Brian Johnson, popularly known as ‘Liver King’ has become a social media sensation due to his ripped physique and dedication to living an ancestral lifestyle. During a recent interview with the Impaulsive podcast, Liver King discussed Joe Rogan’s carnivore diet and steroid accusations while eating raw organ meat with Logan and Jake.
Liver King operates life in tandem with the nine tenets of ancestral living. Historically, ancestors hunted animals and consumed raw meat. Johnson, who goes by ‘Liver King‘ now, maintains that modern life has become too easy, and less fulfilling. In order to connect with the earth and live a happier and more fulfilling life, Liver King has adopted the ancestral way of living and believes it has made him more spiritual. He stays away from processed foods and believes in a carnivore-based diet.
YouTube influencer and boxer Logan Paul regularly hosts the Impaulsive podcast and decided to feature Liver King as a guest. With 23 million subscribers behind his podcast on YouTube, Logan has amassed a gigantic following since starting the venture in 2019.
Liver King Talks Carnivore Diet, Rogan Steroid Accusations with Logan Paul
Spreading the word of his ancestors, Liver King made a recent appearance on Impaulsive with host Logan Paul.
“When I hear that Carnivore MD, or Joe Rogan promoting this way of living, I’m like this is fuc**g amazing. You’re helping me do my job, this is my purpose in life. Then, there’s a part of me that’s like this is only a fraction of the story. There’s nine ancestral tenets, and as much as it is what we eat, it’s also what we don’t eat because we are constantly feeding ourselves. Who the fuc* says we should have breakfast, lunch and dinner. Then, you’re supposed to have snacks and you have this drink, right. I don’t know if it has calories in it, but we are continuously consuming calories.
The thing is, what we eat and what we don’t eat, honoring the feast and famine cycle is just as important. So to answer your question, I love it when people are talking about eating carnivorously. I love it when Joe Rogan does his thing. I think Joe Rogan shows that he has a transformation when he does it, I don’t know why he doesn’t do it longer.” Liver King told Logan.
After becoming famous on social media, Liver King became the subject of criticism as many questioned whether or not his ripped physique is natural or not. Popular podcast host Joe Rogan insinuated that Johnson’s physique isn’t natural. While Joe may disagree with Liver King on a few points, Brian Johnson is thankful Joe is spreading awareness about carnivorous diets nonetheless.
Liver King asserts that if he was using steroids, his legs would be as ripped as his upper body. Johnson has spoken out before about the matter and made it clear that he’s ‘never touched the stuff’ when responding to Rogan’s accusation.
“There’s a lot of sub-primals that are convinced that Liver King is taking steroids right. This is one of my favorite fuc**n topics. First thing, I’ll say this. You think if I was on steroids I would have these fuc**n appendages I have down here? These legs. Do you see how fuc**n little my fuc**n legs are? Here’s the thing, when I was in college, I weighed 175-lbs and I was single digit body fat. I started working out at 8 or 9 years old. I already had been working out for 10 or 12 years and now I’m 45 (years old) and I’ve gained less than one pound a year for over 25 years!
So this is what I say to people that make this accusation: if you don’t believe this is possible, then I suggest that you take that self-limiting belief, you put that shit in a fuc**n box and you bury that next to all your embarrassing shit and don’t open your fuc**n mouth about it. Let that live with you, don’t let that live with someone else. Because the highest and most dominant form that we have to express is in front of us. You hear people talk about peaking in their early 20s, I’m 45! Liver King exclaimed. If you look at Liver King at 45 and Brian Johnson at 20, Liver King is going to fuc**n murder that guy.”
Logan attempted to eat raw liver but ultimately couldn’t stomach the organ and vomit. His younger brother Jake Paul, however, took a chomp out of the liver with little hesitation. Given Liver King’s explosion into the limelight, more YouTubers are featuring his way of life and attempting to walk a mile in his shoes. The YouTube fitness duo Buttery Bros were the latest to try living out the nine ancestral tenets endorsed by Liver King, which shows the movement to eat raw organ meat is slowly building.

Liver King joined the Impaulsive podcast and gave Logan and Jake a taste of the ancestral way of living. In addition to discussing the benefits of carnivorous diets, Liver King cleared the air on his ongoing steroid accusations.
There were bigger more shredded guys in bodybuilding than that in the 40s and 50s before the steroid era. John T Grimeck, REG Park, etc. Knowledge of nutrition was in its infancy back then too.
