I would have played 23. Kg2 and then as black I would have among other things played 29. ...Rb8 NOT exchanging queens. Stockfish hugely agrees on both counts, and crucifies white's kingwalk many of the steps along the way. I know Stockfish isn't the all-knowing chess god, but surely Rb8 would be just common sense any novice player should know.   
  
Apparently Black has a FIDE rating of 2515 while white's is 2364.  I was going to suggest maybe it was a bullet game or maybe their ratings are fake/inflated but here's the game starting at around 3:09:00:
