it truly means to “rest” 32:38-43:13 Working isn’t a curse, it’s our purpose 43:14-55:28 Going to brunch with Jesus — Learn more about your ad choices.

Jase admits a big personal mistake that left him with a bellyful of regret and somehow also became that “Duck Dynasty” episode. Jase and Al reap the benefits of having their studio at the Duck Commander headquarters while Zach sadly looks on. The guys reflect on what it means to participate in God’s life, why the resurrection elevates the physical world, and how even mustard-seed faith can lead to real peace.

The Robertson wives join the table for family stories, evolving traditions, and the moments that keep their growing clan connected.

Jase hijacks an eight-hour road trip with a nonstop deep dive sparked by one simple question, and Al reveals the surprising and touching secret hidden in the walls of his home for decades. The guys unpack how ordinary people become the place where heaven and earth meet, why forgiveness is spiritual warfare, and why anointing still carries real power.

Christian Huff awkwardly opens up a little too much about life at home, but John Luke quickly tops it by declaring he has not just one adversary, but tons of low-level foes, sparking a dramatic debate about what it means to trust God with the fate of our enemies. The guys move into the unsettling world of Saul’s downfall, the “ghostwife” of Endor, and the moment Scripture proves the dead can indeed speak. David’s restraint, Saul’s unraveling, and the haunting echo of Samuel’s return all point to the deeper truth about spiritual warfare, leadership, jealousy, and trusting God’s timing.

Jase, Al, and Zach respond to an emotionally raw husband who finally confessed his lifelong porn problem and is now facing the painful fallout. The guys talk honestly about how secrets choke intimacy, why confession hurts before it heals, and how hiding only multiplies the damage that sin has already done. They pivot into Phil’s old “soul-sleep” way of describing death and compare it to Jesus’ promise of paradise and Paul’s glimpses of the world to come. The guys land on why believers can face both confession and death with confidence: in Christ, neither your darkest secret nor your final breath gets the last word.

Honoring Phil with an opening-day hunt leads the guys into a conversation about death, the physical reality of our bodies breaking down, and the haunting mystery of what becomes of our souls.

Jase and Al open the episode with a sheepish “my bad” after a producer fact-checks one of their rock-’n’-roll memories.

Guests Jeremy and Melissa Souza of Good Simple Living share how they built an off-grid homestead from scratch, raised their kids with purpose and grit, and found real community beyond the internet. The guys, Jeremy, and Melissa laugh about learning self-reliance the hard way, surviving on wit and curiosity long before homesteading was cool.

Jase, Al, and Zach open up with raw honesty about their first encounters with pornography, how early exposure warped their understanding of intimacy, and the damage it caused in their own lives and marriages. They share how confession, community, and God’s grace became the foundation for lasting healing and freedom. The guys highlight how pornography’s reach has become a modern scourge, but also how partners like Covenant Eyes are giving families real tools to fight back.

Jase recounts a travel gauntlet worthy of its own sitcom, including an in-air collision with his favorite waterfowl, before walking into a rough crowd where his jokes flop. But a heartfelt tribute to Missy leaves her beaming and Al and Zach taking notes for their own playbooks.

Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian explore the demonic powers revealed in Exodus as the plagues close in on Pharaoh’s Egypt. Al and Zach recall their visit to Auschwitz, where they both felt a chilling, decades-old evil that seemed to confirm the spiritual realities Scripture describes. Back home, John Luke faces his own “plague of biblical proportions,” though his version is admittedly more mundane than the ones that befell Egypt. The guys reflect on why God revealed His name as Yahweh, what that name means for believers today, and how our hearts must be positioned before we can truly enter His presence.

Jase shares the hilarious “tell” that gives away when a Robertson doesn’t like you, plus the rare name-drop that totally flopped. A tense run-in on private land turns into a witness moment when Jase drops the name of Jesus instead. Jase, Al, and Zach talk about finding your own “rooster-crow moment” and the surprising importance of fire throughout Scripture—from Peter’s denial to God’s refining work in every believer.

Jase vents his frustration with the media's handling of President Trump’s recent comments about “getting into” heaven. The guys push back on checklist-based faith while acknowledging the balance between godly behavior and trusting in grace. Al and Zach pick their own walk-up songs, though it’s clear they don’t fully grasp the concept. The guys urge anyone with a platform to use it to point people to Jesus, noting that now is the time to be bold as more people seem open to spiritual matters.

SPOILER ALERT! This episode contains discussions of Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy. Listener discretion is advised in the presence of young children! The Mia Moo Mascot loses its head and Jase is forced to have an uncomfortable conversation with his three-year-old godson about Jesus, Santa, and all the other characters in kids’ lives. The guys turn to a thoughtful conversation about Santa, honesty, and how to protect a child’s wonder while pointing them toward lasting truth. They dive into the hope of the resurrection and the promise that creation itself will be made new, tracing how Scripture ties together red letters, black letters, and the story of real, bodily renewal for all who follow Christ.

Jase explains why Tom Petty’s “I Won’t Back Down” is his new walk-up song, and Zach pitches a wives-included “Unashamed Live” tour. Jase proves that Unashamed Nation is the best group of fans out there, and he reins in his rabbit holes long enough for the guys to finally dive into John 18’s illegal proceedings against Jesus, contrasting earthly power with sacrificial victory. They connect Pilate’s mockery of Jesus and the Barabbas exchange to the mission that carries the Word of God to the ends of the earth. In this episode: John 18; Matthew 26; Daniel 7; Daniel 2; Acts 1, verse 8; Acts 8; Acts 9; Isaiah 49, verse 6; Isaiah 52–53; Psalm 110; Ephesians 1; Romans 8; Romans 1, verse 16; Matthew 16; Ephesians 6 Chapters: 00:00-05:04 Jase pulls a pro fishing move 05:05-9:00 Proving Unashamed listeners are the best 9:01-19:11 A brief history of Tom Petty 19:12-25:28 Floating an Unashamed Conference idea 25:29-29:31 Finally getting to John 18 29:32-38:40 Pontius Pilate fulfills messianic prophecy 38:41-47:13 Using violence to change truth 47:14-56:03 Jesus destroys the walls between us — Learn more about your ad choices.

Zach sees a fiery spectacle on his way to the studio, and Christian and John Luke have way too much fun connecting it to the “burning bush” story in Exodus. Al shares how meaningful it was to watch his grandchildren worship during Sunday church service, and the guys pivot to the heart of Exodus 3, reflecting on God’s name, “I Am,” and what holy ground really means when God draws near.

Jase, Al, and Zach sit down with comedian John Crist to talk clean comedy in a cancel-culture world, comedy bombs, and how to recover with humility. Jase reacts to John’s recent engagement and, after confessing his own proposal fiasco, offers honest marriage counsel about apologizing and keeping humor alive. Jase ‘fesses up to finally watching one of John’s stand-up routines, and the guys debate trendy preachers and onstage finesse.

Jase opens with a $5 wager that most of us think too small about “redemption.” Zach points out that most people treat redemption like a “get-out-of-hell free” card, but it actually goes much deeper than that. Al describes what a truly redeemed life looks like because he saw it with his own eyes in Lisa’s life.

Willie and Al get mixed up with the TSA when traveling at the same airport, while Jase gets caught creeping around Willie’s house by the security guy. Jase manages to work out a deal for access anytime he wants. In John 18, the guys follow Jesus from the garden to Israel’s high priests and the cup of wrath poured out during Jesus’ death.

Jase, Al, and Zach recall the cringeworthy nickname Phil used for Miss Kay; she never minded, and it actually revealed how deeply he admired her godly spirit as a wife and mother. Zach praises Al and Lisa’s willingness to share their testimony without shying away from hard, intimate details most people avoid, and the guys explore the power of testimony and confession. Zach notes that even though demonic forces know God’s plan, they cannot comprehend it because they do not speak the language of hope or love.

Jase reflects on the views he shared with the late Charlie Kirk, noting how they both longed to see a divided world healed through oneness with Christ.

Willie Robertson recounts an unforgettable meeting with a fan who was planning to take his own life until a brief exchange changed everything, launching a debate with Jase about how “church speak” can confuse people who simply need the hope of Jesus.

Al, Zach, Christian Huff, and John Luke open up with some family confessions about who the true “favorite” Robertson sibling and grandchild really is. That leads to Genesis 25, where Jacob and Esau’s clash over birthright and blessing mirrors the dangers of picking favorites and the pain of sibling rivalry.
