Ok, so what I would really like to do is sync the podcasts I have on my PC to my Android phone, BUT I'd also like to sync what episode and how far I am into the episode I am. Is this even possible?

    I wouldn't think it would be worth the effort in syncing the downloaded files - a podcast is literally just a list of download URLs with some metadata, probably simpler to just re-download the file. I guess I could see that being a problem if you are on a very restrictive internet plan, but podcast files episodes are typically quite small

      Well the reason I ask that, probably annoyingly, is because I listen to them on Rhythmbox when I'm at home. So I was hoping there would be an easy way to just sync it all up to my phone, but I'm guessing there's not really a way after looking through the suggestions here and searching google for solutions. I'll give the suggestions made here a go and if I can't get it to work properly, I can always just move the files over and remember what episode I am on. (This podcast is 200+ episodes and 20GBs in size.)
