Tune in here to this Friday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! 



Brett kicks off the program with The Hangover with Pete Kaliner as they discuss global oil markets and escalating geopolitical unrest. The conversation opens with a sharp critique of Rep. Jimmy Panetta’s comments on Venezuelan oil, using it as a springboard to explain how oil futures, production levels, and pricing actually work—and why claims about “market saturation” miss the mark. Brett and Pete argue that U.S. action in Venezuela weakens adversaries like China and Russia, who have relied on the region for oil and strategic positioning.



We’re joined by Gordon G. Chang, foreign policy analyst and China expert, to talk about the unraveling of authoritarian regimes and China’s increasingly precarious position on the world stage. Gordon breaks down how events in Venezuela and Iran are interconnected with Beijing’s strategic losses, particularly the collapse of key proxy relationships and access to cheap oil. The discussion explores how the retreat of the so-called “red-green alliance” is creating internal pressure for Xi Jinping, raising fears of unrest inside China itself. Gordon explains why this instability could drive more aggressive Chinese behavior in East Asia, including heightened provocations toward Taiwan, Japan, and the Philippines.
