The new episode of Hector USA sees him chat to a former leader of the KKK and visit the birthplace of one Elvis Presley.

Last week we saw Hector visit Alabama where he did some fishing, some pageantry and he also got to play some American Football.

Hector will be meeting up with the famous outspoken football coach Buddy Stephens from ‘Last Chance You’ on Netflix. He is currently the head coach at East Mississippi Community College, where he has won five NJCAA national championships and coached players such as NFL players Chad Kelly and Jarran Reed.

He’ll be linking up with Scott Shepherd, the former KKK leader, heading out on a sting with the Alcohol Enforcement crew in Jackson, meeting up with the Hellfighter Bikers in Laurel before getting the inside story on the obesity epidemic in the country with an early weight loss boot camp with Paul Lacoste.
