==Video Overview==
Kurt welcomes his viewers to an early day Far Lands or Bust stream, and Wolfie immediately barks allowing Kurt to begin walking. He is asked if he anticipated living in such 'interesting times', and Kurt says they're not that interesting to him. Kurt says that there used to be a lot less ability to get global information and wonders if people in Southeast Asia care at all about 'interesting times' in the United States. Kurt continues walking for a few days until a donation comes in asking about how he makes coffee. He talks about using the aero-press upside down and that he needs to lesson the effort he puts into food. Kurt finds a Dungeon with a double chest, and avoids getting shot by a Skeleton. He gets enough gunpowder to use TNT to blow up the Dungeon to his amusement. Kurt is asked how many plays he's been too, and says he's not a fan of theater in general and he last saw a production decades ago. Saying The Girlfriend is into rodeos, Kurt finds a near Elevated Hidey Hole, slightly unnerving him. He then makes one using sand which goes badly, Kurt deciding to stick with dirt. Asked if the pandemic has made him less likely to go out and do things even after its over, Kurt first says that he remembers a year ago not thinking vaccines would end the pandemic. He thinks it has made his anxiety worse, and that disproves people who said the pandemic didn't affect Kurt much because was an introvert. Kurt thinks a lot of people just had their heads above water before the pandemic and are now drowning so to speak. Saying he needs to deal with this himself, he digs in a Hidey Hole.
Returning to the journey, Kurt sees another large donation to Equality Texas and instantly breaks his boat on accident. The donor gave in a questionnaire from Stephen Colbert, and in responding to one of them Kurt says marijuana smells awful. Kurt says exercise isn't interesting or worth it to him, but does admit that it could be a good hobby to get fit. He says he has no interest in sports or mixing things up, and loves getting into a routine because it eliminates any uncertainty because trying something new leads to a flood of anxiety. Kurt says rock climbing and potentially hitting golf balls at a driving range sound interesting. While Kurt is never interested in truly getting great at anything, The Girlfriend is very driven to be the best at something. Kurt never cared for sports as a kid, and e-sports fall into that category for him because he feels embarrassment from getting handily defeated. Viewers go through a lot of hobbies for Kurt, and he says he tried tennis once because his grandparents bought him a tennis racket. His tennis instructors didn't explain the scoring before he started playing so his first game went badly. Kurt also has negative childhood memories of lawn work, so is disinterested in that. Someone says Kurt is alienating his viewers with this conversation, but Kurt counters saying it's worse for him as these thoughts enter his brain. Kurt does say The Girlfriend wants him to get out of his comfort zone because it can become a 'comfort rut'. He says that the pandemic taking a lot of opportunities to get out of his comfort off the table has left him emotionally scarred.
