It's time to talk about botox. You’ve heard of it. You probably have an opinion about it. And if you’re like most people, that opinion is either mildly intrigued but vaguely terrified or convinced it turns people into expressionless lizard-human hybrids.

But what if I told you… you’re wrong?

Welcome to botox COWBOYS, the podcast where two small-town Alberta boys—Dr. Andrew Dargie, a former emergency medicine head turned global aesthetics guru, and Tyler Brooker, his skeptical, wrinkle-ridden best friend—take on the myths, the misconceptions, and the downright nonsensical hysteria surrounding botox and cosmetic treatments.

Let's start here: botox is not a villain. It does not make you look like you’re permanently surprised by your own reflection. It is just a neurotoxin that relaxes muscles. That’s it. That’s the whole thing. It’s been around for decades, it’s used for everything from migraines to excessive sweating, and yet it still carries more stigma than a bachelor’s degree in puppetry.

Why are men, in particular, so weird about it? Why do we treat skincare like it’s some kind of weakness, while happily spending hundreds of dollars on beard oil and protein powder that may or may not just be ground-up disappointment in a tub?

Remember this: you already do things to maintain your appearance. You get haircuts. You shave. You wear deodorant so people don’t recoil when you lift your arms. This is just another tool in your toolkit.

So saddle up, inject some knowledge straight into your brain wrinkles, and hit play. Because looking good shouldn’t feel bad.
