If your Ear Pods have the microphone attached then it most probably is the same.
If the white insulation piece between the ''tip'' and ''ring 1'' (left audio & right audio in the image) is missing, then there a good chance that there is a s/c (short circuit) between them when you plug it in.
Just as a check, use your Ohmmeter to measure the resistance between the tip and ring 1. It should be ''twice'' the reading that you get between the ''ring 1'' and ''ring 2'' (Ground) (The two earphones being in series connection when you test this way). Any other reading indicates that there is a problem.
Replacement plugs are available on Ebay etc.
Just search for ''TRRS 3.5mm plug'' to get results. (TRRS denotes Tip, Ring 1, Ring 2 & Sleeve as seen from the end of the plug, this differentiates it from a TRS plug, usually used for headphones without a mic option etc.).

If you decide to replace the plug, cut the cable about 50mm from the end of the plug , strip the sheath from the cable back to the plug and then strip the insulation about 5mm from the end of the wires.
Use your Ohmmeter to identify what colour wire goes to what connector in the plug, TRRS. Hopefully you'll be able to identify all of them.
WRITE down the results.
When you know what wire goes where, cut the sheath from the cable coming from the earphones about 50mm from the cut end and then terminate the wires in the replacement plug as per what you have written down. There are a lot of videos on YouTube that show how to terminate 3.5mm plugs.
