EP 1374 | The Robertsons Present the Number One Greatest Proof Ever of God’s Existence

Fri, 10 Jul 2026 20:00:00 -0000
The greatest proof that God is real may be far simpler than most people expect. Zach recalls dismissing his mom’s uncomplicated answer about seeing God in creation, only to hear one of the world’s leading Christian philosophers give nearly the same response the very next day. Al, Christian, and John Luke join him to examine how nature, Scripture, reason, and faith work together to reveal who God is, why blind faith is not biblical faith, and how believers can keep growing beyond shallow social media theology. The guys laugh about Jase promising a 15-minute sermon when he's famously long-winded and come to the realization that announcing only the winner’s first name could leave multiple Mirandas wondering if they're the winner of the 'Unashamed' studio visit giveaway.   In this episode: 1 John; James 1–2; Genesis 1; John 1; Romans 1:20; Hebrews 11; Ecclesiastes 3:11; Psalm 139 Today’s conversation is about Lesson 1 of Theology 101: The Western Theological Tradition.

Ep 1373 | Phil Robertson’s Daughter Phyllis Looks Back on the Long Road to the Robertson Family

Thu, 09 Jul 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Phil's daughter Phyllis opens up about the story behind her book, I Never Knew, and the hardships she faced during the 44 years before her reunion with the Robertson family. Phyllis reflects on the difficult and sometimes dark road that shaped her, the calling that led her into counseling children and families, and the surprising tenderness Phil showed her during the six years they spent together before his passing. Jase and Al connect her story to their own family wounds, the way counseling helped their marriages and children, and the biblical picture of moving from fear into sonship through Christ.  In this episode: Romans 8:13-17; Acts 17; Philippians 3; James 1; 1 Corinthians 13; Psalm 139; John 14-17; Genesis 3 “Unashamed” Episode 1373 is sponsored by: https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Ep 1372 | An ‘Unashamed’ Boots-on-the-Ground Report from America 250 Goes Sideways

Wed, 08 Jul 2026 20:00:00 -0000
The America 250 celebration gives the guys a patriotic jump-start as Zach brings back a firsthand report from Washington, D.C., including a moving visit to the Museum of the Bible, run-ins with secret service, and the world’s largest-ever fireworks show. Jase, Al, and Zach connect America’s story to the deeper foundation of Scripture, tracing how God’s Word has endured through history and still points people toward the source of real freedom. Jase follows a biblical trail showing how Jesus fulfills the 10 words of creation, the 10 commandments, and the “I am” statements that reveal his divine identity.  In this episode: James 2:8; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4; James 2:22-23; Matthew 5:17; Luke 24:44; John 1:1, 14; Genesis 1:3, 6, 9, 11, 14, 20, 24, 26, 28-29; Exodus 3:2-6, 14; John 6:35; John 8:12, 24, 28, 58; John 10:7, 11; John 11:25; John 14:6; John 15:1; John 3:14, 19-21; John 12:32; James 4:10; Philippians 2:8-9; Hebrews 13:8; John 17:5; Matthew 28:18-20; Hebrews 10:28-29 “Unashamed” Episode 1372 is sponsored by: https://cozyearth.com/unashamed — Get up to 20% off when you use our link and code UNASHAMED!  https://chministries.org/unashamed — Get a better solution at half the cost of traditional healthcare! 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 1371 | Jase Opens Up About Why One Child’s Story Became His Family’s Mission

Tue, 07 Jul 2026 20:00:00 -0000
The Robertsons clash with modern culture’s anti-family message as Jase and Zach open up about the children who changed their families forever and the biblical calling to care for widows, orphans, and the vulnerable. Jase shares the Walmart bathroom prayer moment that reminded him how “Unashamed” is reaching whole families. The guys connect James’ definition of pure religion to Jesus’ warning about protecting children, the spiritual danger of giving evil a foothold, and why God’s design for family still stands against the isolation of the world. In this episode: James 1; 1 John 4; 1 John 2:15-17; 1 John 5; Jeremiah 22:1-5; Jeremiah 19:1-6; Genesis 1:28 “Unashamed” Episode 1371 is sponsored by: https://www.wildalaskan.com/UNASHAMED — Get $35 off your first box of wild-caught, sustainable seafood delivered right to your door. https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Ep 1370 | ‘Unashamed’ Returns to the Place That Helped Launch ‘Duck Dynasty’

Mon, 06 Jul 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Jase and Zach pipe in from the very first Walmart edition of ‘Unashamed,’ complete with sardine breath, Nashville traffic, and a surprisingly full-circle flashback to the days when ‘Duck Dynasty’ took over Walmart aisles. Al owns up to the embarrassing mistake he made about a roadside motel sign. Jase explains why he walked away from an event that wanted him to speak but leave Jesus out of the message. The guys continue their study of James with a deep dive into hearing versus obeying, the house built on the rock, the perfect law that gives freedom, and the love of God that restores our identity in Christ.

Ep 1369 | The Hard Truth I Needed to Hear from Someone I Trusted

Fri, 03 Jul 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Al, Zach, Christian, and John Luke wrap up Ancient Christianity with stories about sermon critiques, mispronounced words, and the kind of mentorship that only works when trust has been earned. Al shares how a gift from his granddaughter brought Phil’s larger-than-life legacy to mind, while John Luke explains how he turned the Roman Empire into a summer camp lesson about Jesus, persecution, and the kingdom of God. The guys dig into Augustine’s impact on the Trinity, the incarnation of Christ, and why God must reveal himself before we can truly know him.  In this episode: John 1:1; Genesis 1:28; John 17:3; John 14:6; Ephesians 3:10; Luke 15; Psalm 48:1-8; 1 John 4:8-10; Romans 1-2; Romans 7:24-25 Today’s conversation is a recap 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.

Ep 1367 | Jase Crashes a Stranger’s Cookout & Gets Stumped by the Crunchy Burger Recipe

Wed, 01 Jul 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Jase breaks character and accepts a stranger’s dinner invite, only to discover a secret ingredient that leaves him confused and intrigued. Zach puts to bed the rumors of his questionable origins, and Al reflects on Lisa’s story of spending 33 years seeing herself through a broken lens before one major turning point helped her understand her life in a whole new way.

Ep 1366 | Phil Robertson Caught an Intruder at 3 A.M. & Sent Him into Full Retreat

Tue, 30 Jun 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Phil’s late-night motel room mix-up became an instant Robertson classic when a stranger chose the wrong door to break into during an old Duckmen road trip. Jase and Al admit there’s one long-running Robertson family tradition they’ve never had any desire to participate in, even after years of being surrounded by it. Jase faces a real-life test of James’ command to be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry. The guys dig into the transfiguration of Jesus, why God’s command to “listen to him” still matters, and how hearing the words of Jesus should lead directly to obeying them. In this episode: John 10:10; James 1:5; James 1:19-22; Luke 9:28-36; John 5:39-40; John 6:32-35; Luke 24:44-47 “Unashamed” Episode 1366 is sponsored by: https://fastgrowingtrees.com — Get 20% your first purchase when using the 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.

Ep 1365 | The Robertsons React as JD Vance Turns Iran Headlines into a Big Jesus Moment

Mon, 29 Jun 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Al, Jase, and Zach admit that James’ command to be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry hits close to home, especially in a family where everyone learns early to speak up or get left out. The guys react to JD Vance turning questions about Iran into a public proclamation of Jesus, faith, and becoming the kind of man he knew he couldn’t become without God. Jase connects a brutally honest New Orleans story and Little Man’s spaghetti-night revelation to the aroma of Christ, the goodness of Jesus, and the kind of faith that moves from words into action. In this episode: 2 Corinthians 2:14–17; 2 Peter 2:22; 1 Peter 4:11; John 14; John 16; Colossians 1:15–23; Genesis 4; Romans 8:29; James 1:18–27; Proverbs 17:27; Psalm 103:8; Exodus 34:6; 1 Corinthians 8; Deuteronomy 6 “Unashamed” Episode 1365 is sponsored by: https://chministries.org/unashamed — Get a better solution at half the cost of traditional healthcare! https://bravebooks.com/unashamed — Use code UNASHAMED for 20% off your first order! https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Ep 1364 | John Luke’s Snake-Handling Lesson Backfires in Front of Terrified Campers

Fri, 26 Jun 2026 20:00:00 -0000
John Luke’s attempt to turn a four-foot rat snake into a calm teaching moment for campers goes sideways fast, leaving the kids panicked and John Luke woozy at the sight of his own blood. Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian use Augustine’s story to dig into why modern people are so restless, why getting what we want still doesn’t satisfy us, and how our appetites quietly train our hearts. The guys contrast Augustine’s confession of sin with today’s culture of self-worship. Al points to history’s examples of Christianity’s tendency to bring order, healing, and hope out of cultural chaos. In this episode: Romans 7, verses 21–25; Romans 8; 1 Corinthians 9, verses 24–27; Philippians 2, verses 5–11; Genesis 1, verse 31 Today’s conversation is about Lesson 11 of Ancient Christianity taught by visiting Hillsdale Professor of History Kenneth Calvert.

Ep 1363 | Willie & Korie Robertson’s Baby Announcement Is Big News — and Totally Fake

Thu, 25 Jun 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Willie and Korie get dragged into a bizarre AI-generated baby hoax, and Al, Zach, and Jase dig into the creepy new world of artificial intelligence, from fake relationships and AI “friends” to people using chatbots to justify sin. The guys connect the modern AI echo chamber to James’ warning about deception, and Jase points to Cain, Abel and the Holy Spirit as the difference between artificial intelligence and real life with God. In this episode: James 1, verse 11; John 8; Genesis 1, verse 28; Isaiah 40, verses 3–31; James 1, verse 18; Genesis 4; Romans 8, verses 1–23; Ephesians 1, verses 13–14; John 14–16; 1 Peter 1, verse 24; Proverbs 3, verse 9; Proverbs 8; Leviticus 23, verse 10; Exodus 23, verse 19 “Unashamed” Episode 1363 is sponsored by: https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Ep 1362 | One Parenting Habit That Makes God Feel Real to Kids

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Jase, Al, and Zach dig into the parenting rhythms that plant God’s word in kids early, including the moment a Jase’s godson thought God was too far away to hear him pray. Zach connects sin to a false version of reality that promises freedom but produces death. Al reflects on Liam Neeson’s iconic movie “Taken,”  and the scene that illustrates the perfect picture of what it means to be a man of your word, in truth and action. In this episode: John 1, verse 1; James 1, verses 14–18; James 1, verse 21; James 2, verse 26; Genesis 1, verse 3; Psalm 33, verse 6; Psalm 148, verse 5; John 4, verses 46–54; Psalm 92, verses 5–15; Isaiah 55, verses 8–12; Ephesians 3, verses 16–19; Matthew 18, verses 1–14; Luke 15, verses 1–32; Revelation 12, verse 9; Matthew 22, verses 23–33 “Unashamed” Episode 1362 is sponsored by: https://meetfabric.com/unashamed — Join the thousands of parents who trust Fabric to help protect their family. https://rocketmoney.com/unashamed — Join Rocket Money and let them help you reach your financial goals faster. https://unashamedgold.com — Get a free 2026 Gold & Silver Guide and a no obligation consultation!  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 1361 | Willie Robertson’s Unaired ‘Duck Dynasty’ Snake Scene Erupted into Blood & Chaos

Tue, 23 Jun 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Jase rehashes the behind-the-scenes ‘Duck Dynasty’ snake bite that never made the show, including the 9-fingered snake handler and Willie streaming blood on camera. Al’s visit to Bella’s Duck Commander office leads the guys into a bigger reflection on Phil’s tiny original duck call shop and the evidence that Phil’s mission has now lasted four generations. The guys explore the dignity of honest work, why every job can become a platform for Jesus, and how Christians are needed in the marketplace just as much as they’re needed in the church. In this episode: Genesis 9; Colossians 3, verse 23; James 1, verses 11–19; Acts 17, verse 26; Revelation 3, verse 11; Revelation 4, verse 10; 1 Corinthians 9, verses 24–25; 1 Corinthians 10, verses 11–13; Philippians 4, verse 1 “Unashamed” Episode 1361 is sponsored by: https://trustandwill.com/unashamed — Get 20% off and protect your legacy today!  https://www.stopboxusa.com/unashamed — Get firearm security redesigned and save 10% off @‌StopBoxUSA with code UNASHAMED #stopboxpod https://helixsleep.com/unashamed — Get 20% off sitewide and make sure you enter our show name after checkout so they know we sent you! 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 1360 | The Robertsons Clash With Entitlement Culture That Turns Success Toxic

Mon, 22 Jun 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Al, Jase, and Zach call out the entitlement mindset that turns gifts into demands, and Zach traces how a me-first mindset can make comfort and success feel empty. The guys connect that cultural trap to Solomon’s downfall, showing what happens when wealth, power, women, and success capture our desires. Jase takes aim at Western civilization's obsession with actors and celebrity culture, asking why we celebrate people for pretending to be someone else while ignoring the same kind of hypocrisy when in real life. In this episode: James 1, verses 2–18; Matthew 5–7; 1 Kings 3, verses 5–15; 1 Kings 4, verses 29–34; 1 Kings 11, verses 1–13; Deuteronomy 17, verses 14–17; Romans 12, verses 1–2; Ephesians 4, verses 11–16; John 1, verses 35–39; John 4, verses 19–26; Psalm 37, verses 1–40; 1 Peter 2, verses 1–3; Numbers 12, verse 3 “Unashamed” Episode 1360 is sponsored by: https://cozyearth.com/unashamed — Get up to 20% off when you use our link and code UNASHAMED!  https://homechef.com/unashamed — Get 50% off and free shipping on your first box plus free dessert for life! 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 1359 | From Constantine to Miss Kay: Faithful Mothers Shape the History of the World

Fri, 19 Jun 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian connect the hidden influence of faithful mothers from Constantine’s mom to Miss Kay with the way one unknown believer can change history through a single faithful conversation. The guys look at Constantine’s complicated legacy, from the Nicene Creed and the spread of Christianity to his violent family history and deathbed baptism. They also connect ancient Rome’s struggle over faith, power, and paganism to modern America’s temptation to make Jesus smaller than politics, party loyalty, personal peace, or cultural identity. In this episode: 1 John 4, verse 8; 1 John 4, verse 10; John 1, verses 1–14; Philippians 2, verses 5–11; 1 John 2, verses 18–23; 2 John 1, verse 7; John 17, verse 3; Acts 17, verse 24 Today’s conversation is about Lesson 10 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.

Ep 1358 | Matt Chandler & the Robertsons Call Out the Fake Gospel of Instant Fixes

Thu, 18 Jun 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Jase, Al, Zach, and Christian sit down with Matt Chandler, lead pastor of The Village Church and author of “Becoming Like Jesus,” to talk about Matt’s rough childhood, the church camp that changed his life, and why following Jesus is usually slower, messier, and more painful than people expect. Jase remembers taking a beating instead of fighting back and watching the man who attacked him later come to church wanting to hear about Jesus. The guys also dig into why suffering can expose what God wants to heal, and why the church is still the place where flawed people learn to love — and sometimes simply tolerate — one another. In this episode: Luke 15, verse 17; Hebrews 12, verse 2; Isaiah 61, verse 3; Matthew 5, verses 3–12; Psalm 27, verse 4; 1 Corinthians 15, verses 1–2; 1 Corinthians 6, verses 9–11; Exodus 13, verses 17–18; Romans 5, verses 3–5; James 1, verses 2–4 “Unashamed” Episode 1358 is sponsored by: https://chministries.org/unashamed — Get a better solution at half the cost of traditional healthcare!  https://vanman.shop/unashamed — Get 15% off your first order with code UNASHAMED https://www.wildalaskan.com/UNASHAMED — Get $35 off your first box of wild-caught, sustainable seafood delivered right to your door. 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!

Wed, 17 Jun 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Al, Jase, and Zach reflect on Al’s powerful visit to a Louisiana prison, where hundreds of men gathered to hear the Gospel and a group of fathers prepared for a long-awaited visit with their children. Al talks about following in Phil’s footsteps through prison ministry, the unexpected Robertson cousin he met behind bars, and the hope men can still find when they choose a new future for their families. Jase also shares the wild story of a duck hunter whose run-in with an alligator became the rock-bottom moment that sent him back to God.

Ep 1356 | My First Prayer Was Darker Than Most People’s Worst Nightmare

Tue, 16 Jun 2026 20:00:00 -0000
An Iranian refugee puts a human face on the fight for freedom from Iran’s regime as author, speaker, and pastor David Nasser joins Al, Zach, and Jase to tell the story of his family’s escape from Iran after the 1979 revolution. David describes the terrifying moment soldiers dragged his father away, their desperate escape plan, and the loneliness he felt after arriving in America as an outsider. But a group of Christians serving as volunteer waiters in his father’s restaurant changed everything, eventually leading David and his whole family to Jesus. The guys also discuss the difference between Iran’s people and its tyrannical regime, the courage of underground Iranian Christians, and why freedom is a gift Americans should never take for granted. In this episode: John 3, verse 16; John 14, verse 6; 2 Corinthians 5, verse 21; Romans 2, verse 4; Mark 8, verse 36; Romans 12, verse 2; 1 Peter 2, verse 9; 1 John 4, verse 8; Ephesians 2, verse 14; Esther 4, verse 14 “Unashamed” Episode 1356 is sponsored by: https://preborn.com/unashamed — Visit the PreBorn! website or dial #250 and use keyword BABY to donate today. https://www.covesmart.com/unashamed/ — Use code UNASHAMED at checkout for up to 70% off your first order! 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.
