YouTuber Launches Podcast to Honor His Girlfriend’s Final Wish

Before the tragic passing of his girlfriend, Natalie Clark, from a foodborne illness, Billy LeBlanc had promised her he would launch a podcast. In the wake of her death, he is now actively seeking a co-host to help realize her dream.

In July, the popular YouTuber Billy LeBlanc took to his social media platforms to announce the heartbreaking news of Natalie Clark’s death, which followed her illness due to consuming raw oysters.

LeBlanc, who had also eaten the oysters, faced serious health complications himself, resulting in a coma lasting 12 days. “We enjoyed oysters together, and shortly afterward, we both began feeling unwell. Then, I awoke to find she was gone,” he shared.

Upon addressing his audience after Clark’s passing, LeBlanc revealed that she had one enduring wish: for him to create a podcast and continue producing engaging content.

In pursuit of this goal, LeBlanc is now on the lookout for a podcast co-host, expressing his desire to bring Clark’s vision to life. “Natalie always encouraged me to start a podcast,” he shared with his audience of 209K subscribers on YouTube.

He clarified, “I can’t run a podcast alone, so I’ve been searching for someone who might be interested. If anyone has experience with remote podcasting, I’m currently based in Louisiana,” he noted.

While still in search of the right co-host, LeBlanc took the time to read through questions that Clark had previously penned for him to answer in his debut podcast episode. Noting his current situation, he chose to honor her wishes by sharing his insights and responses on YouTube.

The first question she posed was, “What has made it challenging for you to start a podcast?” He elaborated that having a co-host is essential, emphasizing that the chemistry and interaction between hosts significantly enhance the show’s appeal.

As LeBlanc continues his quest for the ideal podcast partner, he remains active on YouTube, sharing glimpses of his life.

Despite a devoted following, entering the podcasting realm means he will be up against prominent figures like Hailey “Hawk Tuah” Welch, Joe Rogan, and Jake Paul.
