Ep 1396 | Jase Finds an Unexpected Gospel Movement ‘Behind Enemy Lines’

Tue, 11 Aug 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Jase heads into deep-blue territory expecting one thing and finds thousands of people who don’t fit the political stereotype, sparking a conversation about Christianity’s tendency to thrive under pressure. Kyle Thompson, host of “Undaunted Life” and “The Daily Blade,” joins the guys to confront the male loneliness crisis that leaves too many men surrounded by buddies but without anyone they can truly call when life falls apart. The guys also look at why real brotherhood requires accountability, investment, and the willingness to be known rather than simply appearing strong.

Ep 1395 | Jesus Challenges the Role Women Are Expected to Play

Mon, 10 Aug 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Al, Jase, and Zach take a fresh look at the expectations placed on women through the story of two very different sisters, including what happens when one steps outside the role her culture expected. The guys wrestle with the double standards people create for different personalities and why being “wired differently” never excuses jealousy, control, selfish ambition, or a bad attitude. They also look back at Phil’s first reaction to the idea of podcasting—a story that may make a lot more sense once the original “lost” episodes that eventually became “Unashamed” start dropping soon.  In this episode: James 3, verses 17–18; Luke 10, verses 38–42; John 11, verses 17–27; John 11, verses 32–35; James 4, verse 7; Matthew 13, verses 1–23; John 15, verses 1–8; Matthew 7, verses 16–20; Romans 12, verse 9; Matthew 10, verses 34–39 Want to watch the Lost Episodes of Unashamed, only on EKKL?

Ep 1394 | The Robertsons Take on the Christian Obsession with Being Good Enough

Fri, 07 Aug 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Christian, John Luke, Zach, and Al dig into one of Christianity’s oldest debates: whether righteousness comes from human effort or the grace of God. John Luke opens up about spending years trying to be “good enough,” only to realize that discipline and good habits could never replace a real relationship with God. Plus, Christian learns that Jase has apparently started blaming him for a few new studio grievances. In this episode: Matthew 5, verse 48; Psalm 136; James 2, verse 17; 1 Corinthians 15, verses 1–2; Romans 7, verses 24–25; John 17, verse 3; Ephesians 2, verse 8; Romans 5, verses 2 and 5; 1 Corinthians 13, verse 13 Today’s conversation is about Lesson 5 of Theology 101: The Western Theological Tradition taught by various Hillsdale Professors.

Ep 1393 | Phil Robertson Knew This Verse by Heart—Until Jase Read the Fine Print

Thu, 06 Aug 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Jase remembers the priceless moment Phil quoted one of his favorite verses, only to double-check the Bible when Jase added the terms and conditions that came next. Jase, Al, and Zach also honor the life of longtime mentor Jim McGuiggan and reflect on the responsibility of carrying forward the faith, wisdom, and example of the great men and women who came before them. Their study of James turns to the kind of heavenly wisdom that trades pride, retaliation, and hidden agendas for purity, peace, gentleness, mercy, and sincere relationships. In this episode: James 3, verses 13–18; Matthew 5, verse 8; 1 John 3, verse 3; Hebrews 11, verses 35–40; Hebrews 12, verses 4, 7, and 11; Job 3, verses 25–26; Matthew 5, verses 38–40; Philippians 4, verse 5; 1 Peter 3, verse 15 Want to watch the Lost Episodes of Unashamed, only on EKKL?

Ep 1392 | Jase Accidentally Breaks Up a Couple, Then Doubles Down on His Advice

Wed, 05 Aug 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Jase learns that his advice may have been the final straw for a young couple, but he stands by his guidance. Zach’s confiscation of a lost and found pair of sunglasses sparks a funny lesson about why parenting doesn’t end when children grow up, move away, or get married. The guys turn to James 3 to examine how selfish ambition, hidden motives, and the need to win can quietly destroy marriages and other relationships. The guys also consider the “irony of Jesus,” a carpenter who showed little interest in buildings because he came to build his church and bring God’s family back together. In this episode: Matthew 8, verses 19–20; Philippians 4, verses 11–13; 1 John 5, verse 19; James 3, verses 16–18; 1 John 3, verses 11–15; Hebrews 12, verses 11–17; Matthew 5, verses 8–9; James 1, verse 19 Want to watch the Lost Episodes of Unashamed, only on EKKL?

Get 20% off with code UNASHAMED (all caps), and watch faith- and family-friendly movies, podcasts, and more: https://ekkl.com/ Jase, Al, and Zach examine Dr. Anthony Fauci’s Senate “testimony” as a sobering warning about pride, self-preservation, and the danger of your own words catching up with you. The guys connect his public silence and private statements to James’ teaching on the tongue, showing how words can expose what is really driving the heart. Zach also offers a provocative Christian “prenup” idea as an example of the kind of faithfulness and covenant commitment believers should bring into marriage. In this episode: Numbers 32:23; James 3:2-18; James 4:4; Ephesians 4:29-32; Ephesians 5:1-2; 2 Corinthians 4:15-16; 2 Corinthians 5:10, 14-20; 2 Corinthians 6:1; Galatians 2:20; Romans 6:22-23; John 12:31; John 17:3; 1 John 1:6-8; Revelation 12:11 “Unashamed” Episode 1391 is sponsored by: https://cozyearth.com/unashamed — Get up to 20% off when you use our link and code UNASHAMED! https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Ep 1390 | Socialism & Communism Are Scams—This Bible Verse Proves It

Mon, 03 Aug 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Jase, Al, and Zach trace the roots of socialism, scarcity, and abortion back to a worldview that rejects God’s design for humanity. Zach argues that socialism runs against the Biblical command to cultivate, create, and expand, while Jase connects that same survival mindset to ancient child sacrifice and the modern lie that children are liabilities. Al examines Jesus’ warnings about Gehenna and shows how the Bible ties justice to the way people treat those made in God’s image. In this episode: Genesis 1:28; Genesis 3:15; Jeremiah 17:27; Isaiah 66:24; Matthew 1:1; Matthew 1:18-19; Mark 9:42-50; Luke 1:14; John 1:1, 14; Romans 9:5; Ephesians 2:1-3; James 1:5-27; James 5:1; 2 Peter 1:3-4; Revelation 22:1-5 “Unashamed” Episode 1390 is sponsored by: 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 1389 | What Phil Robertson Said About Zeus Will Surprise Odyssey Fans

Fri, 31 Jul 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Al, Zach, Christian, and John Luke examine why the Trinity is far more than an abstract theological debate and why the Gospel depends on Jesus being fully God. The guys trace the ancient dispute over Arius, the Council of Nicaea, and the scriptural language Christians have used to preserve the truth about the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Zach recounts Phil’s unforgettable one-liner response while standing in the ruins of Zeus’s temple. Hear from Phil himself about what it was like to stand among the ruins of fallen gods at https://youtu.be/uzC_Qf6t2HM?si=uZTuoSJ0y1uAUEpV.

Ep 1388 | A Robertson Teen Sounds the Alarm on Pornography’s Grip on His Generation

Thu, 30 Jul 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Zach’s teenage son, Bear, joins Jase, Al, and Zach for an honest look at the pornography, absent fathers, and spiritual confusion affecting his generation. Bear proves how standing openly for Jesus helped other young men at his school step forward in faith, and he reflects on the godly mentors who strengthened his relationship with Christ. The guys consider how families can break destructive generational patterns, why Solomon’s legacy warns believers to finish strong, and how Phil Robertson’s preaching still points young people toward the only source of true peace of mind. In this episode: Genesis 1:28; Proverbs 3:5; Malachi 2:15-16; Matthew 6:33; 1 Corinthians 6:18-20; James 1:14-17; James 2:14-26; James 3:7; 1 John 2:13-16; 1 John 4:15-17 “Unashamed” Episode 1388 is sponsored by: 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 1387 | Uncle Si Gets Real About the Struggle He’s Battled His Whole Life

Wed, 29 Jul 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Uncle Si lets slip the very Si-like thing he says whenever he catches his reflection in the mirror. Jase, Al, and Gordon happily promote Si to elder statesman of the Robertson clan while they trace James’ warning about gossip, slander, bitterness, and the unruly tongue. Gordon recalls the church hurt that consumed him until the Lord’s Prayer forced him to reconsider forgiveness and the way he viewed the man who wounded him. The guys discover how remembering that every person bears God’s image can transform relationships, unite unlikely people in Jesus, and replace the fear of death with real freedom. In this episode: James 1:23–24; James 3:1–18; James 4:1–3; Romans 1:26–27; Romans 2:12–14, 27; Romans 3:9–18; Romans 11:21–24; Galatians 2:15–21; Galatians 3:26–29; Galatians 4:4–8; Matthew 5:44; Matthew 6:9–15; Matthew 11:18–19; Matthew 12:22–37; Matthew 15:1–20; Matthew 21:18–32; Luke 10:25–37; Luke 15:1–32; John 3:16–17; Hebrews 2:14–18; 2 Peter 1:3–4 “Unashamed” Episode 1387 is sponsored by: 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 1386 | Jase Fears a Venomous Bite After a Bizarre Swamp Injury

Tue, 28 Jul 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Jase and Al’s uncle Gordon Dasher steps in as Zach’s replacement—and possible upgrade. The guys trace James 3 back to Genesis, uncovering how fear, survival instinct, and selfish ambition can drive people to tear one another down. Jase recounts a mysterious, painful, and perhaps venomous injury that left him contemplating his early demise. Gordon opens up about the painful realization in his own life that careless words and gossip can damage reputations, wound relationships, and deny the image of God in others.  In this episode: James 1:14–20; James 3:1–13; Genesis 9:1–6; Ephesians 2:1–11; Hebrews 2:14; 2 Peter 1:3–4 “Unashamed” Episode 1386 is sponsored by: https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

‘My Jesus’ singer Anne Wilson connects with Jase, Al, and Zach over how personal loss transformed their faith and gave them a greater urgency to point others toward Jesus. Anne’s new book, “Rebel,” inspires a conversation about turning a rebellious streak toward the Lord and standing against a culture that wants Christians to stay quiet. The guys reflect on Phil’s unashamed legacy, worshiping through tragedy, and finding lasting purpose on the other side of grief. Anne gets real about her struggle to keep her identity grounded in God rather than fame or success.  In this episode: Romans 1:16; Exodus 3:11–14; Job 1:15, 20–21 “Unashamed” Episode 1385 is sponsored by: https://bravebooks.com/unashamed — Use code UNASHAMED for 20% off your order! https://vanman.shop/unashamed — Get 15% off your first order with code UNASHAMED 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.

Fri, 24 Jul 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Al, Zach, Christian, and John Luke trace the Gospel of Mark’s surprising answer to the mystery running through all creation: Christ in you, the hope of glory. The guys connect Jesus to the kings, prophets, priests, sacrifices, and promises of the Old Testament, showing how the Bible forms one continuous story fulfilled in him. They also examine why the disciples recognized Jesus’ power but struggled to accept a Messiah who would conquer through suffering. The cross ultimately reveals the true nature of God’s strength and the radically different life his kingdom offers.

Al and Jase compare notes on cooking for Miss Kay and the family memories stirred up by her favorite foods. The guys confront a culture where everyone wants a platform, but too few people respect the responsibility that comes with teaching or influencing others. They discuss how careless words fuel pride, arguments, slander, empty promises, and hollow religion.

Martin heroically steps in when Jase’s plan to fulfill Miss Kay’s urgent request suddenly falls apart. Jase turns a chaotic weekend of surprise houseguests, strange boyfriends, and overflowing trash into a bigger conversation about what genuine faith looks like in everyday life.

Tue, 21 Jul 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Jase, Al, and Zach return to Genesis to answer the question culture and even a Supreme Court justice struggled to define, tracing what Scripture says about men, women, their differences, and every person bearing the image of God. The guys dive into church favoritism, empty “thoughts and prayers,” and the difference between simply believing in God and living out a faith that is truly alive. Zach and Jase can’t decide who’s the poorer listener, and Jase decides Zach’s new hairstyle is proof that his midlife crisis has officially arrived.  In this episode: Genesis 1:26-28; Genesis 2:18-23; Matthew 5:13-16; Matthew 22:37-40; Mark 16:20; Romans 8:19-28; 1 Corinthians 1:9; 1 Corinthians 3:9; 1 Corinthians 16:16; 2 Corinthians 6:1; 1 Timothy 2; James 2:1-26 “Unashamed” Episode 1381 is sponsored by: Upgrade your wallet today!

Mon, 20 Jul 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Jase, Al, and Zach confront the fear-driven control that keeps parents hovering long after their children need room to grow. Jase recounts the radical prayer he prayed when his own kids rebelled and explains why parents must ultimately trust God with the people they love most. The guys connect Abraham’s obedience, living faith, and the hope of resurrection to the difficult work of letting go without giving up.

Fri, 17 Jul 2026 20:00:00 -0000
Al, John Luke, Christian, and Zach consider how social media can distort people’s words, fuel misinformation, and make respectful disagreement harder. “Unashamed” opens the door to a more personal conversation with some of the show’s louder online critics. The guys contrast religions built around appeasing angry gods with the God of Scripture, who provides the sacrifice and pours out grace on his people. In this episode: Revelation 12:11; Isaiah 64:4; Isaiah 8; Acts 17:25; 2 Samuel 7; John 14:6; Galatians 3:16-17, 22, 26-29; Hebrews; 1 Corinthians 3:9; Genesis 1:26; 1 John 4:8, 10.

Ep 1378 | He Prayed to Die in Worship—and That’s Exactly What Happened

Thu, 16 Jul 2026 20:00:00 -0000
A man’s lifelong hope to die while worshiping becomes reality when he collapses during a song based on Psalm 90, giving Jase, Al, and Zach a sobering reminder to number their days. The guys contrast that peaceful view of eternity with a billionaire biohacker’s costly quest to reverse aging and escape death, then connect Phil’s final years to Al’s growing urgency to leave a lasting legacy for his family. Jase digs into James 2 and Genesis 22 to show why real faith cannot remain only a belief—it listens, trusts, and acts even when God’s plan seems impossible. In this episode: Psalm 90; James 1; James 2:14–26; Genesis 3:15; Genesis 12; Genesis 22; Joshua 2; Matthew 1; John 1; John 3:16; John 3:19–21; John 8:58; Romans 4:20–21; Romans 9; Hebrews 6; Hebrews 11 “Unashamed” Episode 1378 is sponsored by: https://chministries.org/unashamed — Get a better solution at half the cost of traditional healthcare! https://www.bruntworkwear.com/UNASHAMED — Get $10 Off at BRUNT with code UNASHAMED #Bruntpod #sponsored 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.
