Podcast FAQs

What is a podcast?

A podcast is an audio file distributed over the Internet via RSS feed for playback on a mobile audio device or personal computer.

What do I need to do to get your podcasts?

To subscribe to a podcast, you'll need an RSS reader or aggregator. Searching for "RSS feed readers" on any good search engine will provide a host of options, many of which are provided free. (See side bar for some of the more popular options).

Once you've obtained a reader, click on the button above. You'll get a page with a lot of web code on it, but ignore that and just copy the URL you see in the address bar. Paste this address into the appropriate area of your reader for adding feeds. Your reader should automatically retrieve and display the feed's content.

To hear an individual podcast on your computer, simply click on the button of your choosing. The file should download and begin playing on your computer's media player.
