The Fellas Studios is a British audio and video based podcasting production company based in London and was founded in 2023 by YouTubers Callum Airey (Calfreezy) and Joshua Larkin (The Burnt Chip).[1][2]

The company produces many top UK podcasts hosted by social media influencers and TV personalities. Some of these podcasts include Saving Grace with GK Barry,[3][4] The Fellas with Calfreezy and The Burnt Chip,[2][5] Growing Paynes with Behzinga and Faith Kelly[6] and Chloe Vs The World with Chloe Burrows.[2][7]

History[edit]

The Fellas Studios was founded in 2021, shortly after the launch of its flagship and self-titled podcast The Fellas hosted by founders Callum Airey and Joshua Larkin. Due to the success of the podcast, the pair were able to launch further podcasts hosted by various creators and personalities, the first of which being Pitchside, which saw YouTubers Theo Baker, Tom Garratt and Reev[8] discussing football-related content and doing watchalongs on livestreams, one of which would go viral after host Tom Garratt snapped his arm while competing in an arm wrestle with co-host Theo Baker.[9]

The production house saw a £1.5 million investment from fellow online creators KSI as well as the UK YouTube group the Sidemen in 2023. Other investors included in the deal were WillNE, ChrisMD and Callux.[2]

Airey, co-founder, stated in 2023 that the business "wanted to shift away from how podcasts were traditionally structured for creators and build not only individual shows but entire brands" and that the large investments were "massive vindication of what we set out to do when we launched Fellas Studios back in 2021".[2] Elliott Hackney, COO, also stated the investment allows them to "change the landscape even more than we already have [...] we’ve showed that the old podcast format is tired – video is a must, as is creating a brand around the talent and the show".

Other projects[edit]

In March 2024, the Fellas launched a subscription service and mobile app, titled Fellas Loaded where they would post exclusive content.[10][11]
