A.J. Herrington Published 6 hours ago on September 7, 2018 By A.J. Herrington Tech mogul Elon Musk shared a blunt with Joe Rogan on his show on Thursday night, shocking Tesla investors in the process. The high-profile smoke session was live streamed via YouTube on “The Joe Rogan Experience.” Musk also reportedly sipped whiskey during the recording of Rogan’s podcast, which included conversation about luxury watches, artificial intelligence, and Mars.
Rogan and Musk had been talking for about two hours when the show’s host pulled out a blunt to smoke, explaining that it was “marijuana inside of tobacco,” according to media reports.
“I think I tried it once,” Musk replied.
Before taking a hit, Musk clarified with Rogan that he would not be breaking the law.
“I mean, it’s legal, right?” he asked.
Musk then proceeded to take one long drag on the blunt, though some viewers were not convinced that he had actually inhaled.
Musk told Rogan that he did not use cannabis very much, saying that he did not “notice any effect” from smoking herb.
He then added that he was not personally against the use of cannabis.
“I know a lot of people like weed and that’s fine,” he added, “but I don’t think it’s very good for productivity.”
Musk had expressed similar sentiments about cannabis just three weeks earlier, in an interview with The New York Times.
“Weed is not helpful for productivity,” said Musk. “There’s a reason for the word ‘stoned’. You just sit there like a stone on weed.”
Before that interview, Musk had shaken financial markets with a tweet that indicated he wanted to take Tesla private, quoting a price of $420 per share for the buyout. The price chosen by Musk led many to speculate that he was making a reference to cannabis or was high when he posted the message. But he explained he had simply added a 20 percent premium to the trending share price and then rounded off the result.
“It seemed like better karma at $420 than at $419,” Musk said. “But I was not on weed, to be clear.”
Musk Waxes Philosophical After getting high with Rogan, Musk mused on what it would take to make the world a better place for humankind.
“It sounds corny,” said Musk, “but love is the answer.”
Rogan asked Musk how he would accomplish such a feat, wondering if he had invented a machine for the purpose.
“Probably spend more time with your friends and less time on social media,” Musk said. “I think people should be nicer to each other and give more credit to others and don’t assume they’re mean until they’re actually mean. It’s easy to demonize people.”
Before ending the program nearly three hours after it started, Rogan told Musk he hoped the show had been a good experience.
“I hope I didn’t weird you out and I hope you didn’t get mad that we smoked weed,” Rogan said.
Fallout Was Quick The response to Musk publically smoking weed came quickly. Even before the live stream was over, Musk was receiving feedback, telling Rogan that he was “getting text messages from friends saying ‘What are you doing smoking weed?'”
And hours later, shares in Tesla had dropped nine percent after Musk’s appearance with Rogan and a Friday morning announcement that the company’s chief accounting officer Dave Morton had resigned as of Tuesday. Morton had joined Tesla only one month earlier.

I find it funny his stock would go down over this. If anything it might help reduce some of the negative PR from him calling that coach a pedo Probably will either be back up before long, or keep going down for mostly unrelated reasons.

The weed part was whatever...
The take away message is about AI and how it is already much further advanced than most know. Like the robot that moves so fast that you need a strobe to see it.. etc...

The stock price went down over the resignation of the CAO, had nothing to do with Musk appearing on The Joe Roan Experience.
Crispykoot, I would like to see spme info on this robot you are speaking of, although I can't see how the speed os its movements have anything to do with AI...I'm just having trouble conceptualizing what you are talking about, it runs so fast? It moves its hand so fast?
I do have a problem with Musk's preconceptions about marijuana...it definitely can have a stoning effect, especially if you go to town on the munchies, but generally this comes hours AFTER smoking weed, of course potheads are always smoking so it appears as if they stoning effect occurs instantly when observing them, but when I would get high at work while doing something laborious I would come back inside and work circles around people, it wasn't until the high was fading that I would start dragging ass.
I mean, if all you want to do it sit around and get stoned, it's easy to say marijuana makes you do that but it doesn't; it's a choice to use it that way. It is plenty easy to be very active while using marijuana you just need to use in moderation and more importantly space out your doses.

Too funny how cannabis propaganda and the stigma caused by it is still alive and well. But what would you expect when drug propaganda is religiously drilled into kids by DARE and other narc agencies. Like religion narcs know that they have to get to kids before they can think for themselves in order to get them to believe in faith thier lies rather then facts and science. Narcs are as sure as Nazis that minorities including drug users are the cause of all the problems in the world. Lets do to Narcs what Jews did to Nazis!!! Fair is fair!

When I smoke MK-ultra I do just sit like a stone, however when I smoke purple haze it gets me going unless I smoke way too much of it that is.
Personally I don't smoke when playing chess or working with power tools, however if painting or doing other mindless tasks I try to be as stoned as possible. Join us and you will see the light.

Every saturday for the last 10 months, i have missed 4.. And i smoked weed for 35 years, i'm sure i didn't get indica every time for those 35 years:) Weed just makes me feel sluggish and slow.. Acid makes me feel like superman for 2 days, love it so much.
FYI sativa takes twice as long to grow and yields half as much as an indica.
I know how you feel I've love tripping on shoorms so i did it every weekend I could. I took a tolerance break after a seven gram bad trip, it mostly centered around an auditory hallucination of screaming sounds coming from the ground along with just about every irrational fear you could think of. Shit happens.
Just wondering back when I did acid in the 80s it lasted only 8 to 10 hours with no after effects the next day. Are you sure its really acid your doing?

False.
Sativas take only roughly 10-15 more days to flower compared to indicas and you can pull off just as much weight whether it be indica or sativa

Stocks didn't go down because of the podcast ,it went down because a senior executive or someone similar resigned.
I listened to the entire podcast ,not knowing much of him or his personality, I was pleased to see he was well spoken and in no way cocky or egocentric. He gave simple but great advice. I agreed with pretty much all he said except his t-shirt that read "occupy Mars" because I think we should fix our fuck ups on this planet before we occupy another..
