1. What is a podcast?

A podcast is like a radio show on the internet. You can listen to it at your convenience, by visiting a website, by copying it to your iPod or MP3 player, or by subscribing at the iTunes music store. See the entry on Podcasting at Wikipedia. Enjoy!

2.Do I Need an iPod to Listen?

No. In spite of the name "podcast" you do not need an iPod to listen. You can listen on your computer by clicking the link for the podcast episode at the podcast section of cbhd.org.

Soon after you're connected, you will receive a receive a service update that gives you a host of new features, one of which is Podcaster. (Click here to sign up for TiVo's priority list.)

• Select "Find Podcast"
• Press the green thumbs-up to ensure that it is added to your Favorites
