Why not just say "he's saying XYZ" instead of turnIng it into a question for the sitter? It may be a genuine connection but can start to look like fishing for information.
I cant say exactly how every medium receives their information from the spirits they say they are in contact with, but I know that many say that it isn't a direct word-by-word-spoken contact. Its not like a talk with someone over a cup of coffee. Many gets images "imposed on" them, and some mediums learn to have a "decoding-system" of images that are references for words, feelings, situations, etc., and when they mentally ask the spirit if they mean this-or-that they can get either strong mental impressions that this was wrong, so they mentally ask; do you mean this instead, perhaps?, and then get feelings/impressions of agreement.
It's a bit like a sort of Synesthesia I guess, when you associate a smell with a colour and a image, and you "hear" a colour, and "feel" a taste, etc. Mediums that have this kind of connection learn by trial-and-error to have a "association-library" for these impressions. They get "guided" when they communicate by getting strong impressions of being right or wrong if this or that are the correct word/situation/feeling, the spirit they communicate with, want to convey.
The more they do this kind of communication they learn this "decipher-catalogue" and they dont have to do this back-and-forth with the spirit, to make sure they interpreted it correctly. But often there is flashes of pictures/impressions they get. Like if you are in a dark room and suddenly someone fires of a flash from a camera, and all you get are this "still-frame" from a split-second image, or that just one single word comes across clearly, that they then convey. Like in the video here above, when the medium gets the word "donkeydick" (out of all the word you can imagine this comes across), and that is because this spirit he was in contact with knew that this word would resonate with his friend, The same with "pickles". Also he mentioned the car-crash-situation and gets the impressions of a red car and a image of a tiger, the same when he saw an image of a basement where this spirit passed away, which was correct, that he had committed suicide in a basement in his house, I know that this sounds extremely dubious and speculative for skeptics, and it all sounds like all they do is"fishing", but if you as a medium do blind-sittings and get across correct information like this there is validation.
"Donkeydick" & "Pickles"....
Of course there are other mediums that claim they have direct word-for-word communications also, in some cases - but I dont think they have this "clear line" all the time. I cant say I'm an expert in this field, but this is the way I heard many mediums say they get their impressions.
