A podcast is like radio on-demand.
It is audio (or video) that is delivered automatically to your computer through a free subscription. This page provides two ways to listen to the audio provided:
1) Just click on the image labeled "audio mp3" to listen to the corresponding presentation.
2) Use a "podcast receiver" on your computer. Many services, like podcasts.yahoo.com let you manage your podcasts online. Others, like the popular iTunes, have podcasting integrated into their program. Both the aforementioned services have directories that will help you find content you like.
Notice, we didn't say you need an ipod; because you do not need an ipod. You can use a mobile device (like an ipod) if you wish, but it is not required and you can easily listen to the podcast right on your computer.
