Getz, once an experienced outdoorsman, has lost touch with his small-town roots and has become a tech-addicted, social-media-driven producer/shooter in Los Angeles. His phone has literally taken over his life and left the former fly fisherman, rock climber and snowboarder paralyzed. Since moving to L.A., Getz has become a slave to his phone and can't go two seconds without texting or checking his social media accounts. Getz hopes to use the show as a form of tech rehab so he can make a major change in his life and be part of a real community, not an online one.
