Historical Adventures for a Global Audience

Challenge

Bros of Decay led by Belgium-based creator Lesley Houben, documents abandoned castles and sacred sites around the world in English. Each video requires significant research and travel, leaving little time to expand into new markets. Lesley tried YouTube’s default dubbing, but it lacked authenticity and didn’t sound like him.

Solution

Linguana offered a zero-effort, high-quality dubbing solution that preserved Lesley’s voice, tone, and style. While he focused on his main channel, Linguana built and launched five fully localized channels - Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian, and German. Within weeks, they were outperforming the original.

18 million views on the new language channels from localized content in first few months

98,000 subscribers across new language channels

“Since partnering with Linguana, my content has reached entirely new audiences I never thought possible. What really sets Linguana apart is how authentic the dubbing sounds. Unlike YouTube’s default dubbing, which didn’t sound like me at all, Linguana’s version captures my tone, energy, and personality. My audience loves it."
