'The Thomas John Experience': Release date, plot, cast and all you need to know about the CBS All Access show
Psychics encompass people who use extra-sensory perception to obtain information that is hidden from otherwise normal senses. Psychic mediums particularly use telepathy or clairvoyance as a means of communicating with otherworldly beings ie, mediumship between the spirits of the dead and living human beings. They are familiar to us as part of extensive paranormal investigations when investigators tend to bring in a medium to carry out a psychic sweep around the location that is believed to be haunted. But what if you could speak to a deceased loved one? What would you say to them?

Thomas John, a world-renowned psychic medium travels across America, using his ability to get strangers in touch with those on the other side, mostly their deceased loved ones.

Of course, he encounters his fair share of skeptics among a throng of believers, but when he ambushed them with the names or descriptions of people coming to him, they are left gobsmacked. John visits LA, New Orleans, Chicago, and Boston in 'The Thomas John Experience', where he meets people from all walks of life, including drag queens and people pf much older demographics with whom he discusses the afterlife.
