Dr. Michael Wysession is a professor of Geophysics, Earth and Planetary Sciences, and he joined The Show to lay out some of the earthquake history in the Turkey-Syrian region.

Dr. Wysession gave us an idea of just how powerful and impactful this quake was as it hit early in the morning on Monday. We also get insight on if the St. Louis and Southeast Missouri area is due for a large earthquake.
