These conversations don't have to be listened to on an MP3 player...there are other formats or you can just listen to it from your computer. And it turns out the interviews aren't just with Church Apostles, but that's all I'm downloading for now.
Open up Windows Media Player and have it on the sync page and have the "recently added" file open. Have your mp3 player plugged into your computer.
click on this link:
http://radio.lds.org/programs/conversations?lang=eng or:
go to lds.org
on the lower left choose "Mormon Channel" from the related sites menu
on the upper left click on "Programs"
Then click on "Conversations"
to download an interview to your computer:
right click on the little mp3 symbol next to the episode you want
click on "save link as" and a little box will appear where you can choose the place you want to send the file (downloads)
If the correct location is being shown, click on "save" in the little box (if it's not being shown, hunt for it)
When your file is finished downloading it should appear on the "recently added" list after a few seconds
when your file appears, drag it over to your sync list
click "start sync" on the bottom of the right hand column and wait for all to download and the "You can now disconnect 'Beth's MP3'" to appear before you unplug your mp3 player from the computer.
Pat yourself on the back for doing it without your children having to help you for a change.
Here is a list of current interviews:

Conversations features interviews with people of interest to the LDS community—General Authorities, Auxiliary leaders, and faithful Latter-day Saints. Some are joined by their spouses, who contribute an additional dimension. Each has an interesting story and a unique perspective. These discussions are done in a style which allows the listener to become acquainted with those being interviewed in an informal way. This is particularly interesting with the featured general authorities, who are known to most only in formal settings. Conversations offers advice, wisdom and interesting stories that will lift your spirit and inspire your thoughts.
