“Liver King” Arrested For “Terroristic Threats” After Bizarre Trip To See Joe Rogan


It pains me to have to write this because I always liked the Liver King, but it appears as though he is in need of serious professional help.

The Liver King was officially arrested by Austin Police after posting several threatening videos about Joe Rogan and then flying down to Austin seemingly to meet up with him and fight him.

The recent videos have also shown the Liver King crawling around on the floor like an animal.

Oddly enough, it seems as though his wife is in many of these videos as well as his staff, and no one seems to think any of it is strange.

But the Austin Police thought it was strange, charging him with making “terroristic threats” to Joe Rogan:

Here’s a quick summary of all the strange details:

  • Brian Johnson, aka the Liver King, was arrested in Austin, TX, on June 25, 2025, after posting multiple threatening Instagram videos directed at Joe Rogan.

  • In the videos, Johnson challenged Rogan to a fight, saying things like “I’m picking a fight with you, man to man” and referencing Rogan’s black belt in jiu-jitsu.

  • Johnson traveled to Austin, where Rogan lives and records his podcast, prompting police action.

  • Austin police contacted Rogan, who stated he had never interacted with Johnson, considered the posts threatening, and believed Johnson appeared mentally unstable.

  • Johnson was arrested at the Four Seasons Hotel and charged with making a terroristic threat, a Class B misdemeanor.

  • He was later released from jail, but continued posting videos, referencing a restraining order, an ankle monitor, and a court-ordered psychiatric evaluation.

  • Johnson became famous for promoting the “ancestral lifestyle”, which includes eating raw animal organs. He has been criticized by health experts and admitted in 2023 to using steroids and HGH, contrary to his original claims.

  • Rogan had previously discussed Johnson’s steroid use on his podcast, but never hosted him as a guest.

  • Rogan has not made public comments since the incident, though he reportedly told police that Johnson might have serious mental health and drug issues.

  • Johnson’s arrest video was posted to his own Instagram account, where he has nearly 3 million followers, and he has continued doubling down on his threats since release.

  • Charges of “terroristic threats” seem a bit extreme, but here’s a breakdown of the Texas law:

    Under Texas law, a terroristic threat involves knowingly threatening violence to cause fear of imminent serious injury. Liver King’s videos challenging Joe Rogan to a fight, showing a knife and axe, and traveling to Austin led police to interpret intent to cause fear, especially since Rogan felt threatened. However, some argue it was a publicity stunt, not a true threat, possibly protected as free speech. The court will decide intent, but the charge hinges on perceived fear, not just action.

    The Liver King currently looks like this:

    There are literally dozens more, still up on his profile.

    For years, people accused the Liver King of taking steroids — a claim he vehemently denied.

    Then, two years ago, he came clean admitting to rampant steroid use:

    Many are noticing his one eye has a much larger pupil than his other eye:

    And his mouth now appears to be blue:

    But the Liver King has been public about recent damage done to his right eye.

    Watch here:

  • Liver King (Brian Johnson) suffered a serious eye injury in 2023 when a resistance band snapped and struck him in the face, knocking him unconscious.

  • He temporarily lost vision in both eyes, with his right eye suffering a severe retinal detachment requiring emergency surgeries.

  • Doctors warned he would likely lose central vision in the right eye and may need future surgeries for cataracts or further retinal issues.

  • He has not lost the eye physically, but wears an eye patch and is likely partially blind in that eye.

  • Recovery is ongoing, and while the eye is still intact, full vision restoration remains uncertain.

  • I will end this article the only possible way I know how…

    For flying to Austin to creep on Joe Rogan, I rate you — the Liver King — sub-PRIMMMMMMMAL!

    Get better.

    Get help.
