I believe that the icon with the red circle emanating from it means that
the podcast has a new / unlistened to podcast.  The icon without the
circle means there are no new episodes, and the down arrow means that
the episode has been downloaded locally to your computer, so you can
listen to those without needing an Internet connection.

I'm not sure if there's an easy pleace for documentation anywhere, but
there might be something in the help files somewhere I'm not aware of.
