American millionaire Brian Johnson has opened up about a ten-minute Zoom encounter with Jeffrey Epstein that left him feeling “sick to his stomach”. Despite framing the meeting as a professional introduction to neuroscience, Johnson recalls an immediate, overwhelming sense of dread. Writing in X, the tech entrepreneur described Epstein as the most “intuitively evil” person he had ever met, explaining that a visceral “gut feeling” led him to cut all ties with the former financier years before Epstein’s crimes came to light.
The American millionaire tweeted about meeting Jeffrey Epstein after the recent files were released. (X/@remarks)”I met Epstein 8 years ago via Zoom. A mutual contact contacted us when I was building my brain interface company Kernel and he supposedly did some neuroscience stuff at MIT,” the billionaire recalled.

What email disclosureExplaining, he added, “After a ten-minute video call I immediately called the person who contacted us and told him that Epstein seemed like a very dark man. I felt sick to my stomach. I also told him that I never wanted to talk to him again. I remember it so clearly because I knew nothing about him but strangely, intuitively, there was nothing wrong with him even though he felt something dangerous. In the meantime, I never contacted him again and it was years later to find out. I realized that he had forgotten the past.”
In another tweet, he described the “unfiltered” version of the meeting, adding that he only remembers Epstein wearing a blue shirt.
Johnson revealed, “There was an obvious incentive for him to pursue a connection with me and he wanted to stay in touch at the end of the call. Instead, it was an immediate number the moment the call ended. A hard, instinctive ‘f**k no’. I was really relieved when the call ended.”
He described the former financier as “the most intuitively evil person” he had ever met. “It was visceral.”
Addressing whether he had knowledge of Epstein’s crimes, the millionaire clarified, “That’s the thing, it wasn’t part of my algo to check if someone I met was a registered sex offender. He wasn’t presented as some obvious outlier either. He was shrouded in credibility, positioned as relevant by others and featured in some important people. Randomly he was associated with institutional credibility.

Did Johnson offer to meet with Epstein in person?Social media had a lot to say. “Are you asking to meet her in person,” asked one person while sharing a screenshot from the newly released file dump.
Addressing the allegation, Johnson replied, “It was pre-call…I was proposing in person because I was traveling through NY. It ended up being a call (the first and last time I contacted him). I’m with you guys…horrible in hindsight.”
