I have be grappling with this issue for a over a year.  Search "WFMU"
for my feeble attempts to get AlienBBC to work with the WFMU current
archive streams.  I have had a couple exchanges with Kenzo, who
maintains the WFMU web site (I'm glad to see he checks in here). 
Here's what I know:

You can paste any one of the archive URLs or now playing URL into the
"Tune in URL" box of Squeezecenter.

You can't access the streams by pasting the RSS feed for the recent
archives into the podcasts section because the WFMU feed deliberately
doesn't provide downloadable podcasts as kenzo mentioned.

One solution would be to write an html page scraper that that turns the
recent archive page into a play list.  Once I'm done raising my five
children, ages 16 to 2 months, I'll take a crack at that :).

Another solution would be for the recent archives page at WFMU to use
invariant URLS like:
http://www.wfmu.org/listen.m3u?show=billkelly&archive=mostrecent

instead of:
http://www.wfmu.org/listen.m3u?show=27145&archive=42596

Then we could keep that URL in our favorites list in Squeezecenter.
