The Baron of Botox

  • Summary

  • Over two decades, Dr. Fredric Brandt went from a small dermatology practice in Miami to being Madonna's personal skincare consultant and the go-to for public figures desperate to stave off aging. His clients loved him. Fashion magazines profiled him. But as Brandt continued to build his empire—a best-selling product line, pristine homes in New York and Miami, and an absurd modern art collection—he was slowly becoming addicted to his own product. Popular speculation has it that it was Martin Short's scathing portrayal of a clearly-based-on-Brandt character in the 'Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt' that pushed him to his death, but the truth is far more complicated. From Justine Harman and the team behind 'Broken Harts.'

One of the most boring podcasts I've every heard

I listen to alot of podcasts. Anything that's a season or more long single story. A good podcast will make you interested in the story even if it's not in your field of interests. This is not one of them. Maybe if you are really into celebrity and beauty magazines you might find this interesting. I can't imagine it, but maybe. I don't care about this guy. I don't care about his life and the podcaster did no succeed in convincing me that this was an interesting topic.
