The Netflix docuseries Trust Me: The False Prophet introduced the world to Christine Marie — the cult psychologist and survivor who walked into Samuel Bateman's FLDS inner circle, gathered the evidence the FBI used to put him in federal prison for fifty years, and is still living in Short Creek today. The documentary couldn't tell you everything. This conversation can.This is the complete extended interview — all three parts in one continuous sit-down. Christine takes Tony through how she got inside. She and her husband Tolga moved to Short Creek in 2016 to film a different project entirely, and then Bateman emerged from the post-Warren Jeffs FLDS community and declared himself the next prophet. He let them in because he thought their cameras would make him famous. He had no idea Christine had once fallen for a false prophet herself, years before, and could read every move he was making.She walks Tony through the years of getting local police to do nothing despite watching her footage. The late-2021 recording — Bateman describing "the Atonement," three of his wives, one a minor, handed to three of his men — that finally moved the FBI. Julia Johnson, the mother she flipped, whose four daughters had been given to Bateman. The morning of the raid, and how the girls were pulled away from him before agents moved. And the part the documentary can't end on — that fifty years in federal prison hasn't broken his hold, and a number of the women Christine risked her life to save have walked right back to him by choice.It's the deepest dive into this case anyone's published. The full story, from the only person who lived it all.LINKS BLOCKJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

All three parts of our interview with Christine Marie, woven together into one extended conversation — the cult psychologist and survivor who walked into Samuel Bateman's FLDS inner circle, fed the FBI the evidence that ended his freedom for fifty years, and is still living in Short Creek today doing the work nobody else will.She wasn't even supposed to be there for him. She and her husband Tolga came to that stretch of the Utah-Arizona border in 2016 to film a different story entirely. Then Bateman stepped out of the post-Warren Jeffs wreckage, declared himself the new prophet, and started taking "spiritual wives," some of them girls. He let Christine in. He thought she was going to make him famous. He didn't know she'd already lived through coercive control herself, years before, with a different false prophet — and that everything he was doing, she'd seen done before.In this extended interview, she takes us through it all. How she pulled off the cover. What it cost to live that double life. The wait — years of local police who believed her tapes and refused to act. The recording she captured in late 2021 that finally moved the FBI. Julia Johnson, the mother she flipped. The morning of the raid. And then the part of the story that doesn't fit on a documentary's ending card — that fifty years in federal prison didn't end Bateman's hold on those women, and a number of the ones Christine risked her life to free are calling him their prophet still.It's the longest, most honest version of the entire arc — getting in, taking him down, and the unfinished fight afterward.LINKS BLOCKJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The complete three-part conversation, all in one extended sit-down. Christine Marie — the cult psychologist who walked into Samuel Bateman's FLDS world with a camera and a hidden agenda — sits down with me to tell the whole story from start to finish.Christine and her husband Tolga moved to Short Creek in 2016 with a completely different project in mind. Then Samuel Bateman rose out of the post-Warren Jeffs FLDS community, declared himself the new prophet, took "spiritual wives" — some of them girls as young as nine — and made the decision that would cost him fifty years in federal prison: he let two outsiders with cameras into his house. He thought they were going to make him famous. He didn't know Christine had been under a false prophet's spell herself, years before, and could read every move he was making the second he made it.In this extended interview, she walks me through the entire arc. The cover story. The mole identity. The years of going to local police who believed her tapes and refused to move. The Atonement recording she captured in late 2021 that finally turned the case federal. Julia Johnson, the mother she flipped, whose four daughters had been given to Bateman. The morning of the raid. And the hardest truth of the whole story — that fifty years in federal prison didn't break Bateman's grip on the people who believe in him, and a meaningful number of the women Christine risked her life to save are calling him their prophet still.If you've only seen the Netflix documentary, you've only seen the surface.

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Samuel Bateman wasn't hiding. He was operating in the open, on a street where the local police knew his name, in a town where the sheriff drove past his house every day. The most disturbing question about his case isn't how he got away with it. It's why everyone around him let him.In this second part of a three-part conversation with Christine Marie, we get into the wall that almost saved him. Short Creek, the FLDS community where Bateman built his sect, had spent decades teaching itself to look the other way. Polygamy was "how things are out there." Child marriages were "their lifestyle." By the time Christine and her husband Tolga arrived with cameras, the local authorities had stopped seeing what was happening in plain sight long before. The sergeant in the Netflix documentary all but says it himself — he believed her tapes, but moving on what they showed meant going to war with the way the town had always done things.Christine takes me through what that wait did to her. The moment she stopped trying to convince local cops and reached for the FBI. The recording she captured in late 2021, where Bateman described "the Atonement" — handing three of his wives, one a minor, to three of his men — that finally broke through. The mother she sat with and helped flip, Julia Johnson, whose four daughters had been given to Bateman. The morning of the raid, and how she pulled the girls away from him before federal agents moved. And the regret she lives with — what she'd have done differently to make it move faster.LINKS BLOCKJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Netflix docuseries Trust Me: The False Prophet introduced the world to the woman who took Samuel Bateman down from the inside. But the documentary couldn't tell the whole story. There's a conversation behind that footage — about what it actually took to walk into a self-proclaimed prophet's house every day, lie about why you were there, and quietly build a case that would put him in federal prison for fifty years.In this first part of a three-part interview, Christine Marie sits down with Tony to tell that story.Christine and her husband Tolga moved to Short Creek on the Utah-Arizona border in 2016, planning a project that had nothing to do with Samuel Bateman. Then Bateman rose out of the post-Warren Jeffs FLDS community, declaring himself the new prophet, taking "spiritual wives," some of them girls as young as nine. He sized up the two outsiders with cameras and made a decision that would end his freedom — he let them in. He thought they were going to make a film that would carry him to the world. He didn't know Christine had once been under another false prophet's spell years earlier. He didn't know she could read him on sight.She tells Tony what it took to keep his trust. The double life she lived for years inside that community. The performance she had to put on for his wives. The moment "documentary" became "evidence-gathering" in her own head. And the strange truth she still wrestles with — whether Bateman knew, somewhere underneath all of it, that he wasn't really a prophet at all.LINKS BLOCKJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
A man who trusted almost no outsiders sat down across from Christine Marie and handed her the access that would eventually put him in federal prison for fifty years. He didn't know what she was. He didn't know her history. He didn't know what she could see.When Christine and her husband Tolga first moved to Short Creek — that quiet stretch of FLDS country along the Utah-Arizona border — they came for a completely different reason than the world now associates with their names. They had a different project, a gentler one, meant to humanize a community most outsiders had condemned. Samuel Bateman wasn't anywhere on their radar. Then, slowly, he became the entire story.He cast himself as the new prophet. He took "spiritual wives," some of them girls. He looked at these two outsiders with cameras and made a calculation: they could be useful. He let them film him. He let them sit with his women. He sat for the camera and preached, certain his words were about to be carried to the world.Christine carried them to the FBI instead.In this first part of a three-part conversation, she tells me how she pulled it off. What she pretended to believe. How she got him to keep handing her access. The moment she stopped thinking of herself as a documentary maker and admitted, even to herself, that she was a mole. Whether the women around Bateman were really performing or really believed. And the most uncomfortable question of all — did Bateman ever quietly know he wasn't who he said he was?LINKS BLOCKJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Christine Marie watched Samuel Bateman every single day for years. She sat at his table. She filmed his sermons. She listened to his wives recite their devotion to him. And she has an answer to the question true crime listeners keep asking about him — was he a true believer, or did he know, deep down, that he was a fraud?She's the one outsider who got close enough to actually know.Christine and her husband Tolga moved to Short Creek with a completely different project in mind, planning to film something else entirely in the FLDS community along the Utah-Arizona border. Then Samuel Bateman walked into their lives — a self-proclaimed prophet rising out of the wreckage of Warren Jeffs' imprisonment, taking "spiritual wives," some of them children, claiming Jeffs spoke through him. He thought Christine and Tolga were going to make him famous. He gave them access nobody else got. And the entire time, she was watching him with the eyes of a woman who'd once fallen for a false prophet herself, years earlier — a woman who knew every move he was making because she'd had them made on her.In this opening conversation of our three-part interview, Christine takes us inside Bateman's world. Why he trusted her. What it cost to maintain that lie every day. The performance the women around him put on — and the real belief underneath it. The moment she admitted, even to herself, that "filmmaker" had become "mole." And what she saw in Bateman that made her wonder whether even he knew the whole thing was a con.LINKS BLOCKJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Keer op keer trok de familie van de psychotische Tolga aan de bel, maar met hun zorgen gebeurde niks. Tot de dag dat Tolga zijn onderbuurman Rens doodstak. Zo'n moord gebeurt vaker, en geregeld is het verhaal in grote lijnen hetzelfde: iemand met ernstige psychiatrische problemen valt zijn familie, buurman, of een willekeurige voorbijganger aan. Geregeld is de dader al bekend bij justitie of zorginstanties, en hebben familie of buren aan de bel getrokken. Meestal zijn de daders mensen met complexe, ernstige psychiatrische problemen, van wie we vaak al weten dat ze mogelijk agressief kunnen worden. Het gaat dus om misdrijven, gepleegd door mensen die vóór die fatale dag patiënten waren, of hadden moeten zijn. In Niemandsland onderzoeken Elsbeth Stoker en Dija Kabba hoe het kan dat juist deze groep nog te vaak niet de juiste zorg krijgt.In Parel hoor je de eerste aflevering van deze 6-delige serie, en een interview met de makers (vanaf 30 minuten).

When Warren Jeffs, the “prophet” of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (FLDS), a Mormon fundamentalist group whose members practice polygamy, stopped communicating regularly from prison where he is serving a life sentence for child sexual assault, his followers were at a loss. But, as Rachel Dretzin depicts in her powerful, eye-opening four-part Netflix series “Trust Me: The False Prophet,” Jeffs' silence created the opportunity for a new leader to fill the void. Enter Samuel Bateman, a seemingly unremarkable guy, who claimed that he was the new prophet. Rachel joins Ken on the podcast to talk about the consequences of Bateman's rise within the FLDS, his influence over a handful of adults and girls in the community, and the tragic consequences of his actions. The centerpiece of “Trust Me” and the key to Bateman's undoing is Dr. Christine Marie, a former Mormon who, along with her husband, the videographer Tolga Katas, grew close to the group with the intent of exposing Bateman's crimes. Relying heavily on Tolga's insider footage, as well as key interviews with women who eventually turned against Bateman, the series shows how far trust can take some people and a measure of justice that can occur when that trust is finally broken. “Trust Me: The False Prophet” is streaming on Netflix.

Dr. Christine Marie, who along with her husband Tolga helped expose a man named, Samuel Bateman, who claimed to be the self-proclaimed prophet of a religious polygamous sect, known as the FLDS. Samuel Bateman claimed the group's leader, Warren Jeffs, had died while in prison, and he was the now the prophet. It is reported that Bateman formed his own group within the FLDS, where his male followers not only gave their adult wives to the him, but also their underage daughters, as young as 9 years old, to become Bateman's “wives,” and who he would sexually abuse. Dr.Phil will speak with Dr. Christine, who along with her husband Tolga, would earn the trust of Samuel Bateman and his followers, and be invited to spend one and a half years filming hundreds of hours of footage with them. Dr. Christine and Tolga would eventually begin secretly working with the FBI, while continuing to be embedded within the sect. Samuel Bateman would eventually be arrested and sentenced to 50 years in prison for the crimes he committed against his underage wives. Many of his adult male and female followers were also held to justice. Christine, Tolga, and their footage are featured in the Netflix 4 part documentary series, “Trust Me: The False Prophet,” which chronicles the rise and fall of Samuel Bateman, and is streaming now on Netflix.This episode is brought to you by:Don't wait!

Christine Marie, cult psychology expert, joins me to discuss Netflix's Trust Me: The False Prophet. This four-part docuseries follows Christine and her husband, videographer Tolga Katas, as they embed themselves in the FLDS community in Short Creek, a town straddling the Utah-Arizona border long associated with fundamentalist Mormonism. What begins as an effort to support a fractured community in the wake of leader Warren Jeffs' imprisonment turns into something far more dangerous. As they gain the trust of Samuel Bateman, a self-proclaimed prophet who rises to power after Jeffs, Christine and Tolga begin documenting his inner circle. Bateman, believing he is being filmed for a project that will amplify his message, allows unprecedented access. But behind the scenes, Christine and Tolga are gathering evidence of coercion, control, and the sexual abuse of women and underage girls. The series captures, in real time, the unraveling of Bateman's authority. A 2022 traffic stop leads to his arrest, followed by a federal investigation and raid that exposes the full scope of his crimes. He was later sentenced to 50 years in prison.

Why is it so hard to stop abuse in these communities… even when people know it's happening?In Episode 2 of Trust Me: A False Prophet, we dive deeper into the case of Samuel Bateman and the devastating reality victims face when law enforcement can't act without testimony.We talk about how young girls were groomed from birth to obey priesthood leaders and “the prophet,” and how they were taught to share “spiritual testimonies” that led them into these marriages. From the outside, it can be confusing—but from the inside, this level of control is all they've ever known.We also break down one of the most frustrating parts of this story:Even when authorities are aware of what's happening, their hands are often tied unless victims are willing—and able—to speak out.And in the middle of all of this, we highlight the incredible courage of Christine and Tolga, who spent months fighting to help these girls, even when the system wasn't working in their favor.This episode isn't just about what happened… it's about why it keeps happening.
The FBI couldn't get inside. Police had questioned Bateman twice and left empty-handed. The FLDS community was built over a century to resist outside scrutiny, and it was working. The formal institutions designed to protect children had failed to penetrate the wall. So two people who weren't part of any institution did it instead.Christine Marie is a cult researcher who moved to Short Creek with her filmmaker husband Tolga Katas in 2016. They came to help — Christine started a nonprofit supporting people leaving the FLDS. When Bateman declared himself a prophet and the abuse began, they shifted from humanitarian work to covert intelligence gathering. Tolga filmed hundreds of hours inside Bateman's operation. Christine built trust within his circle and recorded a critical conversation where Bateman described orchestrating sexual acts with minors. She delivered that recording to law enforcement. The FBI investigation that followed led to Bateman's arrest and a fifty-year sentence.Their footage became the basis for Netflix's Trust Me: The False Prophet, directed by Rachel Dretzin of Keep Sweet: Pray and Obey. Dretzin has called what Christine and Tolga captured "a blueprint for how to dismantle even the most entrenched systems of abuse."But the personal cost was steep. Christine had children of her own in the community. Bateman's followers had already shown they would kidnap children and flee across state lines. If her role was discovered, the danger was not hypothetical. She reflected: "I was so trusted. I wanted to help them before they found out I was a mole. I'm not betraying them — I'm helping them, right?" The girls now living free probably have an answer to that question. Whether it's the only answer is what makes this episode worth hearing.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Every cult case reaches a point where the same question surfaces: when parents won't protect their children, when police ask questions and accept lies, when a community closes ranks around a predator — who steps in? In the Bateman case, the answer is two civilians who had no obligation to act and every reason not to.Christine Marie and Tolga Katas moved to Short Creek to help a broken community. They ended up inside the inner circle of the man breaking it further. Christine ran a nonprofit called Voices for Dignity. Tolga was filming a documentary. When Bateman rose and started collecting wives — including children — they pivoted from community support to covert documentation. They captured conversations, recorded daily life inside his compound, and gathered testimony from women who were beginning to speak about what was happening behind closed doors.The pivotal moment came when Bateman sat Christine in his Bentley and described the "Atonement" — the sexual acts he was orchestrating with adults and children — as if it were church business. She called her law enforcement contact and said: "I got the bombshell you've been waiting for." That recording, and the hundreds of hours of footage Tolga forwarded to the FBI, became foundational evidence in the federal case.This is the episode that connects directly to the Netflix docuseries Trust Me: The False Prophet, built from Christine and Tolga's footage. But we go beyond the documentary into the ethical complexity of what they did — the relationships they built under false pretenses, the women who trusted them and are now in prison, and the daily calculation Christine made between the evidence she was gathering and the safety of her own children living in the same community.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In dieser Episode diskutieren Nico und Tolga schonungslos ehrlich über das Trendthema digitale Souveränität. Zwischen Buzzword-Bingo, realen Sicherheitsherausforderungen und der Frage, ob Europa sich nicht längst in die nächste Abhängigkeit manövriert, geht es um klare Fakten und praxisnahe Einschätzungen aus über 20 Jahren IT-Erfahrung.Tolga teilt seine Perspektive aus der Security-Praxis: Warum es keine hundertprozentige Ausfallsicherheit gibt, weshalb Cloud-Ausfälle wie bei AWS unvermeidlich sind und wieso Business-Continuity-Pläne in KMUs oft nicht existieren, obwohl genau dort der größte Handlungsbedarf besteht.Die beiden sprechen außerdem über:Warum der Begriff digitale Souveränität häufig missverstanden wirdWie viel Kontrolle wir in Cloud-Umgebungen tatsächlich habenWelche Alternativen zu US-Hyperscalern es realistisch gibtWarum Open Source wichtig, aber kein Allheilmittel istWie KI, Chips und Cloud die neuen Machtzentren der digitalen Welt prägenUnd wieso Vertrauen in Europa nicht automatisch Unabhängigkeit bedeutetEin ehrliches Gespräch über Verantwortung, fehlendes Risikokapital, Bürokratie im KI-Bereich und die bittere Wahrheit: Souveränität beginnt im eigenen Unternehmen mit Know-how, Notfallplänen und echter Bereitschaft, zu investieren.

The Olson Family Farm was recognized as a Century Farm in 1985 after 110 years of continuous family ownership. Ole Herdal Olson (born October 1807) and Dorthea Jensdatter Stennan Riise (born October 1809) were united in marriage in May 1838 in Tolga, Hedemark, Norway. To this union there were six children: Ole Iver born in 1838; Marit born in 1841; Carrie born in 1843; Johanne born in 1846; Anna born in 1849; and Jens born on October 26, 1853. They emigrated from Norway to America and were among the early settlers in the Township of Leon. Ole and Dorthea purchased the present farm in 1875 from John Cannon. Mr. Cannon was a lumberman from the state of New York that came to Wisconsin around 1842 and settled on about 600 acres in the Township of Leon in what is now known as Cannon Valley. Halver and Rebecca Bergerson came to America with their six children including daughter Caroline Bergerson Brangrud who was born in Holand, Norway on born December 7, 1860. They came to America in 1872 when she was 11 ½ years old. Halver was a successful farmer and stock raiser, keeping his farm well stocked with a good grade of horses, cattle and hogs. He was a man of noble Christian character, and he and his wife were honored members of the Lutheran church and had great influence in the community. Jens Olson and Caroline Bergerson were united in marriage in the Township of Leon on March 12, 1878. Jens assumed the role as main farmer of the small dairy operation after the passing of his father Ole in April 1879. Jens was successful in his operations as a farmer, and his farm was highly improved by cultivation and buildings, and the modern residence erected in 1904, with the commodious outbuildings, make theirs one of the up-to-date country homes of the valley. He was kind-hearted and generous and a devoted member of the Lutheran church, having the confidence and esteem of all who knew him. To the marriage of Jens and Caroline there were twelve children: Johanna born 1878 (never married); Dora born 1880 (married Hans Hoitomt); Oscar born 1882 (never married); Harold born 1884 (never married); Ida born 1887 (married Joseph Anderson); Augusta born 1889 (married Angus Morrison); Nora born 1892 (married Earl Anderson); Olga born 1894 (married Irving Thomesen); Josef born 1896 (married Elizabeth Betty); Leonard born 1898 (married Selma Kolbo); and the twins William (married Sarah Kolbo) and Walter (married Alice Erickson) born 1902. Jens passed away in May 1904, leaving Caroline to farm over 250 acres of land and maintain the dairy herd. Her children Johanna, Oscar and Harold lived close by and assisted with raising their brothers and sisters as well as the farming chores. Caroline very ably brought up her family, continuing in the teaching of the Lutheran Church. The youngest son, Walter, married Alice (Breitenfield-Erickson) on October 24, 1932, in Galena, Illinois. To this union there were three children: Jane born April 1933 (married Lavern Chapiewsky); James A. born August 1934 (married Joan Melloh) and Joyce born April 1937 (married Forrest Johnson). Caroline passed away on July 14, 1934, and the farm was left in the hands of her six sons. Johanna, Oscar, and Harold lived on a 100-acre parcel and farmed another 100-acre parcel. Walter and Alice were able to purchase the remaining 154 acres from his brothers on April 21, 1947. Walter passed away July 29, 1968, seventeen years to the day after his twin brother William passed away (in 1951). James A. married Joan Melloh on October 10, 1964. To this union there were two children: James J. born in September 1966 (married Julie Benedict), and Lori A., born in July 1971 (married Marcus Volden). Alice sold the farm of 154 acres to James and Joan on May 15, 1978, and she moved to Sparta. James A. changed the farm operation from dairy to beef cows and honorably served in the Army National Guard, Army reserves, and on active duty. On December 7, 1998, James A. passed half the farm to his son James J. Both children honorably served in the military; James J. enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1984 and retired as a Major in 2007, and Lori enlisted in the Army in 1989 and retired as a Lieutenant Colonel in 2025. James J. then married Julie Benedict on October 27, 2001, and to this marriage there were two children: Caroline (named after her Great-Grandmother), born in April 200,3 and James-Dean (named after both of his Grandfathers), born in February 2006. On July 24, 2006, James A. passed his half of the farm to James-Dean. He worked as a mechanic for the Monroe County Highway Department and farmed the family farm. Even though he had Allis-Chalmers tractors, he enjoyed doing his farm work with his Percheron horses. He was a fixture at many local parades, fairs, and plowing contests. He was invited on numerous occasions to pull the caged lion at the Great Circus Parade in Milwaukee. He was a mainstay at the World Percheron Congress, culminating with him being crowned the World Champion Farm Team in 2006 in Lexington, Virginia. On July 7, 2008, James J. and James-Dean purchased an additional 27.9 acres from a neighbor, bringing the total number of acres to 181. James A. passed away on February 19, 2011; Lori received the horses and associated equipment while James J. and James-Dean slowly transitioned the farm from horse-drawn equipment to more modern mechanical ag equipment. James-Dean loved the outdoors, especially hunting and driving all the equipment. Sadly, he was killed in an automobile accident on the day before the start of his junior year of high school in August 2022. James J., Julie, and Caroline established a Foundation to carry on his legacy and as well as farming grain crops (corn, soybeans, and hay).

This mix is a recording from the set I played for Night Safari on March 22nd at Carousel in Sydney.Carousel is a relatively new club that recently got voted one of the top clubs in the world!! It's somewhere I go regularly, the sound system alone cost $600k AUD! Funktion one throughout, even in the bathroom they have a small Funktion One!It's been a dream of mine to play there ever since it opened. The DJ Booth is so cool, elevated above the dancefloor, but surrounded by VIP. The decks sit on a suspended table to reduce noise to the turntables.I was on warm up duty and so kicked things off to an empty club.I will come clean, some of the transitions in this mix make me wince. I was aware of a couple I had to wrestle on the night, but the recording highlights a few more. It's a shame because the tunes are superb. But hey, shows that this cat does NOT use the Sync button. I don't get to play this kind of music in Sydney very often unfortunately.As always these days I took the liberty of dropping my last two tracks towards the end of the mix.I'm looking forward to the next Night Safari, being able to play unrestricted. The crowd are great too, there was such cool energy in the room all night.With the exception of the dodgy mixing in places I'm really proud of this set. It was done on the fly and I love the warehouse sounding early tunes. It reminds me of the good old days in the early 90s, getting into the club early. Empty dancefloor, minimal NY style house beats.Thanks again Tolga for inviting me to play, can't wait to do it all over again.Tracklisting:1: Ralph Session - A Nod To MAW (GarcyNoise Remix)2: Detroit Swindle - Woman3: Cinthie - Maleficent4: Audio City Soul - Au Shonk5: Frits Wentink - About You6: Shur-I-Kan - The Fly7: Blazers - A Sidelong Glance8: Sonarpilot - Open House (Danny J Lewis Mix)9: Dub Striker - Falling Leaves (Murvin Sound Mix)10: Kyodai - Sex Affair (Main)11: Milton Jackson - 640012: Klaus Veen - Poison13: One & Done - Chum 14: Vincenzo Gerri - All I Need15: George Smeddles - Festival Track17: c2eMusic - London Knights (Orig Mix)18: Walter G - Omakla19: c2eMusic - Beautiful Persons20: Joeski, Hector Lavoe - Dia De Ayer (Extended) 21: Kerri Chandler - Bar A ThymEnjoy!
Have you ever wondered why the wait times in emergency rooms are so long? Or what dictates the cost of healthcare and it seems so high? Professor Tolga Tezcan has studied healthcare systems around the globe, collaborating with hospitals and researching questions involving access and business operations. He has continued that work at Rice University and teaches courses on operations management, business analytics, and data mining.Owl Have You Know host Maya Pomroy '22 sits down with Tolga to chat about his course on operations management, the inefficiencies and bottlenecks healthcare systems face, and his research on innovations in healthcare delivery. Episode Guide:00:22 Meet Professor Tolga Tezcan01:36 Understanding Operations Management05:00 Journey into Healthcare Operations08:13 Challenges in Healthcare Systems11:43 Innovative Research and Solutions21:28 Future of Healthcare and AI34:24 Teaching and Student Engagement35:46 Life at Rice University38:03 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsOwl Have You Know is a production of Rice Business and is produced by University FM.Episode Quotes:How Professor Tolga's research is using financial incentives to improve healthcare11:44 [Maya Pomroy]: So tell me about your research. What were the bigger questions? This is exciting because I want to know how it's all going to be fixed and magnificent and, you know, like, this is really—no, I mean, it's because healthcare is just crucial, and it's really integral for all parts of our society—not only the economy but for a healthy society and for everything else.And in order to be the leader of the free world, you need a healthy society. So yes, I'm very excited to hear about your research.15:46 [Professor Tolga Tezcan]: So, my research in general—what I try to answer is, okay, we have this best system. How do we coordinate it better? How do we make sure they're connected better? And usually, you do that, at least—I mean, from a business point of view, looking at it as a business—it's with financial incentives. So I try to figure out the best incentives to give so that everybody acts like they're doing the best for the patient.What are the biggest opportunities for AI in healthcare innovation?22:12: When you talk about healthcare, there are many different aspects to discuss. And when I talk about AI, it's not the business side that's going to change first; it's going to change the medical delivery side of it, just like any other business. And for us, for example, it makes a lot of things a lot easier to do: writing an email, sometimes checking or editing a document, and so on and so forth. And just like that, I think the first step would be when you're making medical decisions; it will increase the—I shouldn't say accuracy—but it will increase at least the efficiency of doctors making that decision because now you have a second opinion right there at your fingertips. I think that's what's going to change first.What Professor Tolga Enjoys most about teaching in the Rice community34:45: I want to believe that my course is an eye-opening experience for everybody, seeing the strategic role operations play. And I love the conversations I have. I mean, multiple times I have conversations with people who come from operations and tell me, "Oh, I've never thought about these issues this way," or people come in with no background and say, "Oh, you know, I've never thought this was something that plays such an important role." It's a challenge because a lot of things in operations change, just like anything else.Show Links: TranscriptGuest Profiles:Tolga Tezcan | Rice Business

Tolga stumbled upon a problem in the security monitoring space. Motion cameras generated way too many false alerts. So he decided to solve it using AI. He raised over a million dollars and got several customers.But he always felt he was pushing a boulder up a hill. At one point, one of his large customers churned and went with a competitor. Tolga pivoted, but it was too late. Now, thinking back, he realizes that one of the main issues is he may never have been solving an important-enough problem. And in my experience that's the reason that 95%+ of startups fail.You learn a lot from the massive successes— but you can only really know what drives success if you pay attention to the failures as well. So here it is, back by popular demand.Why you should listen:Why learning from failures is as important as celebrating successes.Why you need to deeply validate the problem with customers before building. How to tell if your product isn't a top priority based on sales cycles.Why you probably need to pivot sooner than you think.Keywordsstartup failure, founder stories, learning from mistakes, customer validation, market dynamics, business pivot, entrepreneurship, PromiseQ, AI technology, security solutionsTimestamps:(00:00:00) Intro(00:02:50) What is PromiseQ(00:11:06) Working on a Non-Priority Pain Point(00:16:10) Realizing the Different Costumer Profiles too Late(00:18:23) The Business Model(00:20:52) Why you need to pivot fast(00:28:32) If Things Went DifferentlySend me a message to let me know what you think!
