Elon Musk may know a thing or two about rockets and electronic vehicles, but during an interview with Joe Rogan, podcast, he revealed this week something of a blind spot regarding cannabis and said he thinks downtown is ‘fake’ .
This is not to say that he believes that the non-intoxicating cannabinoid does not actually exist. On the contrary, the tech entrepreneur has indicated that he feels overheated and “does nothing.” Rogan, in turn, had a lot to say about the benefits of cannabidiol.
The exchange begins with Musk and Rogan reflecting on an earlier podcast show in 2018, where the SpaceX and Tesla CEO blew up a marijuana stump (which he later claimed he never actually inhaled) , which led an investigation by NASA into the workplace safety of its airline. And compliance with a drug-free environment. ”
Rogan, who moved his podcast headquarters from California to Texas last year, noted that his new home state has not yet legalized marijuana, but “CBD is legal here.”
“SSK does nothing. Do it? “Musk said.” I think it’s fake. “
Listen below to Musk and Rogan discussing downtown, starting around 50:00:
Rogan immediately gave Musk an crash course on the numerous therapeutic benefits of downtown that have been identified in an ever-growing body of scientific literature.
Read the rest of the scholarship below:
JR: Well, no – no, it’s definitely doing something for inflammation.
EM: Do it?
JR: Yes, for sure.
EM: Well, how much downtown do you need to have before you realize it?
JR: Physically?
EM: Yes.
JR: Yes, physically you do not have to have much. Physically, CBD works great for people with arthritis and people with sore muscles and things like that. Yes, no, the city center certainly works for it, but in terms of psycho-effects, not much. It relieves anxiety for people.
EM: Well.
JR: It helps people to sleep, especially when combined with things like melatonin, you know, things in line. But that does not make you high. People do mix CBD with THC for muscle creams, and it does not increase you either, but it does increase the effectiveness.
EM: Well.
JR: Yes, there are some ice creams that are very good that such people contain THC and CBD.
EM: Okay, so you like sunscreen or something, and then I mean not just throwing it in there?
JR: Why not? Well, that’s great for hurting.
EM: You smell like weeds all day long.
JR: However, it does not smell like weeds.
EM: Is not it?
JR: No, no – some of them do. It’s the thing of anything that’s unregulated, right? Like hippies who make it, it’s always the problem.
EM: Quality control.
JR: Yes, no quality control. This is the problem with eating. They’re made by a bunch of crazy people who make them up and some, you know, Chula Vista apartments, you really do not know what’s in them.
Musk may not be quite up to par with downtown, but he enjoys playing in the marijuana culture from time to time.
For example, when shares of Telsa reached $ 420, he responded on Twitter with crying laughing emojis and said, “Whoa … the stock is so high lol.”
Of course, 420 is well-known among cannabis enthusiasts because it represents the unofficial cannabis holiday, 4/20. Nor was it the first time Musk played in it.
The billionaire technology entrepreneur landed in hot water with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in 2018 after he said he was considering taking Tesla private at a share price of $ 420 – an announcement that the SEC describes as “false and misleading” and made without required notice to regulators.
Rogan, in turn, is a proud enthusiast of cannabis and psychedelics, and for example once shared a story about how he hung out with Dave Chappelle while the comedian ate psilocybin mushrooms donated by a stranger.
Texas would study Psilocybin and MDMA to treat PTSD and depression under new bill
