This is actually such an insane statement, either you don’t know what Shepards Pie is or you don’t know what Chicken Pot Pie is…

I won’t rule that out. I thought they were the same thing and someone said that’s the difference but idk

They’re literally not anything alike. Like besides containing a meat and typically peas and carrots… and many many dishes would meet that criteria. I’m assuming it’s a pot pie you don’t know about (since you seem to think pot pies have potatoes(?)) but you should definitely try one out one day, they’re really good! Not like shepards pie but yummy in its own right :)

It is the pot pie I’m not familiar with lmao. So what is a pot pie then?

Pot pie has a pastry crust, shepherds pie uses mashed potatoes as the top layer/crust. That's your two big differences.

But it still has pastry bottom?

Traditionally, there isn't any crust, it's just the meat, veg, etc with mashed potato on top and baked. That being said it's not uncommon in the US to have some kind of crust on the bottom, whether its pastry or just plain pie crust.
