443 - Life Is A Highway - The CoverUp
Episode 443
Monday, 22 June, 2026

Great lessons to learn from one of the all-time road songs, a cover that understands the assignment more than the song — oh, and Rich flubs his kids' birthdays, but that's OK, because we only recorded this on Father's Day. Life Is A Highway, originally by Tom Cochrane, covered by Rascal Flatts. Outro music is Another One Rides The Bus by Weird Al Yankovic.
