Unashamed with the Robertson Family

Jase shares how an unexpected compliment went straight to his head and briefly made him feel a little too much like Willie Robertson. The guys ease into what is one of the most overlooked ideas in First John—that eternal life isn’t just a future promise, but a present reality. Linking Hebrews to the Old Testament, the guys explore how Jesus bridges heaven and earth in a way most people miss. In this episode: First John, chapter 1; First John, chapter 2, verse 1; John, chapter 17; First John, chapter 5, verses 4–11; Genesis, chapter 28, verses 11–18; John, chapter 1, verse 51; Isaiah, chapter 54, verses 2–3; Hebrews, chapter 2, verse 10; Hebrews, chapter 5, verses 8–10; Hebrews, chapter 7, verse 28; Hebrews, chapter 4, verse 12 “Unashamed” Episode 1255 is sponsored by: https://homechef.com/unashamed — Get 50% off and free shipping on your first box plus free dessert for life! http://fastgrowingtrees.com/unashamed — Get 20% off your next purchase with code UNASHAMED at checkout! 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 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. Today’s conversation is about Lesson 1 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.

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. In this episode: 1 John 1, verses 6, 8, 10; 1 John 2, verses 9, 12–17; Ephesians 2, verse 10; Ephesians 2, verse 10; Ephesians 3, verses 14–17; Galatians 5, verse 22; Romans 8, verses 10–13; 2 Corinthians 1, verses 3–4; 1 Peter 3, verse 7 “Unashamed” Episode 1253 is sponsored by: Get firearm security redesigned and save 10% off @‌StopBoxUSA with code Unashamed at https://www.stopboxusa.com/unashamed #stopboxpod https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

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 “Unashamed” Episode 1252 is sponsored by: https://bravebooks.com/unashamed — Get 20% off with code UNASHAMED https://andrewandtodd.com or call 888-888-1172 — These guys are the real deal.

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. In this episode: Acts 2, verse 42; 1 Corinthians 1, verses 8–9; 1 Corinthians 10, verses 16–21; 2 Corinthians 6, verses 14–18; 2 Corinthians 13, verse 14; Philippians 1, verses 5–6; Philippians 2, verses 1–2; Philippians 3, verse 10; Galatians 2, verse 9; Philemon, verse 6; Hebrews 13, verses 12–16; Psalm 131, verses 1–3; Romans 6, verses 3–5 “Unashamed” Episode 1250 is sponsored by: https://texassuperfood.com — Get 35% off your first order with code UNASHAMED today! https://chministries.org/unashamed — See why Christians are ditching health insurance for good.

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. Take the course with us at no cost to you! Sign up at http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ More about The David Story: Encounter the beauty of the Bible. 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. Join Professor Justin Jackson in a careful reading of First and Second Samuel to gain a deeper understanding of the meaning and beauty of this story that is not only fundamental to the Christian and Jewish faiths, but also a literary masterpiece.

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 “Unashamed” Episode 1248 is sponsored by: https://cozyearth.com/unashamed — Get up to 20% off when you use our link or code UNASHAMED!

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 “Unashamed” Episode 1247 is sponsored by: https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

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 “Unashamed” Episode 1246 is sponsored by: https://ruffgreens.com — Get a FREE Jumpstart Trial Bag for your dog today when you use promo code Unashamed! http://fastgrowingtrees.com/unashamed — Get 20% off your next purchase with code UNASHAMED at checkout! http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Listen to Not Yet Now with Zach Dasher on Apple, Spotify, iHeart, or anywhere you get podcasts.

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 about having the “wrong weapon” 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 “Unashamed” Episode 1245 is sponsored by: https://meetfabric.com/unashamed — Join the thousands of parents who trust Fabric to help protect their family. https://bravebooks.com/unashamed — Get 20% off with code UNASHAMED https://chministries.org/unashamed — See why Christians are ditching health insurance for good.

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.

The Robertsons address the decay of America’s biggest and most beautiful cities, pointing to lawlessness, failed leadership, and what happens when humanity gives in to its darkest desires without restraint. 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.

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. “Unashamed” Episode 1240 is sponsored by: https://homechef.com/unashamed — Get 50% off and free shipping on your first box plus free dessert for life! https://andrewandtodd.com or call 888-888-1172 — These guys are the real deal.

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. Take the course with us at no cost to you! Sign up at http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ More about The David Story: Encounter the beauty of the Bible. 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. Join Professor Justin Jackson in a careful reading of First and Second Samuel to gain a deeper understanding of the meaning and beauty of this story that is not only fundamental to the Christian and Jewish faiths, but also a literary masterpiece.

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 “Unashamed” Episode 1238 is sponsored by: https://meetfabric.com/unashamed — Join the thousands of parents who trust Fabric to help protect their family.

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 “Unashamed” Episode 1237 is sponsored by: https://andrewandtodd.com or call 888-888-1172 — These guys are the real deal.

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. In this episode: James 5, verses 14–16; 1 John 2, verses 18–27; John 14, verses 15–27; John 17, verses 1–26; 2 Peter 1, verses 3–4; Genesis 1, verses 26–28; 1 John 3, verses 1–3; Romans 8, verse 11; John 11, verses 14–16; John 20, verses 24–31 “Unashamed” Episode 1236 is sponsored by: Stand firm for values that matter.
