Hello hello darlings!

In this episode, Erica Star and Justin Santos teach you about NYC transit. Long story short, there's so much more bad than good but as New Yorkers, they've got a love/hate relationship with the hunk of metal and sketchy tunnels. If you've never been to New York, they give you a pretty decent feel for what to expect.
