Season Four
With 52 episodes in the can, three Leo Awards, a Gemini-nomination and a Guinness World Record, the launch of “Glutton for Punishment” season four (13 x 30) marks the end of one culinary adventure – and the start of another. The uber-competitive adrenalin junkie Bob Blumer hangs up his challenge flag with the completion of season four which features him eating a mound of more than 20 stinging nettle plants, creating an award-winning maple-bacon flavored ice cream and traveling to mainland China to master the ancient art of Kung Fu tea service. The series is produced by Paperny Films who is in development with Bob Blumer on a new series for Food Network Canada.

Season Three
Season Three really tested Bob’s mettle: hiking up treacherous slopes in the forest fire-charred wilderness of British Columbia in search of the elusive morel mushroom, getting tangled in kelp beds while scuba diving in open ocean for spiky sea urchins off the Pacific coast, and trying to cook in a moving kitchen on board a Navy frigate at sea. Somehow, this food/adrenalin junkie managed to come out unscathed, and even carved himself a place in the Guinness Book of World Records along the way!
Season Two
Bob’s threshold for punishment is pushed to the limit in Season Two: an action-packed journey that finds Bob in over his head once again, as he attempts to wrestle a 50-pound catfish in Oklahoma, chase a cheese wheel down a cliff in England, wear a beard of forty thousand live bees in British Columbia, and tempt fate with the deadly fugu fish in Japan. Strap in tight and enjoy the ride!
Season One
Whether it’s braving the heat as a BBQ Pit Master in Kansas City, enduring the elements for five days of backbreaking grape picking in Germany, or burning his lips off at the Hatch Chile Pepper Eating Contest in New Mexico, Bob’s appetite for adrenaline-charging culinary feats knows no bounds in Season One!
