Yeah, I guess that might be the only way. I've done that before, walking around with my iPhone upside down.

Short of some jailbreak app I'm unaware of, I don't there's any way to pipe your iPod music through the ear piece.
Maybe someone knows some tip I don't ... ?

Versus walking around looking like you're on the phone all the time?

Well if you're hand is covering the back, then no one will know your phone is upside down. They may just find it strange you never say anything into it.
Good advice but keep in mind this thread is from 2009. I doubt they need this anymore.

I would take it even further and be so bold to suggest no one will notice. As people walking around with phones to their heads is no longer unusual. If anything someone may ask where is your phone, these days. If you don't have it out and to your head.
Also as you advance in years, you will become far less concerned what random strangers think. Believe me, I speak from experience.
Well, to be fair, it was dug up with a suggestion that is on topic, so seemly still relevant (although something that feels more like an advertisement in a sense).
In fairness, the OP never acknowledged that he got a satisfactory answer.
For all we know, he's been waiting for one for the past seven years
Just in case OP is still waiting for an answer 13 years later
The app earplay does this for music. I'm still looking for one for podcasts
