Ep 1169 | The Wild Childhood Rivalries That Inspired ‘Duck Dynasty’ & Who Miss Kay Loves the Most

Al, Zach, Christian Huff, and John Luke open up with some family confessions about who the true “favorite” Robertson sibling and grandchild really is. That leads to Genesis 25, where Jacob and Esau’s clash over birthright and blessing mirrors the dangers of picking favorites and the pain of sibling rivalry. The guys dig into what it means that God shows no favoritism, why Jacob and Esau’s story is really about nations more than individuals, and how grace and forgiveness will always win out. In this episode: Genesis 22; Genesis 25, verse 23; Genesis 25, verse 30; Genesis 33, verse 10; Acts 10, verse 34; Romans 9; John 1, verse 51; John 2; Hebrews 4; Isaiah 2 Today's conversation is about lesson 5 of The Genesis Story: Reading Biblical Narratives taught by Hillsdale Professor Justin Jackson.

Ep 1168 | Jase, Missy & HGTV’s Ben & Erin Napier: Refusing to Downplay Faith in Hollywood

Jase, Missy and Al welcome HGTV’s Ben and Erin Napier for a candid, funny tour of “real reality” TV—how faith shapes decisions, why small-town life resonates, and what it takes to protect your kids and your peace when cameras are everywhere. They trade early-day stories from Duck Dynasty and Home Town, convinced that every hometown has their own version of Uncle Si. A literal lightning strike punctuates the conversation as they celebrate community, craft, and the freedom to be who you are on and off camera. “Unashamed” Episode 1168 is sponsored by: https://ruffgreens.com — Get a FREE Jumpstart Trial Bag for your dog today when you use promo code Unashamed! https://cozyearth.com/unashamed —  Get 40% off sheets, towels, and more when you use our link or code UNASHAMED! https://masachips.com/robertson — Get 25% off your first order when you use code Robertson! https://andrewandtodd.com or call 888-888-1172 — These guys are the real deal.

Ep 1167 | Jase Goes Toe-to-Toe with a Pro Chef & Trusting Jesus When the World Hates You

Jase relives a wild week filled with Godly encounters, from offending a Dutch chef who still served him the best breakfast of his life to sitting beside a flight attendant who broke down in tears over faith and loss. Al meets “Almost” NFL coach Andy Reid, and the guys explore how the Spirit exposes sin, reveals righteousness, and declares judgment over the enemy. Plus, a crazy coincidental 9/11 connection shows how the Spirit turns grief into joy and equips believers to shine light in a hostile world.

Ep 1166 | The Robertsons Honor Charlie Kirk

The Robertsons process the grief of Charlie Kirk’s murder and honor him as a man who laid his life down for truth and faith. Jase, Al, and Zach call the church to pray first, then answer evil with courage, gentleness, and the Spirit’s power. The words of Paul remind us that our battle isn’t against flesh and blood, but against evil itself. The guys urge believers to keep telling the truth publicly, and live bravely as God has called us to do.  In this episode: John 15, verses 26–27; John 16, verses 1–4, 19–22; John 18, verses 4–5, 20–23; John 20, verse 15; John 21, verses 15–19, 21–23; 1 Peter 3, verse 15; Ephesians 6, verse 12; 2 Corinthians 10, verses 3–5; Luke 20, verse 38 “Unashamed” Episode 1166 is sponsored by: https://duckstamp.com/unashamed — Get your all-new digital duck stamp today.

Ep 1165 | Jase Forms a Battle Plan Against Evil in Our World

Jase, Al, Zach, and Christian Huff dig into John’s instructions for living a life of truth expressed through love in action—a message that feels more relevant than ever. Jase grades Zach’s duck-calling skills with a surprising verdict. Christian relives the panic he felt when Phil read a distressing Bible verse during his and Sadie’s wedding ceremony, and the guys counsel anyone facing troubles to draw near to God, trusting that He will light the way to the other side.

Ep 1164 | Phil Robertson's 7-Year-Old Great-Granddaughter Fact Checks Him … in Front of the Whole Church

Even some of Phil’s youngest family members are taking up his quest for Truth: 4-year-old Ruth, Zach’s daughter, gets a little mixed up about who actually died on the cross, and 7-year-old Pearl, Al’s granddaughter, has no problem fact-checking him in front of the whole church. Al, Zach, Christian Huff, and John Luke dive into Genesis 22 and show that Abraham and Isaac’s test of faith wasn’t a blind leap but a reasoned trust anchored in God’s promise. They explore worship as obedient trust—not theatrics. In this episode: Genesis 22; Hebrews 11, verses 17–19; Romans 4; James 2, verses 14–24; Acts 2, verse 38; Romans 6; 1 Corinthians 6; 2 Chronicles 3, verse 1; John 2 Today's conversation is about lesson 4 of The Genesis Story: Reading Biblical Narratives taught by Hillsdale Professor Justin Jackson.

Ep 1163 | Our Prayer for Charlie Kirk’s Family & How to Bring the Light of Truth into Dark Places

Zach leads a prayer for comfort and peace on behalf of the Unashamed team, lifting up Charlie Kirk’s family after his death. Jase and Al, joined by Christian Huff, explore John 15 on abiding in Jesus, bearing lasting fruit, and bringing the light of truth into darkness. They also trace the biblical moment when God’s sacred realm and our fallen world diverged—and how we can still bear godly fruit in a broken world. In this episode: John 15, verses 1–27; 1 John 2, verses 15–17; John 3, verses 16–21; Ephesians 5, verses 10–14; Hebrews 12; Galatians 4; Genesis 3 “Unashamed” Episode 1163 is sponsored by: https://mybrightcore.com/unashamed — Kimchi One from Brightcore – Improve your health, improve your life.

Ep 1162 | Phil Robertson's Best Unscripted Moments from Political Campaigns to Late-Night TV

Jase looks back on the night Phil crushed late-night TV while Willie froze—proof that Phil’s best moments were unscripted, unfiltered, and unforgettable. Jase embraces that same quality in himself, and Zach relives the viral endorsement Phil gave him during his run for Congress more than a decade ago. Together they explore what “perfect love” means, how to show it to each other daily, and the best ways to cultivate spiritual fruit that lasts. In this episode: John 15; John 1, verses 32–33, 38; John 14, verse 23; John 17, verse 3; Matthew 19, verses 16–21; Mark 10; Luke 18; Luke 19; Romans 5, verse 5; Romans 10, verse 13; Ephesians 1, verse 4; Ephesians 2, verses 21–22; Ephesians 4, verses 3, 13, 15 “Unashamed” Episode 1162 is sponsored by: https://donewithdebt.com — Start building the life you deserve, and talk with one of their strategists today.

Ep 1161 | Jase Lands in the Doghouse for Selling Missy’s Heirloom & What Would You Do with $1.4 B?

Jase sparks a marriage meltdown by unknowingly selling Missy’s family heirloom clock, and the fix costs him a pretty penny. Al puts on his marriage-counselor hat, and the guys agree that forgiveness—especially in marriage—is key to a successful relationship. The $1.4 billion Powerball prize gets Zach’s wheels turning, but Jase shares a godly message about the danger of choosing wealth over eternity. The guys dive into the fruit of the Spirit and what it means to abide in Jesus as the vine and the branches.

Ep 1160 | Rowdy Uncle Si Derails Jase’s Sermon & Al Referees Miss Kay & Ann’s Sisterly Squabbles

Uncle Si throws Jase off during his sermon by hollering his own brand of joyful gibberish from the front row, and Al finds himself refereeing playful sisterly squabbles between Miss Kay and her sister Ann. The guys explore the Spirit’s role as our indwelling counselor, the streams of living water flowing from believers, and how Jesus’ glorification drives out the evil one. They show how atonement opens the door to God’s presence dwelling within us, making us living pieces in His new creation.
