Meet Jason Glover
I grew up surrounded by a boisterous Greek and German family that loved celebrating life with great food, music, and lots of laughter. I started cooking at a young age after learning a few basics from my mom and grandmother. Even then, I was expected to pitch in and get things started in the kitchen if my mom was coming home late from work. The goal was always the same: get dinner on the table so my brothers and I could eat together with our mom and dad. We’d share our day, laugh, argue, and tease each other, it felt just like the “Brady Bunch.”
A Change In Life & Responsibility
After high school, I started pursuing acting and comedy and then focused on sales and video production. I soon entered the tech world and was caught in the dot.com bust. At that point, I was married and my wife was pregnant with our son, Corbin. I quickly realized my job was to take care of the house and that meant figuring out how to feed my family – meals that made them really happy after a long day!
On The Search For Other Dad's That cook
So I started talking to other dads about the meals they like to make and an idea was born: Create a community of like-minded dads who love to cook and want to share their ideas. Now, I’m on a mission: I’m going around the country – and even sometimes, the world – looking for dads who know how to cook and create incredible meals for their families. I want to be in the kitchen with these dads… cooking, laughing and learning new recipes that will inspire me and other dads to create amazing meals for our families too.
My Family Is My Foundation
What can I say? My wife Michelle and my son Corbin are the best part of my life. I can’t imagine my life without them. We love to laugh at each other’s jokes (mostly mine), travel together, try out new sports, go to a beach any chance we get, listen to music, and of course hang out in the kitchen together. When I see their smiles after I finish cooking up some good grub, it’s the best feeling. I would do anything to make sure they’re happy campers at the dinner table!
Michelle is one of the hardest workers I know. She’s smart, caring, and always willing to go the extra mile for the people she loves. She built her career in the corporate world before moving into consulting, and she continues to pursue her passion for storytelling with the goal of becoming a full-time novelist and screenwriter.
Corbin, our son, has grown into an incredibly driven and talented young man, and I couldn’t be more proud. He’s mastered the violin, both acoustic and electric, and has taken his talent to the global stage as an international DJ, producer, and performer, blending classical roots with modern sound. He’s also been speaking Mandarin since he was young, which still amazes me. He works hard, stays grounded, and continues to push himself creatively.
