I was surprised to see a Spanish translation for blog (bitácora) and now I'm wondering if podcast has a Spanish translation too. Thank you!

El término podcast surge como contracción (llamada portmanteau en algunos ámbitos) de las palabras Pod (personal on demand) y broadcast (transmisión)

el podcasting

One of those technical terms that is used, but not officially adopted into the language yet. Whether it ever is, depends on whether the technology persists or goes the way of BetaMax, being replaced by other or newer technology.

La palabra podcast no está en el Diccionario.

I listen to a podcast in Spanish and the creators call it a... "podcast." Es masculino.

Que yo sepa, no existe equivalente en español, ni para podcast, ni para "podcasting."
