PROBLEM
Take Fucking Risks has quickly become the largest creative event series in London.
With the event’s ever-growing popularity, we soon wanted to spread the TFR message to an even wider audience, and an event every 3 months just wasn’t cutting it.
How could we spread the message further? By comin’ in your ears.
PROCESS
Introducing TFR: The Podcast.
We needed to take a leaf out of our own book, and take a fucking risk. With no experience and no equipment, we started at the very bottom. From recording the first podcast on a church pew, to decking out our meeting room into a banging recording studio, we’ve come a long way.
Hosted by OG risk taker Mr Paul Mellor, and TFR Queen Cookie Tabinor, the pair drink a bottle of bubbly and delve into the past and present of some of the biggest names within the creative industry.
RISKS TAKEN
The podcasts, like the events, started as an idea in the pub. We had to start completely from scratch, which coincidentally brought along a bunch of new challenges.
We’ve gone through enough sound-proofing gear to sink a ship, physically built a recording studio in our offices and are now recording with people all over the the world.
It’s growing fast, and we’re working our way up to the top of the podcast charts.
RESULTS
5,000 LISTENS per episode.
2,381 SHARES since the first podcast release.
BIG FUCKING NEWS
In May 2019 Spotify For Creatives became the official sponsor of TFR: The Podcast. They first came to a Take Fucking Risks events in Sept 2017, and have been big fans since.
With their inherent creativity and conscious effort to go against the grain, we couldn’t be happier with the partnership. We’re planning some ’UGE things together, watch this space.
