I just made a crappy little podcast the other day and am looking for suggestions on how to make it better.

A podcast is simply a recording that's been put online. A few things that can make this easier on yourself and the listeners is remembering what all is needed and not needed. For instance, you DON'T need stereo unless you have a guest and want better sound staging. You also don't need a compression rating of 320Kbps at 48,000Hz. 40Kbps @ 16,000Hz is just fine.
