"What am I supposed to do with this?" Morgan enquired when passed a marijuana cigarette by the boxer. "Smoke it!" was the effusive reply.
The 54-year-old Morgan took a puff of the joint, prompting Tyson to cheer and raise his hands aloft.
Elaborating on the podcast in a column for the Mail on Sunday, Morgan said: "I found him sitting on a sofa in his offices near Manhattan Beach, smoking a massive spliff.
"As our chat wound up, I picked up one of the remaining spliffs on the table, looked at Tyson and said: 'When in Rome, Champ… got a light?'
"He exploded with laughter as he passed me a lighter and carried on roaring as I lit up the joint and took a long – legal! – puff."
