'Gone to Pot': CNN Reporter Gets Contact High Covering Colorado Pot Story

"...I found things to be really funny. Much funnier than I normally do. So I think we got a little bit of a contact high there..."

In a must-see-to-believe segment in CNN's “Gone to Pot” series covering the historic legalization of recreational marijuana in Colorado, CNN reporter Randi Kaye interviewed pot entrepreneur “Grandma Barbara," age 72, and took a limousine tour of marijuana dispensaries with a few weed enthusiasts. Unsurprisingly, the fellow passengers on the “Cannabis Tours” trip, enjoyed some now perfectly legal, "small cannon"-size joints. The result was an increasingly giggly CNN reporter who admitted later to Anderson Cooper that she “got a little bit of a contact high..."

When Anderson Cooper asked Kaye how “extensive” her “research” in the back of the limousine was, she laughed and answered,

Kaye: Anderson, it was top notch. We did very [laughs] extensive research, I tell you. My brain was a little fuzzy by the time I got out of there.

Cooper: Really?

Kaye: Oh yeah. I wasn’t thinking right. I couldn’t remember some of the questions I wanted to ask in the interview, which has never happened to me when I’m reporting in the field. And I found things to be really funny. Much funnier than I normally do. So I think we got a little bit of a contact high there...

Cooper: But it was only a contact high, I just want to make that clear there. Is that correct?

Kaye: Yes, it was just a contact high...

CNN “gone to pot,” indeed.
