Ep 1151 | Young Jase Survives Late Stage ‘Hypothermia’ & How Far is God?
At just nine years old, Jase found himself alone in the frozen woods, turning a childhood scare into his very first survival story—and his first glimpse that God was near. Al and Zach connect that experience to Paul’s sermon at Mars Hill in Acts 17, where creation itself testifies to the Creator’s closeness. It turns out that both Phil and Missy preached the same message at Mars Hill years apart without knowing it. The guys explore the gnostic belief that our flesh is inherently sinful, and why resurrection hope isn’t about escaping the body but God redeeming it.
In this episode: Romans 1, verse 20; Acts 17; John 14, verse 2; John 14, verses 16-23; John 13, verse 3; Psalm 145, verses 17–20; John 5, verses 39–40; Romans 8, verse 8; Romans 8, verse 11; 1 Corinthians 6; Galatians 5, verses 19–24; Galatians 6, verse 14; 1 Thessalonians 5, verse 23; 1 John 5, verse 4

Ep 1150 | Jase Falls Victim to a Viral Pop-up Scam & How the Spirit Makes His Home in Us
Jase manages to injure himself and lose his pants—all while the cameras are rolling. He teases a “Duck Dynasty: The Revival” moment he swears will go mega-viral, even though he can’t let the cat out of the bag yet. The guys explore how Jesus can be troubled yet sinless, how the Spirit makes His home in believers now, and why that hope steadies us when life gets chaotic. Jase’s close look at the phrase “many rooms in my Father’s house” sends Zach into an existential spiral rooted in a childhood memory.

Ep 1149 | Jase Turns a Rowdy Weekend with Willie & Uncle Si into Miss Kay’s Perfect Surprise
Willie, Uncle Si, and Jase spend a rowdy boys-only weekend filled with frogs, cards, and chaos while Missy is out of town. Jase makes a leap that supposedly ends his frog-hunting career, but he still manages to bring Miss Kay the perfect treat. Zach offers exercise tips to help injury-prone Jase that are not-so-politely ignored, and Al gets the guys back on track for John 13 and 14, where Jesus commands his followers to love one another and shows that being troubled is a natural part of the human condition.

Ep 1148 | Jase Can’t Get Over How Silly Evolution Sounds & Is the Big Bang Theory Proof of God?
Jase uses the mental gymnastics of evolutionists to crown himself “The Dinosaur Commander” and channels his inner Phil by turning this obsession into a spiritual lesson about God’s fingerprints on the universe. Zach discusses the work of famed physicist Stephen Hawking, who acknowledged that even the Big Bang points to divine intervention. The guys explore how Peter’s transformation from denier into a bold preacher of the gospel shows that redemption is possible in every sin struggle. Plus, gut health expert Kim Bright joins the show to discuss chickens, eggs, and the surprising benefits of kimchi.

Ep 1147 | Phil’s Legacy Is Celebrated by the Return of a Long-Lost Duck Commander Tradition
Jase finally tackles the classic “chicken or egg” question with a comic deep-dive and a rooster theory that points to Peter’s denial. Zach doesn’t mind when Jase gets on a roll with catchy new merchandise designs and waxes poetic about the glories of frog hunting. The guys contrast Judas’ despair with Peter’s repentance and share their plans for a long-lost Duck Commander tradition that’s being revived in Phil’s honor.

Ep 1146 | A Miss Kay Health Update & Did Jesus Love Even Judas?
Al shares an update on Miss Kay’s recovery as she enjoys her first night out to dinner with the family in a while, laughing and soaking up every moment around the table. Jase jumps in with his own food opinions, insisting his cast-iron skillet still beats any restaurant. Zach is blown away by what an app called Levels is telling him about his health, and it's a real eye-opener. The guys dig into John chapter 13, where Jesus identifies his betrayer while breaking bread with him. They wrestle with hard questions—does God hate, and did Jesus die for Judas too?—while exploring how God’s love, sovereignty, and human choice all meet at the table.

Ep 1145 | Missy’s Anniversary Gift to Jase Goes Viral & How to Share Jesus in a Small Home
Jase gets a midnight rescue from a little old lady who pointed him in the right direction, and Al’s Ireland trip turns into a no-phone nightmare. The guys crack up over Gen Z’s lightning-fast thumbs and marvel at how God can use any size home for kingdom work, sparked by Jase and Missy’s tear-filled anniversary visit to their starter house. From budget meals to countless late-night Bible talks, they share how Jesus still fills those walls with ministry memories. The guys connect themes of humble service, everyday acts of love, and the Spirit’s daily presence across thousands of years from the Old Testament to the New.

Ep 1144 | Jase Loses His Cool at the Airport & Living As the Irish Live
Al recounts his first trip to Ireland, where he navigated left-side driving, toured a castle, saw a local play, and visited an IRA pub to hear Irish rebel songs. Jase relives an airport ordeal over wireless earbuds that tested his patience and ultimately convicted his heart. Zach discovers the quickest way to get under Jase’s skin with the help of “Unashamed” producer, Madi. The guys connect these moments to John 13 exploring how Jesus’ example of washing His disciples’ feet—including Judas—redefines holiness as serving others, even when angered.

Ep 1143 | Jase Suffers an Injury from Missy’s Cast Iron Skillet & Jesus Makes the Broken Whole
Jase calls it a vacation, but it involved a back injury inflicted by Missy’s cast iron skillet, wiping out in an ice-cold Colorado stream, and limping through a metal-detecting frenzy that led to a rare 1797 coin discovery. Zach and Al explore Christ’s mission to touch the untouchable, heal the broken, and bring life to the desolate. Jase is moved to reflect on Jesus’ question, “Do you understand what I’ve done for you?” and the love that pursues us long before we pursue Him.

Ep 1142 | Jase Woos Missy with a Handyman Hack & How to See Your Purpose in God’s Design
Jase earns a “Mr. Fix-It” award from Missy when YouTube helps him rescue her from car trouble, a fate coincidentally shared by Zach when he forgets to gas up his minivan. The guys dive into the deeper meaning of the Greek word telos, exploring Jesus’ love as the ultimate purpose and fulfillment of God’s design. They connect this with Paul’s writings on knowing God and choosing life over death, highlighting our calling to glorify God and enjoy Him forever.
