Phil, in particular, regularly butted heads with network brass, and was even banned from the show indefinitely in 2013 after an infamous interview with GQ, during which he compared homosexuality to bestiality and suggested that black people were exaggerating what their ancestors suffered during the Jim Crow era.

Unfortunately, Phil appears to have not learned much from the situation; he continued to make controversial comments in the media, even while Duck Dynasty was still airing. In 2015 and 2016 alone, he stated that STDs are punishment for premarital sex, offered a rather horrendous hypothetical for what he figured atheists should suffer through, and aligned himself with Citizens United to block the transgender bathroom law in North Carolina — all while Duck Dynasty's viewership continued to dwindle.
Folksy and independent in a hillbilly sort of way, am guessing, for a start, anyway .. to die hard fans racism and bigotry and, of course, bible thumping .. it's great to see enough U.S.A.ers finally clicked after Phil baby
