This episode opens Phase 2 of Fear, Faith, and the Forest, called The Long Walk. It's for the people who didn't get out in the first 90 days, who've reached an equilibrium they know is conditional, who are still walking through the forest of long-term unemployment. Rich names what the job search actually feels like at this point, the zombie ritual of applying into the void, and what's worth doing about it. He talks about two summers compared, the household that's still alive even when the trip can't happen, the functional steadiness sitting on top of a possible cliff, and a quiet realization about what this period has been building all along. The verse is Hebrews 12:1.
