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.

Funding provided by:

Corporation for Public Broadcasting

John listens in as CBS-2 Anchor Laura Diaz takes roll call of all the trades involved in constructing LA Live. Actor Jimmy Smits (who co-owns the Conga Room) and Mayor Villaraigosa chime in.
