Joshua registered his main YouTube channel on December 6, 2009, under the name Zerkaa. Joshua uploaded his first video four days later on December 10, 2009, titled, Spec Ops Series - The Pit (Veteran) w/aMOODIEswede. The video featured Joshua playing Call of Duty: Black Ops with his friend and earned over 100,594 views.

Josh mainly based his content around gameplay videos of himself playing Call of Duty titles till March 2010. Based on a number of growing recommendations from his fans to play other titles, mainly FIFA 10, Josh uploaded a video titled Market Research | FIFA 10 on March 8, 2010. The video served as a poll through which Josh inquired if only a small majority or if a larger majority wanted to see him play FIFA. With over 1,000 likes and 217 comments coming in favor of FIFA, Josh decided to think about soon playing the popular EA video game.

Later that month on March 27, 2010, Josh uploaded a 20-second video of him and his friend playing FIFA which earned over 39,969 views. Josh was convinced that FIFA was one of the other games he could probably try playing apart from CoD and HALO. However, with the release of FIFA 11 on the horizon, Josh decided to wait for the game to release and continued to upload CoD: MW2 content like kills, montages, funnies, and fails.

On Sep 17, 2010, Josh uploaded his video titled FIFA 11 Is Sexy!. The video earned over 166,309 views. Due to this overwhelming response, Josh started playing FIFA regularly and started uploading FIFA content as often as he would upload CoD content.

Since then, Josh consistently uploaded FIFA content with his FIFA Goals series becoming his highly viewed video collection at the time. On April 15, 2011, Josh uploaded a video of him playing Minecraft with his friends. The video is titled Multiplayer Minecraft! E001 | A Quick Tour earned over 44,971 views.

After this Josh played a number of different gaming titles like GTA, FIFA 12, Need For Speed, etc. apart from vlogs and his regular CoD content. Up until late December 2012, the content on the Zerkaa YouTube channel featured all of the aforementioned gaming titles.

On December 22, 2012, Josh uploaded a video titled, Millwall | FIFA 13 Career Mode | E001 | Squad & Transfers. The video featured him playing FIFA 13 and it earned over 115,962 views. Due to the popularity of his FIFA content, Josh got the chance to play with KSI, who at the same time was making a name as a YouTuber himself.

Shortly after starting his FIFA 13 Career Mode series, Josh uploaded a video titled, The End of an Era, on February 5, 2013. The video featured a montage of his Call of Duty: Black Ops gameplay. The video earned over 194,032 views and effectively marked the end of Josh playing the CoD title.

Following this, Josh only uploaded FIFA-related content with some Minecraft videos. As of August 2022, Josh has decided to solely dedicate the Zerkaa channel to uploading Sidemen content, reaction videos, and vlogs.
