Max Burkholder (Johnny Bennett) and Giorgia Whigham (Blair) join Pop Culture Unplugged w/ Elias to talk about Season 2 of the hit Peacock comedy Ted and how the characters continue to evolve in the outrageous 90s-set world of the show.

Meanwhile, Giorgia dives into Blair’s influence on Johnny and Ted, describing how her character acts as both a grounding force and someone who pushes them to do better.
