I did test this on iTunes and it all seems to be working correctly.

The last podcast my itunes downloaded was 10/21/2010. Ever since then I have had an error symbol next to the Astronomy.com Folder, and no podcast. I like getting these podcasts, but do not want to threaten my music collection by fighting with it.
Hey guys at Astronomy Mag., can you get this working again?

I had to completely REMOVE iTunes and all associated files before I could get my Podcast. Now, I am faced with the same situation. My iPhone will not download them either. It doesn't recognize the formatting.
