About this listen

Welcome to Mic’d and Medicated.

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.

  • We're Back, We're Unhinged, and One of Us Might Be Moving to Miami
    Apr 16 2026

    Season 2 is here — and we have a big reveal that we are absolutely not telling you in the description because we have finally learned something about marketing.

    What we will tell you: New York is giving Detroit energy, other cities are looking very sexy right now, and we just paid our taxes so emotions are running high.

    This season we are smarter, funnier, and slightly more plugged in than before — which, to be fair, is a low bar. We've added Eva's SAT Word of the Week, Caroline's Favorite Meme of the Week, and a Dear Abby segment because apparently we give advice now.

    We also had a When Harry Met Sally moment and realized we are both Sallys. The worst kind of woman. High maintenance who thinks she's low maintenance. If you know, you know.

    Eva actually cares about fashion this year. Caroline is trying to listen more but still cannot physically stop herself mid-joke. Growth is non-linear.

    We are anything but anodyne. Don't google that word. Just hit play.

  • Why Most Podcasts Fail (And How We Made 55 Episodes Anyway)
    Apr 9 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    We did it. Season 1 of our podcast is officially complete—and somehow, two self-proclaimed “techtards” made it to 55 episodes.

    From recording our first episode with no audio to convincing ourselves we understand mics, lighting, editing, and social media…this has been chaos, growth, and a lot of laughs.

    In this Season 1 finale, we’re reflecting on:

    • The highs, the lows, and our favorite mean comments (honestly, some of you are very creative)
    • What we’ve learned about motherhood, work, and showing up online
    • How we’d describe each other (from ChatGPT’s POV…which was maybe too accurate)
    • Why Caroline interrupts everything—and why Eva brings it back (eventually)
    • And yes…whether the camera actually adds 10 pounds or just exposes us

    We also talk about what it really takes to keep going when most podcasts quit before episode 10—and why we didn’t.

    Eva went from barely opening Instagram to finding life advice in memes, and Caroline went from tech-challenged to full-blown content producer (CapCut and Canva in the house).

    If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, imperfect, or like you’re just figuring it out as you go, this episode is for you.

    And…this isn’t just a finale. Eva and Caroline are just getting started. There are new exciting changes coming in Season 2.

    Let’s just say…this chaos might be heading somewhere sunnier 🌴

    Grab an expensive tequila, laugh with us, and thank you for being part of this with us.

  • Can Women Have It All? | Burnout, Trad Wives & Motherhood
    Mar 26 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    Most women are burnt out trying to do it all—career, family, self—and somehow still feel like they’re failing at every turn. So we have to ask… is “having it all” actually real, or is it the biggest lie we’ve been sold?

    In this episode of Mic’d and Medicated, we sit down (again) with Flavia Masson—screenwriter, artist, and a married woman who chose not to have children—to rip apart the pressure women face to be everything to everyone.

    Because no matter what you choose, it somehow feels like you lose:
    Married, no career = not successful
    Career, no kids = not successful
    Career + kids = bad mom
    Single with a big career = still judged

    So what exactly are we all chasing?

    We get into the rise of the “trad wife” movement (yes, the sourdough, barefoot-in-the-kitchen fantasy), and why more women are opting out of the chaos of trying to do it all—and instead choosing to do one thing really well.

    Flavia says it best: life isn’t a buffet, it’s a fixed menu. If you pick the fish, you’re not getting the chicken. And maybe the real problem is we’ve been told we should want both.

    We talk about:

    • Why “having it all” might actually mean doing everything halfway
    • The societal pressure and judgment women face no matter what they choose
    • How women became their own harshest critics
    • The mental load, burnout, and unrealistic expectations of modern life
    • Why clarity on your priorities matters more than chasing perfection
    • How to actually build a life that feels good (not just looks good)

    Whether you’re a mom, a career woman, questioning everything, or just exhausted from trying to juggle 10 balls at once, this episode will make you feel seen, validated, and a lot less alone.

    Because maybe the goal isn’t to have it all…maybe it’s to choose what actually matters—and own it.
