        "content": "Jason figured out early on that he didn\u2019t have the face for TV\u2014so he settled for radio instead. At 10 years old, he blagged his way onto a kids\u2019 show at 2CR, his local station in Bournemouth, and he\u2019s been hooked on broadcasting ever since.\n\nOf course, the road to radio wasn\u2019t straight. He tried printing, driving big yellow buses, and even selling shoes (don\u2019t ask about the returns policy), before finally landing his dream job behind the mic.\n\nBefore joining BFBS, Jason worked on The Breeze in Southampton and for the station serving Blandford & Shaftesbury, then called Midwest Radio. He even wore two hats\u2014Breakfast Presenter and Programme Controller\u2014at Dorset\u2019s commercial radio station Wessex FM, when it bagged not one, but two shiny Arqiva awards in the same year.\n\nNow back in Blandford with BFBS, Jason says it feels like \u201ccoming home\u201d\u2014though without anyone asking him to take the bins out. At home, he\u2019s married to Dawn, proud dad to Lydia and Imogen, and full-time servant to Dame Mary Berry, the family\u2019s pre-loved cat.",
