The Highest Art Form: Humor as Armor, Survival, and Style

Send us Fan MailEva and Caroline sit down with Flavia Masson—native New Yorker of Italian and French descent, comedian, fashion girl, and film writer—for a candid, hilarious, and unexpectedly profound conversation about humor.Flavia opens up about always seeing herself reflected in TV and film characters—think Charlotte from Sex and the City meets Emily in Paris, with a dash of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. She has lived in Paris, worked at Chanel, converted to Judaism, and spent time chasing truth (and laughs) as a stand-up comic.Together, they unpack humor as a salve, how it may be the highest art form, and why comedy has always been complicated—and powerful—for women.Thoughtful and laugh-out-loud funny, this episode feels like hanging out with your smartest, funniest friends—who also happen to be very well dressed. 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.Please follow, like, review, and share the podcast with your family and friends!Follow us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/micdandmedicated and YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@MicdMedicated/podcastsSubscribe to our Substack: https://substack.com/@micdandmedicatedCheck out our website: micdandmedicated.comSurgeon General Warning Disclaimer: We are self-prescribed unexperts, so if you have any real questions or need real advice, please call your nearest doctor.© 2025 Eva Heyman & Caroline Leventhal
