Unashamed with the Robertson Family

Jase hijacks an eight-hour road trip with a nonstop deep dive sparked by one simple question, and Al reveals the surprising and touching secret hidden in the walls of his home for decades. The guys unpack how ordinary people become the place where heaven and earth meet, why forgiveness is spiritual warfare, and why anointing still carries real power. The guys close with a prayer for Zach and for listeners facing illness.

Christian Huff awkwardly opens up a little too much about life at home, but John Luke quickly tops it by declaring he has not just one adversary, but tons of low-level foes, sparking a dramatic debate about what it means to trust God with the fate of our enemies. The guys move into the unsettling world of Saul’s downfall, the “ghostwife” of Endor, and the moment Scripture proves the dead can indeed speak. David’s restraint, Saul’s unraveling, and the haunting echo of Samuel’s return all point to the deeper truth about spiritual warfare, leadership, jealousy, and trusting God’s timing.

Jase, Al, and Zach are joined by bestselling author and podcaster Lisa Harper for one of the most emotionally honest conversations ever about lifelong shame, feelings of inadequacy, and adoption highs and lows. Lisa opens up about the heartbreak and long waiting that marked her adoption journey and the exhausting habit of performing spiritually instead of resting in God’s presence.

Uncle Si performs a miracle healing that ends up being more helpful to Jase than anyone could have predicted years later. The guys and Missy reminisce about Phil flexing his creative muscles with his hunting videos, especially the moments when Jase clashed with the cameraman—usually to the delight of everyone else in the blind.

Miss Kay declares she’s served her time on kitchen duty, so it’s up to the family to pick up where she left off—sending the family on a quest to resurrect her legendary chocolate cream pie, complete with missing steps, blunt reviews, and classic Robertson food snobbery. Jase admits to a former unhealthy addiction that frustrated Missy to no end. The guys shift from kitchen chaos to Scripture as they explore Jesus’ resurrected body, what the importance was of his eating fish after rising from the dead, and what that promised future means for our own bodies and hope today.

Jase reveals how a self-inflicted head mishap left him dizzy and forgetting things for days, and the chaos only worsened when he found himself accidentally trapped in the middle of a small-town parade he never meant to join. A veteran’s gripping war stories demonstrate how vulnerable our bodies may be and how powerful it can be to live an indestructible life in Jesus.

Al and Zach realize Willie’s long-standing penchant for sibling rivalry didn’t stop with his generation as Christian and John Luke face off along their shared property lines. The guys revisit Phil’s tongue-in-cheek warning about a notorious manhood killer  that’s apparently caused years of collateral damage to Robertson landscaping.

Jase treats a fallen yard Santa like a full-blown crime scene, sparking an investigation that leads the guys into Matthew’s account of the original resurrection cover-up. They break down the guards’ panicked story, the bribe that launched history’s first disinformation campaign, and why sin can make even smart people believe the most irrational explanations. Al walks through what John and Peter actually “saw” at the empty tomb and how the evidence pushes every person to confront the truth for themselves.

Zach explores Elon Musk’s prediction that work will one day become obsolete thanks to artificial intelligence, and the guys contrast the idea with the vocation God gave humans from the beginning.

Jase, Al, and Zach respond to an emotionally raw husband who finally confessed his lifelong porn problem and is now facing the painful fallout. The guys talk honestly about how secrets choke intimacy, why confession hurts before it heals, and how hiding only multiplies the damage that sin has already done. They pivot into Phil’s old “soul-sleep” way of describing death and compare it to Jesus’ promise of paradise and Paul’s glimpses of the world to come. The guys land on why believers can face both confession and death with confidence: in Christ, neither your darkest secret nor your final breath gets the last word.
