Where are the interview podcasts on the following radio network?
iHeartRadio it’s called. If you missed an interview with whatever expert is it all there to just listen not download?

If not there what is a good place to find podcasts?

Spotify has a lot of podcasts you don’t have to download, you can just stream it.

Interviews with let’s say doctors etc?

Downcast is just a podcast catcher. It will catch any podcast that is picked up by any other podcast catcher.

What does that mean @Rarebear?

Okay.
There are two different ways to listen to podcasts. You can go directly to the website and download it from there, or you can use a podcast catcher, or “podcatcher” for short. Most every podcast has what is called an “RSS feed” or “XML feed”. If you have the RSS feed address, and you tell your podcatcher to look for it, the podcatcher will search to see if there is any new podcast. Then it will download it for you. Then, you can listen to them at your leisure.

Some podcatchers, like iheartradio can do more than get podcasts. You can also listen to radio streams.

You dont need to type in the RSS feed address in a podcatcher.
For example, Scott Sigler Audiobook podcast RSS feed is this: http://feeds.feedburner.com/scottsigler

But if you just type in “Scott Sigler” in the search function of whatever podcatcher you use, it will come up. Then you hit “subscribe” and you will subscribe.

Some companies, like NPR have their own app that lump all their podcasts together, but you don’t have to use them.

There are many, many podcatcher apps. Some do more, some do less. I personally like Downcast because it’s just a podcatcher. No extra bells and whistles. But there are many others. Just google search “podcatcher app” or “podcast apps” and all kinds of listsickles will come up.
