Peter Austin, also known by his username, SuperDuck, is one of the three Vidiots and a content producer for the Yogscast. He originally worked for WhatCulture as a presenter and editor but moved to the Yogscast with Michael Johnson and Ben Potter after becoming disgruntled with the network. Before this however, he may have been known to Yognaughts for his Jingle Jam remixes created under his SuperDuck pseudonym.
Throughout the year of 2018, Peter Austin, along with his co-hosts Ben Potter and Michael Johnson, worked together to create about 315 videos for the Vidiots Youtube channel. The channel saw an incredible amount of fan engagement due to the creative, likeable, and entertaining content Peter and his co-hosts created.
In November of 2018, the channel's hosts released a video explaining their current contract with the Yogscast would be coming to an end and the channel would not be continuing to create content on a regular basis due to it not being financially viable. Fortunately, the trio had decided to keep the spirit of Vidiots alive by continuing to produce content during their free time such as episodes of Podiots and occasional livestreams.
In 2019, Peter Austin and Ben Potter started their own Youtube Channel with the help of Adam Pacitti and his channel, Cultaholic. At the time of writing, Ben and Peter's channel, TripleJump, has amassed over 250,000 subscribers and has a full team of writers and editors working to create entertaining and informative content about the video games industry.
