This is a 3 part series recorded on 3 separate beaches. These episodes were originally recorded for Erk Pod in June 2008.  Echo 31 was recorded on Avoca Beach on the NSW Central Coast. It was originally recorded for Erk Pod as episode 112. It features Erk, Erk Pod co-host Drue and BJ the Research Guy. It was an awful day but we decided to record anyway after recording on the beach was mentioned on Erk Pod.

Echo Romeo Kilo One One – episode 30. Final daily episode for NaPodPoMo. Yay Erk!

Welcome to the final daily episode of Echo Romeo Kilo One One.

The final daily episode for NaPodPoMo as far as Erk is concerned! And to finish off these daily episodes, Erk goes out in style and has a chat with Shawno and Jen from Inside My Nonsense Shawnogram (ok, you know Shawno and Jen and their shows by now right, folks!). After chatting with Shawno and Jen about a range of topics (as usual!), Erk gets a bit soppy and thanks everyone to conclude the daily Echo Romeo Kilo One One. Echo will be back in a weekly outdoor format. Subscribe to the Echo feed via iTunes or www.echoromeokilooneone.com

And with that, boys and girls, sees me on the podium spraying champagne (ok, ok, sparkling white wine!) everywhere celebrating the end of the war against Nannapoopoo! I’m sure the rest of the Erk Pod Podcasting Commando Team will be joining me here soon on day 30 of NaPodPoMo!

Welcome to episode 24 of NaPodPoMo’s Echo Romeo Kilo One One. On this episode:

NOTE: There was uploading FAIL. If you listened to this episode when it first came out, you might have heard the wrong episode.

  • No mystery or guest voice today. Instead we hear various emergency related calls. Firstly we have ads from the Triple Zero emergency call service here in Australia. We then cross to Wales for a 999 call and then across to the US for some wacky 911 calls (albeit calls to 911 that did not need to be made) as listed on http://www.911callers.com
  • Erk crashes the Australian Idol Finale rehearsal at the Sydney Opera House and walks around Circular Quay.

Welcome to episode 22 of Echo Romeo Kilo One One. In this episode:

  • Massive episode of FAIL. We almost had no mystery voice for today but Jim (aka @rockeye) stepped in at the last minute. We had memory card and Skype FAIL but still talked about football, UK TV, running and the wrong type of leaves on the train tracks.
  • Erk takes you on a ferry ride from Manly to Circular Quay. Part 2 will follow tomorrow with a walk around the Sydney Harbour foreshore and part 3 will be the return ferry trip.

In this episode:

  • Erk & Luke are recording live on King Street at Newtown very early in the morning after a night of Trivia (WE WON!) and karaoke.
  • While Luke and I were standing on the corner of King Street and Enmore Road, we were joined by Mute MC from local hip hop band Reverse Polarities. We found out that he was from South Africa originally and has 5 nipples. It was an interesting and on the edge short discussion.
  • After farewelling everyone, Erk goes for a walk to his car on King Street.
  • Over the last few hours, there was a heavy storm and Erk talks a bit about that doing a commentary on the way home.
  • Erk was trying to mention Stilgherrian Live about 3 times but kept seeing things that got him distracted. “Stil Live & Confused” as I call it is on the edge multimedia live show at 9.30pm Thursday nights Sydney time.
  • Due to the fact that Erk has finished the on the job special, today’s train segment was Erk talking about driving trains in wet weather.
  • 2am on the 20th and the show is in the can! And I didn’t need to find a guest for today after all! Luke appeared a few Echos ago so I still needed an extra voice. (But I’d have Luke on a podcast anytime I can get him!)
