I mean not audio, the entry that was on there. Now to figure out what to do to get it so I can post by E-mail, that would be cool, but one thing at a time.

I'm beginning to think this may be well over your head. From your cpanel setup, there is probably an option to "install" these additional scripts like Word Press and whatever else your hosting provider offers. IE, if you are with Ultrahost, then you have a Fantastico option which installs Wordpress and a number of other scripts by choice. Whatever the case, if Word Press can be installed via a script through cpanel, that installation effort will do most of the work. It will populate the target directory with index.php and a whole bunch of other files to make it all work. It will also build a MySQL database to hold the content. After installation, you will need to go through the administrative menus and set what options you may want. They are pretty self explanatory and Word Press has links to a very comprehensive manual that is a *MUST READ* to get you going.
For your audio files, I would create a separate directory off your root which is totally separate from the blog scripts. Your posts can link to these files just like any other website. For an example of how these posts can be built in WP, take a look at my blog, http://www.holmesgrown.com/blogs and just read through the few possibly boaring articles and you will notice the links to my podcast episodes.
When finally ready for actual podcasting, this blog script will generate the RSS feed for you every time you post and any linked audio files will be marked inside enclosure elements for all good podcatchers to find.:)
