To subscribe, you need a podcatcher—software that can go out and grab all the podcasts you choose. iTunes is a great option for both Mac and PC users, and Odeo is a great web-based alternative. With either of these, you can subscribe to to podcasts and listen on your computer. For podcasts to go, you need to sync your podcasts to an iPod or other portable digital audio player.

Listen Online

To listen to this streaming audio, you need the Flash player plugin. Fortunately, you probably already have it (over 90% of browsers do). If not, it’s quick and easy to get the Flash Player or update an old copy.

Download
If you prefer, download individual episodes:

After you download the file, you will need to unzip it. Recent versions of Windows and Mac have zip utilities built in (Windows: right-click file icon and choose Extract. Mac: double-click file icon). Otherwise, you can use WinZip or StuffIt.
After the file is unzipped, double-click the file icon to play the podcast in your computer’s default mp3 player. If you have no software to play mp3 files, consider downloading iTunes (for either Windows or Mac).
What is a podcast?
You can think of it like a radio broadcast over the internet. Unlike a regular audio file, you can subscribe to what’s called a podcast feed and have your computer automatically download new episodes which you can listen to at your convenience.
Do I need an iPod?
Not at all. You can listen to a podcast on any digital audio player or any computer with audio player software.
