Joe Rogan Responds to Netflix Star Liver King’s Challenge in Passionate Address

PODCASTER Joe Rogan has addressed the public following a peculiar call-out from Netflix personality Liver King, who dared him to a fight in a curious Instagram post. 

Liver King, whose actual name is Brian Johnson, faced charges after issuing threats towards the renowned commentator and UFC figure.

According to court documents accessed by TMZ, Rogan, the host of the popular Spotify show The Joe Rogan Experience, was taken aback by the threats made by Johnson.

He reportedly told cops he wasn’t sure why Johnson was threatening him. 

Rogan also claimed it appeared Johnson, 47, needed help.

The U.S. Sun has approached Johnson for comment. 

Johnson was arrested at the Four Seasons hotel in Austin, Texas, after making the threats to Rogan.

“Man to man, I’m picking a fight with you,” he told Rogan in a clip that has gone viral.

Johnson claimed Rogan should win any bout comprehensively given his martial arts background. 

Rogan is a black belt in jiu-jitsu. 

Johnson was holding gold guns and wearing a wolf hat as he issued the threat to Rogan.

“Your rules, I’ll come to you, whenever you’re ready,” the Netflix star said.

A clip of Johnson being arrested was uploaded to his Instagram account. 

He was seen being led into a police car in the hotel parking lot. 

Johnson was charged with making a terroristic threat. 

If convicted, he could face a six month jail sentence and a fine of up to $2,000, according to the Law Office of E. Jason Leach.

Bearded Johnson looked disheveled in his mugshot as he stared at the camera.

Cops revealed their investigation remains ongoing. 

Johnson describes himself as a barbarian and went viral for his unconventional lifestyle, and his predominantly raw meat diet.

“Why would I have vegetables when I can eat testicles,” he quipped in a previous interview.

He credited the rather unique diet for giving him his physique.

But, he has been embroiled in controversy. In 2022, he was sued for $26 million after admitting to steroid use.

Johnson had previously denied using performance enhancing drugs. 

He spoke of his regret during a sitdown with Piers Morgan.

“I feel like a total piece of crap,” he said. 

“I know what I did was wrong. I lied about it. I feel like I’ve let an entire generation down.”

It emerged that he spent around $11,000 per month on the drugs.
