- Snoop Dogg, who smokes marijuana around Martha Stewart a lot, called her "the secondhand queen."
- He smokes up to 25 joints a day and influenced Stewart to get into the CBD business.
- Stewart says medical marijuana is "sorely needed" and "should be more acceptable than it is."
Martha Stewart spoke to her longtime friend Snoop Dogg about his decades-long weed-smoking habit on the first episode of her new iHeartRadio podcast and revealed that being around his secondhand smoke actually makes her feel "fabulous."
"Snoop does smoke quite a bit," she told listeners at the 13-minute mark. "Can you tell me how many of those special cigarettes you smoke a day?" she asked him.
"When I'm shooting television, maybe about 15 a day," said the rapper, who plays Pastor Swift on the Starz drama "BMF." He said when he's "making music" he can smoke "probably about 25" and called Stewart "the secondhand queen."
"I make sure she gets all the secondhand smoke," Snoop said. And while Stewart said she had not "taken up the habit" on her own "yet," she raved about her "fabulous" secondhand experiences.
"I must tell you, it makes me feel really good," she said. "It does not disturb my concentration. In fact, I think it makes it even better and it doesn't make me tired or any of the things people say marijuana does to you. It's fantastic, I think it's great."
The two also spoke about the benefits of cannabis for medicinal purposes. Snoop told Stewart he was inspired to invest in the medical marijuana industry after losing several people he loved to cancer and seeing a need for pain relief. He said he has plans to make medicated CBD creams "stronger" and "better" to help those in need.
"Snoop actually influenced me to get into the CBD business," said Stewart. She has a line of CBD gummy products at Canopy, a company that Snoop introduced her to. She said stronger options are "sorely needed" and that medical marijuana "should be more acceptable than it is right now."
Stewart and Snoop have been close friends for years and cohosted "Martha & Snoop's Potluck Dinner Party" on VH1 from 2016 to 2018. In a recent interview with Insider promoting her podcast, the lifestyle expert revealed that when she goes to a party, the first thing people ask her is "how is Snoop Dogg."
"The Martha Stewart Podcast" is now available on streaming services. You can listen to Stewart and Snoop's full conversation below.
