I do have itunes but I like to manually download podcasts myself.
For subscribing to podcasts if they have subscribe by email then
I subscribe via that, most of them use mailchimp or feedburner.
Feedburner is part of google so if you have a google account then
you have access to that.
I am unsure if you can post your own casts on there but I should
try and see.

John,
I've used a few of these podcasters but
currently I'm definitely not into podcasts. So, while I can give
you links with the programs I really can't give details. Sorry
:(
Well, let's go.
While using podcasters, I found HermesPod quite good and easy
to use. It's also very light, perhaps your best bet.
There's also Vov
Podcast Downloader. This one will crash a lot but it's
perfectly usable. Some people will say that this is totally
intentional so that you buy the Pro version. I won't say I don't
believe them :)
Lastly, there's Accessible
Podcatcher. As the name suggests, it's indeed accessible.
It's been made for the blind from day one.
However, maybe this isn't the best podcaster among these three
ones. You can try and see what you think, either way.
That's it. Hope this helps a bit :)
Cheers,
Marcio

I find this thread from 2017.

As has been pointed out in that thread, QCast doesn't work
anymore, at least for me it's stopped playing or downloading
unless there's been an update which I doubt. I too don't have a
device, nor do I want to use iTunes because it's clunky garbage,
ditto with the webbIE stuff. QCast worked just fine for me and I
wish it still did. But it doesn't, so here I am. I don't want
Apple anything, I'm not buying a device, and I don't want to do
my own googling for podcasts and chasing down URLs and pasting
them in somewhere and hoping they'll download. Basically, I want
something a lot like QCast, exactly like it if it can be
managed, that actually downloads and plays podcasts. In
particular downloading to folders would be nice, since there was
a podcast for learning Irish flute tunes I want to chase down
again. I thought I'd grabbed a bunch and saved them somewhere
but I'm not finding them, hence the need for a working
podcatcher. I know I've tried a few before, though I can't
remember names, before coming across QCast that weren't really
accessible. This is under Windows 10 if it matters, and latest
NVDA obviously. Anybody have any recommendations?
