I recently found a good introduction to Podcast Recording at TechUniversity.  Daniel Desrosiers discusses how to get started recording a podcast using Garageband for the MAC.  Don’t worry if you are using a PC, he has some great advice for any newbie, and it is not at all MAC-centric.  Here’s a synopsis:

What Hardware do You Need?
Microphones, headphones and computers are discussed.

Software?
Professional or Consumer?

Recording, Editing and Production in Garageband
How to use tracks, effects and sharing features.
