Troy Story: A Podcast for the Collar City

07: Amanda Tobias, Part 2

Episode Summary

We’re dropping part 2 of our interview with Amanda Tobias, educator and three-plus-decade resident of Troy’s Lansingburgh neighborhood.

Episode Notes

In the second half of our interview with Amanda Tobias, we explore her decision to run for City Council in 2019, the controversial but ultimately necessary closure of the Lansingburgh pool, the importance of young people getting involved in local elections, her favorite things about Troy, and what she wants to see happen in the community during the next 10 years.

Please stick around after the interview for a preview of a very special episode revisiting a major concert in Collar City history: Metallica at the RPI Field House, March 1989  (and an opportunity for you to be part of the podcast).
