About the Guest
Dmitry Orlov is a Russian-American engineer and a writer on subjects related to “potential economic, ecological and political decline and collapse in the United States,” something he has called “permanent crisis”. Orlov believes collapse will be the result of huge military budgets, government deficits, an unresponsive political system and declining oil production.
Orlov was born in Leningrad (now Saint Petersburg) and moved to the United States at the age of 12. He has a BS in Computer Engineering and an MA in Applied Linguistics. He was an eyewitness to the collapse of the Soviet Union over several extended visits to his Russian homeland between the late 1980s and mid-1990s.
In 2005 and 2006 Orlov wrote a number of articles comparing the collapse-preparedness of the U.S. and the Soviet Union published on small Peak Oil related sites. Orlov’s article “Closing the ‘Collapse Gap’: the USSR was better prepared for collapse than the US” was very popular at EnergyBulletin.Net.
Orlov’s book Reinventing Collapse:The Soviet Example and American Prospects, published in 2008, further details his views. Discussing the book in 2009, in a piece in The New Yorker, Ben McGrath wrote that Orlov describes “superpower collapse soup” common to both the U.S. and the Soviet Union: “a severe shortfall in the production of crude oil, a worsening foreign-trade deficit, an oversized military budget, and crippling foreign debt.” Orlov told interviewer McGrath that in recent months financial professionals had begun to make up more of his audience, joining “back-to-the-land types,” “peak oilers,” and those sometimes derisively called “doomers”.
In his review of the book, commentator Thom Hartmann writes that Orlov holds that the Soviet Union hit a “soft crash” because of centralized planning in: housing, agriculture, and transportation left an infrastructure private citizens could co-opt so that no one had to pay rent or go homeless and people showed up for work, even when they were not paid. He writes that Orlov believes the U.S. will have a hard crash, more like Germany’s Weimar Republic of the 1920s.

He details the long history of leaks at biosafety labs and how Fort Detrick is about to open the biggest biodefense laboratory on the planet.

Gregory Copley: Nationalism vs Globalism & the US-China Total War
Gregory Copley discusses the "total war" between the U.S. and China and how he believes China cannot achieve its goals of strategic competition with the U.S. He believes Beijing is helping cause the economies of the West to decline where all are in a race to avoid being first to the bottom. He also discusses one of the core struggles of our time which is rural conservative nationalism versus the globalist city-state utopianism being manifested in movements such as Brexit and a brewing 2nd U.S. Civil War scenario. The 21st century will be one of declining populations and declining wealth.

Piers Robinson: Is Coronavirus the New 9/11?
Dr. Piers Robinson asks the question whether Coronavirus or COVID-19 is the New 9/11 and a deep event to be exploited by political actors in order to precipitate and manage major political, economic, and social shifts. Will the loss of liberty and basic rights continue indefinitely as governments greedily hold on to their increased powers of control over their citizenry? Will Corona be exploited in order to distract from severe economic problems whilst also enabling the pursuit of new economic strategies? He also gives an update on the OPCW leaks which revealed that the Douma chemical attacks in Syria were fabricated.

William Engdahl: The Dystopian Scenario Arising From COVID-19
Strategic risk consultant and best-selling author F. William Engdahl discusses the Coronavirus "pandemic" and how scenarios by the Rockefeller Foundation in their 2010 report and the 2019 "Event 201" Coronavirus pandemic simulation by Microsoft's Bill Gates (in conjunction with pharmaceutical companies such as Johnson & Johnson, US military, CIA, and the head of Chinese CDC) foretold in detail the events we are experiencing in real-time with the COVID-19 crisis. He explains how he never could have imagined such a dystopian geopolitical scenario in his wildest dreams. He looks at the economic collapse that is underway and where the globalists are pushing us, including a digital cashless society, and why they need to destroy the United States of America as a functioning sovereign entity.

About William Engdahl
F. William Engdahl is an award-winning geopolitical analyst, strategic risk consultant, author, professor and lecturer.
He has been researching and writing about the world political scene for more than thirty years. His various books on geopolitics—the interaction between international power politics, economics and geography—have been translated into 14 foreign languages from Chinese to French, from German to Japanese.
His most recent works trace the strategies and events that led to the rise of the US as an international superpower. He describes the emergence after 1945 of an American power as a new kind of Empire not based upon sole military occupation of land, but control of vital resources. Domination was through creation of an informal empire where control of finance, of the basic food chain, of energy—above all of oil, would be the basis for what would become the greatest concentration of power in history, an American Sole Superpower after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
Born in Minnesota, William Engdahl grew up in Texas. After earning a degree in politics from Princeton University, and graduate study in comparative economics at Stockholm University, he worked as an economist and investigative freelance journalist in New York and Europe.
He has lectured on contemporary geopolitics as Visiting Professor at Beijing University of Chemical Technology and delivers talks and private seminars around the world on different aspects of economics and politics with focus on political risk. He has given talks at the Ministry of Science and Technology Conference on Alternative Energy, Beijing; London Centre for Energy Policy Studies of Hon. Sheikh Zaki Yamani; Turkish-Eurasian Business Council of Istanbul, Global Investors' Forum (GIF) Montreaux Switzerland; Bank Negara Indonesia; the Russian Institute of Strategic Studies; the Chinese Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST), Croatian Chamber of Commerce and Economics.

We discuss the fatality ratios, the validity of the tests, and the network between the WHO, Big Pharma, and the CDC. She discusses the "McMedicine" approach of "fast-tracking" the coronavirus vaccine and the public policy discussions of making the vaccines mandatory.

Alfred de Zayas: Censorship & Sanctions in the Time of Coronavirus (COVID-19)
Former UN Special Rapporteur Alfred de Zayas discusses the global humanitarian crisis caused by the coronavirus (COVID-19). He also describes how sanctions and hybrid wars on countries such as Iran, Venezuela, and Syria constitute a grave violation of international law and human rights and should be halted in light of the health crisis. He also gives his perspective on the aftermath of the coup d'etat in Bolivia and how the OPCW has lost credibility because of the Douma scandal. He analyzes the ongoing censorship by the establishment and mainstream media, and emphasizes the important role played by alternative media.

Michael Beckley: Why America Will Remain the World’s Sole Superpower
Professor Michael Beckley discusses why he switched from being a declinist to believing that America will remain the world's superpower well into the 21st century and defy the laws of history. He explains how he measures "net power" and why China, although a formidable foe, will lag far behind the United States. Dr. Beckley examines the risk of war with China and describes his new research which looks at what happens when fast-growing great powers slow down (e.g. China).
