Some people have a knack for painting, singing, or sports. But a select few, like Tyler Henry, can communicate with the dead. Tyler is a medium, acting as an intermediary between the living and the departed through one-on-one sessions as well as his latest Netflix show, ‘Live From The Other Side.’ Tyler and Ricki talk about her guest appearance on his show, and what it was like to read for Tyler's first celebrity client, actress Sarah Paulson. He also tells Ricki the origin story behind his gift and how we can all connect to a deeper, intuitive state of being.

Being a pop culture fan naturally comes with a lot of opinions. You’ve got your favorites and you’re ready to defend your picks at a moment’s notice. But who’s right, and who’s just plain wrong? That’s what Pop Culture Debate Club is here to decide. Each week, two notable mega-fans square off, ready to convince host Ronald Young Jr. that their opinion on TV, movies, music, and more is the only one that matters. And after carefully considering all the arguments, Ronald picks a winner. Will you agree with him?

This week, we’re debating which political TV show is better: Veep or The West Wing? Two familiar voices square off this week, with former host Aminatou Sow returning to argue on behalf of Veep and previous guest Hrishikesh Hirway taking the side of The West Wing. This is not going to be an easy decision for host Ronald Young Jr. to make! Aminatou says that recent political headlines prove that Veep is a realistic portrayal of American politics, warts and all, while The West Wing is a liberal fantasy. Hrishi contends that The West Wing wasn’t meant to be realistic and was rather an incredibly entertaining TV show, and that Veep’s satire became too biting to be enjoyable. Which show will Ronald cast his vote for?
