A podcast is RSS text that contains a link to an mp3. It's usually automatically downloaded, using some sort of podcast utility, to a portable media device like an iPod (hense the name "Podcast").
However, as mp3s, podcast files can be played on computers and burned onto audio CDs - iPods and other portable media players are not required. And since the content is downloaded at any given time, it isn't "broadcasted," either. Thus, "podcast" is a misnomer, even though it is universally recognized.
