Welcome to episode 268 of Erk Pod. This is a special episode focusing on the overthrow of Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd who was defeated by Julia Gillard. Twitter absolutely exploded on the evening of Wednesday 23 June 2010 with rumors of a leadership challenge of the Australian Labor Party between Kevin Rudd & Julia Gillard. Initially, it could have been described as mere speculation. As the night went on, media coverage grew and there was a late night media conference (VIDEO) by Kevin Rudd saying that there will be a leadership ballot at 9am on Thursday 24 June (VIDEO). At the ballot, Gillard was elected unopposed as leader of the ALP and therefore the Prime Minister of Australia. (VIDEO). Hear Erk’s opinion on this subject as well as the speeches by the outgoing & incoming Prime Minister (audio only). (VIDEO – The Rudd Years)

It is a historic day as Julia Gillard is elected as Australia’s first female PM and first unmarried PM as well.

So what happens now? The Australian Electoral Commission shows the timetable and earliest & latest possible Australian Federal Elections.

AUDIO/VIDEO sources: ABC, Sky News, Macquarie Radio Network

Welcome to episode 87 of Erk FM. Some people think that the number 87 is unlucky because it is 13 away from 100, especially in sport. On this week’s episode of Erk FM, it is lucky for you because these songs are submissions that have been received directly by Erk from the artists or on their behalf.

Erk’s new music podcast is Insomnia Radio: Australia. Joining the Insomnia Radio network of podcasts with several local variations, the show is designed to bring Australian indie & unsigned artists to the world’s attention. Episode 3 is now available for download. Visit my Insomnia Radio: Australia website to listen to all the episodes as well as read some artist profiles. Rest assured though that this podcast does not replace Erk FM which is still going strong and fast approaching episode 100!

At the moment, IR: Australia does not have a fixed release schedule as Erk settles in to the new website and a new way of doing things compared to his system here at Channel Erk. The show is not included in the Channel Erk 5 in 1 feed but Insomnia Radio also has a similar mega feed so you can subscribe to all the shows as well as the IR Daily Dose which is one song per day.
