About this listen

A shocking investigation revealing why greedy oil companies are lying to the American people.

At the end of World War II, U.S. intelligence agents confiscated thousands of Nazi documents on what was known as the “Fischer-Tropsch Process” - a series of equations developed by German chemists unlocking the secrets of how oil is formed. When the Nazis took power, Germany had resolved to develop enough synthetic oil to wage war successfully, even without abundant national oil reserves.

For decades, these confiscated German documents remained largely ignored in a United States where petro-geologists and petro-chemists were convinced that oil was a “fossil fuel” created by ancient decaying biological debris. Clearly, big U.S. oil companies had no financial interest in explaining to the American people that oil was a natural product made on a continual basis deep within the earth. If there were only so many fossils in geological time, there could only be so much oil. Big oil could then charge more for a finite, rapidly disappearing resource than for a natural, renewable, and probably inexhaustible one.

The Great Oil Conspiracy explains how Stalin, at the end of World War II, demanded his petro-geologists “dig deeper” when petro-scientists in the United States had determined that the Soviet Union, like Germany, lacked national oil reserves. Russia today has challenged Saudi Arabia for the lead in oil production and exportation. Once oil is understood as an abundantly available resource, there is no reason hydro-carbon fuels cannot indefinitely propel the development and production of cheap energy reserves the United States needs to maintain its dominant position in the emerging global economy.

very politically fueled

good read, interesting information I don't know if I agree with everything that they're saying but it does give a bit of controversy to everything that's going on in the world and what might be lurking behind the shadows

Not sure how true it is, but it's quite a story

Over all this is not a bad read, but how true??? I'm not sure. I know that parts of this story are true. I know that operation paper clip is true. But the question of whether fossil fuels are really fossil fuels? I suppose anything is possible. Story is not bad, narration is not bad. Overall, not bad.

Fun book but...

The book is loaded with great facts and interesting history, but as far as a conspiracy to hide the abiotic nature of oil, the case made was a bit disjointed, instead the book read like a three part series. Part one, conspiracy and the case for abiotic oil. Part two, alternative energy boondoggles. Part three, we’ve got tons of oil and gas all over the place.

If there is a conspiracy, what is it? Hiding abiotic oil to prop up oil prices or to promote an alternative energy industry? The two don’t actually go hand in hand. High oil prices do make alternative energy possible but a thriving alternative energy market will depress oil prices.

Which is it?

Years later, and all the predictions were true.

Years later and all the predictions were true. America was energy independent under Trump, but former vice president Biden cut off our ability to be so. We keep finding oil and all the peek oil people always end up being wrong. A bit too technical in areas, but bottom line remains true and the case for earth creating oil is very compelling and evidence points to this.

Worst part of the audio book is the reader. His sarcastic nagging eye rolling tone was annoying. Ok, so maybe the reader didn't agree, but it didn't have to come out in your reading.

Extremely Biased

Jerome Corsi brings up some interesting hypothesis regarding abiotic oil production. Referencing that methane has been found on Saturn's moon of Titan. But separate of that you can hear the rant against the oil producers seeming to abuse the so called sacristy of the fossil fuels, and bemoan subsidies to alternative fuels, while neglecting the subsidies given to oil companies. Many of the complaints against wind for example are esthetic, and not capacity or ability. In fact ability is unfortunately determined by the natural cycle of the day and batteries of some type might help in this regard. He further neglects that consuming anything reduces it. The earth will eventually run out, he is just saying it isn't from fossils, but from naturally occurring carbon and hydrogen in the earth that the earth itself catalyzes into fossil fuels. You want to believe that there is more to this, but it seems it is the rant of someone who stumbled upon an alternative to what is going on and says that proves everything else wrong. Also the author only states that global warming isn't going on or the reason isn't due to burning of fossil fuels, but stops after the statement. Where the data shows a correlation b/w carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere and average global temperature. If you can get this free listen but I'm sure you will hear the bias / rant.
