It's still a little rough around the edges but did download its subscription files. I tried adding wtopnews.com/podcast/611200.rss to the subscription file but it wouldn't download that rss. It's compressed with .gz so this may not be available to podracer just yet. Two other rough edges oof note. 1) the directory was created for the next day's podcasts but no podcasts were downloaded into it. It could be the crontab suggestion in podracer README is incorrect. Oddly enough though running podracer once the crontab entry was installed didn't appear to take over the computer as happened when subscription list podcasts were downloaded the first time the proram started up.
