All Things Duck Dynasty: You Asked, We Answered! | Sadie Robertson Huff & Christian Huff | Korie Robertson

What's up? Well, that's good fam. I hope you're having a great week, but it's about to get so much better because we have two of everyone's favorite guests back on the podcast. We have my mom. We have Christian. I don't know where that noise came from, but we are talking all things Duck Dynasty. Is that like a high-pitched drumroll? Yeah, it was supposed to be a drumroll, but it came after I announced your name, so it shouldn't make much sense. Speaking of Duck Dynasty, we have the new biggest Duck Dynasty fan in our house, Heidi James. Oh my goodness, that's so cute. I heard you've been watching lately. Yes, we started from season one, episode one, because when we were watching the revival on Amazon, it rolled right into the news. It went back into just the first episode, and we were cracking up. Really? Oh my gosh. First of all, I don't remember it like that. You had an epiphany. I had an epiphany. I was thinking about how people say that's not the flex you think it is. Y'all might not. Are y'all in this culture? I've heard that before, but in what way? So when you post something and you're bragging about something, but they're okay to me before. He's used that one. I don't think I've ever told you that. All your flexes are pretty cool. Thank you. He's redeeming that. Heidi has some weird flexes. I do have weird flexes. What was my weird flex the other day? Oh, this was okay. Maybe quasi-inappropriate, but it's not inappropriate. It's not inappropriate because you said it was inappropriate. I was meaning this genuinely. Okay, we need to know what is this. She thought you hyped it up way too much. This is not a flex. Every single time I'm playing cards and people always get confused, like, is that a six or a nine? I always know what it is. I always know it's a six. I'm like, that's not cool. I always know it's a nine. I think we're flexed, but okay. Thank you. I was like, that's not cool. I was like, I get like, when we're playing cards, we're like, how can you not tell if that is a six? You said it so seriously. You were like, I can literally tell and I'm like, okay. I'm like, that's nothing to brag about. She's four. No, like, it was like straight confidence. Like, that was cool. Well, she does claim Dixlexia, so maybe that is something that she's like proud of because you can tell a six or a nine. That's a fun one. Okay, that's a good one. It led to like a disagreement. That is a weird flex, but okay. Well, because I was like, because you are the worst at it. You always think it's a nine when it's a six and I'm like, how can you not tell? And then everyone at the table is debating and the whole time I'm like, I know. I know what it is. It's a six. Okay, but then that led to an argument in what way? Not even an argument. It was just a disagreement. It wasn't an argument. It wasn't, no, it wasn't just, you said a weird flex. It was a weird flex, but okay. But you were like, that's not impressive. And I was like, it is impressive. It is impressive if everyone else struggles with it and you don't. When everyone's like, wait, is it and then you have to check and where's the line? I'm like, I've known this whole time. Or you're comparing it to something that I do. Yeah, no, you said something that was a weird flex, but okay. But I did not think it was. And you didn't think it was a weird flex. You were like, that is impressive. I was like, no, that's just as weird. Okay, well, what's that? Oh, he said, every time I let someone go in front of me, like if someone walks in front of me, or no, no, he said, every time when someone lets me walk in front of them, whenever they're driving and they're letting the passenger have the right way, I always wait. He said, every time I wait when I say thank you. I wasn't like flexing about that. I don't like it when you like come to an abrupt stop and the person walks and they don't acknowledge you stopping them. Yeah, I always do a little wipes. I think that is very courteous. I do it if I'm driving. If I'm driving and if I'm walking, if I'm walking across the street, someone stops, I always wait. It's very kind. I think that's awesome. It was more so just like, it was as if like, I am a gold star human. But I wasn't like flexing about that. You cannot compare your six, nine, okay. Those are good ones. Speaking of on-trin, honey has been going six, seven, and I'm like, how did that make it to a four-year-old girl? Wow. Trends are crazy. Back to the point. So when you post something that you're kind of bragging about and then people say like, that might not be the flex you think it is. Like I'm saying I can always tell a six and a nine and Christian's like, that's not the flex you think it is. So not in a negative way, because I know when I say like, oh, I'm from Doug Dynasty, people are like, oh, that's so cool. Like people love that because people love Doug Dynasty. It's just that in my head when I said that, I thought people had a perspective of Doug Dynasty that was different than the one that they might have. I'm thinking they're thinking like, oh, sweet faith-based family, like, you know, praying around a table. I'm not thinking dissecting a squirrel. I'm not thinking the anatomy of a crawfish. I'm not thinking like, cleaning a frog. Yes. And I was watching that and I was like, oh, okay. When people think of the Robertson family, they see that. Okay. That was more the epiphany I was having. Well, I do think that because I always say, like, I think people related to us and related to our family, which I think that is true too. But then when you watch from the old episodes, you're like, oh no, they actually also were watching us because they thought we were like crazy. I thought they were laughing with us. I think they're laughing at us. I think they're laughing with us, but I do think they think that like we're odd. I mean, you're a memo. Memo K literally carried a squirrel in her carry-on bag to New York City. Yes. Like, that's not normal. Yes. But to us, because when you're in it, it feels normal. Yes. I didn't, I like, I really didn't think they were that weird. Yeah. Growing up. I felt the same way because I was like, that's just what they do. It's when you're in it. And you're in it. It feels normal. Yes. And now like, because people are, oh, this generation is different. I'm like, we're really not that different. I was like, oh yeah, we are really different. Yeah. That's different. Okay. So it's just been hilarious. It's like watching them bat because by the time, you know, Pebble Phil in the later years of his life was like so on mission for the gospel. So like, I saw him in the context of like preaching a lot, podcasting a lot. I also never went hunting. So like, I didn't see that side. I saw like, just like the passionate believer side. And so just watching him go after these beavers and like, shoot up the radio that they were listening to size sleep sounds or bathtub sounds on. Like just like crazy. It just was such a different perspective and it was so hilarious. So we've been loving to watch and honey the other night. So this is just kind of funny. But when I read books to them at night, they asked me to do in a British accent. So I give it my best. But the other night, they were like, will you read it in Uncle Si's voice? And so I gave it my best shot and my voice was literally horse. That is so funny. Well, I will say going back, dad and I have bought it sometimes like it will just catch it on TV. Yeah. One of the old episodes and we're like, that was actually really funny. You know, not to flex, but it was actually really funny. It was funny. It was funny. The world agrees. That's not a weird, like that's a good flex. Also on TikTok, one of my videos that recently got a lot of attention was when I said on the podcast recently that dad went by Jess most his life. He wouldn't know that. And people don't know that. Yeah. That was crazy. So should we tell that story? Yeah, you married Jess. I married a Jess. Yes. So his name is Willie Jess. When you married him, he was still going by Jess. Yes. He was Jess when I was little. I thought it was before that. Okay. I don't know. On his 30th birthday, that was when I officially, like I put Willie on his birthday invitation. And I was like, we're officially calling him Willie. Like I had to, it was hard for me because I called him Jess all grown up. So for people who don't know this, his name is Willie Jess. That's his full name. His mom always called him Jess. His dad always called him Willie or Will. Phil actually called him Will a lot too. Granny called him Willie Jess. So he kind of went by all the names, but mostly like for us and the youth group, you know, we are all in that school or whatever, he went by Jess. Then when we went to college, you know how in college your first name, you know, it's a confusing thing because the professors will call you by your first name. So he kind of did both. Like he said he had one professor that would call him William, one class and Jess and the other, he didn't realize it was the same person, you know. So it was, he kind of went back and forth in college a little bit, but still I called him Jess. I never called him Willie. Your journals are to Jess. Oh yeah, absolutely. And so then whenever he came back to work with the family business, that's whenever he was like officially like, okay, when he was right around 30, he came back to work for a commander. How old was he when I was born? 25. I was saying I was around eight. I thought maybe I was like five, maybe six. I remember being at ski school and I wrote Jess and then I was like, can I change it to Willie? To Willie? Oh sweet. I remember that, but I would have been in ski school at six. Yeah. Yeah, probably like six. Jess and Jess, are they're so similar? Well, that's what happened. It was Jason, wait, Jason, Jess and Jeff. Yes. When he came back to work for the family business, when he was like right around 30, it was Jason, Jess and Jeff. And it was just confusing. And he was just like, I want to go about Willie. And I was like, I don't think I can do that. I mean, I've called you Jess my whole life. I married Jess. I don't even know. But then it was awkward because he would be working and people would call him Willie and I'd say Jess and they'd be like, who's Jess? And so I was like, okay, I have to do this. So on his 30th birthday, I sent out an invitation and I put Willie and I think I wrote a little poem or something and I was like, we are calling him officially Willie from this point on. I need to go find that. And you have the W. And now it had a J. It looked different. That would be weird. Yeah. That is so funny. My grandmother. My mother. My mother. Yes, she still can't just call him Willie. She says Willie Jess. Well, she also calls Christian Chris. Yeah. I don't know if that's being sweet or if she just forgets my name. No, I think she thinks it's sweet. Like, she calls you Chris. I think it's so cute. I love it. But I just, I was never sure. Yeah. So cute. I love it. Every once in a while, we'll run into somebody from Willie's like younger years that will call him Jess. And it's like, I feel like they are like very, very much like they want to say Jess. Because they're like, that's how we knew you back. It shows them. I knew when people call it to me, I was like, I knew your daddy Jess. I'm like, you knew him in high school. Yeah. Which this is very inspiring because Liv Original, we've always gone by L.O. L.O. Everything. And now people have been calling it L.O. So I've been trying to meet him where they're at. It is so hard for me to say L.O. all the time. Because when you've called something L.O. for so long, even though it's just like a simple change to L.O. But for you, like Willie to Jess, is it quite different? So it's impressive. It's very biblical. Lots of people in the Bible. I know. Well, that's what JP and I were talking about on the podcast because he was wanting to start going by Jonathan, right? And I was like, you can do it. He was like, I don't know. I was like, no, you can do it. Willie was Jess. And so it was funny. Anyway, it's hard to say that. So speaking of birthdays, we were talking about, I want to talk to you about the season two is out right now. It's coming out on A&E, but you can also watch it on Prime. It will eventually be on Hulu. But a lot of people are asking what our favorite moment of filming was or what are some funny behind the scenes moments. And I have to say dad's birthday party, the whole cake situation for those who haven't seen, we decided that we were all going to make a cake for dad for his birthday. And it was kind of like a competition who could make the best cake. Not going to name any names, but a lot of people didn't believe in me. Okay. A lot of people didn't think I had it in me. And to be honest, I didn't really believe that much of myself. But I know dad and I know what he likes. And we're so similar. So similar. In fact, just the other day at a party, dad was making pizzas for everybody. He said, does anybody have any requests? And I said, could you do pepperoni, sausage, sweet jalapenos and mushrooms? And he said, that is exactly what I want. And so we shared a pizza. It's funny. We're very similar in what we like and the people we are. And so I knew I could nail the flavors based off what he likes. However, I don't have much skill when it comes to baking or just like creating art like my sisters do. So they crush it on their cakes. I went for flavor profile. The flavor profile. The cake was as Bella said, ugly. And I won. Well, here's the thing. My sisters, you might think it was just for TV. Like they were mad at me, but they were legitimate. Like it was awkward. We talked about it as a family for a while. And then we couldn't talk about it. Yeah, that's what, yeah, exactly. We talked about it. But then it became like such a thing that like it was, they couldn't talk about it. I always say after that I was like, whoa, I knew our guys were competitive, but our girls are competitive in the family. Girls seem more competitive than the guys. I don't know about more. I mean, sometimes I didn't know how competitive. And now I'm seeing all Bella's interviews and Bella's cut throat. Here's the thing. Here's the thing. Who is still talking about the competition though? That's true. Bella and Mary Kate. The girls. Me and Jacob are so talking about pickleball. Yeah, that's true. Y'all are still rehashing. Me. I try to avoid it. I literally, Sadie got to the point where she was like, I kind of wish I had no one. I was like, no, that's not. I did wish I had one. You should be proud of your win. Every time you bake a cake, I think it's just, it's like a, it'll take you back to that, that feeling of inadequate, but also I'm like, that's on them. They need to get over it. They lost. You won. That's the way it is. I will say it was surprising. This is why it's surprising about you. But I get it. I'm not surprised. Here's the thing. Here's the thing. Sadie was my, my child and teenager that I used to say, like she wouldn't even make a sandwich. That girl did not cook in our house at all. Like she did not, if she was hungry, she figured out a way to get somewhere to get food. She did not. I went with aunts and uncles. If y'all weren't cooking, I was like, anybody on the street going somewhere tonight? She did. She did not make a sandwich in her life, but now you are a really good cook. Thank you. Like she has become a really good cook. Not just baking, but everything else. You cook for us at night and it was so good. Actually last week I cooked for y'all, John and Camaricate and Will and Abby and I can't believe that. I'm so impressed by that. I can't believe that. But that also kind of comes out of competition a little bit because one night, okay, well Bella's a really good cook and I love that Bella's a good cook. I love whenever she invites us over, but Bella doesn't often, you know, say, Hey, I'm going to cook for everybody. But when she does, it is like top tier. So Christian would always be asking me, like, Do you think Bella's going to cook tonight? Do you think Bella's going to cook tonight? And I'd be like, Oh my gosh, this is a little, this is a little embarrassing at this point that like he's asking his wife if like her sister is going to cook for them to have a good dinner. So I was like, I got to lock it in. That was not always, but we did live right next to each other. It was a lot. Bella, Bella says it too. You used to have been influenced by Bella's over exaggeration. No, everybody knows. I can kind of believe that you would, you would do that. Everybody knows. Everybody knows. Well, I married someone just like me. He seeks out good food. That's true. Yes. He's always calling dad, you cookin' tonight, which I love because it gets me in love. That's more of a fellowship. I love it. It's great. So anyways, all that to say, I decided I need to start cooking. And so I started learning. I started doing like half baked harvest is where I started for anyone interested. That's, I started following her recipes and then I got better. But all that to say for the cake situation, I really, it was ugly, but it tasted really good. And the siblings were all mad about it. And Rebecca is still, she posted the other day, and she's like, justice for my cake. We still haven't decided who the winner is. Like it was decided. It was actually decided. Rebecca's cake was pretty unbelievable. I told her, I was like, people are going to ask you to do that for them. I mean, that was her artistic, it was insane. Artistic ability was insane on that. But when she said the flavor profile was banana, I was like, you miss it. Didn't she say banana cream or something? Like she didn't hit dad's flavors. Yeah. And hey, that man cared about the flavors. So that was a funny behind the scenes moment. I mean, you saw it on camera, but you couldn't have known how much that really actually carried over. It carried over. For months and we're still talking about it. What were some of y'all's favorite behind the scene moments from filming this season? Well, actually, whenever you like, launched the whole podcast, it reminded me of the episode, it hasn't aired yet. So I don't know if that's how this airs it, well, it had aired, but that was a super fun one where we actually competed. Christian and I, that was a strange, that's two, where we competed for your guest hosting. Yes. And so we had to say the whole like, welcome to what that's good, whatever. That was the funniest day. Well, I was going to maternity leave. We laughed so hard that day. We laughed so hard. It was so funny. And the interviews that y'all had to do, we set it up to where they had to interview hard guests. So that looked different ways. Like one guest didn't talk a lot and then one guest talked too much. And then one guest said weird things and it's like, how do you put it in the conversation? It was so funny. I hope it comes across in the edit. How funny it was that day because we were crying. I still get asked all the time about co-hosting. So I think it'll hit. I think it'll resonate with people. I do think it will. Speaking of competition. Speaking of competition, well, if you listen to this podcast and you know my mom won because she took over while I was on maternity leave, sorry babe. You needed me at the house. Yeah, that's right. I think that was why I did it. Yeah, yeah. That was it. That was it. I love it. Christian, any of your favorite behind the scenes? Yeah, I'm trying to think of even just favorite moments from filming. One that sticks out to me is floor. I should, we should do a podcast and I should be floor. No. Okay. That was the first season. I do want to see him as floor again on a podcast. That would be really funny. Christian goes when he gets in a character. I love it. No wonder that's where Haven gets it from. When Haven is Moana, she's Moana. Like we'll be at Haven, put on your shoes. Moana doesn't wear shoes. Haven, can you walk? I have a tail. I'm Ariel. It's like, you never know, but she's like all in. That's Christian. But also, I think for me, the thing that sticks out most is just like how much time we all got to spend together. Yeah. Like for me, the moments I think about, I love, this will come out later, but the hot wings one, I can't remember what we actually call it. Hot legs. Funniest. The hot legs is the one we cried last time. I laughed so hard and I was so thankful I was pregnant in that moment and I didn't have to do that because I would have had a cold. I also think it was just more memorable filming like in spring, summertime than in the winter. Yeah. It was more fun. Like doing the burgers late at night. Yeah. The hot legs, like out, you know, like the more summer feel to me. It seems more nostalgic. Outside memories. Yeah. Well, the hot wings. Okay. So, if you've ever seen hot ones on YouTube, it's one of, like we used to love watching hot ones. And you know, it's the, what does it say? It's the only show where you have hot wings and even hotter questions or something like that. Anyways, so we did a spoof on that but with frog legs. So, it was like hot sauce and all of them did it. But I have, well, first of all, I was pregnant, which is what got me out of it. But genuinely, I have a geographic tongue, which you do too. Literally yesterday, honey, saw my tongue and she said, your tongue looks broken. I was like, thank you. But like, it makes things extra, extra, extra spicy for me. So, like, once I was eating crawfish, that's not even that spicy. And I was like physically shaking. It hurts so bad. So, I was like, that stinks. I could never do that show because I would love to, because I love the interviewer, but I could never do that. You should do it, but he should just like focus on it. But watching that was the funniest thing ever. John Luke, I actually thought he was going to pass out. Oh, he nearly did. He was on the floor. He was pale. Which brought me back to a memory of John Luke. Were you there at Buffalo Wild Wings when he was like in high school? You know how they had that challenge there? And he, for some reason, was determined. He wanted to do it. He's like not the person that he has. He doesn't really eat spicy food like that. He's like so skinny and like doesn't eat spicy food. He was like not a eater. He wanted to do it. And he was like foaming at the mouth. Not was coming out of everything. Eyes were watering. And I'm as the mom, like dying laughing. But I'm like, this is bad. That was a memory of a low one. It was so funny. It was so funny. It was a fun night. So I've been trying to be a lot more intentional lately about what I'm putting on my skin because it really does matter. For a long time, I just assumed the more intense products meant better results, but that is really not true. That's why I've been loving Primally Pure. It's a female founded company, which I love supporting. And they are all about using real natural ingredients, no harsh chemicals, no fillers, just stuff your skin genuinely recognizes. And here's the thing, their products legit work. I am not kidding. I mean, I noticed the biggest difference. I was so happy to find out that I don't have to sacrifice great results just because I'm going to a more natural and really prioritizing non-toxic skincare. I personally keep coming back to their plumping cream and serum. So good you want my skin feels hydrated, more glowy and overall just better. And I love that Primally Pure uses ingredients like tallow and botanical is that actually support my skin. They also have a pumping spray that I love. It makes you feel so good and refreshed throughout the day. Just gives you a little pick me up that your skin needs sometimes. Truly, when I started using those, not only did I notice a difference in my skin, but I started getting complimented a lot on my skin and people started saying, what are you using? And I was like, I'm not kidding. Day one, you'll notice a difference. It's not that skincare that you had to say like, okay, maybe in a few months I'll see a difference. Like you look so beautiful whenever you use these products. So if you've been looking for some cleaner skincare swaps that actually work, this is a great place to start.

Okay, questions from the DMs. Does it ever get awkward being followed around by a camera? To be honest for me, I'm like so used to it because genuinely when you think about it, and this is kind of weird to think about, but we started filming our show. What year did we start filming Duck Commander Family? Outdoor channel? Probably 2009. I was 12. Yeah. I think it was even earlier than that. Maybe. I was 12. I'm 28 now. I've had more of my life in front of a camera than not. Maybe 2008. And so I am like so used to being in front of a camera that sometimes, especially when we first got married, you would have to tell me when things were too far to share or like because I don't feel that awkwardness or I don't feel that because it's just so natural. I think that's part of your personality. That is part of my personality, but I'm also very used to it. When we do things with other people and they're like, okay, you know, we're returning the camera and then say this. And everybody's like, wow, you did that so naturally because some people feel awkward in front of a camera, but I'm like, I've literally been in front of a camera since I was 12. So I don't personally feel that awkwardness, but I think that's just because of how long and that is part of my personality. Yeah. I remember at first feel awkward. I remember even the director who was helping us had to say to me like, hey, relax, you know, be yourself. And I would be, I think I would be more like calm on the show than I am in real life because I didn't want to come across as like too much, maybe are as like I was faking it or acting. So I would kind of like chill down. You know, way so cute on the way. Was she not here's you're so cute. Season one is when um, season one is when Willie since Phil inside to go do the thing at the school. Yes, you were all flustered and mad about it. Yes, you're cutting your vegetables. No, and I did not even realize that they were expecting their daddy. The knife. Yes, they're expecting their daddy. You said I'm so country to you. So anyway, I just remember when we very first started filming him being like, no, just be yourself. Like don't feel like you have to like be more calm or more this. Like just be yourself and move. You can move, you know, and being more like stiff or something and him being like, no, like do you can do stuff? You can chop vegetables. You can do something while you're while you're filming, you know, so I remember that initially kind of like needing a little bit of that. Like catch because I was in my forties when it happened. So it was a lot later for me. Way different when you're 12. Exactly. Now I don't feel it. And the kids, I remember when we first started filming with the little kids this time around, they were a little bit unsure. And then they just got so used to the cameras. I didn't even think about it. Yeah. We'd have to bribe them with for the mic with candy though. Yeah, our dollar. They loved the filming. It was this, the putting on the mic, putting on the mic, stopping to put the mic on. Yeah, they were playing and they didn't want to stop and put on a mic, but they get a dollar if they did it. And then mom had a cute little book where they got to collect their dollars that they made for putting on the mic and it was cute. I didn't ever think, I didn't ever think being followed around with the camera was awkward or weird to me. I don't know. It felt like... Christian said I've been waiting on this moment all my life. I felt like something I was just made to do. I really enjoyed it. We actually saw that from him. We loved that. I think Christian loved it more than anybody else, which I love that he did. And it was, it really was, it is so fun. It is special. It's like you're, you're getting a play together is what it does feel like, you know. It was really sweet. It's sweet because like when we were talking about are we going to do another season and we don't know if we will. But for me, you know, it was, it's so fun and I'm so thankful. And if we do get to it, be so grateful. But there's so much going on with the kids and with L.O. and all the stuff that for me, it feels a little overwhelming. And then Christian one day he was like, I know everybody's kind of like, I don't know if we're doing it, but I'm kind of like, let's do it. He's like, I loved it. And it makes me so happy like to see how much you do enjoy it. And I love that. I think it was really, is really fun about that Christian loved it so much is that our family motto is like, don't take yourself too seriously. And that you really have to like lean into that to do a show like this, because you have to just lean into like play and fun and don't take yourself like it's okay if somebody thinks whatever somebody thinks about you or whatever, like don't think too much of yourself in it. And if you can do that, then you really can have fun in it, but it's hard. It can be a head game. Like you could definitely get in your head about like, what are people going to feel think when they see this about me or what are, you know, how am I being perceived or whatever. I get in that space. And if you get in your head too much about it, it cannot, can be not fun. Yeah. But I love that Christian just went with this. And that's the thing too, because it's different if you're playing, if you're acting and you're playing like a character in a TV show or something like that, but then they don't like that character. That's who the character is. So they're not going to maybe go change the whole script or the show for that character. But with the TV show, if someone doesn't like you, it's like, well, you can't go, like you can't go pivot. It's like this is kind of who I am. This is who I am. So I can't be like, let me go find this alter ego. Right. It's vulnerable to put yourself out there because if people, people will say stuff like that as if you're a character, yeah, and you're not a character, you're a person. Exactly. People will be like, oh, like people actually refer to Dynasties members as characters, and it's like, oh, that's my dad. That's actually my uncle. It feels like character because it's TV. So that is kind of like a funny thing. Whenever dad and I do speeches or whatever together, he'll introduce me. He's like, this is, this is Corey. She plays my wife on television. Yeah, she plays. Also your wife in real life. That's so funny. I love it. Okay. When is the episode of Kit's birth story coming out? So this was so sweet. And honestly, someone was asking me this other day, and I was saying, I haven't seen the episode or the things that you haven't even seen it. You'll see it with everybody else. Yeah, isn't that crazy? Because y'all filmed so much on the phone that day of like the day that Kit was born. It was so sweet. And for those who have asked people, are like, did you feel vulnerable sharing your birth story? Did you want that to be on TV? This is a great thing about reality TV is like, you get to say what you feel comfortable with and what you don't feel comfortable with. And that was something that I thought would be really special to share, but under the boundaries of not having any producers there or actual cameras. But y'all filming it from just like a natural perspective. And if it worked to show it, I don't even know what all y'all got that day. I literally don't know what's going to be out there. And I'm really excited though. Like I can't wait to see it because I feel like it'll be like reliving one of the best days of my life with Kit. And we'll always have that for her. And to me, it felt like so cool and just the Lord's hand that this season started with honoring Peppal Phil and his life and his legacy and ending the season with new birth, you know, like a new generation coming. And so it's just like the perfect book and we couldn't have planned that. Like you don't plan those things as well. Always think of improvers where it says, you know, man can make its plans, but it's the Lord who establishes their steps. And it's like, we made the plans and we filmed TV show. We didn't know Peppal Phil was going to pass away. I didn't even know I was going to be pregnant with Kit. We didn't know that the first episode was going to be honoring Peppal Phil. We didn't know that the last episode could be a new generation being born, but that's like the Lord establishing steps. And that is so cool to me. Wow. No, cool. That's so cool. Yeah. Well, I was thinking as you were sharing that about us filming, you know, and we did it just with our own cameras without like, we didn't have like producers or anything in the room with you. But the fact that you had a C-section and you posted about, you posted some of the video. And you didn't realize what impact that was going to make for other people to be able to kind of like see a C-section on, because you don't see a lot of that. You see, you know, on, on social media, if you get in the algorithm of births, you don't necessarily see C-sections and how that impacted people in such a positive way, which kind of speaks to why we do what we do anyway. Yeah. I didn't even know. So I guess because we had gotten all the rights from the hospital to film, I didn't know that most of the time a lot of people having C-sections don't have the rights to bring cameras in. And so we had gone through the legal process to make sure we could do that for the show. But then I had it to share on social media and people were like, wow, I've never seen a C-section portrayed in such a really beautiful way. And I think that is really hard for moms. Like a lot of moms feel like if you have to do a C-section, it doesn't feel as like miraculous as like, you know, a vaginal delivery, but like any birth is miraculous. There's a heartbeat, like, there's a baby, like this is a miracle. And so it was really special to get to show that side of things. And a lot of people have been asking me to share Kit's birth story on the podcast, like I did with Honey and Haven, and I chose not to share it on the podcast. We shared a lot of it, you know, in the show, but, you know, some things you got to keep personal. And but I'm excited, though, to share that side of it on the show. And that's really sweet. And that's coupled with the guys going on an epic hunt, which, oh yeah, that's how fun. The finale is just great. I forgot about how fun that was. Like getting to go actually like fly on a plane with all the brother-in-laws and like that was such a fun trip. Yeah, which y'all usually do once a year anyway. Dad really takes y'all on like a brother-in-law trip to go hunting or whatever. So that was fun to get to capture that. For the girls to start planning. A lot of good laughs. A lot of good laughs on that trip. I love it. Okay, I just want to take a second to talk about something that's really been on my heart. Right now there's so much noise in the world. Somebody voices telling people what to do and what to think. But for women facing unplanned pregnancies, the pressure can get really overwhelming, really fast. What breaks my heart is that so often they don't even get a moment to slow down, take a breath and really understand what's happening. And that's why I care so much about pre-born. And I want you to know about it. At pre-born network clinics, women are met with love and compassion, not pressure. They're actually given a free ultrasound and space just to breathe. For many women, that's the first time that they're going to get to actually see their baby and it literally changes everything. On top of that, they get to hear about the hope of Jesus, which is so powerful in that moment. And this month, pre-born's goal is to have 11,000 gospel conversations with women who are walking through this and we actually get to be a part of it, which is so cool. This really hits close to home. I have three daughters and they mean the whole world to me. And I can't imagine with those pregnancies feeling alone, feeling scared, not knowing the truth. And so this is a community that's going to come around you. That's going to give you the good news of the gospel of Jesus and help you know that you can do this and you don't have to do it alone. And here's this baby that God's blessed you with. So just $28 provides one ultrasound and $140 helps five moms have that amazing moment of seeing their baby and hearing about truth and hope to donate dial pound 250 and say the keyword baby. Again, that's pound 250 baby or visit pre-born.com slash Sadie. Again, that's pre-born.com slash Sadie. Interesting question. Do you guys get a lot of attention in public? Do you get annoyed by fans coming up to you? I think it varies. Sometimes it's like a lot and then other times it's like not that much kind of depends on where you are and what environment you're in or whatever. But yeah, we talk to a lot of people. We have a lot of conversations. We take a lot of pictures all that. And for the most part, it's not annoying. I think it's really sweet. We have great fans. Everyone says nice things and all that. I mean, there have been times when it has been a little bit like much or somebody you know, yells it across the whole way and you're like, okay, you don't have to yell it. Let's just be a little more subtle about it or whatever. But for the most part, I think it's just really sweet. It's so true. It's so true. And it does vary. As well always say when people go, are you famous? And I say famous to some, not to others because fame really is interesting. Mr. Rogers, I love how he says it. Fame is just a four letter word like tape or zoom or face or pain, but it ultimately matters what you do with it. And I think about that a lot because if I go to somewhere like, I don't know, if we're in New York City, you know, we'll stop and talk to a few people. But for the most part, we can walk around. It's pretty normal. There's so much going on in that city. If I'm in Buckees in South Alabama. Yeah, Buckees in South Alabama. Everybody at Buckees getting really excited. Like where you are does matter. But personally, we do really love it when people come up to us because like you say, we have amazing fans and we've structured our platform in such a way that it feels more like, you know, than just like a fan. It's like, oh, like I listen to this podcast or I watch this video or you know, I was 12 when I started watching Duck Dynasty and it's been a part of my family. Like it's the sweetest thing to hear the way that this is impacting people and everything we do is, it's for God and it's for people, you know? Right. And so, I mean, that aspect of it, I love, it's actually really encouraging to me because so much of what we do is private and then it's like, we're putting out this podcast and no one's in the room, you know, just like our little team. We're writing books and it's just like me and my co-writer helping me. It's like, you know, you don't see the people you're impacting. And so, I'm very grateful for that. But like you said, yes, sometimes it does get a little overwhelming, especially when we're with the kids and the family. And it'll be like, some people do cross the boundary, you know, like we've had, had someone sit on my lap in the airport, a grown woman, take a picture of me and like, that's the one climb across my lap, you get a picture. Oh yeah, people have like, yeah, a lot of cross-Christian airplane. I actually got a selfie with me. Like, yeah. I mean, just, there's times where it just can cross a boundary, especially with our kids too. But for the most part, it's very sweet. During the show, the first time around, there was a lot of craziness and it did become like, there was some loneliness in it because you couldn't go out because you couldn't go to a restaurant during that time period because, but, and so you just kind of ordered room service because you couldn't go to the mall or whatever in a way, in the same way, unless you had some help or security just because of so, there was just so much. And so I remember there being some hard parts about that. And for y'all in high school, it was hard part. In high school, that was very hard. Because it did feel isolating and lonely because we would try really hard to maintain normalcy, but then people wouldn't really allow you to film normal. And I think the hardest part was like, you couldn't really go to a concert or be at a, more so like just restaurants. To me, it was like seeing with friends, it was people's expectation on me that was really hard. Because for instance, like, I remember at times, I would be like, okay, I'm going to the reference, so people asked to know, I'm just going to say like, Hey, I'm with my friends. And it would make people so mad if I said I couldn't take a picture. And I would try to do it in the most polite way. I just say I'm with my friends. I was trying to like be normal. And then those people, I mean, this happened several times would go on social media and just blast me. Like, sometimes it was moms rude moms. I'm like, how would a mom not understand? I said, no, I'm a teenager, you know, and tag you and tell them how rude I was that I didn't stop to take a picture with them. And it was just that was hard because I would get in my head about like how I was being perceived. And then it just made you not want to go anywhere. Okay, then I just won't do it, you know? So that was hard. I haven't experienced that in a really long time. I feel like most of the time now people are very respectful. And I do feel like we're just living in a different day, though, because when Doug Dynasty, the original one was out, it was kind of before social media is what it is now to where people do feel like they see into your life a little bit more. So it was more like fandom. It was like we were characters and it was just like, whoa, like I gotta take a picture. They treated you not like you're just human in a way. Yeah. Or now because people follow us on social media, they see our family, they see us for who we are as people, people come up to you like a person, you know, that they appreciate more than they used to. Yeah. From my perspective. I think that's true. I agree. I think also because of the podcast and all that now, like you said, people aren't coming up to us and saying like, oh, I love y'all because your granddad, you know, cuts off frog legs or whatever. They're saying like, we love y'all because you've made an impact in our family in some way. And that is really special. I like that means so much to me. It means so much. And it really does keep us going. It keeps us doing what we're doing because we do hear of the impact that we've made. I always tell this story because I love it. We hear this kind of thing a lot and especially I hear it about you a lot Sadie. Like a lot of so many people come up to me and tell me how much your podcast had meant to them. But this one I always tell because it just exemplifies something that you wouldn't necessarily think. So we were skiing in Salt Lake City on the slopes. This guy comes up with like long hair and like this handle bar mustache and he was a ski instructor and he came up and was like, oh my gosh, your family has like made such an impact on my life. I became a duck hunter. I never ducked come before and like literally I became a duck guide because of your family. Like I love, I love your family and all that sounds like that's so great. Thanks for sharing that or whatever. So, and then we went on. He comes back like 10 minutes later and he brings his girlfriend and he's like teary eyed and he's like, I told you all that, I told you earlier that your family impacted me, but I really didn't tell you the full story of that. I just want to tell you that your daughter saved my life and I was like, what? She's like, I listened to her podcast like in the darkest time of my life. I was in a really bad place and I just started listening to her podcast and it just changed my life and it saved my life and I want to say that to you in front of my girlfriend and I wanted you to know that. So it was just so beautiful because it was like somebody that you wouldn't have expected like, yeah, expected that hit me for him to say I became a duck hunter because I watched her so, but that impact was the impact that's like, whoa, that's really meaningful and that'll make you keep doing it. Thanks so much. It will make you keep doing it, make you keep doing it, make you cry and that's what I always tell people when they come up and tell me that, I always say, thank you so much for telling me that because it means so much that I'm like so thankful that God would allow me to do this and it would reach you in that way and before we've done any podcast, we've ever recorded, we pray and we pray for the listener and we always pray that God would give us a love for the listener and words to speak to the listener and so when people come up to me and they say like, you said this and it changed my life or that episode, whatever it was and I'm like, that's answered prayers. You know, that's God moving and it really does keep us going. So I would not want someone sitting across their room from me acting like a stranger who's been listening to my podcast for five years like, please come tell me that you do. Please come tell me what God's done in your life. Like, I love that kind of stuff. So yeah, in the past, we've had funny things, but for the most part, you just have just recently somebody like take a picture. People try to take secret pictures. Oh, yeah. That's hilarious. Because they never are secret. They're all secret. They're being like so discreet and didn't somebody splash? It's Cole Sprouse. Maybe she listens to the podcast. Cole Sprouse or Dylan Sprouse, they do it. They take pictures of the people taking pictures of them. Oh yeah. This to show people it's not secret. And it's everybody. Yeah, this girl, well, we were just down at the beach and we do take a lot pictures from around the beach. And so that's just kind of fun. But when we were walking by this girl, it was dark and her flash goes up right like literally right as she's passing in my face. And she goes, Oh, I don't know how I just took a picture. It's like so funny. That was my favorite. No, they're funny. But honestly, it doesn't bother me. People ask like, does it bother you back, especially back whenever so many people were coming up? If someone takes a picture of you or whatever. And I'm like, I really don't care. But I do think, no, telling how many pictures are there of me like eating or like looking my lips or like, who knows, because they're just like taking random, totally candid and I'm not, don't look right in candid shots. When that flash went off, I told her there's some bad pictures out there. That was a bad picture. Because I was like, what was the duckies picture? No, it was the duckies place. And I was checking out and it was the same night. That's what made me think of it. And I was just checking my stuff out. And the girl was just being so sweet and like casual and checking me out. And then this girl like runs around the court. She goes, Oh my gosh, city, Robertson is in here right now. And the register, she goes, and the girl goes, Oh, hi, we're so glad you're in here. And I was just funny because I didn't think the girl checking me out knew who I was. And she's just playing it cool. She's like, Oh, me. It was so funny. We were just talking about how people's like, their tone gets lower and softer whenever they're trying to like, you could tell they're trying to, they're talking to someone and they see you and then they're like, I don't know. And then they kind of notice, they notice they're trying to tell the point of you being recognized as when you audibly hear a conversation and then you walk past and then the conversation stops. Yeah. Roughly. Like that's when you know. It's funny. There's some funny things. Which we do this. I mean, if we see somebody on television or on in a movie or whatever, we do the very same thing. We're like, is that so and so? Do we eat in it? Oh, I cried when I met Steve Harvey. I teared up when I saw Reba. I totally changed my tone. We saw Jason Bate and passed by us at the Gershys for recently. You just do it. It's just fun. You see someone, I mean, for Steve Harvey, you see someone that you've watched on TV a long time and then you're like, whoa, I can't believe that you're here. So we all do it. We all get it. Christian, what about you? I know we talked about this recently. Yeah, I don't really get annoyed by fans coming up to me in public because it's not very often. It means so much to you when someone comes out to you. A guy is like, dude, I love your podcast and your for it men stuff like that is so like Sadie said, if wherever somewhere and you listen to my stuff or please come up to me because it does mean a lot. But I think one of the things I kind of confessed to Sadie a couple months ago or even a couple weeks ago. And it was a, I don't even want to say wrestle, but it was something that I don't realize I kind of had put into place. And it was kind of right before the first season air and it was kind of like this family thing. And we kind of talked about it. And not that it was in any way a bad expectation or anything, but it was kind of like this, hey, you know, things might change, you know, you'll probably get recognized more. So I think I kind of like mentally geared up like, okay, like my life might change a little bit, you know, and not one thing changed. That was like, it wasn't like a disappointment. But it was just like a, oh, that, you know, that didn't hit like I thought it was gonna hit. And I asked Sadie that threshold a couple of weeks ago, I was like, when do you cross that threshold to like, hey, are you Christian to like, yo, can I get a selfie? Like I don't, I haven't crossed wherever that threshold is. I'm not there yet. You haven't crossed it yet. I haven't crossed it yet. Well, I'm just laughing because I told him I was like, well, it is interesting because I feel like again, because we started from when I was 12, people have known me for so long and people do recognize you now a lot actually, but people still do go, oh, you are, you know, who you are because our family has been known for so long. Like people know that were, I mean, I have so many people say to me like, I love you and your husband's dance videos. Like that's a very common thing that people say they recognize us from that, but it's like, even when we went to dinner, it's like, oh, I'm seating the Robertson family. It's just the Robertson's has, is like a household name kind of. And so we were just like talking about that. And I was like, but also it is something that I'm grateful for for our family for the girls because we always ask them because people will say that can I take picture of your family? And we obviously do want to be in picture, do you not? And so if they don't, you know, they can stand with you. If they do, they can be in the picture, like most of the time they do. So it's actually like a sweet thing for our family, but it was really sweet. We had a good conversation. What I do now is when people ask to get a picture with Sadie, I'll take it. Oh, it's so awkward that you do this too, by the way. This is hilarious. So I'll take the picture and then I'll hand the phone back. Then I'll be like, okay, so where do you want to get for our picture? And they get so awkward. And I'm like, I'm just kidding. And then they'll be like, no, we can take a picture. And he's just joking. I don't want to get it. And it makes him get so hilariously awkward. That is so funny. Well, but Dad and I is similar in that like, I take, I do take pictures and people, even if I'm just by myself or whatever, people take pictures with me, but not to the extent that Dad does. And if so, Dad, that and our together. I'm not crying. My eyes are just kind of really watering right now. I'm not like being emotional about this. You made me, I'm crying, laughing. Our allergies are, my allergies were terrible this morning. I was already, no. These are not like, sad tears. You're literally crying. I don't know what just happened. It's so vulnerable. I'm not being vulnerable. You're on this episode. This is going to be the trailer. It's going to be Chrissy Cronk. Thank you, my friend. You're hard. It's just so hard sometimes. No, the allergies are so bad today. I don't know what he like said. I watered off all my makeup today for my allergies. So Dad and I are similar in that like with Dad, with Willie, like they, people like have to have the picture with me. They want to say something to me a lot of times. A lot of times people say like, oh, your family's been a lot or whatever, which is really sweet. They don't necessarily have to have a picture, but with if Willie's there, like they got to have that picture. Exactly. Which is, it's totally fine. So I'll offer, I'll be like, you'll me to take it. And then sometimes they're like, I don't know what you in it or whatever. I don't care. Like I truly don't care whatsoever, one way or another. But the funny thing is when we're together, Dad says that he takes more pictures when we're together than he's by himself because it's like verification. Yeah, it's like, oh, that's who that is. It's like you see him and then you're like, oh, that might be him, but then you see me and you're like, oh yeah, for sure. We get recognized way more with the kids. Yeah. Because people realize like, oh, it's confirmation. It's like where they think maybe or whatever. But Willie takes a lot more pictures than I do, even still. Like I said, it's not something that bothers me. It doesn't matter. But he is weeping over here. I am not weeping. But like I said, I think it was just that like mental expectation of like, this might change, this might happen. And it didn't. And not that that's like made me like sad or like question anything. Yeah, it's just acknowledging that like I had had this expectation and it didn't happen. So well, it's so true with television. I do think people don't really understand that how what happened with us with Duck Dynasty was so crazy because a lot of people have television shows that doesn't happen. It was a phenomenon. That happened. It still holds a record of being like the most watched unscripted show of all time. And so all the licensed products, all the things that happened with that was kind of like insane. So this time around, that this having the show back on air, it's doing great, a great show and all this. But it just that time around, it was insanity. And you just really never know what's going to happen with the show and how it's going to affect things. But anyway, that that's funny. Thank you for sharing and being vulnerable, Christian. Welcome. I've never shared that publicly. I cannot wait for this trailer. The last question since we're talking about sharing things publicly, is it hard to keep your private and public lives separate? You know, kind of not really, honestly. I mean, we just, I think we live in our same town. You know, we've kept our private lives the way it is. And also, we are kind of open book people just naturally. We have homes that we have a lot of people in all the time. We're used to a lot of people around and family and people and friends and all this. And so we're not super private people, maybe anyway. So that might just be part of our nature. But our private lives still feel very private. Like we live our lives. We do our things. We enjoy our just norm. We feel like we have a very normal life. That goes to the grocery store every day. We do just very normal things. And so I do think with a podcast, we make a joke about that because your recording podcast twice a week or once, you know, essentially. But Jace, for Unashamed and Al, do four times a week and Christian's been doing that. Yes, me and John Luke. And John Luke and Christian have been doing that too, that car room. So you are talking a lot. So there is kind of a joke about that. You're like, if you don't want something told, don't tell, especially Aller Jace, because they're talking for hours every week and they're going to tell every story. They need a cold open, yeah, four or five days a week. Exactly. And so I do think the podcast makes it more than even having the television show. The television show feels a little bit more kind of controlled and you film it a long time ago before it comes out and all that. But the podcast is like every week. The podcast, it is hard because you are talking for so long on such vulnerable topics. So sometimes the line does get cross words like, oh, maybe I shared too much or whatever that looks like. And we've even had people, Texas after some like that. I can't believe you shared that or whatever. And it's like, well, you know, you're in the conversation, but at the same time, you know, again, like you said, we feel so called to it. Like we really do feel a calling our life be the light of the world. And so that's sharing your life with the world. But we also have boundaries in that. Like I look at some influencers who share everything. And that's them. That's not me. You would probably be surprised by how much I don't share when you, if you look at my camera roll, I don't share most of it. You know, I share a lot of things that go like revolve around work, revolve around podcasts, revolve around ministry. There are definitely my family in pockets of that. But like in our day to day, my close friends Instagram is bumping. And, you know, because I want to share that with my family and my friends, but not like the whole world. And so there is like a private aspect to it that has, you know, been kept really normal. Like my best friends, we always laugh. Like we don't have a lot of pictures together. And we've done so much life together for the past five, six years. And there's just like not a lot of pictures to prove it, you know, but it's just private. So I don't think about pulling my phone out in moments that feel private. People ask me like, Oh, you never talked about your home church. That doesn't mean we don't get it. We go to church. We just don't post about going to church, you know, so it's like, there is like such a normal private life here that I don't share just naturally just kind of don't. But it was funny because someone said to me recently who I know very well. So if you're watching this, then you said it. But they were like, I don't follow you on Instagram because I just want to know you for like this side of you. And I was like, well, you should follow me on Instagram because I'm the same person. Like there is privacy, but there's not a disconnect. I'm very much so the same person. Christian always says that about me. And like, I feel like that's just true. He's like, you're very authentic, whether you're here or there. It's the same consistency. It's just, I choose to share this side. I choose not to share that. So I was telling that person, like, you're not going to see me differently by that. You're going to see me the same. I just share more personal things on my private stuff, you know, my private page. Exactly. I post a dump every Sunday and I could post a lot more dumps if I shared all the pictures. Yeah. You're still crying. Sorry, you need to moment. And that's a wrap. Well, I just want to say, I think the authenticity of what you do and what you share and all everybody who does the podcasting and everything and when I'm on the podcasting as well too, I think that is, I always say like, your vulnerability is your superpower because it's how you're growing and learning because you are able to be vulnerable about things that you're going through and Christian, you have that ability too. And I think that is one of the ways y'all have like gained so much wisdom at a young age is because you talk about the things you're going through and you let other people speak into your life. You're constantly learning and all that. And I think that's what podcasting is about. And that's what makes y'all great. Podcasters is because you're doing that and you're doing it live on camera and you're learning and growing and people are following along with that and learning and growing with you. So, thank you so much. Blessing. Mom, you're the best. Thank you. Now Christian is crying. That was so sweet. He's sorry for every time he said we're flexed but okay. No, I took it as a compliment that you would take.
