‘Liver King’ has charges dropped — and goes straight back to ranting about fighting Joe Rogan

Disgraced influencer Brian “Liver King” Johnson quietly had his charges dropped for allegedly making terroristic threats against Joe Rogan — and he’s already back ranting online about wanting to fight the black-belt podcaster.

The 48-year-old YouTuber was nabbed in June after he traveled to Rogan’s hometown of Austin, Texas, and posted alarming videos on social media about wanting to fight the host while holding what appeared to be two guns.

Johnson — who notoriously lied about his steroid-popping muscular physique only being down to a diet of raw organs and testicles — was slapped with the misdemeanor terrorist threat charge over the unhinged ordeal.

He was later cut loose on a $20,000 bond and ordered to wear an ankle monitor — with his charges quietly dropped on Nov. 12, The Post has confirmed.

The charge was dismissed after he completed a spate of “counselling classes,” court records show.

Just weeks later, Johnson is already back taunting Rogan on social media — and angrily attacking him over the initial legal drama he faced for his unhinged tirades.

“They weren’t threats. A challenge. A fight. Come on, drama king,” Johnson said in the video aimed at Rogan, the highly trained martial artist and UFC commentator.

“That’s what’s happening. Still challenging Joe Rogan to a fight. You can’t run forever, you’re eventually going to have to say something.”

The remarks echoed the apparent threats that landed Johnson in hot water in the first place.

“Joe Rogan, I’m calling you out, my name’s Liver King. Man to man, I’m picking a fight with you,” he said in the initial video posted in June.

“I have no training in jiu-jitsu; you’re a black belt, you should dismantle me. But I’m picking a fight with you. Your rules, I’ll come to you, whenever you’re ready.”

It still isn’t clear why Johnson targeted the podcast host.

While Johnson has never appeared as a guest on “The Joe Rogan Experience,” the influencer has come up multiple times on the show in discussions about performance-enhancing drugs.

The macho meat-lover was forced to admit in 2022 that his physique was a result of steroids.

Until then, he’d claimed that his diet of raw meat, animal testicles, liver and fertilized chicken eggs explained his freakish frame.
