It's not that he talks to god, but that he is the closest to god than any other human and has the highest authority in matters of faith, biblical interpretation, etc.
Jesus is the only path to heaven, though there maybe some loopholes involving purgatory and what have you. It's not very clear and RC's will usually just believe whatever the hell they want to believe.
Jesus died for your sins, so everyone get on board, cuz we're going to heaven baby! (maybe some purgatory, again, not very clear)
