Source – Lost Tape (2017)

This is a new tape for a long lost episode, missing from the archive for almost 19 years. Jake is promoting the short lived UPN series ‘Shasta McNasty’ and making his first known appearance on CLL, he returns to the show two more times, once in 2000 and then his final visit to the show in 2003. Adam talks to Jake about drumming and learning from a musician who frequently worked with John Hiatt, they discuss Jake’s father Gary Busey and Adam’s experience filming a pilot with Gary in 1998. The episode is nearly 100% complete, just missing a few seconds from their discussion about the transition of Ron Howard and first call of the second hour. Jake already taped an episode of the MTV show prior to this recording.
