Liz and Rebecca continue their discussion on scientific testing of mediums, which the two have a different perspective on. Rebecca thinks that psychic medium readings are about love, which can be hard to measure. She also thinks that they are often subjective, what will resonate with a person. Liz thinks the love coming through in medium readings is not that important. To her it is more about data and accuracy, which provide evidence that we do survive bodily death.

They also talk about "The Amazing Randi," the stage magician who posed the million dollar challenge to anyone who demonstrated evidence of psychic, mediumship, or any "paranormal" abilities. Liz explains why that challenge is not actually what it seems to be and why it really does not matter that no one has ever passed it.

Rebecca shares some of her experiences with physical mediumship. That is when a medium actually becomes taken over and "possessed" by a deceased person. She has had some fascinating experiences while trying to perform physical mediumship, but has never actually been fully accomplished it. She has never seen anyone accomplish this full possession either. Liz shares that she has gone to seances to observe physical mediumship, but it was a complete fraud and carnival show. Rebecca and Liz both agree that if a medium could be completely taken over by someone who has passed away, that would be any grieving person's dream.

Rebecca also gives some warnings and tips on how to avoid being conned and tricked by people who pretend to be mediums on social media. She shares that she has been impersonated a few times. But she does want to remind everyone there really are genuine and ethical mediums as well.
