The billionaire embraced one of his meme-iest moments on Thursday, sharing someone’s post quipping about the time he puffed on a blunt containing tobacco and marijuana on Joe Rogan’s podcast.
Not everyone was laughing when the episode happened back in September 2018.

The Pentagon also reviewed the security clearance Musk had as chief executive officer of Space Exploration Technologies Corp., a U.S. Defense Department contractor.
Twitter named Musk, 50, to its board this week after he disclosed a more than 9% stake in the social media company, making him the largest shareholder.
