Welcome to another episode of Meet the Experts with Howie Carr.

Today's episode welcomes back renowned novelist Mike Bond to discuss his latest book, Crude, Ukraine, Oil, and Nuclear War.

Mike describes his book, The History and Research Behind It, and how closely it continues to mirror the events unfolding before our very eyes today.

Here's your host of Meet the Experts, Howie Car.

Welcome to this week's episode of Meet the Experts and I am joined by Mike Bond. He has been on the show before.

He is one of America's leading thriller novelists,

and he's got a new book out, Crude. And the Washington Times describes him as one of the 21st century's most exciting authors.

This book is about the fact that we are on the edge of World War III and before I called

Mike to do this, I was just reading the Wall Street Journal today.

U.S. shrugs this World War III approaches.

It's a column by Walter Russell Mead and he's talking about a report by the Commission

on National Defense Strategy, which is a think tank type of group,

and they're talking about the bipartisan report details a devastating picture of political failure,

strategic inadequacy, and growing American weakness in a time of rapidly increasing danger.

As you know, the situation between Iran and their proxies attacking Israel striking back.

Then there's the Ukraine-Russian war.

China is very active in the Pacific.

They're flexing their muscles.

It's just a big mess. That's what crude is all about.
