This week on Auto Asphyxiation, Kimberly and Lark dive headfirst into the tangled web of transit politics, equity, and the myths of suburbia. In a state dubbed the most urban in the U.S.—yes, New Jersey—what does “suburban” even mean? Buckle up as they unpack:

🔹 SEPTA’s controversial service cuts: Who bears the brunt when public transit shrinks?
🔹 NJ’s Light Rail possibilities: Dreamy expansion or another half-baked Band-Aid?
🔹 Infrastructure’s hidden agenda: Is it built for people—or profit?
🔹 Suburban identity in an urban state: Why New Jersey’s sprawl defies easy labels.

This isn’t just a chat about trains and asphalt. It’s a fight for who gets to move, who gets left behind, and why the systems we take for granted aren’t neutral.
