Liver King Slapped With 200-Yard No-Go Zone Around Joe Rogan

Hold the double espresso because this is one wild rerun of our favorite real-life soap opera! Picture this: Liver King, the caveman-physique influencer turned headline magnet, can’t so much as breathe the same air as Joe Rogan within 200 yards. According to TMZ’s court documents and People Magazine’s report, after his June 24 arrest in Austin for a misdemeanor terroristic threat, the primal protein-peddler must avoid Rogan and his family—and absolutely no texting, tagging, or sliding into DMs. Consider this your official “They said what?!” moment.
Court filings obtained by TMZ show that a judge issued a no-contact order and set bond at $20,000. Within seven days of his release, Liver King has to waltz into a mental health evaluation—yes, you read that right. Law enforcement sources tell us officers arrested him without incident at the Four Seasons Hotel after Rogan said he never interacted with Johnson and found the influencer’s challenge to a “no-holds-barred brawl” threatening (per People). Rogan even hinted to authorities that LK might have a “significant drug issue.” Harsh, but that’s the kind of tea spilling that makes headlines.
If you’ve been sipping on low-key news, here’s the jittery recap: Liver King went full mountaintop monk on social media a day before his arrest, posting a flurry of videos demanding a cage match with Rogan. According to Rolling Stone, cops secured an arrest warrant based on those clips. Rogan’s camp told Variety they chalked it up to the influencer seeking clout—or maybe a spiraling spiral. Combine that with Johnson’s 2022 admission of steroids and HGH use, and you’ve got a reality show villain origin story.
Sources also confirm he’s been stripped of any weapons and must remain at least two football fields away from Rogan’s doorstep. This digital-age battlefield has drama, discipline, and those fancy court-mandated mental health check-ups we love to dissect. And if you thought that was the finale, we’re just warming up. Will Liver King chill out or crank the primal furnace even higher? Can the wild-man-turned-court-spectacle pivot to “good behavior influencer” status?
I need another latte after laying all that out, but one thing’s certain: this saga isn’t over. Stay tuned for updates on whether Johnson actually shows up for his psych evaluation or decides to flex his way back into headlines. Whew—I swear, I could talk about this all day.
