In this episode, Bob continues our coverage of San Antonio’s crowded mayoral race with Councilwoman Dr. Adriana Rocha Garcia of District 4.

A professor of marketing at Our Lady of the Lake University and former president of the San Antonio Housing Trust, Rocha Garcia shares her journey from growing up on the city’s West and South Sides to her leadership on the city council.

They discuss her priorities as a mayoral candidate—from continuing the city’s affordable housing push and evolving the Ready to Work program to her views on Project MARVEL, climate adaptation, and economic development. Rocha Garcia also reflects on the inequities in campaign fundraising and the need for San Antonio to remain a compassionate, connected, and forward-looking city.
