Leo Laporte (also known as "King Leo") is the creator of the TWiT Netcast Network, who pays Brian's paychecks for NSFW.
In NSFW #13 (W1NNER GAM3S), Justin represented TWiT and thus swore fealty to Leo. Later, at SXSW, BOTH Brian and Justin kneeled before Leo... who subsequently ordered their decapitation.
It is rumored that Leo will be changing TWiT's tagline from "Netcasts you love...from people you trust. This is TWiT." to "Netcasts you love...from people you trust (and Brian and Justin). This is TWiT." However, this rumor is most likely false because Leo very likely still has no idea who Justin is.
Leo often has to defend NSFW from haters in the normal TWiT chat room who keep asking when he is going to cancel the show (because NSFW gets lower numbers compared to other TWiT shows, and Leo had previously cancelled other underperforming shows). He eventually said that he would never cancel NSFW no matter how bad it got, but admits that he doesn't watch the show because he doesn't want to be seen as "unnecessary adult supervision."
