Chapter 1: Why are we remembering Phil Robertson?
Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the Duck Call Room. We're already getting started. Look, it's a day that we all knew was coming. Uh... and nothing could prepare you for it, but we're going to talk about the old man. We're going to talk about Phil. It's why I got sunglasses on. So while I'm wearing a black shirt, I decided to go full Phil, right? Oh, Phil.
And then in that regard, I'm going to give you the man. I'm going to give you one of these, the man who perfected the thumbs up, right? Because everything you've seen posted about Phil to this point, there was, uh, a lot of it was one quote, uh, which is awesome. I'm not going to honor what he said because I can't. Don't cry. Don't cry. That's out.
Yeah. Yeah.
I'm going to honor side. I'm going to cry my eyes out today. Yeah.
Woo. That's one of them Robertson things there, Martin.
But we are celebrating the life of my older brother, Bill Robertson, the man known as the duck commander. Hmm.
I had a different relationship with Phil and it was really separate and apart from hunting because I got banned from the hunting blind for life. So we had a different kind of relationship. He led our small, our men's small group. He taught us how to be fathers. He taught us how to be good husbands. And this was all from a biblical standpoint.
And so every week we'd go in and me and a group of guys would learn and learn and learn from Phil. And I moved out to Abilene Christian University and got my degree in Bible. And I came back and Phil wanted to sit down and learn and hear everything I learned. He said, He said, did they ever get off the gospel, Mac? He calls me Mac. I said, no, Phil, they're pretty much on the gospel.
He's like, yep, all right. That's what I thought, son. That's what I thought. But our relationship was so different.
