I tested the following to make sure it still works. This is from the book
Kindle: The Mini Missing Manual:

In addition to listening to your MP3s, you can also listen to your favorite
podcasts on your Kindle.
Note: Podcasts are like portable radio programs. The broadcasters record their shows
into MP3 files that you can just download and listen to at your leisure. Usually,
you can download these straight from the broadcaster website or you can browse a
huge selection of them in the iTunes Music Store.
The vast majority of podcasts are available in MP3 format, which means they can play
on the Kindle just fine. But if you load them into the Music folder on your Kindle,
they’ll play in the same way your music plays: no rewinding, no selecting tracks,
and no progress indicators. With music that might be okay, but podcasts aren’t just
background music. Listening to a podcast is more like watching a TV show; you set
time aside to focus on it. The standard music player in the Kindle doesn’t really
cut it.
Remember back in Chapter 4 when you read about audiobooks from Audible.com? On the
Kindle, audiobooks get this handy little interface with dedicated buttons on the
screen to control the playback of the book. This interface would work great for a
podcast.
Here’s the cool part: you can use the Kindle’s audiobook feature with any podcast
file. It will show up in your book list just like an audiobook and will play just
like an audiobook.
The only thing you need to do is copy the file to the Documents folder instead of
the Music folder. The podcast appears in your book list ready for you to play.
If you copy a podcast file to your Documents folder instead of your Music
folder, your Kindle treats the podcast just like an audiobook.
Tip: If you really want easy access or the audiobook playback screen for a particular
song, you can give it the audiobook treatment, too. Copy it to your Documents folder
and this trick works the same for your song. But don’t use this for your whole music
library because songs won’t play sequentially and your songs will fill up your book
list.

The Kindle browser is not accessible, so web pages and the like cannot be read at this time.
