Return to Georgia, USA (S12E02)

Colbert is truly unforgettable. In 2014, Ben Fogle met the quirky sixty-something who had constructed his ideal retreat—a rustic cabin without electricity or running water—amidst the humid, mosquito-filled swamps of Georgia. Ben struggled to comprehend Colbert’s choice of lifestyle and found his unconventional views puzzling, especially during their awkward campfire discussion about intimacy. Yet, he couldn’t help but admire the man’s spirit. Upon his return, Ben learns that Colbert's cherished home was lost to a fire a few years prior. Undaunted, Colbert rebuilt, declaring with joy, “I feel overwhelmingly blessed. I’m one of the richest people in the world.” SUMMARY: Ben reconnects with the skilled craftsman in Georgia’s swamps and discovers that a significant accident has transformed Colbert’s life over the past six years, yet his competitive nature remains intact.
