You have thought it. We said it. Out loud. On a microphone. For everyone.

Mic'd and Medicated is Caroline and Eva — two married moms in New York City who refuse to pretend everything is fine. Every week they sit on the couch and get into the conversations most women are having in their heads but nowhere else. Marriage. Motherhood. Ambition. Aging. Identity. Politics. Sex. Money. The things you think about at 2AM that you would never say at a dinner party.

They overshare on purpose. Because every time they say the thing nobody is supposed to say, someone writes in and says — I thought I was the only one. You are not the only one. That is the whole point.

Guests range from reproductive endocrinologists to celebrity jewelers to politicians to parenting experts who are also, like everyone else, completely figuring it out as they go.

Funny. Honest. Occasionally chaotic. Always real.

This is not a podcast for women who have it together. This is a podcast for women who are done pretending they do.

New episodes every Thursday. Unfiltered. Unafraid. Unexpert.

  • Stop Doing Everything Yourself, with Alison Fragale

    Stop Doing Everything Yourself, with Alison Fragale

    Organizational psychologist Alison Fragale (author of Likable Badass) explains why hiring help is essential for your sanity, not a luxury. She breaks down how she outsources childcare, cleaning, and errands without the guilt, why she hires a "third parent" instead of a nanny, and how to give feedback to the people who help you.

    In this episode:

    • Why you should always go first in a negotiation (the $300 couch)
    • Why going "in the red" on childcare can be an investment
    • The market reframe: you're not exploiting anyone by hiring help
    • How to hire a "third parent" and give feedback to people who work in your home
    • Why 80% done by someone else is a win
    • Why to keep a bench of five sitters, and overpay them
    • Why earning your own income doesn't end the "why do we need this?" argument, and what it does change

    We’re two New York City women talking candidly about the chaos of modern life, from relationships, parenting, working in and out of the home, to what it takes to stay semi-sane in a world that expects you to hold it all together and be #blessed.

    We couldn’t find an honest and vulnerable conversation — so we started one! If you need a laugh, a cry, or just want to hear someone else admit their flaws and validate your crazy, you’re in the right place. Be ready to be… Unfiltered, Unafraid, and UnExpert.

  • College Drop Off: You've Forever Lost Your Baby Living Under Your Roof

    College Drop Off: You've Forever Lost Your Baby Living Under Your Roof
    2026/09/17

    Send us Fan Mail

    This week Caroline is still getting the hang of driving in Miami, which somehow opens into the real subject of the episode: a week full of milestones. Caroline's son Teddy turned 10 — double digits, closer to college than to the day he was born — and Eva just finished dropping her second son off at college. Eva and Caroline talk through why the second college goodbye is harder than the first, the pressure to perform a "perfect dorm room" online, and a reframe from Claude that changed how Caroline thinks about mom guilt: being present isn't a character trait; it's a battery, and nobody runs on full all the time. Along the way: a very good Uber story, a case for "benign neglect," and why Miami parenting anxiety looks nothing like New York City parenting anxiety.

    Eva's book of the week is Culpability, by Bruce Holsinger, about who's responsible when a self-driving car crashes with a teenager behind the wheel, and her new favorite phrase is "slowmaxxing" — the art of a slow, unhurried morning.

    Chapters:
    0:00 Welcome & Miami Driving Chaos
    3:46 The Milestones: Teddy Turns 10 & Sandy Goes to College
    10:18 Why the Second Goodbye Hits Harder
    16:34 Being Present Isn't a Character Trait — It's a Battery
    18:15 Mom Guilt, Benign Neglect & Growing Up in NYC vs. Miami
    23:55 The Best Uber Ride Ever (More Miami Driving Mishaps)
    25:44 Word of the Week: Slow Maxing
    29:27 Self-Driving Cars & Our Book of the Week: Culpability
    32:16 Wrap-Up & Goodbyes

  • The Art of Jewish Joy (with Amanda Kingloff)

    The Art of Jewish Joy (with Amanda Kingloff)
    2026/09/10

    Send us Fan Mail

    This week we're joined by Amanda Kingloff — craft stylist, former Lifestyle Director at Parents magazine, founder of ProjectKid, and author of the new book The Art of Jewish Joy: Crafts and Activities for Celebration and Connection (Chronicle Books), co-written with Suzy Ultman.

    We talk about why grown-ups forget how to play, what it means to "unlearn" the conventional use of a bottle cap, and how Amanda went from a pre-med, photography-major mindset to building a career out of arts and crafts. Then we get into the real heart of it: how October 7th sent Amanda back into her own Jewish identity, why she and her husband quietly walked away from synagogue-based Judaism as adults, and how she and Suzy built a book that renames every holiday chapter after the value inside it — the Art of Self-Reflection (Rosh Hashanah/Yom Kippur), the Art of Shining Bright (Hanukkah), the Art of Honoring Freedom (Passover), the Art of Grit and Grace (Purim).

    Also covered: the Sukkot tradition of leaving the corners of a field unharvested for the poor, why you cover the challah before kiddush, Amanda's daughter's snow-globe Halloween costume, and Eva's new favorite phrase, "achievement cheap."
