Unashamed with the Robertson Family
Ep 1206 | The Robertsons Get Snubbed by a Rock & Roll Icon & the True Meaning of a Crown of Thorns
11 Nov 2025
Chapter 1: Who snubbed the Robertsons on their tour bus?
I am unashamed. What about you?
Welcome back to Unashamed. We're settling in here.
Chapter 2: What milestone did Zach's son recently achieve?
We're sans Maddie. She went on a cruise this week with her husband. She earned a week off, which is a great blessing. Sometimes this is no country for old men on this podcast, so I understand why people have to get away, right? Which is true.
It's actually unseasonably cool here.
Would you agree? I would agree. In fact, it was funny because when I got in last night, we've been in Idaho.
Chapter 3: What humorous story does Jase share about Bubba Watson?
Oh, wow. And it was actually colder here than it was there, which is unusual.
Well, did you see our friends that were on the podcast?
No, because they're quite a bit north of where we were.
Chapter 4: How do the Robertsons reflect on raising children who follow Jesus?
But I did ask some people about that part of Idaho because they're almost in Canada. We were down in Boise, which is the southern part of the state. Did they use the word remote? They did. They were like, when I told them the story, they were like, well, first we get it. We understand why they escaped. But then at the same time, they said they escaped to a remote area.
But the people that I met were amazing.
Chapter 5: What happened when Pat Benatar rejected the Robertsons?
Listen to this, Zach. It was a Christian school. They call it classical Christians. And it's kind of in the Hillsdale line of thinking because, you know, Hillsdale's a college, doesn't take any money from the government. That's the way this little Christian school is. And it's not super big because it's kind of out in the rural area. But they've been around since, guess when? 1908.
I thought you were going to say a long time.
That's a long time.
243.
Chapter 6: How do Jewish leaders violate their own laws in the trial of Jesus?
No, 1908, 115 years the school's been there. And there was some people there, part of a five-generation family that went to this Christian school. I mean, think about how impressive that is that you're around that long. So we raised some money for them. They had an auctioneer there. And the auctioneer looked exactly like the guy, the Mr. Wonderful from Shark Tank.
Chapter 7: What does Pilate say about Jesus' innocence?
You know what I'm talking about? The guy in the black suit. He looked just like him. I mean, when I got up there, so they called me up, you know, because I took a duck call that they auctioned off. And they also auctioned off a little dinner with Al and Lisa down here. And so they raised some money off even us being, yeah, you get in these auction deals and they pull you in.
I didn't know about it until I got there. And they were like, what would you think about this?
Chapter 8: What is the deeper meaning of the crown of thorns?
And I was like, it could be three frog hunts, Jay. So I felt a little better. No, I proceed with caution. But you get it. You know how it is. You get in the room and it gets exciting and you kind of get into it. But they were great. They raised a lot of money for this school and just salt of the earth. I've been to the West Coast now.
I think three times in the last couple of months, and I have thoroughly enjoyed the people there. They are amazing. So it was a really good trip. But it was cold when I got back.
I have fond memories of Idaho because Phil and I went on numerous duck hunts on the Snake River, and it's just absolutely stunning. And they're just ducks. They just lighten the river.
So I thought about you because we were walking down. There's a little river that's there in Boise. I can't remember the name of it. It wasn't Snake River because it was small. But I saw probably, we took some pictures, I saw probably 40 or 50 mallards, you know, and they were just chuckling around. They're feeding, you know. I guess because it's right there pretty near town.
They were wild ducks, but they just, I guess, weren't afraid.
Well, exactly.
And then there was a bunch of Canadian geese, but I guess they don't even migrate, right? I mean, they just stay up there.
Well, yeah. I mean, they're getting to a point where they quit migrating.
Because I saw a lot of them.
