Transit Tips TwistedNight38 Jan. 3, 2019 @ 2:11 AM PST: After some consideration, we're am not going to be continuing our podcast. It's simply because it's too difficult to coordinate with my co host and I'd like to focus on something elseHey there, I'm Tavi! Along with my co host, Dcmining, we talk about transit. I know it's a boring topic to some but we want to make it easy to understand so you can find better ways to ride around. Eventually, you might no longer need Google Maps or Citymapper.
