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.

Architect Gerard Colcord designed over 300 homes in the last century--many of them in Beverly Hills. Colcord expert Bret Parsons and Colcord homeowner Stephanie Stern share the architect's masterwork with John.
