What is Podcasting?
Podcasting is a great way for you to listen to KNBR
when you want to. It's radio's answer to TiVo. Unlike streaming
radio, which requires real time listening, Podcasting allows
you to control how and when you hear your favorite KNBR sports
segments. It allows you to receive automatic, FREE, downloads
of KNBR content (in mp3 format) directly to your desktop or
laptop computer. Better yet, you can have our Podcasts automatically
loaded on to your iPod or other MP3 player.
Do I have
to have an iPod?
No, Podcasts work on almost all mp3 players but by using
iTunes and an iPod, you have the easiest possible access
to our KNBR Podcasts. If all you want to do is listen
from your computer, you don't even need a portable mp3:
Just click on the desired Podcast and listen via iTunes
or Windows Media Player. It's that easy.

Why We Recommend
iTunes & The iPod
Until now, searching for Podcasts was like scanning for radio
stations in a strange city — except you’d be browsing
thousands of Podcasts on the Internet. And if you wanted to
subscribe to a Podcast, you needed additional software to
keep everything up to date. There had to be an easier way.
Enter iTunes, with built-in Podcast support. Now, subscribing
to KNBR Podcasts is easier than ever. If you have iTunes 4.9
or higher, just click on the "Add To iTunes" button
below. It will launch iTunes and take you directly to the
KNBR subscription page.
Now you can easily find and subscribe to KNBR
podcasts from one of the largest directories on the web —
the iTunes Podcast Directory. Once you subscribe to the KNBR
Podcasts, iTunes automatically checks for updates and downloads
new episodes to your computer. When you sync your iPod or
other mp3 player, all your KNBR Podcasts come along for the
ride. You get KNBR on-demand radio, delivered automatically
over the Internet.
How to get your Podcasts into your non
iPod MP3 Player
Open Explorer and navigate to the file shown below. The folder
named "Your Podcasts" will be the name of the Podcast
you have subscribed to. Your file structure may be slightly
different than the representation below. Once there, copy
the the mp3 Podcasts to the directory that contains your music
files and transfer them to your portable mp3 player as you
would transfer any song. That's all there is to it.
