Ep 1418 | Phil Robertson Confronted the Man Pretending to Be His Secret Son

Fri, 11 Sep 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Phil once confronted a man who was pretending to be part of the Robertson family for personal gain, and his method of calling him out was pure Phil. John Luke revisits a bizarre faith-healing claim involving a supposedly regrown body part and wrestle with the danger of confusing blind belief with biblical faith. The guys dig into Abraham, Job, David, and Solomon to show why faith and reason are not enemies, and why a life centered on yourself eventually collapses. They conclude with a simple idea: human beings flourish when they begin with God instead of self. In this episode: Jeremiah 20:7; Psalm 139; Psalm 51; Genesis 22; Hebrews 11; Romans 4; Job 1; Ecclesiastes 3:11; Psalm 19; Romans 1; Genesis 1:28; Ecclesiastes 12:12-13 Today’s conversation is about Lesson 10 of Theology 101: The Western Theological Tradition taught by various Hillsdale Professors.

Thu, 10 Sep 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Zach’s bizarre dream about getting canceled for his beliefs takes an unexpected Phil Robertson turn and launches the guys into a deep dive through Daniel, Revelation, and the kingdom of God. Al, Jase, and Zach trace an ancient timeline that may pinpoint the exact timing of God’s kingdom and make a prophecy of their own. The guys wrestle with the identity of the fourth man in the fire, why ego can blind people to truth, and challenge one of the biggest assumptions Christians make about the end times.

Wed, 09 Sep 2026 20:00:00 -0000
The Lindsay Clancy case sparks a heated debate in some circles as the guys wrestle with mental illness, personal responsibility, and whether modern culture has become too quick to diagnose away evil. Jase and Al draw on their own family’s experience with mental illness, while Zach reflects on his years working in pharmaceutical sales and questions how America approaches mental health treatment. Jase turns to Genesis and James to make the biblical case for justice and accountability, even when compassion is warranted.  In this episode: Matthew 28; Genesis 6; Genesis 9:1-5; Proverbs; James 4:10-17; James 5:1-6; Psalm 127; Ecclesiastes 1-2; Matthew 6 Want to watch the Lost Episodes of Unashamed, only on EKKL?

Dr. Frank Turek confronts a culture where even basic truths about sex, life, and reality have become political battlegrounds. Al, Jase, Zach, and Dr. Turek reflect on his eyewitness account of Charlie Kirk’s murder, the recent trial of his alleged killer, and the surge of evangelistic urgency that came afterward,  His new book, The War on Reality, ties these cultural battles together by arguing that people can deny reality, suppress it, and rename it, but they can never defeat it.

Ep 1414 | A Child’s Tragic Death Forces This Difficult Question About God

Fri, 04 Sep 2026 20:00:00 -0000
John Luke opens up about deconstructing his faith after years of hearing Christians use the Bible to defend conflicting ideas. Al and Christian wrestle with a local tragedy of a child’s unexpected death and the questions it raises about grief, justice, and God’s presence. The guys trace the rise of “my truth” back through the Enlightenment, naturalism, and the split between faith and reason, then consider whether artificial intelligence could be ushering in another massive shift in how people understand truth.  In this episode: Psalm 139; Acts 17; Daniel 3:17-18; Jeremiah 20; Isaiah 55:8-11; Isaiah 1:18; Genesis 22; Hebrews 11; John 1:1-14; Job 2:3; Job 42; John 9; Romans 1; Romans 10 Today’s conversation is about Lesson 9 of Theology 101: The Western Theological Tradition taught by various Hillsdale Professors.

Wed, 02 Sep 2026 20:00:00 -0000
John Cooper of Skillet recruits the Robertsons for his plan to reclaim music and culture for Jesus. John reflects on meeting Phil during his Alzheimer’s journey and learning Skillet’s music helped inspire a Duck Commander cameraman’s dramatic transformation.

Tue, 01 Sep 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Todd Lollar has lived with cerebral palsy his entire life, but the Robertsons see in him the same relentless fire for Jesus that defined Phil. Todd opens up about the moment he stopped viewing his weakness as something holding him back and began seeing it as a place for God’s power to work through him. Jase and Al reflect on the emptiness of worldly success, the cost of openly following Jesus, and why Christians shouldn’t wait for people to walk into a church before bringing the Gospel to them. Todd gets an emotional surprise reunion with longtime friend Gary Osborne and challenges believers to intentionally bring Jesus into their families, friendships, workplaces, and everyday encounters.

Korie Robertson is taking steps to restore something generationally important that many modern families seem to have lost: the intentional work of keeping families connected. She puts a name to that work — “kinkeeping” — as the guys and Korie look at the Robertson family’s own traditions and the importance of passing faith, stories, and family life forward. Jase opens up about missing Phil daily, why working the family land still makes him feel close, and teaming up with Willie to give Zach a hard time over a squabble that becomes a full-fledged family pile-on.

Thu, 27 Aug 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Miss Kay’s famous banana pudding sends all the Robertsons running as Al’s daughter, Anna, recreates the family recipe and sparks a late-night rush for a taste. The guys swap memories tied to Dolly Parton, from childhood family traditions to the kind of old-school American culture that still feels frozen in time.

The guys explore the fleeting nature of life and the hope Christians have in the face of loss.

Jep Robertson’s surprising new chapter has Al reflecting on how far his youngest brother has come, from a season marked by drugs and fear to using his story to encourage others. Zach gets a bizarre notice from the IRS, and Jase and Al revisit their sketchiest childhood job that put them face-to-face with black widows, ant beds, and more danger than most kids ever face. The guys dig into James and Proverbs to make the case that biblical wisdom is something you live, not just something you know, and that God’s jealousy is rooted in covenant love, grace, and a desire for our full loyalty.

Tue, 25 Aug 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Max and Laela, Zach’s eldest children and the duo behind Dasher the Band, open up about the whirlwind of life on the road, from the unexpected phone call that landed them a tour with Larry Fleet to figuring out how to protect their marriages, stay accountable, and keep their faith at the center as new opportunities come their way. Zach, Jase, and Al reflect on building something bigger than yourself and why keeping family close may be one of the best defenses against losing yourself as success grows.

Ep 1405 | The Secret to the Robertson Family’s Strange Talent for Surviving Big Fights

Mon, 24 Aug 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Willie’s questions about the old Robertson property send Al deep into family history and uncover details about the family’s earliest years that even Willie never fully knew. Jase, Al, and Zach look back on the Robertson family’s famously argumentative style and why their fights, however heated, don’t turn into lasting grudges. Jase and Zach also find themselves analyzing their own family backgrounds through a new men’s group, while the conversation turns to why Christians can get distracted by theological arguments and miss the larger purpose of the Gospel.  In this episode: James 1:12-17; James 3:9, 16; James 4:1-7; Proverbs 3:18-19, 34; Genesis 1:28 “Unashamed” Episode 1405 is sponsored by: https://helixsleep.com/unashamed — Get 27% off sitewide and make sure you enter our show name after checkout so they know we sent you! https://chministries.org/unashamed — Get a better solution at half the cost of traditional healthcare!  https://rocketmoney.com/unashamed — Join Rocket Money and let them help you reach your financial goals faster.  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.

Ep 1404 | Church Corruption Shaped More of Our Beliefs Than We Realize

Fri, 21 Aug 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Martin Luther’s outrage over a corrupt church selling indulgences helped ignite the Reformation, but the beliefs that grew out of that upheaval still shape Christianity centuries later. Zach, Al, John Luke, and Christian trace Luther’s struggle with righteousness through Romans, his controversial problem with the book of James, and the tension between faith and works that Christians still wrestle with today. The guys confront the limits of human understanding, exploring whether our obsession with certainty leads us to argue over mysteries we were never equipped to solve. In this episode: Romans 1:16-17, 20; Romans 3; Romans 4; Romans 6-8; Romans 10; 1 Corinthians 15:1-4; James 2; Hebrews 11 Today’s conversation is about Lesson 7 of Theology 101: The Western Theological Tradition taught by various Hillsdale Professors. Take the course with us at no cost to you!  More about Theology 101: Examine the great questions of Western theology from the ancient Hebrews through today. The gift of speech, or reason, given by God to man, enables us to think about God and to worship Him.  This free online course pursues this purpose by examining the nature of God as revealed in the Bible, exploring the great theological questions and controversies of the early Christian church, studying the history of the Reformation and Counter-Reformation, and much more.  We invite you to join us and explore the nature of the relationship between God and man, and how a proper understanding of this relationship can lead to a free and happy life.

Ep 1403 | Jase’s Security Gets Breached—and Phil’s Old Response Suddenly Makes Perfect Sense

Thu, 20 Aug 2026 20:00:00 -0000
A surprising comparison between pornography and marriage reframes the conversation around sex, beauty, and what can only be understood over the course of a faithful life. Jase, Al, and Zach connect that idea to the difference between what looks good in the moment and what actually leads to life, tracing the pattern from Eden to Solomon to the book of James. Jase also recounts the bizarre moment uninvited visitors made it through his security setup and wound up getting an unexpected message about Jesus and the resurrection. In this episode: 1 Peter 3, verse 15; James 3, verses 13–18; 1 Corinthians 2, verse 14; Psalm 127; James 1, verses 2–6; Exodus 31, verse 3; Exodus 35, verse 31; Psalm 107, verse 27; Genesis 1, verse 2; Proverbs 1–9; Genesis 2, verses 15–17; Genesis 3, verses 2–6 “Unashamed” Episode 1403 is sponsored by: https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Ep 1402 | The AI Boom Is About to Prove the Robertsons Right About One BIG Thing

Wed, 19 Aug 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Jase, Al, and Zach look ahead to the AI age and consider why it could make one decidedly old-school part of life more valuable than ever. The guys connect that idea to the family’s unconventional relationship with the global church, debating accountability, community, and whether Christians have become too comfortable consuming church instead of living out their faith together. Plus, Zach gets Randy Travis’ attention with a viral rendition of “I Told You So,” and Jase channels a little Phil Robertson spirit while sizing up an unsuspecting banker. In this episode: James 1, verses 5–6; James 1, verse 25; James 2, verse 26; James 3, verses 13–18; James 5, verse 14; John 1, verses 1–3; Acts 2, verses 1–47; Acts 15, verses 1–21; Acts 17, verses 16–34; Ephesians 1, verses 17–18; 1 Corinthians 12–14; 2 Timothy 3, verse 16 “Unashamed” Episode 1402 is sponsored by: Go to curehydration.com/unashamed and get 20% off your first order with promo 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 XXXXX NOT YET NOW LINKS XXXXXX — Learn more about your ad choices.

Ep 1401 | Jase Gives a Random Stranger His Number—Then Learns It Was Country Star Jordan Davis

Tue, 18 Aug 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Country music star Jordan Davis traces the surprising ways his life was connected to the Robertsons long before they ever met, from growing up on Phil’s Duck Commander videos and hearing him preach as a kid to making “Unashamed” part of his faith journey. Jordan opens up to Jase, Al, and Zach about the years he struggled to make it in Nashville, the wake-up call from his wife that forced him to rethink life on the road, and how becoming a husband and father changed the way he approaches fame, music, and the people in his audience. The guys dig into why success so often fails to deliver what it promises and how faith, family, and strong roots can keep someone grounded when the spotlight gets brighter. Learn more about the faith, family, and hard-earned perspective behind Jordan’s music at https://jordandavisofficial.com. “Unashamed” Episode 1401 is sponsored by: https://chministries.org/unashamed — Get a better solution at half the cost of traditional healthcare! https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Ep 1400 | The Robertsons Take a Sledgehammer to the Logic of ‘Open Marriage’

Mon, 17 Aug 2026 20:00:00 -0000
The abortion debate takes an unexpected turn as Jase, Al, and Zach challenge the language surrounding pregnancy, choice, and what culture has stopped treating as a blessing. Jase connects that to Mia’s diagnosis before birth and the perspective shift that changed how he and Missy faced what was ahead without minimizing the difficulty. The guys draw a provocative line between idolatry, sexual immorality, “open marriage,” and what happens when reverence for human life starts to erode.  In this episode: Jeremiah 19, verses 3–4; Jeremiah 22, verses 3–5; James 1, verses 26–27; James 2, verse 8; James 3, verse 9; James 4, verse 2; James 5, verses 5, 9, 13–20; 1 Kings 11, verse 2; 1 Corinthians 10, verses 6–10, 14–22; Matthew 5, verses 21–22; Romans 1, verse 21; Genesis 1, verse 28 “Unashamed” Episode 1400 is sponsored by: https://duckstamp.com/unashamed — Get your digital duck stamp online and keep it right on your phone!
