<p>Tesla CEO Elon Musk revealed that the federal government tested him and his company &#8220;for everything&#8221; for a year after he appeared on &#8216;The Joe Rogan Experience&#8221; podcast in 2018.</p>
<p>During the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/elon-musk">tech billionaire&#8217;s</a> appearance Thursday on the &#8220;Full Send&#8221; <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXS_gkWAIs0">podcast</a> with Nelk Boys and John Shahidi, Musk admitted that taking &#8220;like one puff&#8221; of marijuana during <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-rogan">Rogan&#8217;s</a> show wasn&#8217;t the best decision when it came to him and his SpaceX company.</p>
<p>&#8220;I did get a lot of backlash,&#8221; the tech head admitted while laughing. &#8220;Because it&#8217;s still federally illegal.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;It was pretty nutty, actually,&#8221; he added. &#8220;So, I had to have like random drug tests and stuff after that to prove that I&#8217;m not like a drug addict.&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/elon-musks-father-says-hes-not-proud-of-his-son-makes-comments-about-elons-weight-age-in-stunning-interview">Musk</a> revealed that it was the federal government that put him through all the testing because he explained that &#8220;SpaceX has federal government contracts.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;So like the SpaceX competitors were like &#8216;Hey, why aren&#8217;t you doing anything? Look at him &#8230; brazenly smoking weed on Joe Rogan&#8217;s podcast,'&#8221; the Tesla mogul shared.</p>
<p>&#8220;They drug tested me for everything,&#8221; he added. &#8220;Randomly. I couldn&#8217;t like you know pick a day &#8230; I had to have a whole year of random drug tests.&#8221;</p>
<p>When pressed further by the one of the hosts that he must&#8217;ve thought he&#8217;d get some kind of backlash, Musk admitted he didn&#8217;t know it was going to be as bad as it was.</p>
<p>&#8220;The consequences for me and for SpaceX were actually not good,&#8221; the CEO admitted. &#8220;Because it&#8217;s federally illegal &#8230; unfortunately it wasn&#8217;t just me but the whole company. All of SpaceX had to have random drug tests.&#8221;</p>
<p>In 2018, Rogan interviewed Musk in his then-Los Angeles studio, before the podcaster moved to Texas during the pandemic. The state of California legalized recreational cannabis consumption in 2018, <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/08/05/elon-musk-feds-drug-tested-me-after-i-smoked-weed-with-joe-rogan/">The New York Post</a> noted. When video of Musk smoking weed surfaced, Tesla&#8217;s stock price tumbled by as much as nine percent, the outlet reported.</p>
