The Moorcast Story
When our Founder, Christian Rikong created Moorcast in 2017, he was simply trying to solve for a simple but frustrating problem:
How could he find more Afro centric content (video, audio) and programming on topics (i.e. Business, News, Sports, Technology, etc) he loved
and that he could have in one place and listen to continuously while doing other activities (i.e. running, working, etc) ?
100,000 users and countless cups of coffee later, we feel like we’ve finally built a good solution: MOORCAST 2.0 . We’ve invested
in AI (artificial intelligence), complex algorithms and robust recommendation engines that power our entire platform.
With more than 1 million episodes in our library and a full suite of tools geared toward discovery, we’re confident that Moorcast will help
you find more of what you love in terms Afro Centric Podcasts.
