Summary

Tim Elliott is a senior writer at Good Weekend, the Saturday magazine for The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age, where he has won two Kennedy Awards and been nominated for a Walkley. His work has also appeared in London's The Financial Times, The Sunday Times, and The Australian. He has won multiple awards, including Best Feature at the Australian Magazine Awards and from the Australian Society of Magazine Editors. A 2014 Good Weekend story by Tim about his father’s suicide generated one of the largest reader responses in the history of The Sydney Morning Herald and led to his book, Farewell to the Father, in 2016. His first book, The Bolivian Times, is an account of six months he spent working on an English-language newspaper in South America. His latest project is a nine-part true crime podcast called Inside the Tribe, about a Christian fundamentalist sect called the Twelve Tribes. Tim shares his insights from having completed a comprehensive investigation into the worldwide Christian fundamentalist group the Twelve Tribes. He relays to Rachel the inherent dangers in this sect's patriarchal teachings toward women, their fraudulent financial practices, and their horrific neglect and abuse of young children. Before You Go: Rachel explains the long-term damage that can be caused to those raised in high-control groups that discourage development of the self or any forms of individualism.

0:00.0	Welcome to indoctrination, a weekly conversation series about protecting yourself from systems of control.
0:11.1	I'm your host, Rachel Bernstein.
0:13.7	Hi, everyone.
0:15.1	I wanted to make mention of a couple of things before I introduce the guest for today.
0:21.9	As our regular listeners might know, I'm always fascinated to see where people are listening
0:27.5	to the show throughout the world, and I'm always curious as to why certain locations seem to be
0:33.4	very invested in learning about cult dynamics and systems of control. In some cases,
0:41.1	there are obvious historical and sociological reasons why our show might be more popular in
0:46.7	certain areas. The societal ramifications of the Holocaust, for example, likely factor
0:53.2	into why we have so many listeners in Germany
0:56.0	and Israel. And the spread of Nazi occupation throughout Eastern Europe may explain our
1:03.2	popularity in places like Poland and the Czech Republic, especially Hungary, where even now fascism is once again on the rise.
1:14.6	South Africa is one of the countries in which we are listened to most, a place where, of course,
1:20.8	the extreme group think of apartheid surely plays a role in people's curiosity in learning
1:26.3	about indoctrination. And we did a few podcast
1:30.3	episodes about apartheid. We've heard from a few of our many listeners in Ireland, another
1:37.1	country where our popularity continues to rise, who eloquently explain, Heather Country is still
1:43.6	in the process of entangling the control
1:46.1	the Catholic Church has on society there. What's even more interesting, though, is when we see
1:51.7	huge spikes in listenership in smaller communities. One of these less populated places that has
1:58.2	continually charted the highest in listenership is Brainerd, Minnesota.
2:04.3	This could be related to the 2016 arrest in nearby Pine County of Victor Bernard, the leader of
