I would like to download some podcasts with the intention of putting them on
my Zen USB2 for listening at my convenience. I�m attempting to use MacOS
10.3.9, iTunes 6.0.4. iTunes will play the podcasts just fine, but I can�t
find an option to just download the mp3 files so that I can move them to my
Zen. Is it possible to do what I�m describing? How can I accomplish it? Do I
need to use a different utility? I don�t really want to listen to iTunes
playing the podcasts, I just want to download them quickly.

I'm trying to get Wait Wait Don't Tell Me from the NPR web site:
http://www.npr.org/rss/podcast/podcast_detail.php?siteId=5183214

It has a button that launches iTunes, or a link that you're supposed to
paste into your podcast application:
http://www.npr.org/rss/podcast.php?id=35

If I hit the botton, it lanuches iTunes which proceeds to play the program.
I don't see anyway to just download the program.

Thanks for your help.
