Some explanation of Podcasts & RSS feeds
Podcasts are simply audio files available for download using the Internet. Podcasts generally can segment a particular topic, allowing the listener to select just the segment they want to hear. When podcasts include an RSS feed, a listener can have an automated program on their computer let them know when something new of interest is added to the downloadable selections.
RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. This is just a standard way to communicate the content available through such a feed.
Many computer programs can ‘understand’ an RSS feed. For example, browsers like Internet Explorer 7 and Firefox will handle the feed. There are many programs know as news readers or RSS readers that you can use as well. Many of these programs, including Apple’s iTunes will work with your MP3 player (iPods) to automatically download new segments and copy them to your MP3 device when next connected.
Some RSS readers available:
From your browser:
Firefox - you will see this icon 
in the address bar for a page that contains an RSS feed. Click on this icon in the address bar to have Firefox set a 'Live Bookmark' for the feed.
Internet Explorer 7 or later - Click on the or 
icon to have the browser set a subscription to the feed within the bookmarks.
Internet Explorer 6 or earlier - Use an RSS reader program.
Safari - Click on the RSS icon in the address bar to set subscription.
