Hi @Mspivey24 ...

Canvas is not a tool to create podcasts.  Canvas is a Learning Managment System (LMS).  Although it is true that you could record audio within the Rich Content Editor of Canvas to submit as part of a graded assignment, for example, you wouldn't use Canvas to create a podcast channel or any of the podcast "episodes" or audio files within that podcast channel.  I'm sure there is other podcasting software out there that is better suited for something like that.
