Yea I had to complete the first part to see the second part. Sorry I understand now.

So basically you have the function working. So now you need to echo out the podcast['title'] and podcast['website']. So below the function create a foreach loop using the function and output the titles and website.

<?php

echo '<ul>';
foreach (get_podcasts() as $podcast) {
        echo "<li>" . $podcast['title'] . " " . $podcast['website'] . "</li>"; 
    }
echo '</ul>';

You should also put you're pdo call in a try catch block.
