Joe Rogan Getting High With Elon Musk Makes International News and Affects the Stock Market
Everyone is talking about Elon Musk taking a hit off a joint while appearing on Joe Rogan’s podcast this week. It was Musk’s first public interview since last month’s market shaking attempt to take his company private. Musk enjoyed his visit to the Joe Rogan Experience.
Musk was curious about Rogan’s smoking accessories. “Is that a joint?,” he asked, “or is it a cigar?”
“You probably can’t because of stockholders,” Rogan said before offering the joint to his guest. Musk accepted, pointing out that it isn’t against the law. “I mean, it’s legal right?” Musk asked. “Totally legal,” Rogan asked, following up asking him if people get upset when he does certain things.
The two got into plenty of pot talk, not uncommon on The Joe Rogan Experience, discussing “the difficulty of being me” according to Musk, whether a flamethrower is really a flamethrower, the future of AI, how Musk’s mind works, and Rogan suggesting meditation and isolation tanks.
Tesla’s stock has taken a dive to a new low today, although financial publications can only speculate as to how much of that fall is connected to Musk appearing on the podcast.
