Erk Pod | Experimental Scootering Around Newcastle | Attempt 2
<p>On this episode, Eric takes you for a ride on his scooter around his adopted hometown, Newcastle (NSW, Australia). For the second time time, he has attached a Insta360 X4 camera that records 360 degree views. In post production, different views can be selected. There is a learning curve for the camera and editing on the phone and PC versions of the editing software. The camera is clamped to a handlebar of the scooter.Attached to his motorcycle helmet is a Cardo Spirit HD headset which is connected to the camera via Bluetooth. A microphone and speaker are attached inside the helmet.There were lessons learnt from the first recording on the previous day which will feature on this episode. Many motorcyclists on YouTube use this method to share content recorded while riding which allows them to capture the view and also record their thoughts as they are riding. On this episode, Eric scooters to and from the Hunter Ice Skating Stadium from inner Newcastle. It is a good test for this scooter because he has not ridden along this route before riding his newer 2024 model scooter. Episode recorded on Sunday 17 August 2025 which is coming towards the end of the Australian winter season.<strong>BRIEF HISTORY OF ERK POD & CHANNEL ERK PODCASTS (2007 - 2014) AND VIDEO CONTENT (2016 - PRESENT)</strong>Erk Pod started as an audio podcast, produced in Australia. It started in 2007 focused on the the Australian version the reality TV series called Big Brother. This podcast was called Erk To The Diary Room. After this series was over, episodes became known as Erk Pod. After all, his nickname since primary school was Erk and it was a podcast. Erk Pod grew it's audience with either solo episodes, interviews or group shows with guests and a co-host. The guests would be either people that Erk or others involved knew personally or other podcasters & online personalities. Over time, Erk Pod was joined by other spin off shows called Erk FM, Erk FM: Australia, Erk FM International, Erk FM: Metal Monday which were music podcasts based on unsigned & underground artists. They were often obtained from what was called pod safe music or Creative Commons music.A few years in, Erk's mother joined in to the podcasting space. Blast From The Past became a son/mother inter-generational remembrance & story based talk show. Later, a spin-off music show called Judy's Blast FM hosted by Judy and produced by Erk joined Channel Erk Podcasts. Due to various issues including changing priorities and the ill health of Judy led to the end of Erk Pod and the other Channel Erk Podcasts ended in 2014. Since then, Eric became involved in ice hockey but also started to produce video content on YouTube including Simulated Erk (gaming) and A Mountain Of Work (real life transport videos). Against the odds and totally unexpected by the host himself, Erk Pod is back in 2025 in video form. This can also be enjoyed as an audio podcast.There will be various features and segments included over time with no set schedule. <strong>LINKS FOR RELATED CONTENT BY ERIC BROOK:</strong><strong>Channel Erk Podcasts </strong>| @erkpod2025 on YouTube | http://channelerkpodcasts.com<strong>Erk Pod podcast RSS</strong>: https://anchor.fm/s/1040fd354/podcast/rss<strong>Simulated Erk Gaming</strong> | @simulatederk on YouTube | http://simulatederkgaming.com<strong>A Mountain Of Work</strong> | @amountainofwork on YouTube | http://amountainofwork.com<strong>NTL Sticker Collective</strong> | http://ntlstickercollective.com.au/democracymanifest<strong>SPECIAL OFFER FROM NTL STICKER COLLECTIVE:</strong> </p><p>Use discount code <strong>ERKPOD10</strong> at checkout for 10% off any purchase from the Democracy Manifest/Succulent Chinese Meal collections <strong>HOCKEY LINKS:</strong><strong>Australian Ice Hockey League (AIHL)</strong> | http://theaihl.com<strong>AIHL TV (subscription)</strong> | http://aihl.tv</p>

Erk Pod | Around The World With Earthcam TV
<p>On this episode, Eric discusses one of the newest things for him, using a VPN with servers outside of his home country of Australia. He discovers the difference between using Australian websites & social media without a VPN and compares that using a VPN to tell his computer that he is in other countries including the UK and Canada. Then he looks at webcams including using a website called Earthcam TV where viewers can alternate between selected live webcams. Moving from one side of America to the other as the sun sets on Monday while Eric is in Australia on Tuesday morning, there are a variety of cameras to observe live. Moving away from EarthCam TV, Eric features SydSquad. Syd Squad are a group of aviation enthusiasts who provide streams from various vantage points from around Sydney International Airport. There are two separate videos featured showing the difference between a night stream and a day time stream. SydSquad have just celebrated 150k subscribers. Eric also shares some news about Australian ice hockey including his commentary debut at international level in mens ice hockey as America played Canada in a exhibition game in Newcastle. </p><p><u><strong>Hockey game links:US v Canada July 2025: </strong></u></p><p>https://www.youtube.com/live/bKnzjmmss7E?si=F3VPqz8woAqmpkjP</p><p><u><strong>Streams featured:</strong></u>EarthCam TV: https://www.earthcamtv.com/Fox 10 Phoenix Chicago River webcam: https://www.fox10phoenix.com/webcams-chicago-riverSydSquad: https://www.youtube.com/@SydSquad <strong>BRIEF HISTORY OF ERK POD & CHANNEL ERK PODCASTS (2007 - 2014) AND VIDEO CONTENT (2016 - PRESENT)</strong>Erk Pod started as an audio podcast, produced in Australia.
