• 0:02
  Speaker 1: all big fans of Phil Robertson and Duck Dynasty. Well,
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: let's ask American mama's and joining us now our American
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: mama's Terry Naderville and Kimberly Burlason. Phil Robertson passed away,
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: I guess over the weekends of at seventy nine years old,
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: and suffered from Alzheimer's for a couple of years before
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: his passing. And yes, most folks would know him from
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: Duck Dynasty, the reality TV show, and his company Duck Commander,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: which makes the Duck calls and other hunting at coutrement
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: and the Robertson families and you know, devout Christians and
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: all of this were y'all fan I know the answer
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: to this, But were y' all fans of Phil Robertson.
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: We were more than fans, We were friends. So Phil
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: and my dad played football together there at Louisiana Tack.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: And kind of a fun fact, when Jace was born,
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: I was born and my mom and Miss Kay shared
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: a hospital room for a whole week. Oh back then,
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: you stayed in the hospital all week, and so she
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: shared a room with Miss Kay when Jason and I
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: were born, so my mom and she bonded. And actually
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: my brother's name is Jason and named after Jace because
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: my mom loved that name of her son at the time.
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: But when we had our national magazine in early two thousands,
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: my dad wanted Phil to be in the first issue,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: so he and I went out to their place and
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: we went to their double wide and we interviewed Phil
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: and had the greatest time. But I'll never forget every sentence.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: He couldn't even say a sentence without mentioning the Almighty Jesus,
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: not even a sentence. It was the wildest thing. He
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: was so convicted. It was just such so amazing. But
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: I remember going around taking pictures and video of the boys.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: They were in all these little makeshift houses behind the
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: double wide, and they're making calls, and there's this giant
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: box sitting in the middle of the room and you're they're.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: Literally testing them.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: And I said, do y'all test every one of those
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: duck calls? And Jay said, yep, cooties are going. After
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: about seventy two hours, I was like.
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: Oh, that's wild, gosh. I bet people love them even
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: more love love their duck calls even more. Knowing that.
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: Well, one of the funniest stories that I remember is,
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: you know, of course Terry was underneath you know, Phil Robertson,
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: Terry Bradshaw, Yes, when it came to quarterbacking, and that's.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Who, by the way, you were named after.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah, So Dad said that it was the craziest thing
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: because Dad wouldn't a hunter, but he said Phil would
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: get there with blood all over him, you know, because
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: he had been hunting. So you had the dut blood
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: and everything all over you, and dadaid, he was like,
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: what where are we?
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: What happens during these practices?
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: But but honestly, you know, he was a Phil was
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: a very highly intelligent He had two degrees from Tech.
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: A lot of people don't know that.
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: And he was his football at Q was equally intelligent
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: and and but he his passion was ducks. His passion
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: was hunting. Imagine this. So Terry apparently couldn't break through
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: because field was so good. I've heard I say that before.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: That's part of the thing. Terry Bradshaw Hall of Famer,
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: you know, super Bowl champion. At one point, Phil Robertson
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: was a better quarterback than Terry Bradshaw.
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: Granted, I'm gonna give this to Terry.
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: Phil was older, okay, you know, so he had already
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: established his place, you know, so he probably.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: Still Phil Robertson.
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: You know, he was a he was a good quarterback,
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: right so, and they both acknowledged that. But it's so
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: interesting because I think it had Phil not gone for
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: that passion the duck call, I'm gonna go hunting, I'm
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: gonna go I want to hunt. I want to do
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: this game anymore, what would have happened. Would Terry have
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: been able to shine maybe.
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: The years before his senior year. You know, it's so
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: interesting to me to that level of it.
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: But if you think about Phil Robertson, and I think
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: that his whole family would agree with this. He would
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: rather be known for somebody that brought people to Jesus
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: than someone he made millions of duck calls that made
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: millions and millions of dollars. He would want to be
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: known for his love for Christ, his not only willingness,
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: but his just his eagerness to get the word of
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: God out to everybody, no matter what the platform was.
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: I mean, if you watch Duck Dynasty, he would go
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: into a garage cell and start preaching the word and
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: so well, that's.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: Even when we were interviewing him for the magazine. It
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: was a success magazine, so we're asking specific questions about
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: his business. He did not even know when they made
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: their first million, because Kay took care of the books,
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: and so Kay told him, I'm buying a suburban, and
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: he said, that's how they knew they made their first million.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: He didn't even know, my God because she knew she
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: wanted a suburban when they hit that one million mark.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: He was more focused on his family, even the way
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: they lived. Yeah, it was about family, it was about God.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: It was about the relationship. That's what mattered to him
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: most and the rest of it was just extra.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: And there certainly was a lot of extra. And I
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: do I do think he's actually led a lot of
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: people to God, to Jesus, and it certainly comes through
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: in a show, but it also comes through in the
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: way the family is continuing on. Yes, you know, after
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: he got diagnosed with Alzheimer's and he stepped back from
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: the public spotlight, his kids have certainly kept that going
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: and they continue to talk about Jesus too.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I deletely, so.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: I think that's interesting. If you like to ask our
