Abby then talks to Jacob Remes, Public Affairs and History Professor at SUNY Empire State College, about the recent explosion at the West Fertilizer Company in West, Texas, and the effects of disregarding workplace safety standards. BTS wraps up the show with an update on the Boston Bombings, and a look at some of the most recent tragedies in Iraq and Yemen that have received virtually zero media attention.
