'Rescue Me': dedication to Judy Giuliano
Nathan dedicates the next song to everyone who has lost someone close, and to the band's late mother, Judy Giuliano, to whom the album is also dedicated. He describes the past year and a half of stress, adversity, and questioning, and says the band is pushing on by God's strength alone. The band performs 'Rescue Me' acoustically; the performance itself was not captured in the transcript text, only the introduction and the hosts' reaction.
