  • Weekly

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.

    How Do You Raise Kids Who Don’t Follow the Crowd?

    Send us Fan Mail Caroline vows not to say the F word. It goes about as well as you’d expect. Then we get serious about one of the hardest parts of parenting right now: raising kids who think for themselves when the crowd is bigger, louder and more online than ever, and when that crowd insists it’s the moral one. We break down the “woke” acronym from Bethany Mandel’s interview on Hank Unplugged, debate how history should be taught (facts first, then the argument), and share a 2025 study showing reading for pleasure has fallen about 40% in 20 years. Eva brings Ron Hassner’s research on students who chanted “from the river to the sea” until they saw a map. Plus our meme of the week from Paris, Caroline’s son’s legendary mid-game trash talk, and what we actually do at home to raise upstanders, not bystanders.

    Can You Teach Funny? Estee Stimler & Lana Saffrin Betesh on Comedy, Grief, Yiddish and Smother

    Send us Fan Mail Estee Stimler’s mom is a Holocaust survivor, and Estee says that’s exactly why she’s funny. Her uncle created the New York City Marathon, and he used to come to Friday night dinner to eat meat while telling everyone he was vegetarian. Estee is a playwright, musical theatre writer, dramaturg and future comedy PhD. She joins Caroline in the new Miami studio. Lana Saffrin Betesh, a former lawyer, Jewish community leader and documentary producer, joins Eva virtually from London. We talk about whether funny can be taught, the Mercutio effect, why a stage show needs heart in a way Seinfeld never did, and Smother, Estee’s new comedy about a Jewish mother who comes back from the dead to get her daughter married. Lana shares how she rebuilt her life after losing her husband at 34, and why she’s now putting her energy into joyful Jewish storytelling. Then it’s a Yiddish lightning round, the Borscht Belt, and a Meme of the Week that asks the only question that matters: who is Donna?

    I'm Not Antisocial, I'm Anti–Step and Repeat

    Send us Fan Mail Eva wore sneakers to an Oscar de la Renta charity luncheon, and Caroline has thoughts. We get into the social BS that happens in real life, not just online: charity galas, retail philanthropy math, the gala flex, why teens have it harder with Snap Maps, Will Storr's The Status Game, joining boards to get into private school, and whether motive matters if the money is real.

    On Politics, 'Oops' Moments, and the Surplus Elite

    Send us Fan Mail Eva and Caroline go all in on American politics this week — a full hour tracing how the Democratic and Republican parties got to where they are today, from the Clinton and Reagan eras through to now. They get personal about their own political journeys, including a confession about a 2016 vote that wasn't exactly popular among friends at the time, and what actually changed after October 7th. The conversation moves through antisemitism and why it's a warning sign worth everyone's attention, the "surplus elite" theory of why so many overeducated, high-achieving people are drawn toward the far left, the role social media plays in deepening our echo chambers, and a candid, personal take on losing friendships over who voted for whom.

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

    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 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.

    The Art of Jewish Joy (with Amanda Kingloff)

    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." 0:00 Welcome 0:13 Meet Amanda Kingloff — craft stylist & author 2:31 Why Grown-Ups Forget How to Play 6:23 Halloween Costumes & the DIY Shelf Wall 8:08 October 7th and Finding Her Way Back to Judaism 10:47 The Yom Kippur Ritual in the Park 15:22 The Book Reveal: The Art of Jewish Joy 19:33 Why We Cover the Challah 20:17 Sukkot: The Unharvested Corners 21:28 Back to Crafting: Mind Maps & Painted Shabbat Rocks 24:08 "Achievement Sheep" 28:05 The Camp Award Story 28:56 Renaming the Holidays: Self-Reflection, Shining Bright & Grit and Grace 32:18 Wrap-Up & Where to Find the Book The Art of Jewish Joy is out now from Chronicle Books. https://www.chroniclebooks.com/products/art-of-jewish-joy?srsltid=AfmBOoqvL5Dqy0WX9DUxcXkpL_ZasyahTTje2GehaYjSAD4PnPRRRN79 Find Amanda at @amandakingloff and Suzy at @suzyultman.

About

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.
