Talk Is Jericho with JTG - EP204

Annie Lobert is a former high-class call girl who worked the Las Vegas strip for many years, before finally leaving the life and starting Hookers For Jesus, an organization to help other women living a life of prostitution get off the street. She's speaking candidly about her pimp, a man she calls her "human trafficker," her many near-death experiences including having guns pulled on her, being locked in the trunk of a car, and being beaten to within an inch of her life, kicking drugs, and the rock bottom that finally made her change her path. She shares her incredible story and how she finally got to a place of happiness with her husband, guitarist Oz Fox of Stryper fame.
