2023-02-19 EXPERT INTERVIEW – DR. CHRIS MARTENSON

“The next few years is when people wake up to the idea that oil is actually structurally in very short supply. And because of that, I think we’re going to have to get ready for 100, 200, $300 a barrel oil.” Our guest this week on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio is Dr. Chris Martenson. He talks with your host, Dennis Tubbergen, about the three E’s; Economy, Energy, and Environment, and his forecast for the future in these key areas. The whole system needs to continue as it has for the last 40-50 years, but that’s just not possible… What comes next?

Dr. Chris Martenson is the author of the book The Crash Course, which, while written quite a few years ago, prophesized what’s playing out today.  More recently, he co-authored the book “Prosper” with Adam Taggart, with whom he also publishes the website PeakProsperity.com.
