The man. The myth. The legend. Just weeks out from this year's World Championship Gumbo Cookoff, culinary master Kernis Louviere is already plotting. He's talking rabbit stock, seafood gumbo and all things in between on this episode of The Gumbo Show.

The World Championship of Gumbo aka The Real Super Bowl is on Oct 8 and 9 and is right around the corner. The Greater Iberia Chamber CEO Thomas Falgout joins us for some big updates on what to expect at the event.

It's almost football season and as usual there was much discussion on gumbo season. Enjoy!

Is anything better than the Super Bowl? How about almost unlimited Super Bowls? That's what you can get at the World Championship Gumbo Cookoff in New Iberia in October. The guys are joined by the Greater Iberia Chamber of Commerce's Thomas Falgout to preview the upcoming roux-stravaganza and discuss some exciting new developments.

The Gumbo Show was one man down as host Faimon Roberts was in Hawaii of all places. Brent and Dave pushed on without him to talk about important things such as the Amber Heard vs. Johnny Depp trial, an update on Gumbo Show regular Brett Berry and of course gumbo.

On St. Patrick's Day co-host Brent Barksdale visited the world famous gumbo hotspot Courville's Catering in Beaumont, Texas. That's right, a gumbo hotspot in Beaumont, Texas. Don't believe us? I guess you just have to tune in and hear for yourself.

Politics and controversy finally infiltrate the gumbo show! Brent and Faimon get together to discuss a recent article in fivethirtyeight.com that argues that climate change is making gumbo season shorter and shorter. Also, Faimon had a gumbo-focused encounter with a relatively famous person.

It's the Mardi Gras and the guys are at parades, both from the sidewalk and from the floats. And you know what else that means? Gumbo eatin'. Dave journeyed to his homeland of Metairie and got one of his old favorites -- was it still good? And Brent traversed the entire DFW Metroplex and what he found was some great gumbos on his birthday. Finally, Faimon discovered what may be the most secret ingredient of all.

Show co-host Brent Barksdale is a middle aged man; and he has a birthday coming up. For his birthday, he is going to have a Gumborgy in which he plans to dip his spoon in a number of different bowls over the course of his birthday weekend. Several of those bowls will be courtesy of past show guest The Creole Cajun Queen which he plans to meet up with on Saturday. Happy Birthday Brent. Enjoy your gumbo Birthday Weekend.
