  • Mike and Jess welcome Seth back to discuss the seventh and final episode of season 1 of Ted, “He’s Gotta Have It.” While the episode centers on Johnny’s quest to lose his virginity before prom, it delves into much deeper themes—like why you should never sit on top of a moving vehicle.

    Join us next week for the last episode of our series, Talking Ted presented by Bear Fight Whiskey, where we’ll wrap up our thoughts on the first season of Ted, look forward to the second season, and perhaps have something special to sip on.
