Brian Johnson, the fitness influencer known as Liver King, was arrested by the Austin Police Department after posting threatening videos online, specifically targeting podcaster Joe Rogan. In a June 23 Instagram video, Johnson explicitly challenged Rogan, despite having no training in martial arts. Johnson now faces a Class B misdemeanor charge for making terroristic threats. The police have contacted Rogan, who has no previous interactions with Johnson and regards the messages as threatening. The investigation into the matter is ongoing.
In one of the videos, Johnson challenged podcaster Joe Rogan to a fight in Austin, Texas where Rogan lives.
The Austin Police Department confirmed that Johnson made threats against Rogan on his Instagram account liverking, which has some 2.9 million followers.
