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.

Sanden Totten, KPCC's science reporter, took one for the team the other day. Took a shower, that is.
With his girlfriend holding the mike and the stopwatch, Sanden tried a Navy shower - using water only when needed (wetting hair, rinsing), and shutting it off when not needed (lathering hair, scrubbing between toes).
Find out how much water he saved compared to a regular shower, and then hear his interview with an astronaut to find out how much water, it turns out, he wasted.
