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. Jase, Al, and Zach also compare Skillet’s path through Christian rock with the criticism the Robertsons faced on ‘Duck Dynasty,’ while exploring anxiety, identity, and the enemy’s distortion of God’s creation.

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.

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. Al and Zach reflect on why certain songs, foods, and places can bring decades of memories rushing back, while Jase gets unexpectedly sentimental about what first drew him to Missy. The guys explore the fleeting nature of life and the hope Christians have in the face of loss. In this episode: Psalm 90:4–6, 12; Ecclesiastes 3:11; Daniel 3:16–18, 19–25; Matthew 9:18–26; John 10:10; John 11:35; 1 Thessalonians 4:13; James 1:2–4; James 4:13–17; James 5:1 “Unashamed” Episode 1408 is sponsored by: https://preborn.com/unashamed - Visit the PreBorn! website or dial #250 and use keyword BABY to donate today. https://trees.com/ - Get an additional 20% OFF with 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
