The command you're probably looking for is "gpodder --run", which
updates the feeds and automatically downloads all new episodes.

You just have to look out and be sure to not run two gpodder instances
twice (i.e. the cron job in the background while starting up the GUI),
because this is not yet handled (which doesn't mean it wouldn't work,
but which means the result is undefined ;)

As you said, this is a no-brainer question, maybe it's time to implement
a real FAQ - a feature that the current gPodder website is missing :/
I'm sorry about that. Will add one as time permits. Maybe someone wants
to help out a bit as collection FAQs?
