The return of Duck Dynasty to A&E has generated considerable excitement, with fans especially eager to know if Uncle Si Robertson would be part of the reboot. Korie Robertson and Sadie Robertson addressed this question on their Whoa That’s Good podcast in January, confirming Uncle Si’s participation in the highly-anticipated series.

Korie Robertson stated, “Is Uncle Si gonna be on the show? Yes, you will see Uncle Si on the show.So much has changed. we’ve got a lot to catch people up on.”
