Help with my iPod?

Ok, I have an iPod Video 30 GB, and I can't download podcasts! I have about 4 or 5 on my computer and I can play them using iTunes, and when I view my song list of what I have on my iPod (viewing it from the computer) it shows the podcasts to be in my list and on my iPod. But when I unplug my iPod from the computer and go to podcasts on the iPod itself, there isn't anything there! Please help! I asked a similar question before, and some people said I needed to be sure the podcasts were downloaded to my computer, that I wasn't just subscribed to the show... Well how do I do that? And also, Once I have them downloaded, the people said I have to be sure I synched them with my iPod, How do I do THAT??? :)

Thank you to all that answer!

Update:

Thank you so much to ignorance_is_bliss!!! Your answer helped so much! I have the podcasts on my iPod, but now, my problem is that the Video itself does not come up. I just plays the soundtrack for the podcast. :( Please help if anyone knows what to do for THIS problem... :)

    Ok, you need some serious ipod help! I am here to save the day. Ok, so the same thing happened to me. I have an ipod nano and I tried to get TV shows on my ipod, but they just never showed up! So, I figured out that my ipod is not programmed to be able to play TV shows. So, your ipod is probably not programmed to play podcasts.

    Another way to make sure this is right is, when you plug in your ipod and its putting alll of your new music onto it, up comes the little downloading tab on the side bar. This is the window that tells you what is being downloaded and what you want on your ipod. If there is a podcasts section here, clik on it and change the settings. But, if there is no podcast section, that means that your ipod is not programmed to play podcasts.

    Hope I was of help! :)

    Hi, I suggest you another way to find free iPOD videos/music. It's TubeHunter which can download videos/audios from over 20 video sharing webs, and import all downloaded videos into iPOD.
