Podcasts are audio files of City Club programs that you can
download and listen to at any time on your computer or portable player. Using
free software, you can automatically download the latest audio files and import
them into many audio players, including iTunes and Windows Media Player.
You may click on this icon to see a list of all the podcasts
published by City Club.
Podcasting is a term that means downloadable audio plus
RSS/XML data describing the audio files. You don't need to purchase an iPod
portable player or iTunes (a digital jukebox) to use podcasting.
Here's how easy it is to use:
-
First, you'll need to download and install the right software to 'subscribe' to
our audio. Some software available includes
iPodder, Doppler,
iPodderX and Primetime
Podcast Receiver. There are many others — search for 'podcast
software' or 'media aggregator rss' to find even more options. Many RSS readers
that support processing enclosures can be used with this service. Version 4.9
of Apple's iTunes software
can subscribe to podcasts without any of the above programs.
-
Once you've got a program installed, give the program the following feed
address: http://www.cityclub.org/content/podcasts/CityClubPodcast.xml
or just right-click on the
icon and copy the link location into your podcast software.
-
In iTunes
(version 4.9 or later) you can either drag that button into the program's main window,
copy and paste the URL above into the 'subscribe to podcast' box found under
the Advanced menu, or subscribe to the City Club podcast through the iTunes
Music Store.
-
Your podcast software will check to see if we've uploaded new
material, and automatically download the files and insert them into your
media player software when you are connected to the internet. Most podcast programs will also let you choose to simply
place the downloaded files in a folder — a good option if you'd prefer to
manage the files yourself.
-
Feedback: Tell us how we're doing. Do the files sound all right to you?
Do they download OK? What other programs would you like to hear? Send a note to
and tell us what you think.
