Before Duck Dynasty became a massive TV sensation, the Robertsons were just trying to sell more duck calls. Jase and Willie Robertson break down the strange chain of events that led to the show — from Korie sending letters to TV studios to Phil asking a sponsor for $100,000 to a Hollywood producer discovering their Outdoor Channel show while working out at the gym. It's a funny, unlikely origin story that's somehow completely on-brand for the Robertson family!
