Re: The Long Island Medium
I have never watched Long Island medium but what follows is a 100% true story

Back in 1981 I was in college on the eastern end of long island. My roommate and I went to a local bar that was about empty.

A woman in her 40's came in alone so we invited her to sit with us and we started chatting.

She told us she was in town because her daughter had gotten married at city hall, she was divorced from daughter's dad and didn't want to sit in her room alone.

After a couple drinks she told us she was psychic. We reacted as most people would "wow, cool, awesome"

She replied, "no it's hell. I pick up everyone's problems and guardians and it's dreadful"

At this point my roommate got skeptical and said "Okay well tell us about her"(and pointed at me)

The woman looked at me and said "Your father's dead" My roommate laughed and said "I've met her dad"

I had to confess, "no you haven't my bio dad died when I was 6 months old" ( I was at an age where this wasn't info I shared because people always got uncomfortable and I honestly didn't remember him)

The woman continued
"your father is your guardian angel, he has saved you life on three occasions, once when you were 2 and almost drowned in the ocean, once when you were 4 and were almost hit by a car and once when you were 12 and had a gun pointed at your head."

All of the things she said had happened.

She then proceeded to hit my roommate with a bunch of facts about her life and family. she didn't ask for money, hell she wouldn't even let us buy her drinks. We spent the rest of the night talking about her daughter's wedding and other nonsense and the psychic stuff was dropped. But I have never forgotten about her and I totally believe.

Re: The Long Island Medium
I used to watch the show

until it became more about the family
the daughter and her dates, her getting her first car, going off to college.
And Larry Jr doesnt even live there, why is he on the show?

too many egos and not enough psychic stuff there...

but the psychic stuff rocks

Re: The Long Island Medium
I just watched several videos of her, like the Oz video and I've seen several episodes. After studying her body language and behavior and also watching some videos catching her failing and being deceptive, I must say I'm more and more confident she's just a fake.

I do believe in the psychic phenomenon, however. Her show just reminds me of Criss Angel's in a lot of ways and he's really deceptive with his illusion business as well. At least he's honest that it's an illusion, however, but they do lie a ton on those shows it seems.

Fantastic story! Thnak you for sharing it! :)

Someone on the thread mentioned her being on Dr. OZ so I had to look up the video for the episode, it looks like she was on twice. The second time they did a brain scan. they took a base reading then again when she was doing a reading.

Pretty amazing results! It shows a marked difference in the activity of her brain.

She is such a character, what an amazing personality she has, so funny! Loved when she said she was more worried about her hair than the results. Haha!

Just watched Part one. Gonna watch the other later. I must say, though, she jumped right into classic cold reading techniques and I'm extremely skeptical of her legitimacy at this point.

No one has replied about visiting longislandmediumfake.com exposing her for being a fake! Any opinions on this?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 42634926


There are 5 videos, the first isn't much and can look like cold reading techniques, if you have not watched her shows from the beginning to now.

Also the brain scan shows a huge difference in her brain wave action when she is reading someone. Are you trying to give constructive critique? If so you have to delve deeper than just this surface.

Re: The Long Island Medium
She's the real deal. Most everyone has potential to do this stuff, but we all develop uniquely, and this particular set of skills also develops uniquely. Like everyone has their own way of walking.

We can learn a lot from her in learning to apply our own gifts for the greater good. Also we can learn a lot from her in being humble enough to stay open to new learning.

I have done a lot of "sampling" in the way of psychics and will tell you The Long Island Medium is neither the BEST psychic nor the most able to evoke change. There is a lot she doesn't know. But that's what is great.

The doctor said that kind of activity is common when you experience high anxiety. Could she be extremely nervous in large venue readings?

Re: The Long Island Medium
Yes it's fake, I remember yapping to catch one with some kid and it was his sister that died I believe, and just the way he was speaking alone was so scripted, not to mention seen many of the m produce no tears while crying watch closer. Sry

Re: The Long Island Medium
bump

I'd like more opinions on her, please.

I have a really strong feeling she's a fake, but some people I know still say she gets some details that are impossible and I'd like it if this conversation continued!

Thanks!
