==Video Overview==
===Sand Mushrooms===
Kurt leaves the Hidey Hole with Wolfie, avoiding falling off the mountain he ended on and noticing mushrooms on sand. The Direct Relief fundraiser is at $26,689.50 of the ever-increasing goal of $27,800.82. When that goal is caught, Kurt will finally press F3 again. 
===Question: What is the best thing about each place you've lived? What's the worst?===
The best part of Chicagoland was Kurt's family, and that he really fits in with the regional identity there. Kurt misses the food in Phoenix, a diverse mix of culture, but not the traffic. In Seattle he enjoys the fantastic nearby nature, but the gloomy winters can be rough. Circling back to Chicago, he says the drivers are aggressive and it has shaped him. He also points out that suburbs where he grew up as bland and boring. Phoenix is like a huge outdoor strip mall and feels kind of sterile. In Seattle it is difficult to get anywhere, and he is not huge into fish or Asian food. The weather is also much more mundane compared to Chicago. 
===Question: Do you have any thoughts on the various revenue models that are now available to content creators such as advertisements, subscriptions, affiliate links, etc, pros, and cons? Now that you do the sponsor stuff, a. was there ever a time that you wouldn't have, and b. could I pay you to play a game?===
Kurt wouldn't necessarily consider Twitch bounties to be sponsored content. He has been pretty quick to adopt some options, being one of the first 100 campaigns on Patreon. Kurt notices a random chicken out on the ice, and Wolfie takes a while to kill a pig. If a different platform gave him a generous offer to jump ship to them, Kurt would take it in a heartbeat. He wishes on YouTube he could exclude certain brands from advertising there. Kurt mentions not being a fan of Amazon, and admits that there is little way to do his job guilt-free as he streams on Twitch (owned by Amazon). He is unsure how to respond to somebody asking him to play their game, and says that for most viewers just enjoy the content and continue viewing it. 
===Question: How would you describe the awesomeness of alpacas?===
He answers 'llama', and goes to bed.
