Unashamed with the Robertson Family
Ep 1016 | Jase’s Son Opens up About Being a Teen in the Limelight on ‘Duck Dynasty’
Thu, 02 Jan 2025
Jase’s oldest son, Reed, opens up about what it was like to be thrust into the national limelight as a teenager when “Duck Dynasty” became a hit. Jase is proud of Reed’s spiritual growth through the last decade, and Al points out the differences in perspective between being an adult who’s responsible for a duck call business and being a carefree young man during those experiences. Reed’s recounting of his spiritual journey with the I Am Second organization is still his favorite project to date.

Chapter 1: What does it mean to be a teen in the limelight?
Reed, let me ask you a question about the hamburgers. Oh, boy. Well, we had a debate on the podcast.
This wasn't a debate. It was a really good discussion until... The phrase processed cheese.
I will say people have come out and supported Zach. I've been surprised that I've had some supporters.
Have you looked around?
What kind of cheese do you use on your cheese? American cheese.
Processed. What kind? American cheese. So Reed does it too.
Oh, interesting.
So... the American cheese debate is, is one we're having. Cause people have said, Zach has said, that's what he puts on his, but let me jump in it.
Really? You've fixed those burgers. And it was not when I partook, which has only been about twice. I had them on vacation. It was Colby Jack. Colby Jack cheese, yeah.

Chapter 2: How has Reed's cooking evolved over the years?
You're talking about paranoia gone to the heart.
That's got Phil Robertson written all over it. That's hilarious, actually.
I never heard that one.
I missed that. Did it work?
Chase, did it work?
Well, I mean, it's hard to say because it's kind of subjective. I mean, we did have our better years.
If only we could talk to the Ducks, we could ask them.
Yeah. Anyway. I could see a new law getting passed. You can't paint your fence posts. That's what I was going to tell you.
You should have thrown some white paint right around where you were at. Yeah. I mean, why not? It's not a bad idea.

Chapter 3: What is the American cheese debate about?
Yeah, 1230, 1245.
But what happened was at about 1145, because I was seeing the signs that I thought something magical could happen. And I said- Let's give them until 12. And then Phil said, well, by the time I get the boat, I mean, because I got this thing I got to go to, which I didn't mind because— And he was not happy with me about it, but I was like, Dad, you agreed to do it.
I'm just your man in the middle. I was taking the blame, but I was just the guy that set it up because Dad said, yes, I'll do it.
I didn't mind Phil allowing that time, 15 minutes, to go get the boat because I thought, well, if some ducks come— He knows how to make himself hidden. Right. And we're in timber. Yeah. But when he left, it's like the authority left. And so it was a breakdown because then God was like, well, I need to. He had something.
He had a little project.
I think his project was what he called a nature calling. Yeah. And so he started grabbing his waders. And so he goes down. We had a staircase on this blind. Still do. And so then Martin, he left for some reason. So everybody started leaving.
So I went down the decoys.
So I said, well, I'll start picking up the decoys. Now, that's where I objected. I said, no, let's wait till the motor cranks up. I fired that out there. Nobody listened. So then I look up. These ducks had done this pattern. All day. We would see them, and we had a few mallards.
Up until about nine. We hadn't seen anything in a couple hours.

Chapter 4: What lessons did Reed learn from duck hunting?
It makes me so proud that my daughter's three years old, and I can ask her, what song do you want to sing tonight? And she'll say the song, and I'll start it, and she will sing the whole thing. I mean, holy, holy, holy, she will sing the entire song. Good. You know, and David's two years old. I mean, the kid knows, you know, 15 words.
Yeah.
You know, and we sing, you know, Jesus loves me. And, you know, he'll start, he'll go, Jesus, and then he'll love me. I know. You know, everybody's singing it. And then we go, for the... And he goes, Bible! You know, I mean, he's got it, you know? And it's just... It makes you so proud. Yeah. And, you know, so that is one aspect of it is, like, I'm like, man, I mean, it just...
It softens your heart like nothing I have ever experienced.
Well, and it's nice to have a heart that is able to be softened. So we're out of time. On the next podcast, we will dive into liturgy and what that means because I saw Chase's eyes shoot up as soon as Zach said it. So it's another one of those words we'll have to deal with. So, Reed, thanks for being on. Yep, thanks for having me. See you next time on Run the Shame.
