More on Podcasts

You can think of a podcast as a TV show that broadcasts a new episode each week. When you subscribe to our “show,” we “broadcast” our latest episode (a digital audio file) to your computer each week, so that you can listen to it immediately or download it to your portable media player. All you need to enjoy our podcasts is a software program like iTunes that can subscribe to and play our audio files.

If you already have podcast software installed on your computer, the “Subscribe using your preferred podcast reader” link should work fine for you; if not, simply right-click (Control-click on Macs) on the “preferred podcast reader” link and select “Copy” or “Copy Shortcut.” Then, launch your podcasting software and paste in our link. If you use iTunes but for some reason you can’t get the “Subscribe using iTunes” link to work, copy the link as described above, then go to the “Advanced: Subscribe to Podcast” menu in iTunes, and paste the link there.

If you need any assistance or have any questions about our podcasts or podcasting in general, please don’t hesitate to contact the Webmaster.
