I've been talking about the coming El Niño for weeks while the corporate media looked the other way — and then the AP runs the story the same morning I'm finally doing a show on it. Of course! On today's show, I bring in two essential guests: Kurt Cobb, energy writer and author of the peak oil novel Prelude, breaks down just how precarious the global oil situation is — with the Iran war disrupting supply, strategic reserves draining fast, and futures prices that may spike to $150–$200 a barrel by fall. And Tom DiLiberto, former NOAA El Niño forecaster and now media director at Climate Central, confirms what I've been dreading: El Niño is officially here, it could be the strongest in recorded history, and with climate change amplifying everything, we're in for a rough ride through 2027.
