You have to set a session-wide environment variable:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables#Session-wide_environment_variables

Or a system-wide environment variable:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables#System-wide_environment_variables

Or edit the .desktop file of gPodder:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables#Launching_desktop_application_with_an_environment_variable

In all cases, the variable name is GPODDER_DOWNLOAD_DIR, and the variable value
is the path to the download directory.
