a podcast that is normally about the terrors. But today, today we're talking about, I mean, technically still the terrors, but we're talking about a more fun part of the terrors. We're talking about the liver king. Thank God. Thank God. Dods and kings, two things we famously appreciate on this podcast.

With me today is James Stout and Meele Wong. What do y'all know about the liver king? I thought you were going to give us cool titles. Just if we could just go back and you could each give us some kind of, some kind of nobility and a food stuff. Yeah, sure. James, you are the tea leaf salad that made you really sick that one time, King.

It's true. I think that tea leaf salad ruled me actually. Yeah. Made me its subject. Yeah. Mia, you know, you and I haven't eaten a lot of meals together. We need to do more of that. Right.

We need to do more of that. You're the, I have not eaten many meals with me yet, but hopefully will, Queen. Incredible. Incredible. Incredible. Now, the liver king is the king of liver as you're all I'm certain well aware and yeah I did we did a bastards of the live episode I did a couple of years ago with dr.

Kaveh Hoda and in case you're not aware the liver King is a guy who like three two or three years ago started to get really famous very suddenly and Obtained millions of followers. I think up to like six at one point on Instagram By getting super jacked. He was this huge shredded guy or he's not he's not actually very tall But he was shredded and he would he was always perpetually shirtless Usually wearing very little and talking about his different primal rules how mainly you need to eat nothing but liver and testicles Often raw and that's all you need to do in order to get huge.

And then you can just lift hundreds and hundreds of pounds and you'll get swollen and gigantic, totally natty because we're supposed to eat like primal cavemen who only ate testicles and liver. And then again, I left the rest. Now, excepting how none of this is accurate, it came out very soon after that, because the liver king, prior to becoming the liver king, had been a series of petty grifters of lower nobility, and had written an email to a guy who was like an expert on performance enhancing drugs, asking like what kind of regimen he could take in order to get the size that he eventually became.

Anyway, it came out that he's been spending like $13,000 a month on steroids, like that's how he got huge. It's not the testicles, it's out that he's been spending like $13,000 a month on steroids. Like that's how he got huge. It's not the testicles, it's not the livers, it's not these absurd videos of him eating different organ meats or making his kids eat different organ meats. It's not his weird workout tactics, it's the fact that he's taking $13,000 worth of gear a month, right? Now one of the first people to call him out before this came out was Joe Rogan who saw the And you know, I'll give Joe Rogan credit for one thing. He knows when someone's on steroids So Joe Rogan had called him out initially being like there's no way this guy's natural right like he's taking fucking steroids

It's very obvious now to be fair Everyone knew that because it's very like I don't know shit about steroids And I look at that guy is like his belly button pushes out It's not talking about an outie no no I'm talking about it's a golf ball size protrusion The organs are trying to escape Is so clearly 80% steroids by volume This man is so clearly 80% steroids by volume You will steroid to body mass that has ever existed Yeah, it's nuts stuff so he lost a shitload of his followers, and he's still got like 3 million on Instagram

But his videos he's lucky to get a couple of thousand like likes and shares these days on an Instagram video And you know before that all came out, he was doing much more. He had to do a mea culpa. He claims he's all natty now. And he has, just over the last couple of years, just continually degraded, right? Now this guy's business, which he made millions doing, or one of his businesses, was selling different supplements.

He's very expensive supplements, and he's built kind of a little cult at his compound in Texas around, listening to fucking dance music from the mid aughts, a lot of like Mike Posner remixes and weird shit, while giving rants about being a caveman, and like pulling, trapped your equipment and shit. Well, he likes to always walk around with fucking,

with a plate carrier on, which he calls his exoskeleton in order to like, you know muscle mass or whatever In any way he's continually degenerate to the point where those of us who call ourselves liver King watchers Have all kind of been saying for a while now. Oh, he's not just on gear anymore Like he's doing he's he's doing other drugs and they have had they are really having a negative effect on his mental health Yeah, he doesn't seem well. He does not seem well. So I'm gonna put a video play video on this is a video He's doing other drugs and they are really having a negative effect on his mental health. Yeah, he doesn't seem well.

He does not seem well. So I'm going to play a video on this. This is a video that started it all. He started a couple of weeks ago, increasingly threatening Joe Rogan. And he doesn't live that far away from Austin. He started posting a series of videos trying to threaten Joe Rogan to a fight. And I'm going to post to you the one, this is kind of like the key video that gets this series of events started.

It's the video that is the inciting incident video for everything that's happening now, right? So that's what I'm gonna play for you guys. You see the Instagram? Okay, so in this video listeners, you're gonna hear him talk. In this video, he's got, again, like music playing in the background.

He's wearing a badly taxidermied wolf head that's like a cape over his regular head. It's a really cute wolf, it's so cute. It's like a dirt wolf. It looks really dirty. He's shirtless, he's wearing shorts, and as one user noted in the comments, his pants are vibrating as he talks,

and he is carrying in each hand, he has a gold-plated AR-15 short barreled rifle with a fucking blast forward In my entire life. I have never seen a man look less intimidating while holding a gun wearing a wolf pelt Two guns man, two guns That's a second gun? Two guns, yes Holy shit, it looks like a blunderbuss Those are two gold-plated AR-15 SBRs

with a gold EOTech on top in case he hadn't spent enough money. Yeah, yeah, and I think a gold one on the other. So anyway, listen to this man. Joe Rogan, I'm calling you out. My name's Liberty. Man to man. I'm picking a fight with you. Yes. I have field training, as you did Yes. I have still training as you did.

So you're a black belt. You should dismantle me. When I'm picking a fight with you, you'll rule. Whenever you want me to wait, I'll wait. I'll wait one nighty this morning. I'll come wait. I'll come to you.

Whenever you're ready. Whenever you're ready to go. I'm on a vibration plate by the way. Everyone say you go off. And then he just starts dancing. I'm sorry. So, I'm on a vibration plate by the way. That's a healthy man. That's a guy who's doing well, right?

We can all agree. He is literally buzzing. The restoration plate, by the way. That's a healthy man. That's a guy who's doing well, right? We can all agree. He is literally buzzing. I saw a video one time where someone was reacting to a Drake video and his response was, those are the least intimidating goons I've ever seen in my entire life. And that is the entire vibe of watching him

trying to bring someone to a fight. It's a stocking. It's something else. It is special. It is special. It is special. And if you couldn't quite make out the audio over whatever the fuck that music was, what he says in that is, Joe Rogan, I'm calling you out.

My name's Liver King. Man to man, I'm picking a fight with you. I have no training in jujitsu. You're a black belt. You should just dismantle me. But I'm picking a fight with you. Your rules. I'll come to you whenever you're ready.

Holding the A.R.s does give that a slightly different- A slightly more terroristic threat vibe, right? Why are you holding the ARs? Because he goes on to say in another post, you never come across something like this, willing to die, hoping that you'll choke me out because that's a dream come true, which makes it sound like a sex thing, right?

Oh, no. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That makes it sound like a sex thing. Yeah. Oh. He closed out Pride Month. So this video comes out and then Liver King starts making a series of videos

in Austin, right? He drives to Austin, he's making videos on the way, he makes videos when he gets there, and he keeps saying he wants to fight Joe Rogan. Now, he's just saying he wants to fight him, right? He's not saying, I'm gonna kill you. He's not saying like, I'm going to assault you. He's like, he's asking for he wants to fight him, right? He's not saying, I'm gonna kill you. He's not saying like, I'm going to assault you. He's like, he's asking for a consensual fight,

but he's also posing with weapons and he has now traveled to Austin and he's clearly unwell. So Joe Rogan has a security team. He's got a bunch of like former operators and shit that he pays to watch over his security and whatnot. And sometimes go on his podcast, if I'm not mistaken. And they do their job, which is,

oh, there's a guy threatening our boss, holding guns and photos, and he's traveled to Austin. We should probably call the cops. We should probably do something about this. So they give a call to the police and they're like, hey, we consider this to be numerous threats, right? He's traveled to Austin. This seems like a guy

who might actually act seriously on his threats. We're concerned about this. So the police wind up talking to Joe Rogan himself and Rogan says, yeah, my security team told me about this. I consider these to be threats and I'm willing to file a police report, right? He tells the police that Brian Johnson has a drug issue, which again, it's weird to be like,

yeah, Joe Rogan so far, not wrong about any of this. And he's like, he's unstable, he probably needs help, which again, probably accurate, right? I don't think there's much to argue with here. So the police decide, these cross the line into terroristic threats and they file charges. The liver King is arrested He's not in jail long. He's released within a day on $20,000 bond. There's a restraining order

He's not allowed to have guns anymore for a while. He's gonna stay 200 yards away from Rogan So the liver King does exactly what a guy like the lip you'd expect a guy like the liver king to do, right? In the wake of something like this happening, which is he immediately gets out of jail and starts making more videos. Oh, of course. Yeah. Yeah. From his hotel room in Austin.

And again, these are just the videos of a really healthy guy who's doing well, whose brain is not, has not liquefied and isn't coming out of his ears is the man who seems healthy. Thank you for all the prayers by the way people pray for me you should also pray for yourself pray for your family walk that down this bump down lock it down you should do all that i am going to the capital. already in the capital but we're going to like capital capital the location and I've been given the gift of a restraining order just recently and so if anybody knows if someone else whose first name rhymes with blow whose last name is Rogan I'm not allowed to say it for copyright I might sue you about every you're not allowed to laugh I'll copyright. I might sue you about it. You're not allowed to laugh. I'll put you in jail on that one too.

Okay, so first off, he starts this. He admits in another video, he closed a little earlier, that he hasn't slept in days. Like, and he hasn't been eating? And he is slurring his words at the start of this. He is not well. I don't think he's sober, but it could just be sleep deprivation

and the fact that something else is awry. And he's like going to the Capitol. He says he wants to go to the Capitol to like start a legal precedent. He says, liver King V Joe Rogan is gonna be like one of the great legal battles of our century in terms of setting precedent. What kind of precedent?

It's gonna be the new Dred Scott. I gotta play you guys another video from right after his arrest in terms of like seeing how well this man is doing. This is the one where he talks about having not slept in days. It's gonna zoom in on his eyes and I need you to look at his pupils. Okay? Because this is this seems like a man who's had a serious head injury to me. Cause his, his, one of his pupils

is a very different size from the others. Good morning Primus. Oh wow. From the vibration of the play that the greatest whole state in the world, Austin, Texas. Texas is the state, just to be clear bags under my eyes have slept a whole lot and it's been an amazing gift. What do you what do you see there people with medical training.

Yeah the human I shouldn't do that is like. Yeah they're not supposed to look like that that That's one of the... That's a sign of a serious... That's one of the bad signs. One of his eyes is like 20 times bigger than the other pupil? It's bad. Yeah. Like, if I cared about this man, I would get him to a hospital immediately. Yeah, immediately. Now to be clear, I don't. I don't I Gotta wonder the liver a filtering organ right it takes the bad stuff out I feel like if that's all you eat you're gonna concentrate the bad stuff Vitamin a poisoning she almost certainly asked by now You did this one like slip him a bear liver or something polar bear liver like what yeah going on here

Yeah, yeah, yeah, he went up the food chain until he ate that wolf's liver and then put it on his head. Yeah. It's very unclear to me, is he actually eating that much liver? Like, there's videos where he does, but like on a daily basis, he's also taking gear. So maybe he has a normal diet in order to like, you know, outside of it and this is just for show. There's been a lot of theorizing about that and we just don't know. But either way, I think it's safe to say this is a sick man, right? This is not a well person.

Yeah, his Instagram comments are not helping. They're not. They're not. One of the big comments. Just give this man a gun immediately. Yeah. Keep trying to fight Joe Rogan, but I believe you can do it. To be fair, right now, if someone is putting out a casting call for deranged man and like prophet in the desert, he looks exactly like that.

Absolutely. Be incredible at it before he went completely nuts. He looks amazing. He looks incredible. He's got like two foot of beard, his hair is unkempt. He looks like, if you know the mural of John Brown, John Brown is like yoked and really angry. Yes, yes. That is what he looks like. if you know the mural of John Brown, yeah, John Brown is like, joked and really angry.

Yes, yes, yes. That is what he looks like. Yes, he does. Different vibes. Speaking of different vibes, let's change up the vibes and play some ads.

We were interns at the Nashville Tennessean, but the most unforgettable part, our roommate, Reggie Payne, from Oakley, sports editor and aspiring rapper. And his stage name, Sexy Sweat. In 2020, I had a simple idea.

Let's find Reggie. We searched everywhere, but Reggie was gone. In February, 2020, Reggie was having a diabetic episode. His mom called 911. Police cuffed him face down. He slipped into a coma and died. I'm like thanking you, but then I see my son's not moving.

No headlines, no outrage, just silence. So we started digging and uncovered city officials bent on protecting their own. Listen to Finding Sexy Sweat on the iHeart radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Over the past six years of making my true crime podcast, Hell and Gone, I've learned one thing. No town is too small for murder. I'm Katherine Townsend. I've learned one thing. No town is too small for murder. I'm Catherine Townsend. I've received hundreds of messages from people across the country begging for help with unsolved murders.

I was calling about the murder of my husband. It's a cold case. They've never found her. And it haunts me to this day. The murderer is still out there. Every week on Hell and Gone Murder Line, I dig into a new case, bringing the skills I've learned as a journalist and private investigator

to ask the questions no one else is asking. Police really didn't care to even try. She was still somebody's mother, she was still somebody's daughter, she was still somebody's sister. There's so many questions that we've never gotten any kind of answers for. If you have a case you'd like me to look into,

call the Hell and Gone Murder Line at 678-744-6145. Listen to Hell and Gone Murder Line on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back. So friends, I gotta play you this next video, which is after he gets out of jail, he goes to the Capitol and this is him going through security at the Capitol as best I can tell. And he is, he's wearing like a fucking waiting length pants, like pants that cut off just

below your knees. So like they're high water sweatpants. Yep. He's wearing like a sleeveless green hoodie and he has the hood up over his head. And then he's wearing a plate carrier and he's trying to go through Capitol security. Oh my God. It's just, it's just really funny.

It's just two ladies in like security uniforms, they're letting him try to go through And I think this proves that he's if he was wearing ceramic plates I don't think it would set off the metal detector I don't think that's anything to do with that. So he's gotta be wearing those cheap AR 500 metal plates. Oh, it's set up to detect a well Oh, yeah. Yeah, I mean it's possible. This doesn't look like just a weight vest that looks like just a normal plate carrier, although it's- Yeah, it's a 511 Tactec. Yeah, yeah, it looks like, yeah. So I think you just get AR 500 plates in there.

Of course. I mean, they're probably just weight plates. They may not even be AR 500. Yeah, they may not even be ballistic. They could be cast iron. He tells them it's his exoskeleton, so he has to keep it on. I don't think he gets in wearing this.

Oh no, I don't think he gets in wearing this Man I love I love the liver cake I was really not expecting him to turn into a lobster, but apparently that's where we're at That's where we're at yeah, yeah, you're right given his yeah So there's one more video from his time in Austin before we'll get back to the liver king compound and see the liver queen a little bit. Oh no. That person is going through the mental health equivalent of the Q course right now,

watching their one source of income. Yeah, I don't know. I have to hope if you're the liver queen, you have pretty good insurance for the liver king. Yeah, you hope so. I don't know how long they've been liver monarchs together, whether she was with him before he went completely fucking mongers or... I don't know how much time there was before that happened, to be honest. Was it an arranged marriage? Like, previous monarchies?

Yeah, sure, yeah. She's actually from the lung family, but they had to marry her off to forge an alliance. I'm gonna have to demand that we watch, is LK's back vulnerable if he only stands to strike? Because I need to see that. There's a lot of liver king fighting videos, and none of them are all that impressive. So one where he fights like a horse sized duck or a hundred duck sized horses. There's a video where he goes hunting with his kid and he's talking about how it's like a primal experience, but all that happens is he pays a guy

to take him into the woods, it's like 40 feet away from a deer and then they just shoot the deer. Outstanding. Where his native American guide is like, okay, you can shoot it now. For fuck's sake. It's really funny.

It's pretty good. Okay. What? What the fuck is happening? He's just crab walking like a gorilla down like the hall of his hotel. What is happening? It's beautiful stuff.

It's good stuff. What's happening? It's beautiful stuff. It's good stuff. What's happening now? He's doing fake martial arts moves. And he comes out the door with straight gorilla crab walk. Yeah, he's just doing his gorilla crab walk that he does, his like fist bump. He has like a little chant that he makes people say. This one's a pound, what do we do? Lock it down.

He appears to be wearing an ankle monitor. Yeah, he is wearing an ankle monitor. This one pounds, what do we do? Lock it down. He appears to be wearing an ankle monitor. Yeah, he is wearing an ankle monitor. Yes, that's my favorite part of the video. He does have to wear an ankle monitor now. Someone's commented, is that an ancestral ankle monitor? Hahahaha! I can't emphasize enough, that is not a normal crab walk. I don't know how to describe what that is I

It genuinely defies description. It is the weird Forms of motion I've ever seen the human Imagine if the gorilla was drunk We're gonna go back to ads real quick and then when we come back, we're gonna finally see the liver queen and Him back in his compound talking to his fellow friends Um about how how things are really good how he wanted to get arrested for threatening joe rogan How it's a blessing to have a restraining order against him and to not be able to be in possession of his guns anymore Jesus Christ. other AI companies are dead set on lying to your boss that they can take your job.

So we started digging and uncovered city officials bent on protecting their own. Listen to Finding Sexy Sweat on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back and I'm going to play that video for you guys once again. So he is standing in the yard of the liver King compound. His wife is drinking a glass of wine next to him. And at a point of this kind of reluctantly takes his hand. They are listening to a, like, I think it's a, I think you'd call it a trance remix of Mike Posner's I Took a Pill in Ibiza. So I don't know why.

It's just blasting over the yard as he talks as he rants about his arrest. There's zero grace. There's zero. I really understand. I really, I get it, I really do. And I'm not asking for it, I don't need it. But it's, it's hard. It's, it's, uh... The hardest part's over. The hardest part's fuckin' over. That's gravy. That's really good. The hardest part's over. Getting arrested. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

For threatening toRoken. His wife really doesn't want to take his hand. He has a keffiyeh draped around his shoulders. A tactical keffiyeh, no less. He's wearing a tactical keffiyeh. He loves his tactical keffiyeh. It's good stuff. Yeah, he's just doing really healthy.

He seems to have added mag pouches for this one, which suggests that he removed them for his trip to the capital. He didn't have to remove the mag pouches to go to the capital. So he really thought it through and thought, I bet I can wear it if I take the mag pouches off. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Which is fascinating to me.

He looks like a puffer fish. It's incredible what tests look like of puffer fish. Yeah. And it looks like he's taken so many steroids that he is literally inflated. They are trying to get out. Yeah. Yeah.

So in this last video that we're going to play, he's sitting on a throne. He's got a throne. He talks about how he thinks the throne is silly now and how he wouldn't have liked past liver king and how people talk about how he's lost it. And he thinks that's a compliment because I think he's making a point about ego death here,

but it's not very coherent. So here's the liver king talking about how it's good to lose your mind. Just walking through the foyer, I saw these old thrones, and I just kind of laughed, and I was like, oh, God, you know, kind of a little bit embarrassed. And I thought, oh, you you know what I don't think I made a video today I said I was going to so I better I better deliver on it but

it was Sunday family day God's Day capital G day we did that then man it was that was good and so I'm walking by this one this throne old throne and I thought Buffalo's real That's that's legit that's gonna stay but I thought oh my god, you know the predecessor me I would have hated me too I Read some comments today or yesterday and I saw he's losing a lot and this is says it on my desk lose yourself the thing is like when you actually lose

yourself though and you lose the ego you can't really tell people you know because then it's like hey yeah actually shed my ego and now tell people, you know, cause then it's like, hey, yeah, I actually shed my ego and now I'm better, you know? That's the ego talking. So if other people are seeing it, whoa, thank you, thank you. Or I can also go back to the egomaniac or whatever. So here's the thing, folks. The new DSM that's coming out,

I think they're going to increase the age at which you could be diagnosed as a schizophrenic for male up to like 40 or something like that and boy howdy. Real truly like real Ross Putin vibes from this one. He's got like a hood on. He really is obsessed because his hair, he's got less and less of it every day. And that'll happen with testosterone. He really is obsessed, because his hair, he's got less and less of it every day. Yeah. That'll happen if you have testosterone.

Would you take anything but pure test? Yes. Yeah, yeah. Would you like poor testosterone on your cereal in the morning? Yeah. So anyway, that's my update for everyone on the Lipper King. He's doing well. I'll be shocked if he's alive in a year.

What a fantastic man. He's got kids, but he also makes the meat raw testicles So I don't know if they're gonna be worse off Yeah Yeah, I think that is probably one of those rare station intervene moments. Yeah something should have something should be done here Yeah, this doesn't seem like a healthy guy. I'd know if you should eat just organ meats No, apparently like eating a diet that is entirely consists of raw organs Random pharmaceuticals and gear makes you like talk exactly the same as like a 19 year old art student. Yeah, yeah

Enough ketamine to like tranquilize a horse Apparently equivalent states of being this is what I've learned from this yeah These are apparently equivalent states of being, this is what I've learned from this. Yeah. I think ketamine is one possible explanation because some of his behavior is definitely like ketamine-coded. Yeah. But I also think there's a good chance that this is just like he's been abusing drugs for such a long period of time that he's just suffering permanent brain damage now at this point.

Right? Like he's, he's not able to like, he's not very cogent anymore. And I don't know, I feel like the people who are still around him are largely taking advantage of him for money. Like he was good at making money at one point, they're still cash flooding in. And that's, that's kind of what's happening here. But on the other hand like this is this guy made his own hell He made his own bed. He's getting exactly what he wants Yeah, he lied to people about their health, which is a pretty fucked up thing to do like yeah I don't have a lot of sympathy for the living. No, I don't have a lot of sympathy for the liver King Anyway, any questions about the liver King before we roll out? I

so many Robert more than you can ever imagine. Okay, on a scale of like 0.01 to 1 Gaddafi, how are his golden ARs? I mean, they're golden ARs. Like, they're fine. They're definitely like dictator-grade ARs. I'll give them that. Like if you saw that in like some fucking junta leader, you know, carrying it around and screaming

about executing his enemies, you'd be like, yeah, that fits. That said, I do think if you are going to be carrying a gold plated weapon, an AR is just inherently less impressive than an AK-47. Like a golden AK-47 says something about you. And a golden AR just says that you have like $15,000 to light on fire for no good reason. Whereas a gold-plated AK-47 says, you've probably mixed cocaine and gunpowder. You know? Yeah, why not? Yeah. That's some advice for the liver king, for free. You have to be sending positive messages out into the world with

your apparel. Exactly. Exactly. Yes. Just why I'm wearing the derpiest wolf. Find the fucking wolf. Like the indignity of it being killed is, is not its final indignity as it turns out.

Yeah. No, that's, that's as bad as it can go for a wolf. Yeah, pretty much. You go from the top of the food chain to this guy's balding, uh, cranial. Yeah. I know. Have a fucking vegetable everyone. That's what I have for you.

Yeah. Have, have vegetables, eat more vegetables. Oh, we haven't talked about how he squats. He doesn't squat with the bar. He squats with the rack. We haven't talked about how he squads it doesn't squat with the bar. He squads with the rack Yeah, now we forgot to mention that that is very funny Yeah, God everyone go on this. It's a terrible fucking time to be alive go on his Instagram. It's funny. Yeah, it's really funny

Have some fun. Enjoy the liver Kings Instagram While he's still alive for another like four to six months. I'm not taking any pleasure in this. I don't want him to die. I'm just looking at a man and being like, well, that's not gonna last much longer. Yeah, this is like watching a car without brakes. Yeah. Traveling downhill at speed. Yeah. Alright everyone, have a good night.
