Our Story

Built for Founders

Who We Are

The Club MCR

We built The Club MCR because we saw too many brilliant business owners with powerful stories struggling to produce content that matched their calibre.

A great podcast shouldn't require a production degree. It should be as simple as showing up, having a conversation, and walking away knowing everything else is handled.

That's what we built. A fully managed studio in the heart of Manchester, designed specifically for founders, entrepreneurs, and business leaders who want professional content without the complexity.

Our Mission

"To make professional podcast production as accessible as booking a meeting — so every founder with a story worth telling can tell it properly."

Who We Work With
  • Business owners & entrepreneurs
  • Corporate teams & brands
  • Coaches & consultants
  • Thought leaders & speakers
  • Charities & non-profits
