The show 'Glutton for Punishment' is back on lifestyle channel TLC with its quirky and enigmatic host, Bob Blumer.

The show will air daily at 10 pm from 30 January.

Blumer travels across the globe exploring new ways to experiment with food and its techniques. As a chef, he transforms common ingredients into awe-inspiring dishes through his unusual ways of cooking that have become his culinary trademark.

After completing four seasons of 'Glutton for Punishment', Blumer attempts to break or establish six Guinness World Records. From making superb efforts to best a 30-year-old record for peeling 50 pounds of onions, to making the world’s largest bowl of salsa, he has been shown pushing his speed, stamina and determination to the hilt.

Discovery South Asia senior VP, GM Rahul Johri said, “Blumer is an energetic and engaging host, whose culinary talent is matched only by his extreme zest for life. We are delighted to bring back Glutton for Punishment after the excellent response we have received from previous seasons of the show.”

Blumer returns and pushes his boundaries further to match his passion for food with his lust for adventure. On the first episode Donnie Rush set a Guinness World Record for Most 12-inch Pizzas stretched, sauced, cheesed and fired in one hour by making 142. That is one pizza every 25 seconds. To aid in his quest, Blumer assembles a dream team of Toronto pizza maestros. But when it comes time to go for the record in front of a live audience at Toronto‘s Corso Italia Festival, he is all on his own.
