About the Show

Over 11 years and 570 episodes, John Rabe and Team Off-Ramp scoured SoCal for the people, places, and ideas whose stories needed to be told, and the show became a love-letter to Los Angeles. Now, John is sharing selections from the Off-Ramp vault to help you explore this imperfect paradise.

Intelligentsia Coffee Shop in Silverlake recently served up the world's most expensive coffee, known as "the Geisha" for free. It sold at auction for $130 a pound. Queena Kim drank twenty bucks worth, for free!
