(CNN) — Mike Tyson isn't shy about his love for marijuana.

On Monday's episode of his podcast, aptly named "Hotboxin' with Mike Tyson," the former heavyweight champion shared just how much he spends on the psychoactive drug.

"What do we smoke a month?" he asked his co-host, former NFL player turned marijuana advocate Eben Britton. "Is it $40,000 a month?"

"We smoke 10 tons of weed at the ranch a month," Britton said, referencing Tyson Ranch, the boxer's forthcoming 40-acre marijuana farm and "resort."

"Is that crazy?" Tyson asked, though it seemed he already knew the answer.

His guest, rapper Jim Jones, widened his eyes.

"That's a lot of weed," he said. "That's nonstop, every second weed right there."

“Mike Tyson says he burns through $40,000 of weed at his ranch every month”
“We smoke 10 tons of weed at the ranch a month,”

At $2 per pound, he probably draws hundreds of people.

“There is no link between lung cancer and pot. I am not advocating anyone smoke it....but it’s much less harmful than cigarettes.”

That usually draws some interesting replies.

“Don’t smoke no dope when you’re high. It don’t get you no higher, just lower on weed”
I forget who it was that said something like that...

Up in Smoke
-Cheech and Chong

Up in smoke
That’s where my money goes
In my lungs
and sometimes up my nose
When troubled times
Begin to bother me
I take a toke
and all my cares
Go up in smoke

Up in smoke
Donde todos es mi rey
There are no signs
Que dice no fumer
So I roll un “bomber”
Y me doy, un buen toke-ay
Y despues I choke
Y todos mis cares
Go up in smoke
Come on let’s go get high

Up in smoke
That’s where I wanna be
‘Cause when I’m high
The world below
Don’t bother me
When life begins
To be one long
and dangerous road
I take a toke
and all my cares
Go up in smoke

The farm might be cost effective if he fertilizes with pigeon poop.

Mike may be exaggerating a bit.

Perhaps, but you wouldn’t dare say it to his face, now would you?

It takes a lot to keep Mike Tyson mellow.

I know a guy like this. Just an angry big guy all the time unless he smokes some weed on a regular basis; like every hour or two all day long.

I know it sounds counter intuitive. Certainly inhaling resin into your body shouldn’t be good. I am not advocating it at all. Everyone makes their own call on this stuff. Not looking to get into a long, drawn out debate.

The wholesale price for weed is about $35 an oz.
