Mike and Mondo Justin hang out with the actual blades and hookers on the Sunset Strip this week as they talk about Baron (John Daniels), AKA the Candy Tangerine Man. Loving husband by day... pimp by night. That's what Baron's got going on as he gets his $200 a day every day from his stable of hookers. But, there's trouble in paradise. Baron's threatened by other pimps, thugs, and vicious cops. You'll love to see how he handles it.
