Double J performs 'Breathe' and discusses the song
Double J performs his original song 'Breathe' live in studio, written three weeks earlier after four hours of yelling his frustrations at God from his car — about staying in open communication with God. Afterward he explains the songwriting (a new hook-writing approach after years of critics saying he wasn't good enough; lines like 'billy goats gruff', a Sonic commercial reference, and 'a vacant hospital, I had no patients'), the upcoming Limitless album, the planned Kickstarter with prizes (Double J sunglasses, a signed six-foot banner), and the hosts joke about a 48-hour fundraising telethon.
