The sly wit of this documentary shines through as it follows a toxically masculine fitness influencer who consumes so many raw animal organs you can almost taste the salmonella. It is frequently hilarious

    As usual, self help gurus are scammers. Macho self help gurus are dangerous. What an absolute trash person. Hope his kids will be OK.

      When I read this article I thought it was a mock-u-mentary. I didn’t realize this was real life until your post wth.

    Having piously attributed his inhumanly buff, conker-y body to the benefits of eating dicks and going on podcasts, it is proved that Johnson has, in fact, been injecting steroids to the tune of more than $11,000 a month.

    Hahaha

    Dr Mike just did another Liver King video and he’s definitely lapsed into severe mental illness territory, more-so than before

      The YT channel is “Renaissance Periodisation” for anyone interested in Bodybuilding/Steroids/Fitness/Dick Jokes.

      Dr Mike is one of my favorite people, I genuinely think he would probably be a fun guy to hang out with.

      Nearly every comment on that video sounds like they didn’t even watch the trailer.

      Yes, I was thinking the same, but a part of me thinks we shouldn’t be giving these people the attention. It’s a self perpetuating illness. Others, even less deranged, may be tempted to copy if it gains popularity.
