Penn State Public Broadcasting

In order to download and listen to WPSU-FM Podcasts you will need to install a Podcasting application.

We recommend the free Pubcatcher software that has been specifically designed just for WPSU and public radio. It supports Apple iPods and other portable mp3 players. It’s available here:

Mac OS X: http://pubcatcher.org/wpsu/Pubcatcher_Installer.dmg
Windows: http://pubcatcher.org/wpsu/Pubcatcher_Installer.exe

If you own and use an Apple iPod we also recommend the iTunes software version 4.9 or better that will support podcasts. It's also free and can be used on either Windows or Macintosh computers. While you can use it to listen to any podcast, the only compatible portable player that it supports is an iPod. It's available here:

http://www.apple.com/itunes/

You can subscribe in iTunes by dragging and dropping the podcast link or icon into the "Podcast" section. Additionally, you can copy and paste the podcast url into the box provided under the Advanced -> Subscribe to Podcast menu.
