I set up a simple podcasting site for a friend in the fall. Below is roughly
what I did.
1. Create a content type for Podcast Series and a content type for Podcast
Episode.
2. Using CCK and the FileField module allow the episode type to have a file
attachment
3. Using NodeReference allow each episode to reference a single series node
(this may have taken a view to show only Series as nodes to be referenced).
4. Using a view attach, attach a list of all episodes for each series to the
series nodes, this is a view that requires an argument.
5. Using something like the iTunes module create RSS feeds for the views that
you have created in 4.
6. Using something like a custom node.tpl.php for the series content type,
provide a link to the RSS feed for the series.
A bit complicated if you haven't worked with CCK or Views in the past.
HTH,
