Hi Bernie,
All a podcast is is an RSS feed that contains a link to a downloadable
music file.
While ther maybe software geared up to specifically handle these RSS
feeds, most readers should be able to handle it.
Personally I use FeedDemon (not freeware though). While I've never used
a podcast I understand this client can handle them and can automatically
download any embedded mp3 files they may contain.

I have no interest in, and no use for, an ipod. BUT: several audio feeds
that used to be available in formats like downloadable mp3 files or
streaming audio or the like appear to be gravititating to being available
only as 'podcasts'. I'm behind the curve on this one [since I've mostly
been ignoring the ipod mania], but I think that what I need is an audio-
analog of a RSS aggregator [which I gather, is called a "podcatcher"].
Any recommendations on a reasonable client I can use for this? It'll
never have to interface to any sort of external device -- all I want is
for it to fetch the feed and leave it someplace on my system where I can
play it with my mp3 player... Thanks!
