Al kicks things off with a rock-and-roll mystery—was it Pat Benatar or Joan Jett who once snubbed the Robertsons on their tour bus? Jase follows it up with a story of how one bold comment may have permanently ended his shot at golfing with Masters champion Bubba Watson. Zach shares a sweet family milestone that has everyone feeling sentimental and grateful.
