Shellcaster is a terminal-based podcast manager.
It provides a terminal user interface (i.e., an ncurses-like interface) to allow users to subscribe to podcast feeds, and sync feeds to check for new episodes.
Episodes may be downloaded locally, played with an external media player, and marked as played/unplayed. Keybindings and other options are configurable via a config file.
This is free and open source software.
