If you don't wish to subscribe to the podcast, you can access the audio by downloading the files manually:

• From outside the Library
  Right-click on any audio link and choose Save file as (PC), or control click and choose Save file as (MAC). You can choose to save the file to your computer, from where you can transfer it to another device, or directly to a media player.
  
• From public workstations within the Library
  Left-click on any audio link. This will open and play the file in Windows Media Player. From within Windows Media Player you must then choose File > Save Media As. This will give you the option to download the file to a portable media device.
