Bert the Conqueror

Bert Kreischer is determined to visit the most dangerous and insane high-thrill rides and adventures in America.

Man v Food

Adam Richman is passionate about food, which makes him the perfect host for Man v Food. He travels from city to city all over the US to take on food challenges everywhere. He’s battled the hottest curry in New York, the hottest ramen in Los Angeles, the 11-lb. Carnivore Pizza Challenge in Atlanta, the Big Badass 6-lb burrito challenge in Las Vegas, the Acme Oyster House 180 oyster challenge and the Firebrand Chili Challenge in Springfield, among others. He ‘s lost some fights but triumphed over others. Few people can and will attempt what Adam Richman is doing for Man v Food. Just last season, at the finale, he challenged himself to finish a 48-oz steak in just 20 minutes. Crazy? You gotta be to even try any of these challenges.

Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern

Traveling to different places all over the world, Andrew Zimmern not only tries the local cuisine, he also tries the city’s most bizarre dishes, no matter how eccentric or gross they can be. He’s discovered banana beer and cow’s blood in Tanzania, eaten termites in Uganda, tried pickled bull’s heart in St. Petersburg, sampled seven courses of snake in Vietnam, relaxed in a beer spa in Germany and ate an 18-day old duck embryo, in the Philippines. He’ll try anything at least once and will go back for seconds (or thirds) if he likes it. Have you got the courage to try and eat the bizarre and unfamiliar?
