Liver King Arrested After Threats Toward Joe Rogan

News summary

Brian Johnson, known as 'Liver King,' was arrested in Austin, Texas, and charged with making a terroristic threat after posting a series of aggressive social media videos directed at podcaster Joe Rogan, referencing Rogan’s jiu-jitsu training. Some of the videos reportedly showed Johnson handling firearms, which authorities believe contributed to the severity of the charge under Texas law. Johnson, who promotes an 'ancestral lifestyle' online, also exhibited erratic behavior in the days before his arrest, raising concerns among fans and authorities. He was booked into Travis County Jail and held on a $20,000 bond, with a court hearing expected soon. The Austin Police Department has not confirmed if Rogan was the specific target named in the complaint, and further details are pending. Joe Rogan has not commented publicly on the incident.
