Darn! Missed it! I'll have a listen to the Podcast later on though to catch up - thanks for the heads up :)

Missed it too!

What`s a `podcast` by the way?
Is it something to do with an ipod or is it like an article on a website?
Can anybody access one?

as I understand it, a podcast is a broadcast that you can download into your computer, and designed to be listened to on an Ipod thingummyjigger,
BUT there is also something called "replay" on the BBC site, which allows you to listen to it on your computer (as long as you've got speakers)

Here's the link to today's programme! - http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/factual/foodprogramme.shtml

If you have i-tunes you can listen to the downloaded podcast through the computer, without needing an i-pod, also when you subscribe to a podcast it will download it automatically, though you can't always subscribe to them.
