Only the metadata will be saved (by [[ArchiveBot]]), the linked podcasts won't be yet. However, ArchiveTeam is planning to build a list of podcast sites from the metadata, and content of those sites will probably be saved in the future.
The metadata was saved through ArchiveBot in job {{Job|cutxsw3n2c1io1mpndog8xalf}}. ({{Job|9psce5n9rvwnnoqm9lf2km7g5}} only retrieved a handful of pages linked from the homepage.) The linked podcasts themselves have not been saved yet.
