Most of the late-night TV talk shows are on a hiatus right now as a result of the Olympics. But Bill Simmons continues to churn out new episodes of Any Given Wednesday with Bill Simmons on HBO, and on Wednesday night, he invited two special guests, Seth Rogen and Ricky Williams, to the show to discuss a topic that is near and dear to both of their hearts: weed.

During what he called a "Weed Round," Simmons fired off a bunch of marijuana-related questions to the two weed aficionados and had them talk about everything from whether or not they’ve ever tried synthetic weed to their favorite weed movies. And they had absolutely no problem coming up with a bunch of really interesting answers for Simmons as they spent more than six minutes discussing one of their favorite topics in the world. It ended up being one of the best Any Given Wednesday segments Simmons has produced thus far (even better than that wild one with Ben Affleck). Here’s just a sample of what you can expect from the clip above…

Most surprising celebrity you’ve ever smoked weed with?

SR: I got to say—and he’s in the movie and it’s a shout out to Sausage Party—Edward Norton.

Former President you would love to smoke weed with if you could?

RW: Teddy Roosevelt. He just seemed like a cool, wild guy.

Strangest edible form of weed you’ve ever had?

RW: I used to cook stir fry with it. I used to put it in butter and use the butter to sauté vegetables and do stir fry.

Bonus story from Rogen about the time he went to see The Matrix after taking mushrooms:

I freaked out. I took shrooms and saw the first Matrix movie when it came out. It was a horrible idea. I instantly regretted it. I didn’t know what was happening. I got lost. It was in one of these giant, like, 27-theater megaplexes. I wound up in 10 Things I Hate About You. I hallucinated my friend was making out with the girl I liked, and I yelled at them and then walked out of the theater, and it was not happening in any way, shape, or form. It was a really dark day for me.
