Listen "The Truth about Tyler Henry's Reading of Moby by Susan Gerbic"
Episode Synopsis
Susan Gerbic exposes Tyler Henry's "Hollywood Medium" as a combination of hot and cold reading, motivated sitters, and clever editing rather than genuine communication with the dead. By using readily available information—often from Wikipedia—and interpreting vague statements to elicit reactions, Henry creates the illusion of accuracy, while the show's editing and production amplify the emotional impact for viewers.
