Chapter 1: What unexpected comment did Phil make about John Crist?
I am unashamed.
What about you?
Welcome back to Unashamed. A few podcasts ago, I mentioned that we had done something we had never done before, in my knowledge, and Maddie didn't correct me, so I'm assuming I was right. That we were simul-recording. I said simul-casting, but we really weren't simul-casting. We were simul-recording our podcast in the duck car room next door. Remember me talking about that?
Yeah, I do. Well, I remember it happening.
Yeah, so.
Because I could hear Si faintly. I don't think it was registering on sound. Yeah. Because Si. They were just, every time he would be into a. He's a human noise maker. Yeah, he is. He's also an economic stimulus package when he's playing cards.
But he has a whole set of skills. Somebody came up with a top ten list of names for sight. It was like ATM, you know, credit card man. It was all these different things about money. Um, so I found out a little bit more about it. So I was going to get y'all's take on it. So apparently what they did on this episode, when we were in here,
deep into Bible study and doing what we do on The Unashamed Podcast, they were breaking down the fourth wall, is what we call it. That's a production term. Production term. That means they brought in their version of Matty, which is a guy named Hunter, to be on the podcast.
Well, you know what's weird? I've never heard Hunter ever say a word. No.

Chapter 2: What stories do Jase and John share about their best audience?
We were at the lodge back then filming. And he walks in and he's got a big hickey on his neck. He had been married a few months. He's a newlywed. And, you know, he's doing his stuff. He's laying out copy for us and made some coffee. And I'm watching him. And I thought, was he going to say something about this giant hickey on his neck just because he's sporting it?
So I thought he said nothing, which in his case, it was actually a professional way to do business, I guess. But I thought, well, he's not even going to make a joke about it because that's kind of what we do. So he sits down, he counts us down. We started in the podcast. And the first thing I said to you and dad, I was like, Did y'all notice Connor's neck this morning when he came in?
And then we spent about the next 10 minutes.
I don't even remember.
Yeah, it was... I'll never forget it. And Connor was like, Maddie, our current producer, whenever... you embarrass them, they turn a shade of red. She's doing it now. So they turn a shade of red that's like glowing red. And when I looked over at him behind the bank like Maddie is, it was a glowing red. That's strange.
And then I was like, so Connor, you can't cut that out because you're the editor, but you cannot edit what we just said about you. And I said, wait until you tell your wife. And he said, oh, I texted her while y'all were talking about it.
I mean, it's kind of different if you're married, I guess. But, you know, what are you doing?
I'm just saying, what are the odds that we would have two podcasts stretched out over six years and we've had two producers that came in with giant hickeys on their neck?
Means we need to have some private Bible studies, I guess, on not wasting time.

Chapter 4: What relationship advice was given to Hunter?
Tim is hilarious.
He would say, I mean, I've seen this joke kill a hundred times. He's like, oh, West Monroe, a great place to raise a family or bury a body. It was just, it killed everywhere, dude, everywhere.
That was your first impression of the lair. You were like, I don't know whether to bury a body. Bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing.
Sometimes I would say if I go way out in the middle of nowhere, I have a, man, it's great to be here. I got the chance to visit the home of the child I sponsor this afternoon. I've been sending $40 a month down to West Monroe. It's good to see how he's being raised.
That's hilarious.
But you want to go, like when you first walk out,
I got the benefit of the doubt I guess because I'm a comedian but it doesn't always work too because you think I did a like a marriage conference and I was right after the guy that did a presentation on the five love languages you know and there was all these couples in there they were taking notes oh it's so good oh and your quality time and your gifts and everybody's people are crying and it's the guy that wrote the book Smiley very Smiley very Smiley and I'm after it and I'm not first of all I'm not
I was like, I don't even know why I'm here. So I come out and I go, that was a great presentation. Actually, my love language is physical acts of quality touch. Dead silent, dude. Dead silent. And I go, just like you, you go, no, this is going to be a long 30 minutes.
We have that in common because I got a bit I do about sex in these – Groups, no matter whether they're sober. Does anybody really want to hear that? No, I'll say now to this section, I want to talk to you about how to have the greatest sex on this planet. Well, they all laugh. And I'm like, so you've looked at me and made a decision that I know nothing about sex.

Chapter 6: How does laughter help the Robertson family?
But he has a whole set of skills. Somebody came up with a top ten list of names for sight. It was like ATM, you know, credit card man. It was all these different things about money. Um, so I found out a little bit more about it. So I was going to get y'all's take on it. So apparently what they did on this episode, when we were in here,
deep into Bible study and doing what we do on The Unashamed Podcast, they were breaking down the fourth wall, is what we call it. That's a production term. Production term. That means they brought in their version of Matty, which is a guy named Hunter, to be on the podcast.
Well, you know what's weird? I've never heard Hunter ever say a word. No.
Well, me either.
Yeah.
That's what I found so bizarre. He's a quiet. He's very quiet. So I thought, how would he be as a podcast guest? And then he was on for part of the podcast. Then they brought my daughter, my youngest daughter, Alex, who works for Trad Lively, our production overseer that Zach is in charge of. And she does copy. And so she listens to podcasts, which, by the way,
The miserable experience for me is when she comes over to my house to do her work, Zach, I was trying to do a little Bible study. And you're listening to yourself? Well, or worse, I'm listening to the duck call room, but she listens to it at a faster speed than we actually talk.
Yeah. Well, these people, they got brain issues.
Well, I don't know what it is, but I'm like. How do you even do that? I can't even. I got so bamboozled I had to get all my stuff and go back to my bedroom to do my work because I could not listen to that.
