Off-Ramp for Jul 04, 2009
July 4, 2009|0 commentsIn 2007, animation expert Charles Solomon was Off-Ramp's guide at Anime Expo, the nation's biggest convention focusing on Japanese animation and comic books. We talked with voice actors, fans in costume, a mom on her birthday, and more. Anime Expo 2009 is at the LA Convention Center this weekend, so we bring back some of the great segments from our 2007 visit and preview AE 2009 with web-exclusive interviews.

NOTE FROM JOHN RABE:
Welcome to Off-Ramp, the best* local public affairs show in the nation, with beautiful lacquered memories of Southern California ... at very reasonable prices.
This week Garrison Keillor muses about another force of nature, Jesse "The Body Politic" Ventura; Brian Watt has third-row seats (from the back) at the Coliseum for the Lakers rally; and we explore the controversy over OCMA's sale of 18 California Impressionist paintings. If you break it, you buy it.

In November, a windswept wildfire bore down on Sylmar, California. Within hours it had consumed 480 homes at Oakridge Mobile Home Park - the worst loss of homes in LA since the 1961 Bel Air fire. In "The Ashes of Oakridge," Queena Kim and Frank Stoltze take an in-depth look at the fire and its fallout.
During the KPCC member-pledge drive, please keep in mind that it's your support makes documentaries like "the Ashes of Oakridge" possible. And thanks for listening.
