Listen for free

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.

  • The Art Went First — Saying Goodbye to New York
    Jun 18 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    The movers came for the art first. Caroline's apartment walls are bare, the iconic portrait is boxed up and Miami-bound, and the move that's been theoretical for months just got very, very real.

    Eva walks in and both of them feel it — this is the end of something. What follows is one of their most honest conversations yet: about June as the cruelest month, about grieving things that aren't technically gone, about whether you can ever actually be present for the moments that matter most. Eva's middle son just graduated. Caroline is packing up a New York life. They're both in it.

    This episode goes deep on the pace of modern life, the one-third of Americans on SSRIs statistic, why Shabbat might be onto something, what New York City does and doesn't give you anymore, and Ferris Bueller's surprisingly correct take on time. Plus Mitch Hedberg, the rubber band marriage theory, and a kindergarten report card that explains everything about Caroline.

    Funny, sad, and very M&M. Don't miss this one.

    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.

  • She Dressed E. Jean Carroll: Stylist Jessie Freschl on Fashion, Confidence & the Psychology of Your Closet
    Jun 11 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    What does getting dressed actually say about you? This week Eva and Caroline sit down with Jessie Freschl — entrepreneur, personal stylist, and founder of three businesses — for a conversation about fashion that keeps going somewhere deeper than anyone expected.

    Jessie built her career working with women at every stage of life: new mothers whose bodies had shifted, professionals stepping into bigger roles, women who simply needed someone to be present with them in the most private room in their home. Her nonprofit Repurpose takes luxury excess and redirects it to students entering fashion and creative industries. Her newest company, Turnstile, is a tech platform helping women unlock the potential of the closets they already have.

    And then there's the E. Jean Carroll story — given 48 hours notice, asked to dress Carroll for her trial against President Trump, and pulling from her own nonprofit's resale inventory because no designer labels were allowed in that courtroom.

    The conversation covers the psychology of styling, mirror meditation, how bodies change from your twenties to your fifties and what clothes can do about it, conscious consumption versus fast fashion, and what it really means to let someone into your closet — which is almost always also letting them into your life.

    Also covered: Golda Meir's Milwaukee roots, the movie Chef, sweatpants as surrender, and what Eva ate before recording that everyone immediately noticed.

    Unfiltered. Unafraid. Unexpert. New episodes every Thursday.

  • Motherhood, Marriage, and the Man Who Bought the Gift 32 Minutes Before Dinner
    Jun 4 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    No guest this week -- just Eva and Caroline, completely unplanned and fully themselves. Caroline spent Mother's Day schlepping to Boston and clocking the timestamp on a gift purchased exactly 32 minutes before dinner. And her dog ate the one piece that makes the entire vacuum-sealed coat bag functional, and in that moment, she understood her marriage perfectly. Their husbands are the hook. They are everything underneath it.

    This episode covers the full emotional range of modern motherhood: the Mother's Day receipt audit, Jeremy's stress-test triumph, the case for Shabbat dinner, past-life regression, parallel play in marriage and why the phone is destroying it.

    Word of the week is factotum — Latin for do everything, also another word for mom.
