In addition to Shai Gluskin's awesome response on using Views I
suggest the Pathauto Recipes handbook page [1] which describes how to
make your content aliases work nicely with views.  Specifically the
section about making your patterns match your views to provide
indexes.

For your case you could set the podcast content type pattern in
Pathauto to be "podcasts/[title-raw]" which would create a url like
example.com/podcasts/your-podcast-title which makes the podcasts index
more useful/discoverable for your site visitors.

Greg
